초록

Native speakers of seven different languages, i.e. Korean, Chinese, Japanese, German, Spanish,English, and French, were consulted to ascertain what occupation names can be used as titles or address terms in a given language. The overall result shows that the languages spoken in Eastern society, which emphasizes hierarchical differences between people, use occupation names as titles and address terms more often than do the languages spoken in Western society,which emphasizes equality between people. Linguistic differences, such as word order and the type of adposition phrase, were also found to play an important role in determining the linguistic structure of titles and address terms.
