Abstract
This study aims to analyze the origin and grammatical characteristics of Korean vocabulary derived from Japanese. Drawing on the framework of historical linguistics, the article examines the historical context that led to lexical borrowing, the integration of these words into the Korean grammatical system, and their role in modern communication. This research not only clarifies the process of linguistic assimilation but also contributes to a deeper understanding of the historical and linguistic relationship between Korea and Japan.
