This study presents a comparative analysis of how Korean and Thai living culture based on food, clothing and housing was reflected in their respective languages with the presupposition that language reflects culture. When linguistic culture of Korean and Thai languages relating to food, clothing and housing is reviewed, for clothing culture, there is a difference in shapes between Korean and Thai clothing due to weather difference as well as a difference in royal family and Buddhist culture between the two countries. For food culture, Korea has developed a food culture centering on rice, kimchi and salted fish, leading to a diverse development of corresponding vocabularies. Meanwhile, in Thailand, food culture centering on rice and fish has developed, and vocabularies on food eaten by royal families and monks have been developed in a diverse way. For housing culture, in Korea, there are diverse kinds of residences according to building methods and shapes, leading to a corresponding vocabulary development. In Thailand, residences differ in their names depending on their occupants’ social position and status. This research is believed to be of great help to Thais who learn Korean language, and to Koreans who learn Thai in having an in-depth understanding of Korean linguistic culture and Thai linguistic culture.
