◇ Announcer Choi Hwi (hereinafter Choi Hwi): Open Radio YTN, this time it's media language time to reinterpret the language in the media. Let's invite Shin Dong-kwang, who is serializing the etymology column "Malok Holmes" series in Maeil Economy. Hello, writer.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang (hereinafter referred to as Shin Dong-kwang): Yes. How have you been?

◇ Choi Hwi: Writer, first of all, happy new year.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Yes, I hope you have a year full of joy and health, too.

◇ Choi Hwi: You prepared today's topic, impeachment after the emergency martial law, and other pending terms. It has already been a month since the emergency decree was announced on December 3rd. I have a lot of questions. Looking at it in chronological order, I think it will help the listeners understand. Can you explain the emergency protocol first?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Emergency martial law means 'military rule'. It's made up of 'no rain, no ordinary, no protection, no harsh' which means 'protecting harshly in a different emergency than usual'. The dictionary meaning is "an emergency governance system declared by the president when the normal operation of the state is impossible due to an urgent and serious crisis such as war and civil war, and the social order is extremely unstable." The martial law commander manages all administrative and judicial affairs within the martial law area.

◇ [Choi Hwi] It means strict rule of emergency. For a clear understanding, it looks like we need further explanation.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: That's right. So I'll let you hear the English interpretation. The English dictionary points to 'emergency mental law'.If you only interpret the words
, it's 'emergency military statute' and the practical meaning is 'military rule'.
Since it is an emergency situation, there is a high concern that all areas in which we live, including administration, justice, education, industry, and the media, will be operated as a temporary measure. It is difficult to utilize the abundant knowledge and experience of professional manpower.

◇ Choi Hwi: You said Martial Law, does Marshall mean military?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Martial law's 'martial' comes from Mars, the Roman god of war.Mars by neighbor in
is also called Mars. It looks like it's reminiscent of a battlefield scene in the red blood of the stars.The martial art is also called Martial Arts in English. It means the art of war and fighting. MMA, commonly referred to as heterogeneous speculation, should actually be interpreted as mixed martial arts.Short for
Mixed Martial Arts. Mixed martial arts is a sport in which different types of martial arts compete. You can imagine Taekwondo vs. Karate and Judo vs. Wrestling. On the other hand, in mixed martial arts, one player can use all kinds of martial arts.

◇ [Choi Hwi] Oh, art didn't just mean art like music and art.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: That's right. The English name of the Sonbyeongbeop, which is called the best military book, is also Arts of War. It means 'the art of war'.

◇ Choi Hwi: In the past, the incumbent president was impeached for manipulating state affairs, right? I'm curious about the meaning.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Nongdan (壟斷) is written in Chinese characters as 'Uneok Long, Cut/Gappa Dan'. It refers to the behavior of 'unfairly monopolizing wealth or power'. It comes from a 'coward businessman on a steep hill'. Once upon a time, there was a clever merchant in China. It is said that he climbed a high hill with a clear view of the city he only knew and made a great fortune by choosing a place to sell goods.
He's a great businessman at this point in time, but he must have been a mean businessman in ancient China.Please don't misunderstand the word '壟 Nong (膿)' of the
manipulation as 'pore Nong (弄)' of the same abscess or '가지고 to play with' of the travesty.

◇ Choi Hwi: That's a very different meaning than I expected. How do you write in English?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: The English word for agrarianism is 'monopoly', or monopoly. Intuitive understanding isn't easy, is it?
I think it will be easier to understand if we replace it with 'political corruption', which means corruption of political power.
'Corruption' means 'break together'. Corruption is like a word created by a gang.

◇ Choi Hwi: Well, so Congress pushed for impeachment. I learned this during my political and economic class when I was in school, so can I know what it means?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Impeachment is short for impeachment (彈劾訴追: censure, rebuke, appeal, chase). It consists of the words 'Helping Tan, Hack to scold, Hack to appeal, Chasing' and means 'Appeal to point out the wrong and kick (from authority).For noble people like the President and the Minister, the National Assembly proposes the right to impeach them because it is difficult to dispose of them even if they have faults.'impeachment', the English word for
impeachment, means 'to shackle'. It comes from the late Latin 'impedicare', where im means 'in' and pedica means shackles, which are footwear. The Indo-European word 'ped', which means foot, is its root. It means 'disrupting/preventing authority'.

◇ Choi Hwi: There's a saying that you have to choose between impeachment and resignation, but do you think resignation means coming down?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: It's easy to understand when you think of the 野 as "going outside." Let's use the letters 'down/down' and 'down'. It means 'come down from power'.
The word '野' here also means 'not having power'.It is the same background to describe the
non-governmental party as 'opposition party (野黨: party, party)', and the party that is in the same body as the regime as 'ruling party (與黨: party, party).The English word for
haya is resignation. It comes from the verb resign, which means to give up.
Re means 'against' and sign means 'sign/mark'. They usually sign when they own something. Signing backwards refers to the act of backing down.

◇ Choi Hwi: The agency that proposed the impeachment motion is the National Assembly. Then, shall we find out the original meaning of the National Assembly?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: The National Assembly, which means 'a parliament that reflects the will of the people'. It is a dignified organization that determines laws and policies by reflecting the will of the people.
It is more important not because each member of the National Assembly is smart, but because it realizes the precious opinions of the people who are the owners of this country. The English word
means National Assembly. Assembly means a meeting.Captain America shouts to his teammates in the final episode of the
movie The Avengers: Endgame: '
"The Avengers, Avengers Assembly!"

◇ Isn't there a word called Congress?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Yes. Another word, conress, comes from the Latin conressus, which means 'com walk together'. Members, please walk with the will of the people.

◇ Choi Hwi: It's a pity that mixed words are used in the reality of our democratic country, Korea. Is there anything else you want to hear?

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Democracy means that the people are the masters. Demo in Democracy means people, Cracy means power.The opposite of
democracy is despotism. I use the word 'jeon' and 'the word of heaven'. It is a ruling ideology that moves the country only at the will of the king.In the English autocracy of
premise, auto means oneself and Cracy means power.

◇ Choi Hwi: Yes, I hope that we can overcome this strong wave wisely and become a more mature and prosperous country.
Thank you, writer Mallock Homes Shin Dong-kwang, for your easy explanation of the difficult terms.

◆ Shin Dong-kwang: Thank you.

◇ Choi Hwi: Until now, we've been with writer Shin Dong-kwang of Mallock Homes.
