외국어를 학습할 때 기본 문법이나 어휘를 배우는 것이 중요하지만 학습자들이 초급 단계에서 중, 고급 단계로 올라갈수록 상황에 적합한 어휘를 사용하고 보다 정확하게 그 의미의 차이를 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 그리하여야 자신이 전달하고자 하는 의미를 정확하게 표현하고 상대방의 의도를 이해할 수 있는 전문적인 인재로 발전할 수 있기 때문이다. 특히 몽골인 학습자들의 특징은 비한자문화권 한국어 학습자고 또한, 영어보다 러시어가 가까운 이유로 학습 단계가 올라갈수록 어휘 교육에 어려움을 겪고 있다. 그래서 어휘 중 유의어 학습을 개선 할 수 있는 방법으로 학습자 및 교사를 위한 유의어 쌍 목록집을 제시하는 것이 효과적이라고 판단하였다. 이번 연구는 몽골인 한국어 학습자와 교사를 위한 교육용 기본 유의어 쌍 목록집을 제시하기 위하여 한국어 연구의 주 자료들을 통하여 한국어 교육용 기본 유의어 쌍 추출 목록을 선정하고 몽골에서 대표적인 몽골국립대학교 및 몽골인문대학교의 한국어 학과에서 사용하는 한국어 교재에 나타난 유의어를 분석하였다. 그래서 몽골인 학습자를 위한 교육용 한국어 기본 유의어 쌍 목록 선정 및 몽골대학교 한국어 학과에서 사용하는 교재의 색인 부분에 없지만 한국어교육용 기본 유의어 추출 목록에는 존재하는 유의어 쌍 중 선별하여 몽골인 학습자를 위한 한국어 교육용 기본 유의어 쌍 보완 추출 목록을 선정하였다. 그 결과 명사유의어 460쌍(43.9%), 동사유의어 354쌍(33.6%), 형용사유의어 136쌍(12.9%), 부사유의어 101쌍(9.6%)으로 총 1051쌍을 추출하였다. 단계별로 보면 초급 단계 154쌍(14.6%), 중급 단계 353쌍(33.5%), 고급 단계 546쌍(51.9%)으로 구성하여 선정하였다.
