  • 본 연구는 -ly 부사의 역사적 발달, 즉 문법화 과정을 통해 영어 -ly 부사출현에 관한 연구에 목표를 둔다. 이원화된 (일차적 & 이차적) 문법화 관점에서 고대영어의 형용사화 접사 -lic이 중세영어시기에 부사화 접사 -ly로 변화한 것은 일차적 문법화이며 연속적으로 동사구부사인 태도부사가 문법적 자질인 양태성[+modal]과 시제자질[+tense]을 습득하여 TP 영역의 문장부사로 변화가 일어난 문법화 과정은 이차적 문법화라고 정의한다. 이차적 문법화란 어휘항목에 바로 문법화가 적용되는 것이 아니고 이미 문법화가 일어난 통사형태적 표지의 재분석이 일어나는 것이다([어휘범주 → 문법기능범주1 → 문법기능범주2]). 부사화의 과정에서 형용사화 접사 -lic이 부사화 접사 -ly로 범주변화가 일어나는 일차적 문법화과정(형용사 → 태도부사)을 거친 후 태도부사는 이차적 문법화의 과정을 거쳐 새로운 문법적 기능인 시제와 양태성을 갖게 되고 이러한 이차적 문법화(태도부사 → 문장부사)의 결과가 문장부사의 출현으로 나타났다.

  • This study investigates how the truth-related words in Korean, which were originally noun or adverb with 'truth' related meaning, can be used as discourse markers with the functions such as 'emphatic marker', 'attention getter', or 'hesitation marker', and it argues that such functions of the discourse markers are the result of grammaticalization process. That is to say that the truth-related words have acquired new functions as discourse markers from their corresponding lexical items as a noun or an adverb through grammaticalization process. In this study, we demonstrate that the truth-related words tend to appear sentence-initially or sentence-medially when they are used as discourse markers. We also show that they are most likely to be used as emphatic marker because of the lexical meaning of the truth-related words. Finally, we state that truth-related words differ from one another in where they appear and what function they are used with.

  • The purpose of this work is to analyze categorial character of Russian verbal aspect from the typological perspective. To do this, first of all we will examine the overall historical process of grammaticalization of Russian verbal aspect. As a result of analysis, we have suggested that against wide-spread general assumptions in this area Russian verbal aspect correspond rather to lexico-grammatical category, than to purely typical grammatical category. Actually, I think this kind of approach as a pivotal point for the study of Russian verbal aspect. For example, this kind of typological approach has great advantages in a sense that firstly it gives us possibility of breaking from notorious routine Slavic-Centrism, secondly it can explain sufficiently and adequately various lexico-semantic usages of Russian verbs. Thirdly, our approach consistently accounts for various interactions of lexico-semantic, grammatical, discourse-pragmatic levels, in which Russian verbal aspect is involved. And finally, it sheds light on functional interactions between verbal categories, such as aspect, tense, and mood.

  • Tobin (1993) argues that verbs can be classified according to the process/result distinction. He further claims that the grammatical development of the lexical verbs into auxiliary/aspectual verbs is motivated by the distinction. In this paper, first, I reconsider Tobin's (1993) claim in the viewpoint of the principle of persistence (Hopper 1991) or the source determination hypothesis (Bybee, Perkins, and Pagliuca 1994), which states that the meaning of the source construction determines the path of grammaticalization. I then classified tense/aspect/ modality markers according to Tobin's (1993) process/result distinction. Finally, I argue that Tobin's (1993) process/result distinction constrains the distribution of grammaticalized verbs among tense/aspect/modality markers not only in English and but also in Korean.

  • This paper discusses constraints on grammaticalization, a primarily diachronic process through which lexical elements take on grammatical functions. In particular, it will argue that two constraints on this process, namely Persistence and Lwering, explain the different distributional patterns of time-relationship adverbs in Japanese, Korean, English and German. Furthermore, it will suggest that the distributional difference between Japanese and Korean time-relationship adverbs is not an isolated phenomenon but is a reflection of the overall semantic typological differences between the two languages in the sense of Hawkins (1986).

  • A historical investigation reveals that English preposition with underwent a change from OPPOSITION to ASSOCIATION and further to ACCOMPANIMENT, where the first stage shows peculiarity in that the two concepts involved comprise an unusual set to form an extensional chain. Intrigued by this oddity, this paper aims to investigate the semantic structure of English preposition with from a grammaticalization perspective. We review mechanisms and models of semantic change and evaluate their adequacy with the semantic structure and change shown by with. Drawing upon the observed fact that with underwent the apparent antonymic semantic change, it is argued that such semantic change mechanisms as metaphor, metonymy, subjectification, and generalization have difficulties explaining the change, and that only the Frame-of-Focus Variation can effectively account for this peculiar change type. In terms of semantic change models, we argue that the Bleaching Model cannot effectively provide an explanation; that the Loss and Gain Model has problems in explaining the motivation of change directions; that the Metonymic-Metaphoric Model cannot be assessed at the current level of investigation; and that the Overlap Model and the Prototype Extension Model excellently account for the macro-level changes.

  • The aim of this study is to analyze the complementizer that-deletion in embedded complement clauses in English. This paper is concerned with the alternation between the overt that-complementizer and the zero complementizer by the complementizer deletion (C-deletion or that-deletion) in constructions with a nominal complement that-clause, i.e. [VP Verb [CP that-TP]]. In this paper, we compare that-complementation and zero-complementation in a diachronic grammaticalization and corpus, and show that the complementizer that has its origin in pronouns diachronically and finally becomes to form a C-head of the functional category CP. We provide the syntactic and semantic explanation on the optionality of that-deletion while answering the question why and how that-deletion is getting increasing in use especially with the verb, think, in the informal contexts. With the major causes for the currently increasing use of that-deletion, we are concerned with the contexts in which the overt complementizers or the covert complementizers are preferred.

  • 영어의 분리부정사구문을 통시적 연구인 문법화의 관점에서 중세영어이후 출현 동기를 살펴보고 COHA, COCA와 같은 코퍼스에 기반하여 주로 미국영어에 나타나는 현재영어(PDE)의 분리부정사의 정당성을 논의하는 것이 연구의 목표이다. 중세영어 이전에는 비문법적이었던 부정사 첨사인 to와 원형동사 사이에 부사 등이 위치하는 [to + 부사 + 동사] 형태의 분리부정사가 어떻게 현재영어에서는 문법적 구문이 되었는지에 대한 출현 동기와 정당성을 살펴본다. 문법화와 코퍼스의 실증적 자료에 기초하여 분리부정사구문의 문법성을 입증하고 영어 분리부정사구문의 출현에 관한 통시적 분석인 문법화 과정을 그 증거로 제시한다. 분리부정사가 왜 만들어지는가의 질문에 대한 답으로 동사이동의 소멸이라는 통시적 문법화를 들 수 있다. 코퍼스 자료에 기초한 통사·화용적인 이유는 표현의 명확성 즉, 탈중의성을 위한 것이거나 분리자인 부사를 통해 인상적인 강조를 하기 위한 것이다. 결론적으로 부사가 to와 원형동사를 분리할 것인가 말 것인가의 문제는 더 이상 문법적 논의의 대상이 아니며 앞으로도 분리부정사의 형태는 자연스러운 문법적 구문으로 문맥상 필요한 경우 더욱 증가하는 추세를 보일 것이다.

  • 作爲使用頻率較高的副詞, "皆"和"都"分別代表了古代漢語和現代漢語中的兩類總括範圍副詞. 這兩類總括範圍副詞之間, 不是簡單的詞彙替代, 而是一種系統的變化. 通過語義指向, 焦點, 與否定副詞的連用情況的考察, 我們發現"皆", "盡", "都"存在一定的差異, 而且得出了"都"對"皆", "盡"的功能進行了基本結論. 這個演變從深層結構上說, 是各自的語義焦點的差異. "都"之所以能夠取代"皆", "盡", 成爲現代漢語主要的總括範圍副詞, 是因爲它在語義上不僅像"皆"那樣統括的範圍之內的個體在動作行爲或者性狀上的一致性, 也不僅像"盡"那樣強調指向對象的無例外, 而是這兩者的綜合.

  • The present paper targets on the excessive structural article dao in the "$X^1$ + dao + si" phrases, aiming to see the possible generation of the excessive meaning. The generation of excessiveness will be analyzed from the aspect of cognition, including conceptual structure and metaphor. It will be concluded that the position indicated by si in concept plays a crucial, which then tells the importance of collocation. What is more, the comparison of dao and Southern Min kah will be made to see the degree of grammaticalization of dao.
