Jespersen의 Analytic Syntax와 한국어 통사 분석: 1²1(21) & S0 0 1(3) X*

Chang, Suk-Jin. 2003. Jespersen's Analytic Syntax and syntactic Analysis of Korean: 1²1(21) & S0 1(3) X. English Language and linguistics 16, 131-160. This paper has a two-fold purpose: (I) explicating Jespersen's system of symbolization in his Analytic Syntax (1937) and (2) analyzing Korean constructions syntactically in the framework of Analytic Syntax. Jespersen's system of symbolization, together with his functional approach to grammar rooted in notions like nexus, junction, and ranks, enables us to look into the deep insight of the workings of English and to disambiguate structura1 meanings by distinctly symbolizing the same surface form by means of a string of annotated symbols such as small subjects (s), half-subjects (½S…½S), coindexing (S₂...S₂), stars, alternatives (s/3), zero (S0), and brackets ( [ ], for extraposition). In the course of exercises analyzing major syntactic constructions of Korean a la Analytic Syntax, the following augmentations or modifications are made: (i) subtyping V into V" (processive verb, or verb), Vd (descriptive verb, or adjective), and v¹ (linking verb, ar copula), (ii) adding indices: " (utterer) and h (hearer), (ⅲ) an augmented use of '+' (e.g. S0+h). (iv) category change;V¹(nominalization), V² (adnominalization), V³ (adverbialization), (v) subtyping X (nexus-substantive) into X0 (processive nexus-sustantive) and X0 (descriptive nexus-substantive), and (vi) adding discourse functions: topic ( ¹) and focus ( ¹).
