'-고' 통합 보조용언의 상적 의미에 대하여

The Study of '-go' Integrated Auxiliary Verbs in Aspectual Viewpoint

The purpose of this article is to examine the aspectual properties of auxiliary verbs which are integrated into '-go(connective ending)'. There are several claims that '-go malda(-고 말다)', '-go boda(-고 보다)', '-go nada(-고 나다)' are perfective/perfect aspect forms. I examined the concepts of perfective/perfect aspect depending on Smith(1991). Judging from the concept of perfective/perfect aspects, '-go boda', '-go malda' do not have the meanings of perfective/perfect aspects. '-Go nada' has the meaning of the aspect, but the meaning(function) is not same as perfective/perfect aspect, '-go nada' focuses on the time lapse posterior to termination and completion of events. This form originated from coordination construction. '-Go' connects situations sequentially and termination or completion of events are due to this. The characteristic aspectual viewpoint of '-go nada' is due to the lexical meaning of 'nada' which means 'come out'. The grammaticalization of '-go nada' was possible because of the properties of its meaning (come out) which can be redundant in certain connective constructions. I argued that the aspectual property of '-go nada' was originated from the image schema of 'nada'.
