An structural approach to the information structure related to the discourse

This study argues the necessity of information structure education in developing communicative competence. Since information structure is concerned with the form of utterances in relation to communicative needs of speakers and hearers, the appropriate uses of information structure help to achieve effective communication. Therefore, this paper focuses on the structural role of various phenomenon related to discourse and information structure in Spanish. And I propose that it is necessary to understand and recognize structural operations that trigger discourse-related effects in second language learning of Spanish, accounting for cross-linguistic variation, in particular in Korean and English. This paper offers dislocation and fronting phenomenon, word order alternations and emphatic polarity items’ using in Spanish, which entails the components included in information structure-topic, focus, emphasis, etc. And I suggest that it is useful to understand the relationship between structural analysis and discourse for explaining discourse-related structural operations.
