초록

Yim Chae-Hun. 2015. On representation mechanisms for ‘expatiation’ in Korean - focused on ‘-ji anko(-지 않고)’ clauses. Korean Semantics, 50. In this paper, we studied about representation mechanisms for 'expatiation' in Korean. We explored the following problems in the progress. First, what are the semantic criteria to distinguish representations of 'expatiation'? Second, how should the content be organized when we intend to expatiate? For resolving these problems, we investigated targeting '-ji anko(-지 않고)' clauses that are expatiated on main clauses. As a result, we found that the contents that antedate ‘-ji anko(-지 않고)' is 'common ground', namely 'the pragmatic presupposition'. Through this, we found that 'the pragmatic presupposition' be selected as the contents when we intend to expatiate.
