This paper is to investigate so-called ECM constructions in Korean. It is generally assumed in the literature that the ECMed DP is a subject of a complement clause raised to the matrix landing site. But I will show that Korean ECMed DP is in fact the base-generated proleptic argument on grounds of evidence related to the long-distance relativization. Besides this conclusion, I will examine one alleged property of the Korean ECM constructions. It is quasi unanimously assumed that there exist restrictions on the category and the grammatical function of the embedded clause and on the embedded predicate such as the transitivity restriction. But we will see that such a restriction has no firm basis. I will also reveal one unknown property of these constructions; not only the subject but also the direct object, the indirect object and even the adjunct can be represented by a proleptic argument, c'est à dire can be ECMed.

In this paper, I discuss a semantic aspect of the null degree word/operator in Korean clausal and phrasal comparatives to suggest the following: First, the null degree word in Korean comparatives can be replaced with overt deictic degree words (cf. Choe (2012)). Second, -pota may license a generic or a specific phrase, but not a non-specific phrase. Third, while deictic degree words in Korean are ambiguous between specific and non-specific, the null (deictic) degree word in Korean comparatives is non-specific so that -pota may not come directly after the "stripped" compared constituent containing the (non-specific) degree word. During the discussion, to explain a certain cross-linguistic difference between Korean and English, I also suggest that the null degree word in English can be ambiguous between specific and non-specific, unlike the one in Korean, and that the null degree word of the "stripped" compared constituent should be specific in English, because than also cannot license a non-specific phrase.

The Korean plural marker tul can be used in a peculiar way. It can not only attach to a nominal expression functioning as a usual plural marker, but it can also, rather unusually, attach to other types of phrasal category. Semantically, when used in the latter way, it brings to the discourse context a sense of distributivity which is rather weak – weak to the extent that truth conditions are sometimes unaffected by its presence. In this article, I derive these properties of extrinsic tul from two proposals: (i) extrinsic tul comes with a silent anaphoric element; and (ii) it conventionally implicates the existence of a distributive relation between the host phrase of tul and its plural antecedent.

This study examines the grammaticalization processes from displacement verbs peli- and chiwu-, denoting removal to auxiliary verbs, with special focus on their development into stance markers. In the development to the auxiliary verbs, the verbs in question reveals some tendency. With the help of corpus, we will focus on their frequency in the development to functional markers. Unlike other works previously done on the same displacement verbs, this study is meaningful because this study is implemented in a quantitative approach. We employed the four-stage scenario (Heine 2002) to explain the meaning change from the physical verbs to the auxiliary verbs via sequential verb constructions. Also, this paper contradicts one argument of Strauss (2002) on the verb peli-, giving counter examples.

This study aims to find out how Figure and Ground, perspective, and orientation interact with each other and why alternative construals of the same situation are available in the conceptualization of relative spatial locations of objects. It focuses on the availability of alternative construals when one object/two objects have their own inherent orientation. With respect to the objects within a scene, the perspective may be on the speaker or the object, which results in different conceptualizations of relative spatial locations between the two objects. Perspective point can be shifted from the speaker to an object with its own inherent orientation, and that object has the role of a Ground with respect to a Figure. Each object may receive the perspective and an alternative construal is available depending on its orientation. If the principle of Figure and Ground alignment and perspective interact with each other, the former works first: if the reversal of Figure and Ground is allowed, an alternative construal is available. Furthermore, if the perspective point is shifted to an object and the object has its own inherent orientation, an alternative construal of the relative spatial locations is available.

This paper investigates Korean learners' comprehension pattern of English relative clauses. Also Korean learners' general principle for interpretation of English complex sentences as L2 is discussed. Though, for the native speakers' general principle, Conjoined-clause strategy, Left-to-Right strategy and Functional Principle are argued in linguistic literatures, none of them is fully supported by Korean learners' data. Thirty High School students and sixty college students were tested in the experimental tests. As the results of de Villiers et al.(1979), Korean adult learners have shown the order of comprehension, as SS > OO > OS > SO type, and the number of possible candidates of the gap in relative clauses, not just the distance, has made them difficult to comprehend. To see the distribution of the relative clauses in Korean textbooks, I have investigated two High School textbooks. Both the amount and the diversity of relative clause types seem not to reflect Korean learners' developmental process properly.

Syntactic priming effect is a tendency in which the syntactic structure used in the previous utterance tends to be carried over in the following utterance. The effects have been considered to help envisage the abstract process in mind into a more concrete idea and offered prospects for understanding the speakers' grammatical structure. The purpose of the present study is to investigate whether this effect appears in Korean learners of Chinese, and whether the implicit learning effect emerges regardless of their proficiency(length of learning). Participants consist of two groups: less proficient learners with shorter length of learning (N=31) and more proficient learners with longer length of learning( (N=31). For the implicit learning effects, each participant took part in the experiment three times with an interval of fifteen days. The results showed that the syntactic priming effects have been observed. Also, the more salient implicit learning effects were observed in the group with longer length of learning(longer LOL) while the shorter LOL group has shown weaker effects. The results shed light on the universal tendency of syntactic persistence and gave implications that less-proficient learners who lack the cognitive prerequisite on L2 syntactic structures have some limitations on both the priming and implicit learning effects. The findings were complementary with the results of Park (2011).

This study explores the way in which Korean parents involve in the development of their children's English language while they stay in the U.S. to improve the children's English abilities. 10 parents participated in this study through free discussion, E-interview, E-journal, and in-depth interview. The research finds that the parents play three roles involved with their children's English language development. First, the parents, as helpers, participate in their children's English study in direct or indirect ways. Second, they, as mediators, help their children build the relationship with their peers and teachers. Lastly, they place an emphasis not only on second language learning, but on their mother tongue to preserve their children's identities and to help their children continue to study in their own country, Korea. When they are ready to return to Korea, the parents are concerned about their children's continuous practice in English. The results of the study will offer pedagogical implications to parents who have children planning to study abroad and teachers to instruct students who finish studying abroad.

This study investigates current states of college-level English medium instruction (EMI) focusing on students’ perception and satisfaction. In spite of increasing popularity of EMI in Korea, little attention has been paid on current states of EMI in universities located in non-metropolitan areas. This study explores this issue with a special reference to students’ perception and satisfaction classified as their English proficiency level and future direction of EMI. A survey questionnaire was administered to 224 students who took EMI in 2011. The survey indicates that successful implementation of EMI depends on students’ linguistic readiness and that policy support is needed.
