In Tchoe (2012, 2013) I have argued that the ECMed DP in Korean is in fact a base-generated proleptic argument. In this subsequent work I will tackle a variety of questions contained in this conclusion. But in the first part of the article, I will delve rather into the Multiple Nominative/Accusative constructions in Korean, which have always been assumed to posses distinct syntactic representations and derivations from the ECM constructions. I will show that the Multiple Nominative/Accusative constructions are also a base-generated proleptic construction. Given this, the unique difference between ECM constructions and Multiple Case constructions in Korean is the fact that in the latter types of constructions the grammatical (thematic/narrow, in other terms) subject/ object is always represented by a DP. Upon this observation, four assertions will be made on the syntax of Korean. The first one is that Korean employs two types of syntactic objects to represent in syntax an argument selected by a predicate; the one is a continuous expression and the other a discontinuous expression in the sense of Hale (1981 et seq). I refer, as a continuous expression, the nominal or propositional expressions that function like a single syntactic object with regard to syntactic operations such as scrambling. For nominal or propositional expressions whose parts split off after the Case-checking, I will refer them as a discontinuous expression. I will also show that discontinuous expressions have nothing to do with so-called symmetrically Merged unstable syntactic objects (Chomsky 2013, Moro 2007 and Ott 2011, forthcoming). But I am not ready to propose any tangible idea on the internal composition of the discontinuous expressions. The second assertion put forward is that discontinuous expressions always consist of a proleptic argument and a grammatical subject/object. The third and last assertions are that proleptic arguments are assigned a pragmatically accessible θ-role and that they appear on the left side of the grammatical subject/object at least in Korean.

This paper provides the specific procedure of the label projection in the C space for wh-movement under the split CP hypothesis (Rizzi 1997). I argue that wh-phrases have the features [Q, wh] by means of the N-to-D head raising, which makes wh-items, simple or complex, be labeled as phrasal DPs. This means that the reprojection of the CP to the DP by the wh-head cannot occur along the lines of Donati (2006). Under the assumption that the complementizer only has the E(dge)F(eature), the English C acquires the Q-feature by means of Internal Merge of a wh-phrase bearing the [Q, wh] to [Spec,C]. The Q-feature is not base-generated on the C, whose Q is inherited from the wh-phrase occupying [Spec,C]. The transmission of the Q-feature to the C plays a part in making the C reprojected to the FocusP(or QP) during the derivation.

Korean has three types of syntactic causatives, which vary depending on the case marking of a causee argument. A causee argument in Korean syntactic causative can be dative-marked, accusative-marked, or nominative-marked. This paper analyzes that a syntactic causative with a dative-marked causee argument corresponds to a let-causative, whose causer argument controls an agent PRO embedded within a lower vP that expresses a caused event. The accusative-marked and the nominative-marked causee pattern fall into make-causatives, whose causee argument merges as an agent argument of a lower vP. A causee argument gets accusative-marked by a higher v in matrix clause, undergoing covert raising to the Spec/vP position, or can it be nominative-marked inside a lower vP that expresses a caused event. The proposed analysis is supported by evidence from NPI-licensing, from Binding, and from scope interpretations involving quantifiers and focus delimiters.

Languages have various ways of linking between the subject and the predicate. In many languages, the copular verb is the principal way of linking, though this is not the universally the case. Some appear in the form of suffixes and others in the form of words. One of the purposes of the study is to show the various ways of linking among languages with some examples. Another purpose is to show that there are many instances of zero (phonologically null) copula constructions cross-linguistically. The last purpose is to provide syntactic, semantic and pragmatic explanation for the zero copula constructions. We will argue that the dichotomy of stage-level and individual level predicates plays the core role for the zero copula constructions.

“Support /səpɔˊ:rt/” may be pronounced as follows: [səpʰ ɔˊ:rt] or [spʰɔˊ:rt]. In English phonology the latter [spʰɔˊ:rt] has more phonologically critical problems than [ə] is deleted, because [pʰ] shouldn't normally appear after [s]. Although [pʰ] is an allophone of /p/, it even distinguishes [spʰɔˊ:rt] “support”and [spʼɔˊ:rt] “sport”in meaning. This phonological inconsistency, which is not explained in rule-based phonology, is neatly explained in Optimality Theory. As Optimality Theory is a constraint-based phonology, misdistributed allophones can be also optimal forms, because optimal forms can violate constraints, which are lower than decisive ones in ranking, and be chosen by ranking constraints differently.

The term euphemism is not polysemous. However it is frequently employed in a 2-way form; sometimes as a channel to convey Speaker's innocuous indirect message (euphemism) and in other times as a device to hide Speaker's malicious intention (doublespeak). The former is intended to promote politeness from Speaker to Hearer and the other is a manipulated form to secure Speaker‘s unduly profit at the cost of Hearer. This paper discusses what distinguishes benign euphemism from malicious doublespeak. This writer probes into the similarities and dissimilarities between euphemism and doublespeak by comparing Allen & Burridge (1991) and Lutz (1989) and proposes Leech's (1987) cost-benefit module as a possible criterion for telling benign euphemism from malicious doublespeak. Overall this research tries to shed light on how language can be manipulated to Speaker's purposes.

The purpose of this study is to explore the different collocations in English communication verbs, such as say and tell through a corpus-based analysis. Although the verbs say and tell are synonymous, they select different DP objects such as say a prayer or tell a lie. So those differences are explained in terms of collocation. In order to understand the difference of collocational patterns between the verbs say and tell, I attempted to verify them by reading and examining a corpus. The analysis should be useful in understanding collocation since it is based on empirical data. The results show that say is collocated with DPs whose semantic properties have such specific linguistic content as anything, word, hello, hey, hi, etc. that agrees with the semantic field of say. Meanwhile, tell is collocated with the DPs whose semantic properties have the specific linguistic content of facts or information like story, truth, difference, tale, etc. that agrees with the semantic field of tell. This study shows that the semantic properties of nominal objects which are selected by the verb say or tell play an important role in understanding collocationally synonymous as well as different.

This paper investigated the role of specificity by Korean learners in processing the article choice parameter. To this end, Korean learners of EFL completed the online and the offline semantic acceptability-rating tasks. The online results indicated that the Korean learners of EFL at both the advanced and the intermediate level of the proficiency fluctuated between the specificity and definiteness parameter settings. Especially for the intermediate Korean learners of EFL, the response time of the [-definite, +specific] condition showed little difference from other conditions, implying that they adhered to the definiteness parameter setting. The offline results, in contrast, indicated that the Korean learners of EFL at both the advanced and the intermediate level of the proficiency adhered to the definiteness parameter setting. It seems that there is a possibility that the intermediate learners were adopting the definiteness parameter setting, which is different from the claims made in Ionin, Ko and Wexler’s (2004) specificity hypothesis.

The twentieth-century history of second language (L2) education has been characterized by a search for more effective ways of L2 education. The search has led to various approaches, and perceptions of and attitudes toward the role and effectiveness of instruction in L2 education has been affected by these approaches. The role and effectiveness of instruction has important pedagogical implications. This study attempts to review, analyze, and synthesize previous studies on the role and effectiveness of L2 grammar instruction. The study starts by presenting a brief overview of major issues in L2 instruction research. It then looks into studies that investigate the effects of various instructional types and finds that their findings and conclusions are conflicting, leaving an impression that the effectiveness of grammar instruction is inconclusive at best. The study ends with a discussion of “problems” that the reviewed studies reveal.

This paper introduces structural metaphor which is a type of conceptual metaphor and proposes another type of conceptual metaphor corresponding to the structural metaphor. It is called reverse structural metaphor since it has externally the same structure as structural metaphor but the property of the target and source domain is reversed. The purpose of this paper is to study and compare these two types of metaphor – structural metaphor and reverse structural metaphor - with specific metaphorical linguistic expressions found in political speeches based on conceptual metaphor theory. Especially, this paper shows that the metaphorical linguistic expressions which have not been explained by the existing structural metaphor and therefore ignored are settled by virtue of reverse structural metaphor. In the process, the characteristics of the reverse structural metaphor to be dealt with as an independent type of conceptual metaphor will be provided.
