Book The Korean Language

Download or read book The Korean Language written by Ho-Min Sohn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-03-29 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed survey of the Korean language, covering its speakers, genetic affiliation, historical development, dialects, lexicon, writing systems, sound patterns, word structure, and grammatical structure. It is designed to be accessible to a wide readership, and provides a wealth of data in a user-friendly format that does not presuppose an in-depth knowledge of the latest linguistic theories. It will be used by general linguists and Korean linguists who are interested in the typological characteristics of the language from both synchronic and diachronic perspectives, and by undergraduates and graduate students in those disciplines who seek a comprehensive introduction to the linguistics of Korean. Likewise, advanced students of the Korean language and language educators will find it offers valuable insights into lexical, phonological, morphological and syntactic aspects of the language for their purposes.

Book Theoretical and Experimental Aspects of Syntax Discourse Interface in Heritage Grammars

Download or read book Theoretical and Experimental Aspects of Syntax Discourse Interface in Heritage Grammars written by Tania Ivanova-Sullivan and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Theoretical and Experimental Aspects of Syntax-Discourse Interface in Heritage Grammars, Tanya Ivanova-Sullivan investigates comprehension and production of anaphoric dependencies with null and overt subject pronouns. She discusses the divergent behaviour of the heritage speakers of Russian by providing a closer look at their proficiency level, quantity of input and order of language acquisition. She explains the results with various degrees of successful application of pragmatic principles and efficiency in allocating cognitive resources. The contribution of the monograph lies in the discussion of theoretical and experimental issues related to anaphora resolution along with an investigation of all aspects of representation and processing of anaphoric pronouns by various kinds of bilinguals: heritage speakers, L2 learners and L1 attriters.

Book International Perspectives on Translation  Education and Innovation in Japanese and Korean Societies

Download or read book International Perspectives on Translation Education and Innovation in Japanese and Korean Societies written by David G. Hebert and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the three concepts of translation, education and innovation from a Nordic and international perspective on Japanese and Korean societies. It presents findings from pioneering research into cultural translation, Japanese and Korean linguistics, urban development, traditional arts, and related fields. Across recent decades, Northern European scholars have shown increasing interest in East Asia. Even though they are situated on opposite sides of the Eurasia landmass, the Nordic nations have a great deal in common with Japan and Korea, including vibrant cultural traditions, strong educational systems, and productive social democratic economies. Taking a cross-cultural and interdisciplinary approach, and in addition to the examination of the three key concepts, the book explores several additional intersecting themes, including sustainability, nature, humour, aesthetics, cultural survival and social change, discourse and representation. This book offers a collection of original interdisciplinary research from the 25th anniversary conference of the Nordic Association for Japanese and Korean Studies (2013). Its 21 chapters are divided into five parts according to interdisciplinary themes: Translational Issues in Literature, Analyses of Korean and Japanese Languages, Language Education, Innovation and New Perspectives on Culture, and The Arts in Innovative Societies.

Book Phrase Structure and the Lexicon

Download or read book Phrase Structure and the Lexicon written by J. Rooryck and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1996 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relation between phrase structure and the lexicon has always been an area of prime concern in syntactic theory, but never more so than in the recently developed minimalist framework, where the lexicon is largely reduced to configurational and computational properties of the grammar. Taking this perspective as their point of departure, the authors of this volume address issues including the mapping between thematic information and phrase structure, the way in which the configurational character of functional categories determines interpretation in a theory of phrase structure, and methodological discussions about core assumptions of phrase structure itself. Some of the essential themes that emerge are that projection and interpretation go hand in hand (a successful projection in an interpretable one), and that, to a large extent, phrase structure itself encodes lexical information and determines interpretation in the thematic domain. Audience: Theoreticians in syntax, semantics and language acquisition, and in related fields.

Book Processing of Syntactic and Anaphoric Gap filler Dependencies in Korean

Download or read book Processing of Syntactic and Anaphoric Gap filler Dependencies in Korean written by Nayoung Kwon and published by ProQuest. This book was released on 2008 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation explores the processing of syntactic (1) and anaphoric gap-filler dependencies (2) in Korean relative and adjunct clauses ('because' clauses), using event-related brain potentials (ERPs), self-paced reading times, and eye-tracking. 1) [RC _i senator-ACC attacked-REL] reporter-NOM error-ACC admitted. 'The reporter who attacked the senator admitted the error. (2) [BECAUSE _ i senator-ACC attacked-BECAUSE] reporter-NOM error-ACC admitted. 'Because hei attacked the senator, the reporteri admitted the error.' Following a discussion of different syntactic analyses of Korean relative clauses (especially wh-movement and unconditional binding of null arguments) in Chapter 2 and an overview of previous experimental studies (Chapter 3), Chapter 4 investigates the processing of syntactic dependencies using Korean subject (SRs) and object relative clauses (ORs). The results show a processing advantage of SRs over ORs, supporting processing models based on the accessibility hierarchy (Keenan & Comrie, 1977) and the phrase-structural distance hypothesis (O'Grady, 1997). Furthermore, the ERP results show that at the head noun, where the gap and filler are associated, ORs elicit an anterior negativity compared to SRs, similar to the pattern found in English relatives. This effect is attributed to higher working memory load for gap-filler association in ORs. Chapter 5 investigates the processing of backward anaphoric and syntactic long-distance dependencies; the goal is to investigate possible similarities and differences in underlying cognitive/neural processes. The results show that the processing of anaphoric dependencies is also sensitive to grammatical constraints defined in terms of the accessibility hierarchy or hierarchical structural distance. In the ERP experiment, both syntactic and anaphoric object dependencies elicit a LAN effect compared to control sentences at the matrix subject position. This is taken to suggest that in both types of dependencies, gap-filler association is immediate. However, compared to anaphoric dependencies, syntactic dependencies elicited a larger LAN effect. At the next word, relative to syntactic dependencies, anaphoric dependencies elicited a sustained LAN effect that continued through the end of the clause. The different time-course of these (left) anterior negativities was taken to suggest different gap-filler association requirements for syntactic versus anaphoric dependencies. These results are discussed in light of the syntactic analyses in Chapter 2.
