This paper aims to elucidate the possibility of quotative verb ‘ha-’ deletion and explain the syntactic and semantic characteristics in quotative connective sentences. Connective endings are divided into two groups according to whether they permit quotation verb ‘ha-’ deletion in connective sentences. Quotation contraction means the phenomenon that connective endings are associated to the final endings of the quoted clauses. Firstly, the reason why the quotation verb ‘ha-’ can be deleted was discussed through the general principles of fusion. The deletion of ‘ha-’ originated from the comprehensive meaning of the verb. The high frequency and light burden in meaning and orality which are the characteristics triggerring fusion are the attributes of ‘ha-’. Some connective endings which permit ‘ha-’ deletion in quotative connective sentences have the meanings by which semantic relations come into existence between quoted clauses and following clauses just by the basic meaning of endings without the quotation verb ‘ha-’. And some other endings having the meaning of simultaneity can delete the ‘ha-’ too. Connective endings which satisfy these conditions must be used in spoken language. Some characteristics of quotative connective constructions are examined : original hearers in contracted constructions cannot appear; connective ending ‘-go(고)’ cannot be contracted; the range of meaning in some polysemantic endings is narrowed.
