AB - This paper aims to define a category of verbs in modern Korean language which linguistically describes and expresses wishes. A wish is a verbal expression of one’s desire or hopes. In every language, linguistic formats to convey wishes are realized in various ways. In Korean, wish verbs are in the form of words that play a pivotal role in completing the sentence to which they belong. As they can be regarded as among the most direct linguistic methods to express and reveal the content of wishes, it is important to conduct a systematic research on wish verbs in Korean.
Wishing is an abstract deed that occurs inside someone’s consciousness. In this regard, wish verbs have been categorized in prior research as a sub-category of psychological verbs as they describe an internal deed. Some researchers have focused on the fact that the content of a wish is found as a state in a complementation clause, discussing wish verbs in studies of prepositional verbs or complementation. However, as those approaches have a limitation in understanding the characteristics of wish verbs, this paper aims to define a category of wish verbs in Korean by analyzing their characteristics and investigating differences from other verbs.
Against this backdrop, this paper describes the concept of wish verbs as verbs that directly describe a behavior of agent who inwardly waits for an object. Based on the definition, this research establishes a criterion for defining wish verbs by analyzing the characteristics of agent, object, and inward deed. Finally, this research suggests a list of wish verbs from entry words introduced in the Standard Korean Language Dictionary.
