AB - The function of Middle Korean prefinal morph '-ni-' is known as Apodictive mood(원칙법). Apodictive mood is defined as "the speaker recognizes the situation as a principle and invariable fact and notifies the hearer". However, even though '-ni-' was realized, sentences that do not realize the meaning of the apodictive mood are found in many of Middle Korean documents. For this reason, the discussions of the various viewpoints of the function of the '-ni-' are found.
In this paper, we examine the function of Middle Korean '-ni-' from the viewpoints of the gerund, the tense-aspect, the attitude of the hearers and the empty morph. And the problems of each viewpoint are summarized. As a result, it was possible to grasp the prefinal morph '-ni-' as a empty morph which is analyzed as a syntagmatic unit but is not analyzed as a functional unit. In addition, there is a preferred context and an undesirable context due to the influence of the 'gerund ending(-n) + copular', which is the original composition of '-ni-' and it is pointed out that the function of '-ni-' presented in the existing discussions is not the essential meaning and function of '-ni-', but which is the meaning of the context in which '-ni-' is preferred.
