ABSTRACT

Methodologically, a special attention is paid on unique or marked use, cognitive or expressive functions, and emphatic functions related to anaphors based on general use. Major points are as follows:As for the general characteristics, specification and emphasis by demonstrative pro-forms, concrete substantiality and cognitive concentration of ‘kes(것)’ expressions, repetition and cohesion / coherence as anaphoric close connection are discussed. In the unique uses of anaphora are included predominance of discourse / cognitive meaning over syntax, cohesion / coherence through alternation and repetition of demonstrative pro-forms, and cognitive / expressive function of diverse referring expressions. The uses of emphasis related to anaphora comprise the transfer of redundant referential function to emphatic function, focusing or emphatic function in several syntactic constructions, and emphatic function through anaphora and repetition in the flow of discourse.
