ABSTRACT

The purpose of this thesis is to describe the characteristics of Sino-Korean suffix. One syllable Sino-Korean can be function largely as noun, bound noun, root and suffix. To differentiate Sino-Korean suffix from noun and bound noun, the combinability with syntactic structure like clause or phrase and modification of adjective clause are suggested. And this papers show that the changeability of meanings and part of speech can be the criteria to distinguish suffix from root. In dictionary making such a distinction should be reflected properly because there are many homonym in one syllable Sino-Korean.
