AB - In sentential types in Korean, the ‘exclamatory sentence’ is under some controversy among scholars with respect to whether it can be classified as an independent sentential type. However, since the exclamatory sentence has its own characteristics distinguished from the declarative sentence, it can be established as a sentential type in Korean. Although the criteria for categorial division and classification of type for the exclamative sentence are not clearly defined, these facts cannot be the reasons to claim that the exclamative sentence is not an independent sentential type. In fact, Korean exclamatory sentence has not been highlighted much in previous researches.
The exclamatory sentence in spoken Korean is rarely constructed with the sentential endings classified to this date as exclamatory endings. Following the author’s analysis of exclamatory sentences used in the dialogue of television dramas, it is revealed that the exclamatory sentence often ends with various final endings and connective endings as well as other parts of speech. For this matter, the main factor governing the hearers’ recognition of the exclamatory sentence mainly depends on intonation.
The exclamatory sentence in spoken Korean does not only have the tone of /231/ and /241/ unlike what is claimed in other previous grammar books.
In fact, the final intonation of actual utterance is realized with all of three types such as ‘flat tone’, ‘rising tone’, and ‘falling tone’. Compared to the declarative sentence, the exclamatory sentence is more dynamic in articulation since it has a greater fluctuation of intonation in utterance. Furthermore, the exclamatory sentence has a higher sound pitch in the final syllable of an utterance and whole utterance compared to the declarative sentence, and also the final syllable of an utterance has a longer sound length in the exclamatory sentence.
