ABSTRACT

In Korean, patent documents are often show typical types of grammatical errors that are rarely found in other domains of professional documents. This study presents remarkable grammatical errors in patent documents based on lexical, morphological and syntactic analysis. Major factors of the ungrammaticalities are morphological and syntactic characteristics of patent documents. The morphological characteristics are about word-formation and compounding of technical terms. The syntactic characteristics are about routinized use of topicalized noun phrases and frequent passivization of vernal nouns.
