ABSTRACT

Chinese ‘(shi)……de’ construction is instructively interpreted either as ‘-ess-ta’ or ‘-kes-ita’ in Korean. Upon observing that ‘-ess-ta’ can also be the Korean semantic counterpart of a Chinese dynamic auxiliary particle ‘le’, the analysis outlined in this article provides a more accurate description of the interpretive differences between ‘-ess-ta’ and ‘-kes-ita’ for ‘(shi)……de’ construction. In this article, it is shown that the analysis can comprehensively resolve the errors that may arise from the instruction of ‘(shi)……de’ construction to Korean learners. That is, the semantic characteristics of ‘(shi)……de’ construction, while generally assumed to correspond with ‘-kes-ita’ and ‘-ess-ta’ in Korean, are unable to be fully determined when it is only interpreted as ‘-ess-ta’ in Korean without a supplementary explanation for the interpretation. In order to enhance the instruction and description of ‘(shi)……de’ construction by reducing the pragmatic errors, this article offers an analysis of the two different interpretations ‘-kes-ita’ and ‘-ess-ta’ and seeks to provide instructive plans based on the analysis.
