ABSTRACT

Jo, Kyeong-Sun. 2003. A Study of Semantic Structure of Three-Place Predicates in Korean. Korean Semantics, 13. The predicate functions as the head of sentence, which leads the other component parts to compose the sentence. The study of the predicate can be the road to search and describe the syntactic and semantic structure of Korean. This paper intends to search the system and characteristics of the predicate which has three components by comparing with other phrases that has the same structure. In this paper, Jackendoff's Theory (1990) is used to analyze the syntactic and the semantic structure of the predicate.Through this study, following points are examined and described in this paper. First; The three argument appearing in the semantic structure of verbs are combined with the primitive elements and function of the verbs. Second, the characteristics of the syntactic and semantic structure of the verbs which has three components are examined. Third, The meaning of each argument can be described through the corresponding relations between the lexical structure and the syntactic structure. Fourth, The arguments are caused by the semantic structure of verbs.
