AB - Chang Kyung-Hee, 2004, Types and Functions of Korean Referring Expressions. Korean Semantics, 15. This study is an attempt to classify referring expressions in Korean and to scrutinize their referential functions. First, referring expressions in Korean may be classified into three major categories: proper nouns, demonstratives, and common noun expressions comprising definite descriptions. Common noun expressions may be further classified based on the definiteness of their pre-head modifiers. Secondly, the Korean referring expressions typically refer to the properties, types, and locations of entities. Based on this fact, we sub-classified proper nouns, demonstratives, and common noun expressions into entity type referring expressions, entity property referring expressions, and entity location referring expressions. These three types of referring expressions may be characterized by means of their referential independence, referential accuracy, the size of their referents, the locational scope of reference, and the easiness of the referential act. Another perspective on the referring expressions, lastly, is the ways to strengthen their “referential capability”. In this perspective, definite descriptions are a strengthened form of common noun expressions.
