ABSTRACT

This paper deals with the pragmatic elements concerned with the sounds of utterance. I discuss about various phonological devices to express pragmatic elements appearing throughout the vocal sounds, not only prosodic but phonemic and phonetic as well. It is shown that the sounds play an important part in indicating the meaning of utterances on pragmatic level such as the illocutionary act, the attitude of speakers, and the discourse type. I propose that the interface research between pragmatic and phonetic studies enlarge the field of Korean linguistic researches.
