ABSTRACT

Shin Seo-in. 2009. Word Order Variation and Analyzing Sentence Meaning. Korean Semantics, 28. This paper has looked over various approaches to word order variation in Korean. Language typological approach shows generalized insight on basic word order; but it is not enough for word order variation in individual sentences. In syntactic approach, word order information of lexicon interact with other kinds of information such as case-marker or selectional restriction. In pragmatic approach, topic and focus, main concepts of a theory of information structure offer useful explanation for marked order. In some cases, scrambling is occurred for successful communication.
