ABSTRACT

This paper addresses the meanings of the Resultatives in Korean based on the relationships of the second predicates and their thematic subjects. There are three meanings of the Korean Resultatives: modification, transformation, and duration. Unlike the English Resultatives, the constraints of the Korean Resultatives rely heavily on the meanings between the first- and second predicates. So this paper concentrates on the meanings of the two predicates. The aspects of the first predicates are significant factors that decide whether the constructions are regarded as the Resultatives as well. All the first predicates of the Korean resultatives should have [+resultative] or [+perfect]. The second predicates have to indicate the resultative states caused by the first predicates. This paper shows the whole examples of the Korean Resultative constructions and the possible lexical items of the first predicates.
