ABSTRACT

This study aims to analyse lexical co-occurrence and colligation of Korean verbs of endurance and to reveal how description of lexical tendencies contribute to discrimination of synonyms. The data used for this study is 2,928 sentences of verbs of endurance which are collected in the 21st Sejong Balanced Corpus. In Chapter 2, the theoretical background of a quantitative approach to grammatical tendency is introduced as a methodology of data-oriented linguistics, focused on systemic functional grammar, lexical priming theory and so on. Chapter 3 consists of two parts, one is colligation of negation and the other is semantic preference of arguments, comparing the outputs of the analysis with other Korean sentences extracted in the 21st Sejong Balanced Corpus. This study proposes the analysis of lexical tendencies and grammatical preference play an important role in explaining the existence of synonyms.
