초록

In our daily life, light is vital, and brightness/darkness is determined by the presence/absence of light. This research explores how brightness is expressed in Korean by examining the lexical items palkta ‘bright’ and etwupta ‘dark’ through a corpus-linguistic analysis of the Sejong Project Corpus. Examination of the data shows that palkta occurs 914 times, and etwupta 957 times. Based on these statistics, we examined the frequency of the grammatical forms, and found that they are used attributively with high rates. Examination also shows that the nouns that cooccur with palkta and etwupta are categorized into concrete nouns, nouns of physical actions/appearance, nouns of psychological states and abstract concepts, and fixed or idiomatic expressions. This research characterizes the figurative meanings of palkta and etwupta in terms of metaphor theory. Examination shows that the extended meanings of palkta and etwupta can be characterized by metaphors such as ABSTRACT CONCEPTSARE- LOCATIONS, MIND-IS-A(N) LIGHT/ILLUMINATOR, INTELLIGENCEIS- BRIGHTNESS, among others. Finally, this research shows that a text-based analysis of brightness terms is a useful method in exploring meanings and uses of words in lexical semantics.

Abstract

In our daily life, light is vital, and brightness/darkness is determined by the presence/absence of light.

Examination of the data shows that palkta occurs 914 times, and etwupta 957 times. Based on these statistics, we examined the frequency of the grammatical forms, and found that they are used attributively with high rates. Examination also shows that the nouns that cooccur with palkta and etwupta are categorized into concrete nouns, nouns of physical actions/appearance, nouns of psychological states and abstract concepts, and fixed or idiomatic expressions. This research characterizes the figurative meanings of palkta and etwupta in terms of metaphor theory. Examination shows that the extended meanings of palkta and etwupta can be characterized by metaphors such as ABSTRACT CONCEPTSARE- LOCATIONS, MIND-IS-A(N) LIGHT/ILLUMINATOR, INTELLIGENCEIS- BRIGHTNESS, among others.
