Abstract

The Linguistic Association of Korea Journal, 12(3), 59-79. This paper argues for a pragmatic treatment of some peculiar quantificational constructions in Korean. Specifically, it is argued that a few Korean sentences containing indefinite NPs with a strong focal stress, e.g., focused wh-phrases or focused numeral NPs, can be given a correct interpretation through illocutionary operators and felicity conditions rather than such logico-semantic notions as truth and falsity, in line with the time-old observation that Korean is a language exploiting more pragmatic principles than syntactic or semantic devices. It is shown that natural language quantification can be achieved in terms of speakers' intention that is not always expressed explicitly, ultimately providing another piece of supporting argument for Fauconnier's (1975) pragmatic quantification.
