한국어 문법 단위의 변화 유형에 대하여

Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the types of Korean language units' changes. We examined the changes of language units, that is, 'lexicalization' and grammaticalization. 'Lexicalization' and 'Grammaticalization' can be defined as follows : Lexicalization : The morpheme which was not lexical changes into lexical morpheme, that is, syntactic unit became lexical morpheme, grammatical morpheme became lexical morpheme, and lexical categorization became another lexical categorization. Grammaticalization : The morpheme which was not grammatical changes into grammatical morpheme, that is, syntactic unit became grammatical morpheme, and lexical morpheme became grammatical morpheme. The types of lexicalization divided into as follows : a. lexical categorization makes into another lexical categorization ‘새’(noun)→‘새’(adnoun), etc..... b. grammatical morpheme makes into lexical morpheme ‘보다’(particle)→‘보다’(adverb) c. syntactic unit makes into lexical morpheme: ‘새’(noun)+‘로’(particle)→‘새로’(adverb), ‘같-’(adjective)+‘-이’(ending)→‘같이’(adverb), ‘첫’(adnoun)+‘사랑’(noun)→‘첫사랑’(noun), etc. The types of grammaticalization divided into as follows : a. lexical morpheme makes into grammatical morpheme ‘마저’(adverb)→‘마저’(particle) ‘늦-’(verb)→‘늦’(prefix), etc.... b. syntactic unit makes into grammatical morpheme ‘밖’(noun)+‘에’(particle)→‘밖에’(particle) ‘잘-’(adjective)‘-ㄴ’(ending)→‘잔’(prefix), etc..
