Morphosyntactic Phenomena of Korean In role and Reference grammar

Publisher: State University of New York.
Publication date: 1994.
Number of pages: 288.This is a dissertation. My main objection goes to the author decision on using the Yale romanization scheme for transcribing Korean sentences without also rendering the sentences using Hanjul.
The main purpose of this dissertation is to answer the following two related questions:
(i) Can Role and Reference Grammar’s general theoretical assumptions, as a structural-functionalist theory of grammar, account for Korean morphosyntactic phenomena?
(ii) Does Korean follow and support RRG’s general assumptions as a theory of universal grammar?
To answer these two questions, this dissertation presents an analysis of four morphosyntactic
phenomena of Korean in RRG.
