Previous discourse studies of Caseless bare NPs in Korean show that the information structure of zero Nominative not only differs from that of overt Nominative but it also differs from that of zero Accusative in many respects. This paper aims to provide a basis for these semantic/pragmatic properties of Caseless NPs through the syntactic difference between bare subjects and bare objects: namely, the former are left-dislocated NPs, whereas the latter form complex predicates with the subcategorizing verbs. Our analysis will account for the facts that (i) the distribution of bare subject NPs are more restricted than that of bare object NPs; (ii) bare subject NPs must be specific or topical; (iii) Acc-marked NPs in canonical position tend to be focalized.", |

The grammatical contrast in (1) further shows that the distribution of bare NP subject in (1b) is not only less common but also severely restricted in canonical subject position, namely, Spec-T, in contrast to the bare NP object in (1a) in canonical object position.", |

Since the referents of 1 st and 2 nd person subjects are pragmatically assumed in their context, bare NP subjects, which are LDed nominals, are more coherent in these contexts. The unnaturalness of subjects with Nominative Case marker -ka is accounted for parallel to ga-marked subjects in Japanese, as discussed in Kuno (1972) . According to Kuno (1972: 273) , -ga as a subject marker in the matrix sentence always signals that the subject conveys new, unpredictable information. Note that the speaker's or hearer's existence or coming into existence is presupposed in a regular conversational discourse. Therefore, it is implausible for the speaker to talk about his or addressee's existence or appearance at the place of his speaking as if it were an entirely new event. This seems to be why all the first/second person nominals with -ka marker make the relevant sentences much more unnatural. We can also account for the contrast that S. Ko (2002: 237) observes for the third person subject which can occur with or without a nominative Case marker, as shown in (14).", |

This is, according to him, due to the force of exhaustive listing of -ga. He observes that such a connotation does not exist with a topic maker, or with no markers. The same contrasts are found in Korean, as in (15) . This contrast is correctly predicted under the LD/sentence-topic analysis of bare NP subjects. LDed NPs share some discourse properties with topics such as specificity or D-Linkedness, so the paradigm naturally follows.

In other words, the presence of Nom Case is compulsory in canonical subject position, viz., in non-dislocated position.

Note further that Acc Case in dislocated position, namely, in scrambled position cannot be absent. Thus, it is predicted that the appearance of Acc Case on scrambled NPs does not necessarily give rise to focalization effects on a par with that of Nom Case in canonical subject position. Hence the scrambled NP in (20a) is not necessarily focalized unless it receives extra focal strategy such as special prosody and the like.

Thus, unless you intend to emphasize/focalize who you are going to see, the bare NP is preferred in neutral context. A similar explanation can be given in (22). In normal context, it is not necessary to focalize the item you are going to return if it has a problem. In other words, it is naturally expected that malfunctioning items will be returned to the store within a warranty period. Thus, the appearance of Acc marker on the object in (22) is predicted to be unnatural in the usual context under our conception of the functional role of overt Acc Case. S. Lee (2006) proposes that bare NPs without Acc markers are more restricted or \"marked\" from the perspective of neo-Gricean pragmatics, utilizing Levinson's (2000) pragmatic Case, on the other hand, gives rise to \"hard\" semantic/pragmatic effects such as specificity, definiteness, D-Linking, and the like. Thus, extra uses of the marker -nun with subjects (and perhaps with the dislocated NPs in general) are relatively more frequent and significant than the one with the objects in situ on pragmatic considerations.", |

| "text": "In this paper, we have explored subject-object asymmetries of morphological Case realization and semantic/pragmatic implications under the formal analysis proposed by Ahn & Cho (2006; 2007b) . According to Ahn & Cho (2006; 2007b) , bare NP objects and subjects have different structural sources: bare NP objects form a \"syntactic\" complex predicate with subcategorizing verb, whereas bare NP subjects are LDed nominals. Hence, the distribution of bare NP subjects is closely related to discourse properties. Specifically, we have shown that such structural difference between bare NP subjects and bare NP objects results in various kind of asymmetries: high occurrence rate of bare NP objects, person/definiteness effects in bare NP subjects, and presence or absence of D-linked interpretation for bare WHs. We also discussed the contexts where overt morphological Case marking is strongly preferred. When the speaker wants to convey the meaning of 'X (and only X) ...' or 'It is X that ...', the subject nominal generally occurs with -ka marker. The object nominal, by contrast, occurs with -lul marker mostly when contrastive focalization/emphasis is given to it. Our formal account of subject-object asymmetries concerning non-pronunciation of Case markers in Korean sharply contrasts with the functional approaches such as H. Lee (2006a-c) which might basically exploit the idea that subjects and objects prototypically differ with respect to the hierarchies of person, animacy and definiteness. Our analysis can present a firm basis for these hierarchies that underlie the functional flavor of Case marking variations.", |

Yengho-nun Seoul Yek tayhapsil-eyse kwutwu-\u00d8 tak-ass-ta. Yengho-Top Seoul Station waiting room-at shoes shine-Past-Dec 'Yengho was a shoeshine boy at Seoul Station waiting room.'Unlike the Case-marked form kwutwu-lul 'shoes-Acc' in (23a), the Caseless form kwutwu-\u00d8 'shoes' in (23b) is more likely to induce idiomatic reading with its predicate takassta 'shined'. Hence, kwutwu-\u00d8 tak-ass-ta tends to be interpreted as 'he was a shoe-shine boy'. A similar contrast is given in (24).(24) a. Nehi apeci-nun tayhakkyo tanil-cekey Shin Sung-Il ppyam-ul chi-ess-ta Your father-Top college go-when Shin Sung-Il cheek-Acc hit-Past-Dec 'When your father was a college student, he hit Shin Seung-Il's cheek.' b.

(24a), in contrast, induces only literal reading. Thus, it seems that \"ppyam + chi-\" in (24b) is conventionalized as an idiom unlike \"kwutwu ttakk-\" in (24b). The complex predicate formation approach to the bare object NPs advanced here correlates directly with this consequence, dispensing with additional (meta)-pragmatic functions since idioms in general can be analyzed as extended complex predicate formations (Marantz 1984; Larson 1988 ).If the preferred or obligatory idiomatic readings with bare objects can be explained by complex predicate formation as in (25), our general claim is still sustained: namely, bare NPs in complement positions are unmarked forms and Acc-marked forms are marked ones containing special information since idioms are usually derived from unmarked formation across languages. Crosslinguistly, contrasts similar to (20) are detected in Accusative Case variation in Kannada. observes that Acc Case-marked objects receive a specific interpretation only when this morphological marking is optional (this is the case within animate direct objects). When the Accusative Case morpheme is obligatory, specificity effects are positional and are not due to the presence of the morpheme (this is the case with animate direct objects, for instance). In this case, additional morphology is required in order to achieve the specific interpretation. In Korean, the morphological marker -nun (often called Topic marker) is widely employed in subject positions to make semantic/pragmatic distinction from Nom Case, instead of overt/covert Nom distinction. The marker -nun, however, occurs only in certain very limited contexts in object positions since we can exploit overt/covert Acc distinction here quite freely for \"soft\" pragmatic distinctions including focalzation/emphasis or implicature (S. Lee 2006) . The presence or absence of Nom", |
