| "abstract": "This paper discusses the relationship between grammar as linguistic knowledge, as envisaged in Generative Grammar, and usage, the result of performance. In concrete, I analyze the use of Korean reflexives icaki l , 'casin, and 'cakicasin' by examining the occurrences of these reflexives in a 5-million-word Korean corpus, taken from a 10-million-word Korean corpus which is called \"KOREA-1 Corpus\" compiled at Korea University (H. Kim and B. Kang 1996). This corpus is composed of various genres of Korean texts including 10% of spoken material. From the KWIC concordance of accusative forms of these reflexives, 'cakilul, 'casin-ur, and 'cakicasin-ur, I examined whether a reflexive has a local antecedent or a long-distance antecedent. The result is that 'caki' is almost even in having local and long-distance antecedents, but 'casin' has more and 'cakicasin' has much more local antecedents. I also examined the thematic roles of the local antecedents of reflexives, which shows that 'casin' has relatively more Experiencer antecedents than icaki` has, although in both cases Agent antecedents dominate. The outcome of these frequency analysis suggests that a tendency (probably not grammaticalized yet), or degree of \"naturalness\" is real and can be captured in the usage data provided that we have a sizable amount of material manageable in an efficient way as provided by the corpus linguistic method of the present day.", |

| "text": "The goal of Generative Grammar is to understand the human mind better through the study of linguistic knowledge of native speakers. The linguist's grammar is an explicit representation of such linguistic knowledge, i.e. \"language as what a speaker knows\". Since linguistic knowledge is very complicated we cannot ask speakers to describe their linguistic knowledge overtly. Instead, generative grammarians have used native speakers' intuition on the grammaticality of sentences as basic linguistic data. This method is in contrast with the earlier structuralists' method of using observable linguistic data, i.e. the product of linguistic performance. The reason why generative grammarians resort to intuition is that language use (performance) is interfered with by nonlinguistic factors such as memory and noise; and that the creativity of language cannot be described on the basis of limited amount of observable linguistic data.", |

LDC local domain preference constrain LPC larger domain preference constrain SOC subject-orientedness constraint CCC c-command constraint DBC discourse binding constraint These constraints are assumed to be universal and an individual language is assumed to select some of them and impose an order of preference on the selected constraints. English and Korean differ in the preference ordering as follows, he claims. 7English reflexives THC > CCC > SOC > LDC > DBC Korean 'caki' THC > LPC > SOC > CCC > DBC According to Moon (1996) , the main difference between English and Korean is that English reflexives follow LDC (local domain preference) but Korean 'caki' observes LPC (larger domain preference), so that 'caki' tends to take a long-distance antecedent. For example, 8Johni Billi Tomi cakilul piphanhantako mitnuntako malhayssta. John-Nom Bill-Nom Tom-Nom self-Acc criticized believed said 'John said that Bill believed that Tom criticized him/himself.'

Nominative forms are used as subjects and subjects usually do not take an antecedent in the same sentence due to the c-command constraints, so that there cannot be a local antecedent in a strict sense. Genitive forms are part of NPs, which are treated as local domains in some theoretical persuasions. In such a theory, a genitive NP is a kind of subject and this cannot take a local antecedent at all. To avoid such problems I take only 'caki-lul' as the object of study.", |

Compared with 'caki', 'casin' takes relatively more Experiencer antecedents. However, in absolute numbers of occurrence, 'casin' takes more Agent antecedents than Experiencer antecedents, and 'caki' not only takes Agent antecedents but also takes Experiencer antecedents. For example, although we can say that 'caki-lul' is more natural than 'casin-ul' as an object of the verb 'chata' (\"to kick\"), and 'casin-ur is more natural than 'caki-lul' as the object of the verb smiwehata' (\"to hate\"), we cannot say that the opposite cases result in an absolute ungrammaticality.

| "text": "Another controversy about different kinds of reflexives is the one regarding their status as nouns. Im (1987) classified 'caki' as a pronoun and 'casin' as a (common) noun for the following reason. In Korean it is possible to have a construction of \"pronoun + noun\", but \"pronoun + pronoun\" construction is not possible, usually when the pronoun is understood as a possessor.(24) a. wuli aki we baby 'our baby' b. *wuli ku / *wuli kunye we he we she 'casin' patterns with a noun but 'caki' patterns with a pronoun.(25) a. wuli casin we self b. *wuli caki we self So it seems that 'saki' is more like a pronoun and 'Quin' is more like a noun. However, when we consider the construction of \"caki/casin + noun\", the situation becomes reversed: 'caki + noun' is possible but 'casin + noun' is not.Since \"pronoun + noun\" is not possible as follows, we may claim that 'casin' is more like a noun than 'caki' in this respect (28) *wulipiphan I *kupiphan I *nepiphan we-criticism he-criticism you-criticism Therefore, the cases of compounding do not help us to judge which of 'caki' and 'casin' is more noun-like. Examining the use of reflexives sheds some light on this issue. Generally, nouns tend to be modified freely ('a beautiful flower', 'the boy who I met yesterday', etc), the modification of pronouns is not usual since pronouns are used to refer to discourse referents directly. Of course, nonrestrictive modification is possible for pronouns as well as for proper names: 'clever I', 'beautiful Mazy'. Therefore, although modification is not impossible with pronouns, we can say that common nouns are modified much more often than pronouns. Regarding 'cab' and 'casin', if one of them is used with more modification than the other, we can say that the former is more noun-like. Without extra constraints, modification is possible for both: (29) sihemey silphayhan caki/casin in-the-exam failed-Rel self 'self who failed in the exam'The examination of the corpus data gives the following figures. The result is based on the examination of both local and long-distance reflexives and it shows that 'casin' is more modified than 'caki'. This in turn suggests that 'casin' is more noun-like than 'Cab' in this respect", |
