An Event Semantics Approach to Sluicing vs. VP Ellipsis
Hae-Kyung Wee 한국언어학회 2015 언어 Vol.40 No.2
Wee, Hae-Kyung. 2015. An Event Semantics Approach to Sluicing vs. VP Ellipsis. This study proposes an account on contrasting grammaticality of sluicing and VP ellipsis based on davidsonian event semantics by arguing for a fundamental semantic difference between them. It is claimed that the elided event in sluicing is an old event, which is anaphorically referring back to the event denoted by the antecedent event, just like a pronoun, whereas the event of a VP ellipsis introduces a novel event. This can explain why sluicing usually occurs with an indefinite antecedent, whereas VPE cannot. (Dankook University)

This paper aims to investigate Korean advanced L2 English learners’ strategies for ellipsis resolution during sentence processing. Ellipsis resolution is known to involve several stages of information processing from the initial step of detecting an ellipsis-licensing element by the parser to the final stage of integrating the ellipsis site with the information retrieved from the antecedent of the ellipsis site. In examining these steps, we have manipulated three factors: (i) TP vs. VP-ellipsis; (ii) two types of discourse coherence relations (resemblance(-contrast) vs. cause-effect relations); (iii) voice match vs. mismatch. We found through the ERP recordings that voice mismatch in TP ellipsis elicited N400, followed by P600, irrespective of discourse coherence relations. In contrast, voice mismatch in VP-ellipsis registered N400 only in resemblance(-contrast) relation, but not in cause-effect relation. These findings lead us to conclude that Korean advanced L2 learners of English seem to undergo the full sequence of processing stages required for ellipsis resolution.
A Semantic function of Korean Response Particles as Anaphors
Hae-Kyung Wee 한국언어학회 2019 언어 Vol.44 No.4
This study explores the meaning of Korean responsive particles (RP), ney and aniyo, in comparison to English yes and no, and shows that Korean RPs are anaphoric expressions that refer back to the antecedent proposition available from the preceding question or sentence. Korean RPs are explained based on the combination of Krifka’s (2013) anaphoric approach and Farkas&Roelofseon’s (2012) notion of ‘relative’ function of English RPs. The positive and negative RPs are analyzed as serving anaphoric functions that take the antecedent proposition p and ASSERT(p) and ASSERT(not(p)), respectively. Additionally, it is shown that there is another version of positive RP, namely kiyo, which is structurally and morphologically parallel to the negative aniyo, whose existence can be regarded as evidence for the anaphoric nature of the RPs in Korean. Finally, it is shown that Korean RPs as anaphors can take only one antecedent, introduced by the outermost phrase of the preceding utterance, which explains why they are not ambiguous, whereas English RPs, which can take multiple antecedents, are ambiguous.
