국어의 모순어에 대하여 = A Study on Contronymy in Korean

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This paper aims to discuss the characteristics of contronymy in Korean. A polysemy is a word with several, related meanings. But some polysemy have the exactly opposite meaning together. We call this words the contronymy. For example 'Siwonhada' is used to express cold soup or hot soup. Which one among the opposite meanings the contronymy express depends on context. There are two types of Contronymy in Korean. The first type is the case that a word itself has the exactly opposite meaning, i.e. Jjochda, Chilchilmajda, Jjeolda, Seolsayag, Juchaeg. The second type is the case that it has the exactly opposite meaning when specific constituent of sentence is combined with it, i.e. Gogsigeul palda, Hagwoneul kkeunhda, Gugmuli Siwonhada, Jaliga Issda. The contronymy are caused by the vagueness of meaning, the meaning contagion, the results of diachronic change, the coexistence of cause and effect, and the existence of ellipsis components.
