Description
This book provides an original and coherent analysis of a major part of the Korean tense/aspect/evidentiality system. In spite of a large prior literature on these issues, many problems have remained unsolved. Kyung-Sook Chung’s book contributes novel empirical findings, as well as new analytical insights which have implications not just for Korean, but for natural language more generally.
