- Abstract
- From a typological perspective Korean in known as a dependent-marking language. So the general discussion of case in Korean has been focused on the case particles which help to realize the grammatical relations between predicate and arguments.
But, in the benefactive constructions such as 아이에게 빵을 구워주다(bake a child bread), 그에게 책을 사주다(buy a book for him), the PP(=postposition phrases) headed by 에게 is optional, whereas the auxiliary verb -(어)주다 is obligatory in terms of the realization of benefactive complements. This observation leads us to hypothesize that the auxiliary verb -(어)주다 can be used as head-marking element to represent the grammatical relation benefaction. In parallel, the auxiliary verbs -(어)가다/오다 can be used as a sort of head-marking case markers to trigger the realization of the locative/directive complements.
We argue that Korean has mechanisms for differentiating locative/directive cases using auxiliary verbs -(어)가다/오다, in addition to the nominal locative/directive case markers 로, 에서, concluding with prudence that Korean also has a room for being classified as a head-marking language.
