- Abstract
- In this talk I describe some aspects of theories and repeat the obvious claim that theories as opposed to data are essential to linguistic science as both its aims and means. I first point out that earlier Korean linguists Chu Sigyong, Pak Sungbin and Choi Hyonbae were not data-bound, but that they all emphasized theoretical or systematic approaches to the study of Korean. I then explicate Websters definition of theory, a formulation of apparent relationships andjor underlying principles of certain observed phenomena which has been verified to some degree." Unlike laws, theories may contain theoretical construct (e.g. categories, structure, transformation) and have greater expressive power.
