문법성과 문법관: 기능주의를 중심으로

Abstract

The grammaticality of a sentence is taken to be different, depending on the view of grammar that the linguist takes in describing linguistic phenomena. Newmeyer (1983) makes this point in the context of generative grammar. This paper shows that in functional linguistics as well, functional grammarians' grammaticality judgment of sentences is also determined by their conception of a grammar. For this purpose, functionalists Kuno(1987), Kuno and Takami (1993) and Givõn (1993) will be discussed with regard to how they use the symbol * in their linguistic description. A comparison is made between their grammatical description and autonomy functional (Prince, 1991) description of certain linguistic phenomena such as picture noun reflexives and definiteness in conjoined NPs. In addition, it will be proposed that we use the term ungrammatical to ref er to the linguistic phenomena which do not follow from the rules or principles of a grammar: be they derived from autonomous grammar or functional grammar.
