Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to describe the existence or nonexistence of the factivity-factive is defined as judged to be true by the speaker-of the complement proposition in. relation to the structure-complementizers, complement nouns, and (main) predicates- of Korean complement noun constructions. 1n the course of the study, the writer expands the discussion to introduce the semantic features of [Realized] and [Propositional]. According as complements are, in most cases, factive or nonfactive, predicates are classified as factive ([+Factive]), nonfactive ([-Factive]), and neutral ([0Factive]); and complementizers are also classified as {nin} of [+Factive], -ko of [-Factive], and -kohanin and im of [0 Factive]. Complement nouns are classified according to the factivity or nonfactivity of the complements which complement nouns take and according to the possiblity of cooccurrence with {nin}([+Factive], [0Propositional]) or - ko hanin ([0Factive], [+ Propositional]). In this case the feature [Propositional] as well as [Factive] plays an important role. And complement nouns are combined with predicates irrespective of the feature [Factive], resulting in the same factivity value as that which complement nouns prescribe. kes in -{nin} kes and -ko hanin kes turns out to be neither a complementizer nor a proform of other nouns (sasil (fact) etc.), but a most neutral noun which has the features [0 Factive], [0Propositional], and [0Realized].
