Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to delves into the paradigmatic relationships and syntagmatic order of components within costume names listed in 'Costume Balgi[件記].' For this purpose, we looked at the principles of writing ‘Costume Balgi’ through the format of Costume Balgi, and analyzed the components that make up the costume name included in Costume Balgi. Then we categorize each component into groups and explore their paradigmatic relationships. This not only classifies the costume names used in the royal court by vocabulary but also confirms how individuals from the late 19th to the early 20th century perceived and distinguished costumes based on vocabulary related to color, refining stats of the yarn, fabric, manufacturing methods, and types of clothing. Additionally, by examining the syntagmatic order of components within costume names and identifying the cognitive principles of compounding that influenced the order of combination, we gained insights into the cognitive system of understanding costumes that people of that time possessed. This study sheds light on one aspect of the cognitive framework regarding the perception of costumes that people of that era had by examining the paradigmatic relationships and syntagmatic order of components that constitute the units for discriminating and recognizing costumes, namely, the components of costume names.
