Abstract

This study investigated the syntactic and semantic characteristics of two linguistic elements ‘-gess-(-겠-)’ and ‘-l geusi-(-ㄹ 것이-)’, which have similar meanings and distributions through semantic network analysis. Since ‘-gess-’ and ‘-l geusi-’ both represent the meaning of [guess] and [intention], the semantic network was analyzed by dividing them into two. As a result, there was a difference in the preceding and following components, which are mainly combined in both [guess] and [intention], of ‘-gess-’ and ‘-l geusi-’. Through this, it was possible to find out in what aspect the meaning of these two linguistic elements has a distinctiveness. This study explored a new method of Korean linguistic research by adding the latest big data analysis techniques to the previous corpus linguistic research achievements. This study is significant in that it accurately describes the connection relationship between specific language elements that have not been revealed before.
