Abstract
Korean is a wh-in situ language where the wh-expression stays in situ with an oblig-atory Q-particle marking its interrogative scope. This paper briefly reviews some basic properties of the Wh-questin construction in Korean and shows how a typed feature structure grammar, HPSG (Pollard and Sag 1994, Sang et al. 2003), together with the notions of ``type hierarchy`` and ``constructions``, can provide a robust basis for parsing the wh-construction in the language. We show that this system induces robust syntactic structures as well as enriched semantic representations for real-time applications such as machine transla-tion, which require deep processing of the phenomena concerned.
