Abstract:

Using the framework of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), this
pioneering book provides the first comprehensive account of Korean
grammar, building foundations for an engagement with Korean texts
across a range of spoken and written registers and genres. It treats
grammar as a meaning-making resource, comprising experiential
resources for construing reality, interpersonal resources for enacting
social relations, textual resources for composing coherent discourse,
and logical resources for linking clauses. It deals not only with
clause systems and structures but also focuses on their realisation as
groups and phrases (and clause rank particles), and the realisation of
these groups and phrases in words (including clitics and relevant
suffixation). Its concluding chapter demonstrates how this grammar can
be applied – for teaching Korean as a foreign language and for
translation and interpreting studies. This book is essential reading
for scholars and students of Asian languages and linguistics and
functional approaches to grammar description.
