영문 초록

The so-called ciman construction requires the obligatory introduction of the contrastive (topic) marker nun to the relevant element in the subsequent clause when its Minor Argument (i.e., sonkalak 'finger' in Tom-uy sonkalak 'Tom-GEN finger') undergoes null pronominalization (i.e., pro). The contrastive marker nun attached to the relevant nominal in the subsequent clause induces its contrastive counterpart to be retrieved from the preceding clause. If it is identified, the next step is that the contrastive nun-marked remnant allows null pronominalization of the Minor Argument (i.e., Minor Argument Pronominalization (MAP) in An's (2012a) term). Though the preceding genitive phrase allows a multiple case marking construction (i.e., MCM), the nun-marked remnant in the subsequent clause doesn't always allow MAP. It permits MAP only when it has ownership of the Minor Argument. This is in accordance with the observation that the nun-marked goal in the subsequent clause of the ciman construction allows MAP only when its counterpart is marked by the accusative case in the sense that the accusative-marked goal, for example, Chelswu-lul 'Chelswu-ACC', is also a prospective possessor of the referent of the direct object (i.e., Minor Argument here).
