The Re-examination on the Establishment and Status of the Predicate Clause -Focused on the Related Unit with the Predicate Clause in the Past School Grammar Textbooks-

초록

The purpose of this study is to re-examine the establishment and status of the predicate clause focused on the related unit with the predicate clause, 'predicate, predicate-bu' in the past school grammar textbooks. As to the way of explaining the double nominative case construction, there were various theories like complement-extension, topic establishment as sentence constituent, the establishment of predicate clause in the past school grammar textbooks. Although there were the different way of explaining the double nominative case construction, the predicate-bu, the mediate unit between structure grammar and generative grammar was constituted in the all past school grammar textbooks. In particular, the predicate clause based on the predicate-bu is explained in the viewpoint of aboutness: a sentence is divided into two parts, 'something to be predicated' and ‘predicate', therefore the predicate clause corresponds to the 'comment' of topic-comment in the information structure. The predicate(predication) of the predicate clause must be distinguished with the predicate as sentence constituents of verbs and adjectives and the unique function as ‘the predication about topic’ is observed in the predicate clause of the past school grammar textbooks.
