피동ㆍ사동과 관련한 국어사전의 뜻풀이에 대하여

초록

When defining the word related to passive and causative in Korean dictionary, the meaning of headword can be explained by linking them to other related words. The link could be expressed into two forms; the one is ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb of A’ and the other is ‘passive formㆍcausative form of A.’ Whichever the dictionary takes, the important thing is that the content to which it refer should be correct. However the format of ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb of A’ and ‘passive formㆍcausative form of A’ is problematic because the definition of headword does not contain semantic information but syntactic or morphological information. Generic concept ‘passive formㆍcausative form’ and ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb’ refers to respectively morphological and syntactic level but specific concept ‘A’ refers to semantic level. These morphological, syntactic and semantic level can not be a same dimension so the size of their denotation can not be compared. The way of transform syntactic dimension ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb’ and morphological dimension ‘passive formㆍcausative form’ into semantic dimension is removing ‘verb’ and ‘form’ from ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb’ and ‘passive formㆍcausative form’ respectively. Therefore the expression ‘passive verbㆍcausative verb of A’ or ‘passive formㆍcausative form of A’ ought be changed into ‘passiveㆍcausative of A.’
