Une classe de verbes transitifs en coréen: Verbes de Contact-Corporel
The class of corporal-contact verbs (Vcc) is a set of verbs which designate an action of corporal contact between two humans or between an human and an object. Constructions of Vcc have an human subject and, for direct object, a noun phrase (NP) of type N a -gen N b where N b denotes a body-part (N bp ) or an object-part (N op ). The specific combination between this type of NP and the Vcc trigers a restructuration that relates this sentence to another sentence containing a double accusative sequence. We can syntactically distinguish Vcc from all other superficially identical transitive verbs through different factors related to the restructuration (inalienable relation between the two elements of NP, their separability, their metonymic relation, appropriation between N bp /N op and verb, variation of postpositions between -lul and -lo) and also through different criteria related to the interpretation of corporal-contact (insertion of the adverbial sequence denoting a duration, prohibition of the contrastive sentence).
