"text": "'Ontology' has recently become one of the most attractive research areas. Even though the notion originates from philosophy, there have been many researches within AI or Computer Science. Ontology is usually defined as \"an explicit specification of a conceptualization,\" where a \"conceptualization is an abstract, simplified view of the world that we wish to represent for some purpose\" (Gruber 1993: 199) . But many constructed ontologies are not consistent, because the conceptualization is different according to the interests of researchers. Therefore most ontologists make use of languages which are considered to reflect the objects of conceptualization objectively.",

"text": "If we consider that an element of conceptualization is a concept, it is followed that the notion of ontology is related closely with languages. As we know, the modern linguistics is based on the 'meaning triangle' (Ogden and Richards 1923) . At the triangle, the connection of a symbol with an object is mediated by a concept, and each element constructs its own system. So the system of symbols, i.e. a network of words, is similar to the system of concepts, i.e. an ontology. Therefore we can assume, that an ontology can be constructed indirectly by means of words. The network of words is often called 'Language Ontology'. Nickles et al. (2007) considers Language Ontology as an answer to the following question: \"What kinds of things do people talk as if there are?\" Further the notion of Language Ontology is defined as \"a conceptualization or categorization of what normal everyday human language can talk about\" (Zaefferer 2002).",

He took the third-order entities to be \"such abstract entities as proposition, which are outside space and time\" (ibid. 443p.).

The size of selected connectives is 28 tokens which correspond to 20 types. In the case of suffixes, there are no researches which present the whole list. Therefore we collected the items from the tagged corpus 'Sejong corpus'.

As a starting point, we follow Chang (1995) where the suffix '-myen' is considered as the most general suffix among the suffixes representing a causal relation. In addition to '-myen', there are suffixes '-nula'/'-killay' which represent a causal relation, but behave themselves differently.As we see below, the latter group expresses a causal relation on the basis of a temporal connection between events. 4 (6) (a) syawe-lul ha-myen kipun-i sangkway-ha-ta. shower-ACC do-SUFF feeling-NOM refresh-do-DEC 'If you take a shower, then you feel refreshed.' (b) # syawe-lul ha-nula kipun-i sangkway-ha-ta. shower-ACC do-SUFF feeling-NOM refresh-do-DEC 'I feel refreshed to take a shower.' (c) syawe-lul ha-nula cenhwa-lul mos-pat-ass-ta shower-ACC do-SUFF phone-ACC not-take-PAST-DEC 'I couldn't answer the phone, because I took a shower.' Let us examine the suffix '-myen' in details. If we apply the test of Knott (1996) to Korean, it is revealed that there are subordinate connectives '-kulayse' and '-lyeko' under the connective 'myen'. The tests below show such a sub-classification.(7) (a) 1-e 2-lul teha-myen 3-i-ta. 1-ACC 2-OBJ plus-SUFF 3-COP-DEC '1 plus 2 is 3.' (b) 1-e 2-lul teha-yss-ta. kulayse 3-i-ta. 1-ACC 2-OBJ plus-PAST-DEC. so 3-NOM-DEC 'I plus 1 to 2. so it is 3 now.' (8) (a) kongpu-lul yelsimhi ha-myen cohun sengcek-ul et-unu-ta. study-OBJ hard do-SUFF good grade-OBJ get-PRES-DEC 'If you study hard, you will get good grade.' (b) cohun sengcek-ul et-ulyeko kongpu-lul yelsimhi ha-yss-ta.good grade-OBJ get-SUFF study-OBJ hard do-PAST-DEC 'To get the good grade, I studied hard.' From this observation we can conclude that there are sub-concepts such as 'cause' with 'kulayse' and 'purpose' with '-lyeko' under the concept 'condition' with '-myen'. Furthermore, the following tests show that the two sub-concepts are inter-exclusive each other.(9) (a) \u221a pay-ka kop-ass-ta. kulayse pap-ul mek-ess-ta. stomach-NOM hungry-PAST-DEC so meal-OBJ eat-PAST-DEC 'I was hungry. So, I had a meal,' (b) # pap-ul mek-uleko pay-ka kop-ass-ta. meal-OBJ eat-SUFF stomach-NOM hungry-PAST-DEC 'I was hungry to had a meal..' (10) (a) \u221a pap-ulmek-uleko sang-ul chali-ess-ta. meal-OBJ eat-SUFF Finally the concept 'cause' can be specified into a more concrete concept, as we see in (11). That concept is realized by the connectives such as 'kyelkwuk', 'hanun swu epsi', etc.(11) (a) pay-ka kop-ass-ta. kulayse pap-ul mek-ess-ta. stomach-NOM hungry-PAST-DEC so meal-OBJ eat-PAST-DEC 'I was hungry. So, I had a meal,' (b) pay-ka kop-ass-ta. kyelkuk pap-ul mek-ess-ta. stomach-NOM hungry-PAST-DEC. finally meal-OBJ eat-PAST-DEC 'I was hungry. Finally, I had a meal,' From the tests above, we can get the following middle-level ontology which is connected with the concept 'cause-consequence'/'condition-consequence' of the upper-level ontology (Fig. 1 ).
