The structuring of a sentence into a topic and a comment part is a universal and distinctive phenomenon well known to linguists for centuries. Topic-Comment constructions essentially produce an asymmetry of constituents in a sentence. Karifka (2006) notes that "The Topic refers to something established already, while the Comment adds information to the denotation of the topic" (p.1). Topic-Comment constructions appear through particular syntactic structures in many languages such as the as for constructions in English and Japanese and Korean postpositions known as wa and -(n)un, respectively. Typically, the topic is given, presupposed, or anchored in speech situation. It is something that is referred to by the predicate and located in the sentence-initial position with -(n)un marking in Korean. The particle -(n)un can be attached to all noun phrases (NPs), and it plays an important role in determining the meaning of a given sentence. In some cases, -(n)un marked NPs may receive a topic reading, and in other cases they may receive a contrastive focus reading. When a -(n)un marked NP is placed in the sentence-initial subject position, it generally receives a topic reading. The topic phrase marked by -(n)un receives no prominent intonation and is generally set off from the rest of the sentence by a pause. A contrastive -(n)un phrase, on the other hand, focuses on an element or a proposition in contrast with another element or proposition and it is marked with higher pitch and stress. This paper will examine the semantic and syntactic environment that determine different meanings of -(n)un . In chapter 1, the origin of Topic-Comment structures is to be investigated. In chapter 2, the properties of the Topic-Comment structure will be illustrated. In chapter 3, I demonstrate the conditions of which two different meanings of -(n)un marked NPs, a topic reading and a contrastive focus reading, are realized.
