    "title": "Revisiting Korean Case Particles <em>poko</em> and <em>tele</em>: A Linguistic Typological Perspective",
    "subtitle": null,
    "abstract": "<p>This study offers a typological analysis of the Korean case particles <em>poko</em> and <em>tele</em>, traditionally treated as dative markers. Drawing on corpus data and construction grammar, it identifies four major constructions where these particles appear: speech quotation, naming, evaluative, and causative. Rather than marking indirect objects or recipients like typical datives (<em>eykey</em>, <em>hanthey</em>), <em>poko</em> and <em>tele</em> function primarily as addressee or goal markers. The study introduces the 'on-the-spot' constraint, requiring that the referent be directly involved in the speech context. Crosslinguistic evidence supports the grammaticalization paths SEE &gt; ALLATIVE (for <em>poko</em>) and ACCOMPANY &gt; ALLATIVE (for <em>tele</em>), aligning with well-attested typological trajectories. By mapping their semantic and syntactic behaviors, the paper argues for reclassifying <em>poko</em> and <em>tele</em> as specialized allative markers with pragmatic constraints. The findings refine our understanding of Korean case marking and contribute to broader typological models of grammaticalization across languages.</p>",
