Koops(2004) examines locative constructions, posture verb constructions, and motion verb constructions in Present-Day English(PDE) to decide whether those constructions, which are best attested as grammaticalized progressive aspect constructions, also show the properties of progressive aspect constructions. The observation of PDE reveals that those constructions in PDE show imperfect aspectual meanings at an incipient level. This paper examines the same constructions in Present-Day Korean which are typologically unrelated to PDE, revealing that they similarly have the imperfective aspect of duration, repetition, and/or frequentativeness. The results strongly suggest that the same paths of grammaticalization are followed by diverse languages, revealing the linguistic motivation of the grammaticalization.
