Kim, Ki-tae. 2014. Macrolinguistically Specified References to Oriental Medications in Korean Oriental Medical Discourse: Rationale and Forms. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 39-2, 251-273. The present study explores five types of macrolinguistically specified references to Oriental medications within the discourse of Korean Oriental Medicine and the rationale behind them. They include unmarked, yet contextually unambiguous references to: ● medicinal materials and ingredients (e.g., sahyang ‘moschus,’ nokyong ‘cornu cervi pantotrichum,' nokkak ‘cornu cervi,’ etc.) ● the dosage forms of Oriental medications (e.g., thangyak ‘decocted liquefied extract,' hwanyak 'pill, tablet, pellet' and set prescriptions such as kongcintan and chengwuithang) ● the medicinal units of measure such as chep and cey ● the decoction types such as chothang ‘first decoction,' and caythang ’second decoction' ● poyak 'tonic.' They are not overtly specified as Oriental medications, yet almost invariably refer to Oriental ones without any Oriental markings no matter whether they emerge in the discourse of Korean Oriental Medicine or that of Western biomedicine. In other words, they are otherwise unmarked, but macrolinguistically disambiguated as Oriental even in an apparent absence of biomedical voices. (Keimyung University)
