The purpose of this paper is to investigate the linguistic factors for null object phenomena in English and the frequency of use of null object vs. realized object in COCA corpus depending on the definiteness of the objects. In this paper, we classify the objects to talk about the factors for null objects in this way: an indefinite object, a definite object, an object with its complement and a reflexive pronoun object. It is claimed that the deletion of an indefinite object is usually not context-dependent since it is predictable, while that of a definite object is context-dependent since the readers are expected to recover the definite objects for themselves. It is also argued that the verbs in the category of definite or indefinite objects have different frequency of use for null objects in the COCA corpus. The verbs which show the most frequent null objects are ‘sing’(71%) and ‘fail’(76%) in indefinite and definite object classes, respectively.
