We present results of four experiments that examined the role of prosodic boundaries in sentence comprehension of syntactically ambiguous constructions in Korean. Considering the fact that there has been relatively less work on languages other than English on this topic, it will be interesting to see how the previous findings of prosodic effects on sentence comprehension will be manifested in this language. The main focus in this study was to see how prosodic structures interact with the head-final and pro-drop nature of this language. Results show robust effects of prosodic boundaries on resolving syntactically ambiguous sentences, confirming previous findings on the role of prosody on sentence comprehension.
