This study aimed to identify the meanings and syntactic structures of the Late Middle Korean ¡®man¡¯, which is the antecedent form of the Modern Korean particle ¡®man¡¯ and the bound noun ¡®man¡¯. The research materials used were ¡°Gugeupbang¡± and ¡°Gugeupganibang¡±, which are evaluated to reflect the language of the 15th century. The meanings of Late Middle Korean ¡®man¡¯ were broadly divided into {degree} and {limitation}, following previous research, and sub-classifications were attempted for each. In particular, ¡®man¡¯ of {degree} was classified into four dimensions: physical dimension, event development dimension, functional dimension, and cognitive dimension. In these meanings, syntactic structures of ¡®man¡¯ constructions that are difficult to encounter in Modern Korean could be found. There were not many examples of ¡®man¡¯ of {limitation}, and most of them had syntactic structures that could be used in Modern Korean as well. {Maximum}, which can be seen as a special type of range limitation, was established, and constructions with the same meaning as {only} in Modern Korean could be found. Regarding {only}, it was considered worthwhile to explore the possibility that it developed in the context of ¡°do VP to the extent of NP and exclude the rest¡±, and it was considered possible that {maximum} developed in the context of limiting the event development process.
