This article is intended to analyze the usage of -gi, -canh-, and -ketun in actual discourse, focusing on the speaker's assumption about the listener's state of knowledge. For this purpose, new/old information in each use is identified through an information-structured approach. When analyzing the speaker’s assumptions about the listener’s state of knowledge, it is important to note that the speaker’s assumptions can be wrong. The listener responds by ‘denying' or ‘fixing' the speaker's words when the speaker's assumption is wrong. At this point, the information status of the sentence is changed. Depending on the listener's reaction, the information delivered by the speaker can be changed from new information to old information, or vice versa. In this kind of continuous conversation procedure, shared knowledge between the speaker and the listener can be newly created.
