Etymology 3

Unknown. It was not attested in texts from the 15th century, and its first attestation has been variously placed at 1572 CE[1] or mid-17th century[2]. It was initially a subject particle, of limited distribution and used in a complementary manner to —이 (-i). The development of its usage is as follows:[3]

  1. Since the mid-17th century: used after nouns ending in -i or -y,
    e.g. pwuli-ka ("mouth"), nay-ka ("scent"), poy-ka ("boat");
  2. Since the mid-18th century: used after nouns ending in vowels/semivowels other than -i,
    e.g. ca-ka ("one who"), soyngswo-ka, nwongso-ka ("farm work");
  3. During the end of the 18th century: used briefly in the form of double particle -i/yka after nouns ending in vowels/semivowels other than -i,
    e.g. to-yka ("road"), inkwu-yka ("population"), nwongso-yka ("farm work").

Various theories exist regarding its origin:

  1. Developed from the interrogative particle —가 (-ga);[4]
  2. Developed from the vocative case particle —하 (-ha)/—아 (-a);[5]
  3. Developed from the connective ending —다가 (-daga);[6]
  4. Developed from the verb 가— (ga-, “to go”);[7]
  5. Borrowed from the Japanese nominative particle が (ga).[8]

Particle

가 • (ga)

  1. Indicates the subject of a sentence.(Compare with Japanese が)
    그렇지만, 내가 펜을 갖고 있을텐데…
    geureochiman, naega peneul gatgo isseultende…

  2. Indicates the subjective complement of a sentence, usually used with 되다 (doeda, “become”) or 아니다 (anida, “be not”).
Usage notes
  • 가 (ga) indicates the subject of the verb in the sentence, as opposed to the object, which *를 (reul) indicates. See also 는 (neun), which indicates the topic of the sentence.
  • 가 (ga) is used only after words ending with a vowel. After words ending with a consonant, 이 (i) is used instead.
