Etymology

[edit]

Sino-Korean word from 去聲 (high pitch) + (not) + (continue) + (thrice), coined by Korean linguist Kim Wan-jin, who also coined 훈주음종 (訓主音從, hunjueumjong) and other important words in Korean historical linguistics.

Examples

(cìp, house, low-pitch noun) > 지비〮며〮 (cìp-ímyé, it is a house)

블〮 (púl, fire, high-pitch noun) > 브〮리며〮 (púl-ìmyé, it is a fire)

Pronunciation

[edit]
  • (SK Standard/Seoul) IPA(key): [ˈkɘ(ː)sʰʌ̹ŋbuɾjʌ̹nsʰa̠m]
  • Phonetic hangul: [(ː)]
    • Though still prescribed in Standard Korean, most speakers in both Koreas no longer distinguish vowel length.
