Usage notes

edit

果 follows the grammatical rules of its Middle Korean descendant, which differ from Modern Korean usage. Thus it may be followed by other case markers, such as . Furthermore, in both Old and Middle Korean, "A and B" is expressed as A-kwa B-kwa, instead of Modern Korean A-kwa B.

Unlike in Middle and Modern Korean, 果 did not take any allomorph following a vowel. The Middle Korean allomorph (Yale: -Gwa) was produced by the lenition of Old Korean *k to /ɣ/ between vowels.

Descendants

edit
  • Middle Korean: (-kwa)
    • Korean: (-gwa)
  • Middle Korean: (-Gwa) (allomorph following a vowel, produced by intervocalic lenition of *-k)
    • Korean: (-wa)
