"epenthesis" and "reduplicative prefix", which are very
similar to those applied to roots for the infixation of
-eun- discussed in 2.1.5.1.2.
[i]. Epenthesis. One-syllable words beginning with
consonant clusters [CI] or [Cr], where C is a stop, are made
two-syllable stems by epenthesizing the vowel [eji] between
the two consonants of the clusters.
trom 'to kick with one's heel (tr.);' teumeurom 'to
kick with one's heel (int.)'
olet 'to wind a rope around something (tr.);'
aeumeulet 'to wind with a rope (int.)'
101. Hana asi teumeurom.
NEG allowed kick (int.)
'No kicking please.'
[ii]. Reduplicative Prefix. One-syllable words
beginning with a consonant or a consonant cluster in the
form of [Ch], where C is a stop, are made two-syllable stems
by adding a reduplicative prefix. For example, a
monosyllabic root such as sek 'to weed (tr.)' is made
disyllabic by adding seu- (reduplicative prefix) to the
root, resulting in *seusek. -gum- is infixed between the
initial s_ and gu.: seumeusek 'to weed (int.)'
tak 'to chop (tr.);' teumeutak 'to chop (int.)'
koh 'to cut (tr.);' keumeukoh 'to cut (int.)'
