[ii]. Reduplicative prefix. This method is used for
words beginning with a consonant or a consonant cluster in
the form of [Ch], where C is a stop or a liquid. A
reduplicative prefix is formed by copying the initial
consonant of the word and epenthesizing an [aa] between this
consonant and the previous initial consonant of the word,
-eun- is infixed inside this reduplicative prefix.
As an illustration, infixation of -eun- into a verb
such as sek 'to weed' is done by infixing -eun- into the
created two-syllable stem *seusek (seu- (reduplicative
prefix) plus the root sek). -eun- is infixed between the
initial a and au of the reduplicative prefix, resulting in
seuneusek 'weeding, the space where weeding takes place, the
state of weeding, the result of weeding.'
tak 'to chop;' teuneutak 'thing which is chopped, the
chopping'
gom 'to turn upside down, to used a bowl-like fish
trap;' oeuneuqom 'a bowl-like fish trap'
khop 'to cover with a hemispherical object;' keuneukhop
'thing which is covered with this object, the way of
covering something with this object'
