Jeong, Haeja. “Morpho-syntactic account of bound morpheme ‘-ge’ in the resultative construction in Korean.” Studies in English Language & Literature. 37.4 (2011): 303-25. This paper is to analyze ‘-ge’ which is assumed here as a delimiter affix in the resultative construction in Korean in terms of morpho-syntactic view. Despite a variety of status of ‘-ge’ morphologically and syntactically, I propose ‘-ge’ should be classified into 3 types: derivational, inflectional affix and a stem-extender. The ‘-ge’ appearing in the resultative construction in Korean is assumed to be inserted in the syntactic position which has a sister node having an abstract clitic position with a feature of [+delimiter]. This proposal shows to bring a parsimonious account of the properties of resultative construction in Korean based on the hypothesis Snyder(1995). With this track, the affix ‘-ge’ is shown to be responsible for checking telicity, which is one of aspectual features and merges with adjectival/(a few group of) verbal phrase, resulting in a resultative interpretation with the help of main predicates. For the incompatibility with resultative construction with some groups, I argue the application of Tortora’s Further Specification Constraint is better one to explain its ungrammaticality.
