Korean Relativization Fragment #
@cite{keenan-comrie-1977}
Two relative clause markers:
- Adnominal verb suffix -(n)ɨn, -n, -l with gap (-case, covers SU–OBL)
- Genitive marker -uy (+case, covers GEN only)
Korean has no relative pronouns or complementizers. RCs are prenominal with the verb in adnominal form. NP_rel and its case marker are obligatorily deleted.
Data from @cite{keenan-comrie-1977} Table 1.
