Korean abounds in the examples of reduplication. Along with full morpheme reduplication, Korean also exhibits an interesting set of partial reduplication. The goal of the present paper is to focus on a certain set of partial reduplication and propose a prosodic account of the derivation of the partially reduplicated forms. Following Marantz (1982) generally, I propose that the unmarked cases of partial reduplication involve the affixation of a CV(monosyllabic) or a VCCVC(bisyllabic) template. I claim that affixation of a syllable does not exist in Korean, whether the affixation takes place before the base, internally, or after the base. I also show that Korean exhibits the marked case of the association between the phonemic melody and CV slots: from right to left. (Namseoul University)
