叱 (eumhun 꾸짖을 질 (kkujijeul jil))

1. hanja form^? of 질 (“scold”)

• 질타 (叱咤, jilta, “rebuke”)

Conventionally reconstructed as *-s, after the Middle Korean reflexes.

Generally thought to be from an otherwise unattested Old Chinese dialectal pronunciation of the character that began with *s-.

Minority views include that it is a graphic simplification of a different Chinese character, or that it is a gukja invented in Korea with 𠤎 representing the shape of the tongue while pronouncing /s/ and 口 being a radical that denotes a non-standard character.

叱 (*-s)

1. A consonantal phonogram denoting coda consonant *-s

• 之 (logographic form, in Idu texts)

叱 (*-s)

1. Genitive case marker, chiefly for inanimate nouns.

In Middle Korean, the genitive case marker -ㅅ (Yale: -s) was used for both inanimate nouns and honored animate nouns, while the other genitive marker -의〮 (Yale: -úy) was reserved for non-honored animate nouns.

In the limited Old Korean corpus, 叱 (*-s) appears to be used chiefly for inanimate nouns. Meanwhile, many texts use the genitive 尸 (*-lq), with no evident Middle Korean reflex, for honored nouns such as the Buddha. There is a strong argument that 尸 (*-lq) is an allomorphic variant of 叱 (*-s), representing a phenomenon ancestral to the tensing of the subsequent obstruent that occurred in Middle Korean when -ㅅ (-s) occurred between a sonorant and an obstruent. If true, there was no distinction between Old and Middle Korean in the use of the genitive -s.

Unlike the other Old Korean genitive marker 衣 (*-uy), 叱 (*-s) could follow other case markers.

• Middle Korean: -ㅅ (-s, genitive case marker for inanimate or honored animate nouns)
  • Korean: -ㅅ- (-s-, interfix)

• 衣 (*-uy) (genitive case marker, often for animate nouns)
• 尸 (*-lq) (genitive case marker, chiefly for honored animate nouns; possibly an allomorph of 叱)
