An, Young-ran. 2013. Gradience in the Korean Reduplication. Korean Journal of Linguistics, 38-4, 921-943. Korean has a type of total reduplication in which the base begins in a vowel and a consonant is inserted in the reduplicant. This paper argues that while the choice of an inserted consonant is not completely predictable, it is also not arbitrary. That is, the Korean total reduplication data illustrate the OCP effect which requires the inserted consonant to be dissimilar from adjacent consonants. However, the inserted consonant and its neighboring consonants are not distinguished across the board in all the features. This gradient OCP effect in the consonant insertion in reduplication was also verified in the experiment conducted on the Korean native speakers with nonce morphemes, given as bases, in which they were asked to write down what they considered as a natural reduplicant, when presented with a given base. The results showed that the OCP was in operation to the extent that the inserted consonants tended to be nonidentical to the existing base consonants. This tendency shows that the evidenced OCP is not categorical, but gradient. (Korea Christian University)
