Kim, Minjung, Chung, Inkie. 2017. Locality Condition on the cwu- ~ talAllomorphy of GIVE in Korean. Studies in Generative Grammar, 27-3, 611-630. This study argues that the verb form tal- is one of the suppletive allomorphs of the verb GIVE in Korean and presents a Distributed Morphology account for the suppletion of cwu- ~ tal- for GIVE and the locality mechanism related to this morphosyntactic alternation. First, this study provides the precise morphosyntactic environment of tal-. Second, it presents the situations where this expected suppletion is blocked by an intervening element between the root and the conditioning element(s). Then, it presents a Distributed Morphology analysis of the cwu- ~ talsuppletion. Based on these observations and analysis, we argue that the apparent long-distance conditioning of this tal- suppletion is actually limited within the domain of word as suggested by Bobaljik (2012).
