초록

In this squib, I examine the distribution of the ending –e in Korean, which shows up in a number of heterogeneous environments. Traditionally, -e has been assumed to be a sentence-final ending, a conjunction, and/or a complementizer. I argue that it is in fact not any of these elements and that there is only one kind of –e in the grammar of Korean. That is, in all the environments where it shows up, -e is a morphological closer in the sense of Kang (1988) that is postsyntactically inserted to support a [+V] stem to make it morphologically legitimate.
