Etymology 1[edit]
From Middle Korean 야〮 (Yale: -yá), as in ᄒᆞ〮야〮 (Yale: hóy-á).
It is believed that at an ancient stage, the stem of ᄒᆞ다〮 (Yale: hò-tá) was actually *ᄒᆡ (Yale: *hoy-). At that stage, the infinitive of the stem would have regularly been ᄒᆞ〮야〮 (Yale: hó-yá). However, this older infinitive was retained even when the stem was monophthongized in other contexts, producing the irregular allomorph of the infinitive suffix (Vovin 2010, p. 27).
Suffix[edit]
여 • (-yeo)
- (formal) Alternative form of 어 (-eo, infinitive/connective suffix), used after the stem of 하다 (hada).
- (North Korea, formal) Alternative form of 어 (-eo, infinitive/connective suffix), used after i- and y-stem verbs
Usage notes[edit]
- In less formal language, 하여 (hayeo) is always contracted to 해 (hae).
- Because the intimate style is never formal by definition, 하여 (hayeo) can never replace 해 (hae) in such contexts.
- For the second sense, i- and y-stem verbs include stems ending in ㅣ (i), ㅐ (ae), ㅔ (e), ㅚ (oe), ㅟ (wi), and ㅢ (ui).
Alternative forms[edit]
Etymology 2[edit]
