Abstract

In this paper, I argue that Korean "tense" consonants are geminates which occupy two C positions in a CV-tier. This argument is supported by phonetic evidence such as a longer closure duration of the tense consonants and phonological evidence such as the distribution, integrity, and inalterability of Korean tense consonants as well as the accent placement rule which is sensitive to syllable weight in Korean.
