Usage notes

In Middle and Modern Korean, the allomorph taken by the topic marker after a vowel may be 는 (-neun) instead of ㄴ (-n), especially in formal speech. This is the result of reduplication of the topic marker at some point and may not have been present in Old Korean, although the phonologically opaque nature of the orthography makes it difficult to tell.
