Usage notes
껌뻑 (kkeomppeok) is the yin vowel, or dark vowel, form of 깜빡 (kkamppak).
In contemporary Korean, the yin vowels refer to /ʌ/, /e/, /u/, and often /i/. In Korean ideophones and sensory words, forms with these vowels have a connotation of darkness, largeness, murkiness, bluntness, old age, or negativeness.
껌뻑 (kkeomppeok) is the intensive consonant form of 껌벅 (kkeombeok).
In many Korean ideophones and sensory words, forms with consonants which are aspirated or tensed are intensive; they emphasize the degree to which the description is true.
