I’m looking for a study buddy 😊 you can DM me on IG @yeng_liit
I sent you a DM in your IG account! 🙂
Just finished all of level 2!!! However I still have problems with my listening skills… I only understood half of the dialogue..
this may be really stupid, but like why do we nominalize verbs in korean? is it bc it will be more clearer to the listener or…
We do it in English too! For example, we have the verb, “to amaze,” but if you nominalize it, it becomes “amazement.” If you nominalize verbs, you can “talk about the action without actually doing it”; with nominalization, you can talk “about” verbs like cooking, singing, etc. It’s a bit confusing because “cooking” can be a noun and a verb, but the example of amaze/amazement is a clearer example of how this works. There’s a lot that native English speakers (me included) don’t realize about their own language because it’s a big jumble of other languages 🙂
Hai there, I am Septi..
Is it a kind of gerund as in english? I got confuse with the present Progressive… Whats the difference?
In lesson 23, sample sentences, it’s says for “I am going to watch” it’s bol-kkeo-ye-yo. But isn’t it Bo-reul-kkeo-ye-yo as the verb stem ends in a vowel ?
Ohhh no no… Uve got it a bit confused. Bo-reul ko-ye-yo isn’t right “reul” is object marking particle. And just one reul koyeyo is the verb ending for future tense…. So in summary : reul (2 L’s) is object marking particle
L koyeyo (one L) is future tense ending
볼거에요 is the correct one. Verb stems ending with a vowel (보다, 가다, 자다) are followed by -ㄹ 거예요.
보다 [bo-da] + -ㄹ/을 거예요 = 볼 거예요. [bol kkeo-ye-yo.]
Oh yeah! Sorry, I got confused 😅. Thank you!
A SPECIAL thanks goes to the TTMIK Team ! You are the best guys ! And to my two favourite teachers, Hyunwoo and Kyeong-eun, I luv u !!! 💜
Hey ! I finally reached level 2 yeay !!! And I am looking for a study buddy ! I am not that boring istg ! Incase you’re interested here is my Twitter acc @LenaLoves_1D feel free to dm me 🥺 !
How to say “for something”? Can someone please translate these sentences?
Eg: Thank you for talking to me.
I did it for her.
Also, how to say “because”?
Eg: I study korean because I love it.
I couldn’t talk to you because I was busy.
왜냐하면 is “because”
… 때문에 is “because of …”
말해줘서 고마워 means thank you for talking to me
그녀를 위해? im not sure about this
때문에 you can use it for “because” but i still don’t know how to use it in a sentence
Thank you!
I’ve been spending my time in this quarantine learning Korean. I finished this level, so I’m grateful to TTMIK for all lessons.
Omg i finally reached level 2, who wants to be my study buddy? I’ve made a telegram chat room (I have friends there from level 1) feel free to join if you want a buddy. Here’s the link https://t.me/joinchat/AAAAAETOEJcFJVZgqawPtA :))
In lesson 15, there is a verb 들었어요. But the root verb for ‘to hear ‘ is 듣다. Then why it is not 듣었어요 ?
Hi, because 듣다 is one of the examples of irregulars. Wherein if the stem ends in “ㄷ” it will be changed to ㄹ I hope I have helped you.
I am not so sure on my answer in lesson 6. Is it, “졸렸어 자고 싶어요. 그런데 내일이 시험이에요.”? Send help please.
“I’m tired and I want to sleep. However, I have an exam tomorrow.”
졸려서 자고 싶어요. 그런데 내일 시험이 있어요.
