Yes/No Korean Questions

Extension of this ask.

When answering these questions, you have to answer the Korean way; we have to think of if we agree or disagree with the statement. Here are some examples:

ENG:

A: You aren’t taking the bus today, right? B: No (I’m not taking the bus), I’m going to walk.

But in Korean, we have to think of the whole statement in order to answer. Example:

KOR:

A: 버스를 안 타러 갈 거죠? - you aren’t taking the bus, right? B(1): 네, 걸어 갈게요 - yes (I agree that I’m not taking the bus), I’m going to walk B(2): 아니요, 버스를 타러 갈게요 - no (I disagree that I’m not taking the bus), I’m going to take the bus.

But English is so complicated, because we can have “no yeah/yeah no” answers, so…just remember that in Korean, you’re either agreeing with the entire statement that the person said (네) or disagreeing (아니요). Here’s another example:

A: 학생이 아니죠? - you’re not a student, right? B(1): 네, 학생이 아니에요 - yes (I agree that I’m not a student), I’m not a student. B(2): 아니요, 학생이에요 - no (I disagree that I’m not a student) I am a student.

Hope that helps! Happy Learning :)

What the different between 할수있다 and 할수있어??

할 수 있어 is the plain, informal present tense form meaning “[subject - I, you, he, she, they etc,] can do it.”

할 수 있어 comes from 할 수 있다, which is the plain dictionary form meaning “to be able to do it.” But 할 수 있다 can be used on its own too and means the same thing as 할 수 있어! It just has a slightly different nuance. When an adjective stem (like 있다 in this case) is just left as it is in a sentence, it’s called the narrative form and you typically see it in books and stuff. It’s basically used to narrate what’s going on without really expecting a response in return. I recommend checking out my lesson about the narrative form below for more details! Hope this helps! 화이팅!

Level 6 / Lesson 3: -(ㄴ/는)다 (Narrative Form)

길 찾기 - Finding the way

이쪽 - This way 그쪽 - That way 저쪽 - That way (over there) 오른쪽 - Right side 왼쪽 - Left side 안 - Inside 옆 - Next 쭉 - Straight 똑바로 - Straight 계단 - Stairs / steps 근처 -Nearby -(으)로 - To… (place / direction) 올라가다 - To go up 내려가다 - To go down 올라오다 - To come up 내려오다 - To come down 나가다 - To go out 들어가다 - To go in 나오다 - To come out 들어오다 - To come in 길을 건너다 - To cross the road -을/를 지나다 - To pass 층 - Floor counter (e.g. 2nd floor, 3rd floor)

-(으)세요 - Turns a sentence into a polite command -아서/어서/해서 - Used a connective adding the meaning of then (e.g. go straight then turn right)

극장이 어디에 있어요? - Where is the cinema? 길을 건너서 똑바로 가세요 - Please cross the road then go straight 커피숍이 어디에 있어요? - Where is the coffee shop? 커피숍은 백화점 안에 있어요. 백화점 안으로 들어가서 2층으로 가세요 - The coffee shop is in the department store. Please go into to department store and then to the 2nd floor.

Honorific form ~(으)세요

This honorific marker should be added to verbs when speaking with someone who deserves respect i.e. parents, people older than you, teachers, doctors… When talking about yourself you don’t use this form! (The infinitive form of ~(으)시 is ~(으)시 + 어 = ~(으)셔)

Present tense:

(Remember 다 is dropped from the dictionary form of the verb)

Verb stem ending with a consonant + 으세요 Verb stem ending with a vowel + 세요

앉 + 으세요 = 앉으세요 - To sit 읽 + 으세요 = 읽으세요 - To read 가 + 세요 = 가세요 - To go 오 + 세요 = 오세요 - To come 이 + 세요 = 이세요 - To be (이다)

Irregulars: (note this isn’t the case for all verbs as there are some regular ones too!)

ㄷ Irregular: Just like polite present tense conjugation (아/어/해요), some verbs have their final ㄷ dropped and replaced with ㄹ

듣다 - To listen The final ㄷ is dropped and replaced with ㄹ + 으세요 = 들으세요

걷다 - To walk The final ㄷ is dropped and replaced with ㄹ + 으세요 = 걸으세요

ㄹ Irregular: The final consonant ㄹ is dropped

살다 - To live Remove the final ㄹ + 세요 (since the verb now ends with the vowel ㅏ) = 사세요

알다 - To know Remove the final ㄹ + 세요 (since the verb now ends with the vowel ㅏ) = 아세요

열다 - To open Remove the final ㄹ + 세요 (since the verb now ends with the vowel ㅕ) = 여세요

ㅂ Irregular: If ㅂ is followed by a vowel, the ㅂ is dropped and 우 is added

덥다 - To be hot Remove the ㅂ and add 우 + 세요 = 더우세요

무섭다 - To be scary Remove the ㅂ and add 우 + 세요 = 무서우세요

ㅅ Irregular: Just like polite present tense conjugation (아/어/해요), the ㅅ is dropped but the vowels are not contracted (example below), therefore even if the final character is a vowel 으세요 should be added

낫다 - 나아요 (Present tense) - To get better Drop the final ㅅ + 으세요 = 나으세요

붓다 - 부어요 (Present tense) - To swell/pour Drop the final ㅅ + 으세요 = 부으세요

Sentence Breakdown

This is a pretty succinct and simple sentence, but it has quite a lot of grammar packed into it that contributes to the overall meaning. It’s taken from a dialogue about noodle dishes, for context:

저는 한 번도 안 먹어 봤거든요

저는 - I (저 followed by the -는 marker because I am the one doing the action, this sentence is concerning the actions/opinions of ‘I’)

한 번도 - even one time/once (한 번 - once/one time + 도 - even)

안 먹어 - not eat (안 먹다 - to not eat)

안 먹어 봤다 - to have not tried/not tasted/not experienced eating (the 봤다 part is 보다 (to try) in past tense. When it is added to another verb, in this case after 먹다, it means ‘to try to do’ that verb)

봤거든요 - the 거든요 is a common way of ending a sentence when explaining new information to the listener, like ’this is the case/reason, don’t you know?’ (It’s sort of rhetorical and not an actual question, just like ‘y’know?’. It is attached to the last verb.)

So the full meaning of this sentence is:

저는 한 번도 안 먹어 봤거든요 - You know what, I personally have not tried eating it even once.

But it would just be translated to - ‘I’ve never tried it before’

To other Asian-Americans out there, I hope you’re doing ok mentally and staying safe physically in light of recent events. To everyone else as well, please remember a few things as you support Asian-American communities

- This is absolutely no reason to talk over BLM or pitch either communities against each other. We need to be uplifting of one another against white supremacy. Know that the phrase Asian Lives Matter, while with good intentions, does the same harm as All Lives Matter. Promote these phrases instead when possible: StopAsianHate, TheyCantBurnUsAll, AsiansAreHumans, ProtectAsianLives

- Remember that there are regions outside of East Asia. SE Asians often face more racism and are even more heavily underrepresented in media, they deserve full protection and support as well. Blasian (black/asian) people exist too and they should not be overlooked either

- Refrain from insensitive phrases along the lines of “if you like anime/kpop/vocaloid you should be paying attention” because you should not need a reason to care about human lives. Not only do these usually refer exclusively to East Asia media, our worth isn’t based on how much our content entertains you

- While I am referring to an incident in America, be mindful that racism against Asians does not only happen in the US. Anti-Asian racism has ridiculously spiked in Europe as well (within the UK, Italy, Greece, Spain, France, Germany to name a few countries specifically) as a result of the pandemic

안녕하세요. idk if you answer questions like this so please dont feel pressured to answer this!! but i was wondering if whether (for the nuances of ~이/가) you could answer something like "그책이 좋아요." to a question like “이책 좋아요?" to mean “i like that book better than this one”? 정말 감사해요<3

안녕! Good question! So if someone asks you “이 책 좋아요?” but you don’t like this book, but rather that book, you could say “아니요, 그 책이 좋아요.”

But you could also say “이 책이 싫어요. 그 책은 좋아요,” meaning “I hate this book. I like that book” to show this contrast -- you dislike one, but you do like the other. In which case, you would use -ㄴ/은/는 instead.

Let me try to explain this difference a little more. As for the convo with “아니요, 그 책이 좋아요,” you are saying this book is not the one I like, that book is the one I like. Here, you are clarifying what it is that you like -- rather than liking this book, you like that one. In which case, you would use -이/가

As for “이 책이 싫어요. 그 책은 좋아요,” you are comparing your opinion on one book versus your opinion on the other -- you hate this book, but you enjoy the other one. Notice how in the first convo, you’re using the same verb/adjective to clarify which book is the one you like: 좋다 -- this one is not the one you like, but that one is. In the second convo, however, you’re using two different verbs, 싫다 and 좋다, to compare your opinions on the two books -- you like one, but hate the other.

Ok so that was a pretty lengthy explanation and I hope I answered your question without confusing you! If you want some more clarification, I think that this Talk to Me in Korean video shows the differences between these particles pretty well, so be sure to check it out!! I also have some lessons that might help as well! 화이팅!

How do you study Korean vocabulary? 💜 I use words in sentences and learn in context but it’s still hard for me to remember them!

Hi!

One of my favorite ways is studying with Quizlet. There are a few ways you can study your set of vocabulary words there, so you can figure out which method works best for you. Don’t put too much vocabulary into your list. Try studying small amounts at a time, then create a new list once you’ve learned everything from the first list. You can also make a larger list that will have all of the words you’ve learned. Make sure to re-study what you’ve learned too. It’s important to refresh your memory!

When I was first learning Korean I liked to put sticky notes on things and write what the item was called in Korean. For example, on a book I would put a sticky note saying “책.”

I like to translate songs, shows, podcasts, etc... You can refresh your memory on words you already know and learn new words too. You’ll also be able to learn the context in which certain phrasing or words are used.

Those are just a few examples. There are so many different ways to study vocabulary and everyone has a method that works better for them, so try out different things and see what helps vocabulary stick with you!
