Upper-Intermediate / Lesson 22: -김에
안녕하세요! Hey everyone! Welcome to this lesson, which is all about -김에! This is a really useful structure to use – you can use it to say, “while you’re at it, can you get some milk?” or “since you’re here, why don’t you stay for dinner?” Let’s start!
-김에 = While you’re at it
-김에 is attached to verbs to mean “while I was [verb]-ing” or “while I’m [verb]-ing.” (The subject doesn’t always have to be “I” btw!) -김에 isn’t really just used to say “while I’m doing something, I also do something else.” It’s used to say “while I’m at something, I’ll do something else since it’s convenient for me to do so.” Before we look at some examples to illustrate this, let’s see some formulas!
{Present Tense} [verb stem] + 는 김에
{Past Tense} [verb stem] + ㄴ/ 김에
Let’s see some examples!
가게에 가는 김에 우유 더 사 줄래요? = While you’re at the store, can you buy more milk? / Since you’re going to the store, can you get some more milk while you’re there?
Here, you’re not just talking about doing two actions at the same time as you would with -(으)면서, which also translates to “while.” These two actions, going to the store and buying milk, are closely related because buying milk is convenient when one is already at the store. Think of it in English when we say “while you’re at it, why don’t you buy some more milk?” Let’s see some more examples!
(from Naver Dictionary) 오신 김에 저녁이나 같이 하시죠. = While you’re here, why don’t you have dinner with us?
Your guest has come all the way from home to visit you, so why don’t they stay for dinner while they’re here?
원피스를 사러 나간 김에 구두도 샀어요. = While I went out to buy a dress, I bought shoes too. / While I was out shopping for a dress, I bought shoes too.
Maybe you were at the mall shopping for a dress and decided you should buy a pair of shoes to go with it while you’re at it.
Notice how I attached -ㄴ 김에 here to describe something you did in the past!
대구에 지나간 김에 할머니를 방문했어요. = While I was passing through Daegu, I visited my grandmother.
Maybe your grandmother lives in Daegu, a place you might not be in often, so you decided to take the opportunity while you were there to go visit her.
도서관에 있는 김에 생물학 과제를 시작할 거예요. = While I’m at the library, I’ll start my biology project.
아마존에서 교과서를 찾는 김에 새 펜 찾아요. = I’m searching for new pens while I’m looking for a textbook on Amazon.
That’s about it for this lesson! Hope it was helpful! See you in the next lesson! 다음 또 봐요!

easy korean lesson - 2 by @studyhardinkorean
“this/that” in korean
이 - this (thing that’s near you)
처 - that (thing that’s far away from you)
그 - the (thing that’s near the person you are speaking to, but not near you!)
so cozy tonight✨
easy korean lesson - 1 by @studyhardinkorean
나 - I, formal
물 - water
가방 - bag
학교 - school
학생 - student
저 - me
뭐 - what
all of these words can be used with:
이에요
예요
to form sentences that say “it is water” for example:
물 이에요- it is water
which can also be a question if you raise the tone at the end + add a question mark!
a handy one to remember is:
뭐 여요 - what is that?
안녕하서요 and welcome to the new followers! so glad to have you aboard on my korean journey✨

my korean apps
hello everyone :) in this post I want to share which apps I use to study korean on the go. I actually had around two dozen apps related to korean on my phone, but no person could use all of them together, so I limited it down to only 12 apps
of course, some of those I haven't used in ages, but I do think they're useful from time to time
LingoDeer
I cannot stop raving about this app, their courses are so well thought through, they teach grammar well and the sample sentences are actually useful!
Memrise
there's nothing new about memrise, I use it because it has all 10 ttmik levels on there, with audio recordings and grammar explanations. @ whoever created that memrise course, I'll love you forever
NAVER dictionary
it's not just a dictionary, it has the papago translator integrated, there are podcasts, each day there's a "word of the day" and "global sentences" where you can learn not only a new sentence, but also view entire sample conversations
KORLINK
it's an app that compiles all ttmik pdf lessons
Beelinguapp
this app has many well known (short) stories and even fairytales which you can read in your native and target language side by side. if you want you can listen to the audio recordings as well, and even slow them down if you need
Grammar Haja
okay this app is amazing, it has nearly all grammar of the korean language, gives in-depth explanations and sample sentences. there's even a "confusing grammar" section where the difference between, well, confusing grammar points is explained
Hanji
you can type in a english or korean verb in any conjugation and it will not only give you the translation (they aren't always on point tho), but also all the possible conjugations for the verb. it includes all tenses, politeness levels and all possible suffixes
HiNative
HiNative allows you to ask questions about a country or a language to natives. you can phrase any question or use the options provided, such as 'does this sound natural', 'what's the difference between x and x' etc. you can even record your pronunciation or ask natives to send you a audio recording
HelloTalk
this app is mostly about language exchange, so making friends with natives or finding a studdy buddy. you can also post pictures and texts or read others public entries as reading / writing practice. if you want to meet up with someone you can enter your location and see who's near, but beware of the creeps that are on this app and stay safe
세종한국어 apps
these apps are provided by the king sejong institute foundation. there are different apps for different levels, but I downloaded the 회화 초급 and 문법 초급 (conversation and grammar for beginners) as well as the beginner to intermediate vocabulary app. I haven't really taken the time to go through the first two apps to check if there are basics that I still don't know by now, but I'm planning to check that once I have the time. so far I think these apps would be a really good way for beginners to ease into the language and learn the basics. they also provide mini games where you can test your knowledge
that's it for now, I hope you enjoyed this little 'tour' of my korean apps. if you have any questions, feel free to leave a message in my ask :)
have a lovely day everyone 🌸🌺
