만양...?

[cheri]

A few days ago, we were walking behind some brightly outfitted 아주마s and one said, 차가 저기 있는데 만양 걸어요?

I'm not sure if I'm spelling 만양 right, worse, I'm not even sure that was the exact word, but I remember it sounding similar to 만약 and that was my mnemonic. ^^ Anyhoo, I just wanted to confirm the spelling and definition. Is it similar to 계속 with the implied tone that the car's all the way over there, but we're still walking with no purpose?

Can someone please give more examples? Is this word used a lot?

Thank you.

what you heard was "마냥"

마냥 means "all the way" "till the end" basically, but it also has the connotation of "without even thinking about the consequences or the end"

마냥 즐거웠다.
( I was just having a good time - and didn't have to worry about too many other things. )

마냥 걸었다.
( I just kept walking, not worrying about when I'll get there. )

Aha, 마녕... Thanks so much!
I wonder if I can say 마냥 먹으려고! Hehe... Because I plan to eat dinner to my heart's content tonight.
