Adjectives and Verbs in the Same Sentence

[joshuajmattingly1722]

I known 김치는 맛있어 is "Kimchi is delicious," and 김치를 만드러요 is "I make kimchi."

How would I say "I make delicious kimchi"? Is there a KC101 lesson on this?

Also... did I get the first two translations right?

Hi Joshua,

welcome to KC101

*******************

changing the adjective to noun-crowning form:

"something is delicious" 뭐뭐 맛있다 becomes "delicious something" 맛있는 뭐뭐

맛있는 빵 -delicious bread
맛있는 음식 -delicious food

the children are tired -애들은 피곤하다
tired children -피곤한 애들

the man is handsome/stylish -그 남자는 멋있다
handsome/stylish man-멋있는 남자

It's not really proper Korean etiquette to brag about your own kimchi making, but you can certainly compliment someone else's kimchi making skill:

I make delicious kimchi - 나는 맛있는 김치를 만들어요 (담그다 is commonly used to describe "making" kimchi)
나는 맛있는 김치를 담궈요

George -aka-Younghoon -- fellow student

Perfect. Thanks!

And thanks for the heads-up on the etiquette.

Hi joshuajmattingly,

Here's a correction.

Thanks Anne! I have edited my post to show the correction.

Yeah Joshua, sorry for the confusion.

These things are bound to happen. This particular verb 담그다 is one of the exceptions. You will notice it has the "ㅡ" vowel in it, not "ㅜ" vowel, so it seemed to follow that 담그다 담급니다 should be 담그어요, but it is not; since there is no diphthong ㅡ +ㅓ it appears to have been changed to ㅜ+ㅓ (ㅝ) in order to write contracted forms like 담궜다 담궜어 담궈요.

담그다
1. soak, immerse, dip, steep
2. make
술을 담그다
make fermented drinks
물에 담그다
soak[dip] sth in water
장을 담그다
make Korean soy sauce
침담그다 (沈―)
cure 《a persimmon》 in salt water, sweeten 《an astringent persimmon》 in salt water
