Hi everyone!

I came across this word "어쨌뜬". Anyone knows what does this means?

Is it konglish?

Thanks!! But i have another questions to ask. What is 곱군요 and 되었지요?

yes, and there are many other ways to say "anyway" too... 아무튼 ---> 암튼, 하여튼.. ^^ but it's not "anyway" as in "i went there anyway" it's like "anyway...." when you are changing the subject.

edit: i just saw your second question. there are many meanings of 곱다 - can you tell me what context you saw it in?

I have a korean electronic dictionary but sometimes it don't recognize the word. Perhaps the problem lies with me.

So sorry to bother you on such minor stuff. 죄송합니다.

Thank you.

참 감사합니다.

no question is too small. Any and all questions are important

Where else but a class can someone ask such questions?

Thanks for your encouragement, matthew254.

I 'm starting to find learning korean is an uphill task.

It's not just the grammer and vocabulary but it's also about how to say a sentence in formal/infomal/polite ways. And there is so many ways to express yourself. Even an ending can be expressed in an unique way to express a feeling.

Oh man.... :cry:

i think your issue with the electronic dictionary is that usually you have to look up the "dictionary form" of the word in order to find it.. which means you can't search for any conjugated form at all.. so if you typed in "곱군요" you wouldn't find anything, but if you were able to recognize that 곱군요 comes from 곱다 you could look up 곱다 and find it no problem.
when i first started studying this was really really hard for me to do, but now i am able to do it without thinking. it gets easier, i promise ^^

Can anyone resolve this mystery for me again? :oops:

(1) What does "도움이 되셨기를.." means?
(2) What does "여성상으로 쓰면 어떨까요?" means?

I'm not sure about the second one, but the first one means "I hope this helped." It's just the "~기를 바라다" form with the "바라다" dropped.
