| INTRODUCTION |
| Tim: ์๋ ํ์ธ์ (Annyeonghaseyo) KoreanClass101.com ์ฌ๋ฌ๋ถ (yeoreobun). ํ์ ๋๋ค. (Tim imnida.) |
| Debbie: Debbie here. Is That Enough to Break the Korean Bank? |
| Tim: Hello everyone! Tim is here! And... |
| Debbie: ์๋ ํ์ธ์. Hello, ์ฌ๋ฌ๋ถ, Debbie is here, too. |
| Tim: ๋ฐ๋น์จ. Hey Debbie. |
| Debbie: ๋ค, ํ์จ? Yes, Tim? |
| Tim: Do you know what this is? |
| Debbie: Of course! It's water! What do you think it is? |
| Tim: So... Can you say "it's water" in Korean? |
| Debbie: Hmm... ๊ทธ๊ฒ์ ๋ฌผ์ ๋๋ค. It's easy! |
| Tim: ๋ฉ.๋.๋! Okay. Now, can you make that a question? How do you say "is it water?" in Korean? |
| Debbie: Hmm.... Let me think... In English, we switch the order of the Subject and Verb... but in Korean, it's even easier than that to make a question, right? |
| Tim: Yes! That's what we are going to learn about today. |
| Debbie: How to turn a sentence into a question? |
| Tim: That's right! |
| Debbie: Great! Where does this conversation take place? |
| Tim: At an accessories shop - ์ ์ธ์ฌ๋ฆฌ ๊ฐ๊ฒ์์ |
| Debbie: The conversation is between... |
| Tim: Sujin and the store staff - ์์ง๊ณผ ๊ฐ๊ฒ ์ ์ |
| Debbie: Since this conversation is between strangers, the speakers will use formal Korean. |
| Tim: ์กด๋๋ง ์ ๋๋ค. |
| Debbie: Let's listen to the conversation. |

| Store staff: ๊ทธ๊ฒ์ ํธ๋๋ฐฑ์ ๋๋ค. |

| Debbie: That handbag costs fifty-five thousand won. |
| POST CONVERSATION BANTER |
| Debbie: Tim, do you carry a handbag with you? |
| Tim: No way! Why do you ask?...Ah-ha! I see why you brought up that question! |
| Debbie: Do you know what I'm talking about? |
| Tim: You must have seen some Korean guys carrying a handbag with them. That's why you asked, right? |
| Debbie: (๋๋ผ๋ฉฐ with surprise) Yes! Well, you know that I am from America and you have lived in Canada for a number of years. Men in America and Canada usually don't carry a handbag with them, but it's pretty common in Korea to see men carrying handbags. |
| Tim: I know what you are talking about... It is pretty common. Even my best friend in Korea carries a handbag with him. (๊ฐ์กฐํ๋ฉฐ emphasizing) |
| Debbie: That was kind of a shock for me when I visited Korea for the first time, but it was nice to see a variety of fashion trends amongst Korean men. |
| Tim: ํํ! You're right. In general, Korean people are easily influenced by celebrities and the media. When guys in Korea see their favorite Korean actors carrying a handbag on TV, it'll become the latest fad. |
| Debbie: Ah, so that must be why it's so common. It's like that in the states, too. The celebrities set the fashion trends. |
| Tim: Do you know what surprised me when I was in Canada? |
| Debbie: What? |
| Tim: Okay... Here are two hints - tissue and nose. |
| Debbie: ํํํ~~ I get it! Many westerners keep a tissue in their pocket after wiping their nose, which Korean people usually wouldn't do. ํํ. |
| Tim: That's right! Everyone does things a bit differently everywhere you go. |
| Debbie: (์๊ธํ๋ฉฐ agreeing) You're right! If any of our listeners have been to Korea, was there anything like that that surprised you? Let us know in the comments! Okay. Let's move on to the lesson vocabulary. |

| VOCAB AND PHRASE USAGE |
| Debbie: Let's have a closer look at the usuage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson. |
| Debbie: The first word is... |
| Tim: ๋. ๋ |
| Debbie: Meaning, "too, also or as well". The formation is... |
| Tim: Noun or particle + ๋. For example, "me too" is... |
| Debbie: ๋ is "me" and ๋ is "too" , so it becomes ๋๋. How about "you, too"...? |
| Tim: ๋ is "you" and ๋ is "too" so, it becomes ๋๋. |
| Debbie: How would you say something like... "that is (๊ฐ์กฐํ๋ฉฐ) "also" a chair" in Korean? |
| Tim: First, let's start with the sentence "This is a chair" - ์ด๊ฒ์ "this", ์์ "a chair", ์ ๋๋ค "is" |
| Debbie: So... ์ด๊ฒ์์์ ์ ๋๋ค. "This is a chair" |
| Tim: Right. Now, "that is also a chair". Add the particle ๋ after the word "that". |
| ์ ๊ฒ "that" + ๋ "also" + ์์ "a chair" + ์ ๋๋ค "is", so altogether... |
| Debbie: ์ ๊ฒ(๊ฐ์กฐํ๋ฉฐ emphasizing) "๋" ์์ ์ ๋๋ค. |
| Tim: Yes! Listeners, please repeat both sentences after me. |
| "This is a chair" ์ด๊ฒ์ ์์ ์ ๋๋ค |
| [pause] |
| "That is also a chair" ์ ๊ฒ"๋" ์์ ์ ๋๋ค. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great! Next we have... |
| Tim: ๋ฌด.์.์ .๋.๊น? - ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? |
| Debbie: It's used when asking for the identity of the [noun]. [noun]+๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น means "what's the [noun]?" Let's practice with it. How about..."what is this?" in Korean? |
| Tim: "this" ์ด๊ฒ์, "what is?" ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? So "what is this?" becomes "์ด๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น?" |
| Please repeat after me. ์ด๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great! How about... "what is that?" in Korean? |
| Tim: "that" ์ ๊ฒ์, "what is?" ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? So "what is that?" becomes "์ ๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น?" |
| Please repeat after me. ์ ๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Excellent! Now last we have... |
| Tim: ์ผ.๋ง.์ .๋.๊น? - ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? |
| Debbie: It's used when asking for the price of [Noun]. [noun]+์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น means "How much is the [noun]?" Let's practice with it. How about..."How much is this?" in Korean? |
| Tim: "this" ์ด๊ฒ์, "how much is?" ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? So "how much it this?" becomes ์ด๊ฒ์ ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? Please repeat after me, ์ด๊ฒ์ ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great! How about..."How much is that?" in Korean? |
| Tim: "that" ์ ๊ฒ์, "how much is?" ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? So "how much is that?" becomes ์ ๊ฒ์ ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? Please repeat after me. ์ ๊ฒ์ ์ผ๋ง์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Excellent! Now let's move on to the grammar point. |
Lesson focus |
|---|
| Debbie: The focus of this lesson is about how to change a sentence into a question. Let's do this, Tim! |
| Tim: Okay! First, let's review Absolute Beginner Season 2 Lesson 2. In that lesson, we learned "Subject, I" ๋๋ / ์ ๋ + "Noun"+ "is/am/are" ์ ๋๋ค. For example, with my name, ๋๋ ํ ์ ๋๋ค - "I am Tim". How about "He is Tim" in Korean, Debbie? |
| Debbie: ๊ทธ๋ "He" + ํ "Tim" + ์ ๋๋ค "is". So "He is Tim" becomes ๊ทธ๋ ํ ์ ๋๋ค. How about "that is a bag" in Korean? |
| Tim: ์ ๊ฒ์ "that"+ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ "a bag" + ์ ๋๋ค "is". So "That is a bag" becomes ์ ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ ์ ๋๋ค. Please repeat after me. ์ ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ ์ ๋๋ค. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Tim, it's ๋์์ ๋ก๋จน๊ธฐ "a piece of cake". Now let's learn about how to change a regular sentence like this into a question. |
| Tim: It's very easy. Unlike English, we don't have to switch the order of the subject and the verb. You simply... |
| Debbie: Simply... what? |
| Tim: You simply have to change ๋ค (da) into ๊น (kka) |
| Debbie: So...Tim, what you are saying is that adding the ending ๊น (kka) turns the sentence into a question? |
| Tim: Yup! That's what I mean! |
| Debbie: Okay! Let's do some practices. We just made the sentence "he is Tim" ๊ทธ๋ ํ ์ ๋๋ค. Let's turn it into a question. So "Is he Tim?" in Korean is... |
| Tim: Simply replace ๋ค with ๊น. Therefore, "is he Tim?" becomes ๊ทธ๋ ํ ์ ๋"๊น?" |
| Debbie: Ah-ha! That sounds pretty easy! Let's take the sentence "that is a bag" and turn it into a question. |
| Tim: "That is a bag" is.. ์ ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ์ ๋๋ค. |
| Debbie: And how do we say "is that a bag?"...? |
| Tim: Again, simply replace ๋ค with ๊น . So "is that a bag?" becomes, ์ ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ ์ ๋"๊น?" Please repeat after me. ์ ๊ฒ์ ๊ฐ๋ฐฉ ์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great Now let's make some sentences that listeners can use in Korea. |
| Tim: Sounds good to me! |
| Debbie: Listeners, just imagine you are visiting Korea and you've just entered an accessories shop. How can you say, "what is that?" in Korean? |
| Tim: Remember "that" is ์ ๊ฒ์ and "what is?" is ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Tim, the answer is... |
| Tim: ์ ๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? Please repeat after me, ์ ๊ฒ์ ๋ฌด์์ ๋๊น? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: (๊ธํ๊ฒ pushing him to answer fast) Now Tim, pretend you work at the store. Answer the question, Tim. Say anything! |
| Tim: (๋๋ผ๋ฉฐ with a bit surprise..) ์ด..์ด... anything... anything... |
| Debbie: Tim, we don't have time! |
| Tim: (๊ธํ๊ฒ without thinking through..) ์ ๊ฒ์...์ ๊ฒ์ ํ ์ ๋๋ค! "That...that is Tim!" |
| Debbie: What? ํํ. Tim! Your customer asks, "what is that?" and you answer "that's Tim?" ํํ. |
| Tim: Sorry guys... as you can see, I can't think of things on the spot. Here's a real answer - ์ ๊ฒ์ ํธ๋๋ฐฑ์ ๋๋ค "That is a handbag." |
| Debbie: Good! Now guys, you want to know "whether this is also a handbag or not". Ask Tim, "Is this also a handbag?" |
| Tim: Remember "this" is ์ด๊ฒ, "also" is ๋, and add "๊น?" in the end. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Tim, the answer is... |
| Tim: ์ด๊ฒ๋ ํธ๋๋ฐฑ์ ๋"๊น?" Please repeat after me, ์ด๊ฒ"๋" ํธ๋๋ฐฑ ์ ๋"๊น"? |
| [pause] |
Outro |
| Debbie: Excellent! That's all for this lesson. Thanks for listening. |
