Lesson focus |
|---|
| Hyunwoo: So what is todayโs grammar point? |
| Gyeongeun: ๊ณ ํด์. |
| Hyunwoo: I heard that, they said that. |
| Gyeongeun: And it comes from ๊ณ ๋งํ๋ค and ๊ทธ๋์. |
| Hyunwoo: Yes ๊ณ ๋งํ๋ค is the past tense for ๊ณ ๋งํ๋ค and it means |
| Gyeongeun: To say. |
| Hyunwoo: And the subject for this verb is understood and generally refers to other people ๋ค๋ฅธ ์ฌ๋๋ค, right? |
| Gyeongeun: You are right. So you can translate it as they said or I heard in English. |
| Hyunwoo: And the last part ์ comes from ๊ทธ๋์ which means therefore or so. So this entire structure takes the meaning of they, someone or some people said this. So I am doing this or I did this. |
| Gyeongeun: Yes and the construction is very simple too. |
| Hyunwoo: How? |
| Gyeongeun: You add ๊ณ ํด์ after the plain narrative. |
| Hyunwoo: Okay for example, what is to go? |
| Gyeongeun: ๊ฐ๋ค. |
| Hyunwoo: And how do you say that in the plain narrative? |
| Gyeongeun: ๊ฐ๋ค. |
| Hyunwoo: ๊ฐ๋ค. So how do you say they said that they were going so... |
| Gyeongeun: ๊ฐ๋ค๊ณ ํด์. |
| Hyunwoo: Good. One more. How do you say to be good? |
| Gyeongeun: ์ข๋ค. |
| Hyunwoo: And itโs a descriptive verb. So itโs the same form in the plain narrative. |
| Gyeongeun: So it becomes ์ข๋ค๊ณ ํด์. |
| Hyunwoo: I heard itโs good soโฆ |
| Gyeongeun: ๋ง์์. |
| Hyunwoo: Good. So how was it used in todayโs dialogue? ์ค๋ ๋ํ์์ ์ด๋ป๊ฒ ์ฐ์์ด์? |
| Gyeongeun: ์ฐ์ง๊ฐ ๋งํ์ด์. ํ ๋ฒ๋ง ๋ฐ๋ฅด๋ฉด ๊นํํฌ์ฒ๋ผ ๋๋ค๊ณ ํด์... |
| Hyunwoo: They said that I would become like Kim Taehee by putting it on just once. |
| Gyeongeun: ์ ๋ง์? ์ ๋ ์ด๊ฑฐ ์ฌ๊ณ ์ถ์ด์. |
| Hyunwoo: ๊ทธ๋ฌ๋๊น ๊ฒฝ์ ์จ ๊ท๊ฐ ์์์. |
| Gyeongeun: ๋ค, ์ ๋ ๊นํํฌ์ฒ๋ผ ๋๊ณ ์ถ์ด์. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ ์ฐ์ง๊ฐ ๋งํ์ฃ ? ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ ์ฌ์ํ์ผ๋ก ์ฒญ์๊ธฐ๋ฅผ ์ค๋ค๊ณ ํด์... |
| Hyunwoo: And they said that they would give me a vacuum cleaner as a free gift. |
| Gyeongeun: ์ค, ์ข์๋ฐ์ ์ง์ง? |
| Hyunwoo: Would you fall for this? |
| Gyeongeun: ๋ค. |
| Hyunwoo: But vacuum cleaners these days are so cheap. You donโt have to buy an expensive cosmetics you know to get a vacuum cleaner. |
| Gyeongeun: But I would need cosmetics anyways. So itโs okay. |
| Hyunwoo: Okay then can you give us some more examples? |
| Gyeongeun: ๋ค. ์ค๋ ๋น๊ฐ ์จ๋ค๊ณ ํด์ ์ฐ์ฐ์ ๊ฐ์ ธ์์ด์. |
| Hyunwoo: I heard that itโs going to rain today, so I brought my umbrella. |
| Gyeongeun: ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ ์ด ์ํ ์ฌ๋ฏธ์๋ค๊ณ ํด์ ์ ๋ดค์ด์. |
| Hyunwoo: I heard that this movie isnโt good. So I didnโt watch it. So you get the idea how this ๊ณ ํด์ works and that just about does it for today. ๊ฒฝ์ ์จ, ์๊ณ ํ์ จ์ด์. |
