| 여러분, 안녕하세요? 에이미에요. Hi, everybody! I’m Amy. |
| Welcome back to KoreanClass101.com’s 삼분 한국어, the fastest, easiest, and most fun way to learn Korean. |
| In the last lesson, we learned how to say 근처에 약국이 있어요? which means, is there pharmacy nearby? This time we'll be riding a bus in Korea. |
| Are you ready? Let’s buy the ticket! |
| Not many Korean bus drivers speak English and it would be very useful if you know how to get around. |
| When you get on a bus, you can pay either by cash or the prepaid card called T-Money. |
| Actually you get a 10% discount if you use T-Money! So let’s get on the bus and stick with T-Money! |
| You can get T-Money at any convenience store around you. |
| Here’s how to buy it in Korean. |
| 티머니 카드 주세요. |
| 티머니 is the Korean pronunciation of T-money and 주세요 is "please give me.", a pattern you've seen many times before. |
| When you buy a card, It costs around 3000 won, but then you can charge it with money. |
| So the clerk will ask, |
| 얼마짜리 카드요? |
| 얼마 is "how much.", that we learned from ‘shopping’ lesson. |
| 짜리 is "worth." |
| 카드요 means ‘the card’ with ending verb |
| So it’s asking how much money would you like on your card. |
| 얼마짜리 카드요? |
| Then let's say you want to load 20,000 won on your card. |
| "Twenty thousand won, please." |
| 이만원요. |
| The clerk will then tell you the total price which is 3,000 won for card and 20,000 won for charge. |
| Now it’s time for Amy’s insight. |
| Did you know you can transfer for almost nothing? For only 100 won, you can transfer from bus to bus, or even bus to subway! |
| The important thing is, don’t forget to scan your card before you get off the bus. Or, you will get charged again! |
| That's all for today. Next time, we’ll learn how to ask whether your bus is going in the right direction! |
| So don’t miss our next 삼분 한국어 lesson. |
| 다음에 또 만나요! |
