Welcome to Can Do Korean by KoreanClass101.com. |
In this lesson, youโll learn how to give your phone number in Korean. |
For example, "My phone number is 010-0567-8910." is |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
Yeon-a Yu is at the city hall registering her address. |
A civil servant is asking for her phone number. |
Before you hear their conversation, letโs preview some of its key components. |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ (jeon-hwa-beon-ho) |
"phone number" |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ (enunciated) |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ |
Listen to the conversation and focus on the response. |
Ready? |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
Once more with the English translation. |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
"What's your phone number?" |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
"My phone number is 010-0567-8910." |
Let's break down the conversation. |
Do you remember how Ji-hye Jeong says, |
"What's your phone number?" |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
First is ์ ํ๋ฒํธ (jeon-hwa-beon-ho), meaning "phone number." ์ ํ๋ฒํธ. |
This starts with ์ ํ (jeon-hwa), "phone." ์ -ํ-. ์ ํ. |
Next is ๋ฒํธ (beon-ho), "number." ๋ฒ-ํธ-. ๋ฒํธ. |
Together, itโs ์ ํ๋ฒํธ (jeon-hwa-beon-ho), "phone number." ์ ํ๋ฒํธ. |
Remember this because youโll see it again in Yeon-a Yuโs response. |
Next is ๊ฐ (ga), the subject-marking particle. ๊ฐ. ๊ฐ. |
In this sentence, ๊ฐ marks ์ ํ๋ฒํธ, "telephone number" as the subject of the sentence. Think of it as marking "telephone number" as the thing being talked about. |
Last is ๋ญ์์? (mwo-ye-yo?). A polite, informal phrase meaning "what is it?" ๋ญ์์? (mwo-ye-yo?) |
First is ๋ญ(mwo), "what." ๋ญ. ๋ญ. |
Next is ์์(ye-yo). Here, itโs like the "is" in "is it." ์์. ์์. |
Here, the word "it" is understood from context. |
์์ is from the verb ์ด๋ค(i-da) meaning "to be." ์ด๋ค. |
Note: ์์ follows words that end in vowels like ๋ญ. |
Together, ๋ญ์์? (mwo-ye-yo?) "what is it?" ๋ญ์์? |
Here the question is formed by the rising intonation. |
Listen again, ๋ญ์์? (mwo-ye-yo?) |
All together, itโs ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) This literally means, "Phone number, what is," but translates as, "What's your phone number?" |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
Note, the "your" in "your phone number" is understood from the context of the two-person conversation. Omitting understood information is common in Korean. |
Remember this request. Youโll hear it again later. |
Letโs take a closer look at the response. |
Do you remember Yeon-a Yuโs response, |
"My phone number is 010-0567-8910." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
First is ์ (je), "my." ์ . ์ . |
This is the shortened form of ์ (jeo), the humble word for "I," and ์ (ui), meaning "of." Together it's ์ ์(jeo-ui), "my," ์ ์. This is shortened to ์ (je). |
Next, do you remember the word for phone number? |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ (jeon-hwa-beon-ho), "phone number." ์ ํ๋ฒํธ. |
Together, ์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho). "my phone number." ์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ. |
Next is, ๋ (neun), the topic-marking particle. ๋ (slow version - breakdown by syllable).๋. |
It marks "my phone number" as the topic of the sentence. Think of it like "as for" in the expression "as for my phone number." |
Next is Yeon-a Yuโs phone number, 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต), 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต) ( gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong). |
Notice how Yeon-a Yu says her phone number. |
First, she says each number independently. |
Second, in Korean, hyphens are either omitted or read. For this lesson, weโll omit the hyphens and indicate spaces after a group of numbers with a pause mid-speech. |
0 (๊ณต)(gong) 1 (์ผ)(il) 0 (๊ณต)(gong), (pause) 0 (๊ณต)(gong) 5 (์ค)(o) 6 (์ก)(yuk) 7 (์น )(chil) (pause) 8 (ํ)(pal) 9 (๊ตฌ)(gu) 1 (์ผ)(il) 0 (๊ณต)(gong) |
Last is ์ด์์ (i-e-yo), in this case, itโs like the "is" in "My phone number is." ์ด์์ (slow version - breakdown by syllable). ์ด์์. |
์ด์์ (i-e-yo) is from the verb ์ด๋ค (i-da) "to be." ์ด๋ค. |
Note: ์ด์์ follows words that end in consonants like ๊ณต(gong). |
All together, itโs ์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. This literally means, "As for my phone number 010-0567-8910 is," but it translates as "My phone number is 010-0567-8910." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
The pattern is: |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋(Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun) {PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo). |
My phone number is {PHONE NUMBER}. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋(Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun) {PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo). |
To use this pattern, simply replace {PHONE NUMBER} with your phone number and choose between ์์/์ด์์. |
Imagine your phone number is 02-0101-3434 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ๊ณต์ผ ์ผ์ฌ์ผ์ฌ)(gong-i gong-il-gong-il sam-sa-sam-sa) |
Say |
"My phone number is 02-0101-3434." |
Ready? |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0101-3434 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ๊ณต์ผ ์ผ์ฌ์ผ์ฌ)์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-i gong-il-gong-il sam-sa-sam-sa-ye-yo.) |
"My phone number is 03-1212-3434." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0101-3434 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ๊ณต์ผ ์ผ์ฌ์ผ์ฌ)์์. |
There are two versions of the subject-marking particle: |
๊ฐ(ga) follows words that end in a vowel, such as ์ ํ๋ฒํธ(jeon-hwa-beon-ho). |
์ด(i) follows words that end in a consonant, such as 7 (์น )(chil). |
There are two versions of the topic-marking particle. |
๋ follows words that end in a vowel, such as ์ ํ๋ฒํธ(jeon-hwa-beon-ho). |
์ follows words that end in a consonant, 7 (์น )(chil). |
There are two polite forms of the verb ์ด๋ค(i-da) "to be." |
์์(ye-yo) follows words that end in a vowel, such as ๋ญ(mwo). |
์ด์์(i-e-yo) follows words that end in a consonant, such as 7 (์น )(chil). |
Again, the pattern is |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋(Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun) {PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo). |
My phone number is {PHONE NUMBER}. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋(Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun) {PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo). |
Let's look at some more examples. |
Listen and repeat or speak along with the native speakers. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
"My phone number is 010-0567-8910." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0101-3434 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ๊ณต์ผ ์ผ์ฌ์ผ์ฌ)์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-i gong-il-gong-il sam-sa-sam-sa-ye-yo.) |
"My phone number is 02-0101-3434." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0101-3434 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ๊ณต์ผ ์ผ์ฌ์ผ์ฌ)์์. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0703-9004 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ๊ณต์ผ ๊ตฌ๊ณต๊ณต์ฌ)์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-chil-gong-sam gu-gong-gong-sa-ye-yo.) |
"My phone number is 010-0703-9004." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0703-9004 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ๊ณต์ผ ๊ตฌ๊ณต๊ณต์ฌ)์์. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0123-9876 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ์ด์ผ ๊ตฌํ์น ์ก)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-i gong-il-i-sam gu-pal-chil-yug-i-e-yo.) |
"My phone number is 02-0123-9876." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 02-0123-9876 (๊ณต์ด ๊ณต์ผ์ด์ผ ๊ตฌํ์น ์ก)์ด์์. |
010-0789-6543 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ํ๊ตฌ ์ก์ค์ฌ์ผ)์ด์์. (Gong-il-gong gong-chil-pal-gu yuk-o-sa-sam-i-e-yo.) |
"It's 010-0789-6543." |
010-0789-6543 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ํ๊ตฌ ์ก์ค์ฌ์ผ)์ด์์. |
Did you notice how the last speaker omitted ์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun)? |
010-0789-6543 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ํ๊ตฌ ์ก์ค์ฌ์ผ)์ด์์. |
"Itโs 010-0789-6543." |
When directly responding to a request, itโs often possible to omit part of the response. |
Here by simply giving your phone number, thereโs no need to include ์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ |
"As for my phone numberโฆ" |
The pattern is |
{PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo).. |
"Itโs {PHONE NUMBER}." |
You should be aware of this shortcut, but for this lesson, weโll use the full sentence pattern. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ {PHONE NUMBER}์์/์ด์์ (ye-yo/i-e-yo).. |
My phone number is {PHONE NUMBER}. |
Let's review. |
Respond to the prompts by speaking aloud. Then repeat after the native speakers, focusing on pronunciation. |
Ready? |
Do you remember how to say "phone number?" |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ (jeon-hwa-beon-ho) |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ |
And how to say, "my phone number?" |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ (je jeon-hwa-beon-ho) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ |
Do you remember how to say |
"As for my phone number." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ (je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ |
Now, do you remember how Yeon-a Yu says, |
"My phone number is 010-0567-8910." |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. (Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-o-yuk-chil pal-gu-il-gong-i-e-yo.) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0567-8910 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์ค์ก์น ํ๊ตฌ์ผ๊ณต)์ด์์. |
Do you remember the polite, informal phrase meaning "what is it?" |
๋ญ์์? (mwo-ye-yo?) |
๋ญ์์? |
Do you remember Ji-hyeโs request, "What's your phone number?" |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? |
Let's practice. |
Imagine youโre Yun-seok Yu and your phone number is 010-0816-2816. (gong-il-gong gong-par-ill-yuk i-par-ill-yuk) |
Respond to the civil servantโs request. |
Ready? |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0816-2816 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณตํ์ผ์ก ์ดํ์ผ์ก)์ด์์.(Je jeon-hwa-beon-ho-neun gong-il-gong gong-par-ill-yuk i-par-ill-yug-i-e-yo.) |
Listen again and repeat. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0816-2816 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณตํ์ผ์ก ์ดํ์ผ์ก)์ด์์. |
์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0816-2816 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณตํ์ผ์ก ์ดํ์ผ์ก)์ด์์. |
Letโs try another. |
Imagine you're No-a Yu and your phone number is 010-0724-0689 (in Korean). (gong-il-gong gong-chir-i-sa gong-yuk-pal-gu) |
Ready? |

์ ์ ํ๋ฒํธ๋ 010-0724-0689 (๊ณต์ผ๊ณต ๊ณต์น ์ด์ฌ ๊ณต์กํ๊ตฌ)์์. |
Letโs try one more. |
Imagine you're Ga-eun Gim, and your phone number is 010-0703-9004 in Korean (gong-il-gong gong-chil-gong-sam gu-gong-gong-sa). |
Ready? |
์ ํ๋ฒํธ๊ฐ ๋ญ์์? (Jeon-hwa-beon-ho-ga mwo-ye-yo?) |
