Lesson Transcript

INTRODUCTION
Eric: Hi everyone, I'm Eric.
Lyn: And I'm Lyn.
Eric: And welcome to Must-Know Korean Sentence Structures, Season 1, Lesson 2 โ€“ There is, There are
Eric: In this lesson, you'll learn how to use a sentence pattern for stating that something exists in a location.
PATTERN
Eric: For example,
Eric: "There is a cell phone over there."
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.)
Lyn: [slow] ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.)
Eric: The pattern for stating that something exists in a location has 4 elements. First, a pronoun, "over there."
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ (jeogi).
Eric: Second, a noun, "cell phone."
Lyn: ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ (haendeupon).
Eric: Third, a subject marking particle.
Lyn: ์ด (i).
Eric: And last, a verb "to be, there is."
Lyn: ์žˆ์–ด์š” (isseoyo).
Eric: Altogether, we have... "There is a cell phone over there."
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.) [slow] ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.) [normal] ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.)
Eric: When you want to say something exists, simply say a noun, a subject marking particle, then simply addโ€ฆ
Lyn: ์žˆ์–ด์š” (isseoyo).
Eric: By adding this, you can specify where something exists. In Korean, there are two subject marking particles. If the noun ends with a final consonant, you can use...
Lyn: ์ด (i).
Eric: If it ends with a vowel, you can use...
Lyn: ๊ฐ€ (ga).
Eric: Then we have,
Lyn: ์žˆ์–ด์š” (isseoyo)
Eric: which means "there is" in the standard politeness. All together,
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.)
Eric: So remember to use the proper subject marking particle after the noun, plus
Lyn: ์žˆ์–ด์š” (isseoyo),
Eric: to state where something exists.
Eric: Here is another example meaning, "There is a computer over there." First, a pronoun, "over there."
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ (jeogi).
Eric: Second, a noun, "computer."
Lyn: ์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ (keompyuteo).
Eric: Third, a subject marking particle.
Lyn: ๊ฐ€ (ga).
Eric: And last, a verb "to be, there is."
Lyn: ์žˆ์–ด์š” (isseoyo).
Eric: Altogether we have..
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi keompyuteoga isseoyo.) [slow] ์ €๊ธฐ ์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi keompyuteoga isseoyo.) [normal] ์ €๊ธฐ ์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi keompyuteoga isseoyo.)
Eric: "There is a computer over there."
[pause]
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi keompyuteoga isseoyo.)
Eric: How do you say - "There is a puppy over there"? To give you a hint, "puppy" in Korean is..
Lyn: ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€ (gangaji). [slow] ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€ (gangaji). [normal] ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€ (gangaji).
Eric: โ€œThere is a puppy over there.โ€
[pause]
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi gangajiga isseoyo.) [slow] ์ €๊ธฐ ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (Jeogi gangajiga isseoyo.) [normal] ์ €๊ธฐ ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (Jeogi gangajiga isseoyo.)
[pause]
Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ๊ฐ•์•„์ง€๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi gangajiga isseoyo.)

Eric: Let's review the sentences from this lesson. Iโ€™ll give you the English equivalent of the phrase and you are responsible for shouting it out loud in Korean. Here we go.

Lyn: ์ €๊ธฐ ํ•ธ๋“œํฐ์ด ์žˆ์–ด์š”. (jeogi haendeuponi isseoyo.)
