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 24. Showing Your Gratitude.
Eric: In this lesson, you'll learn how to use a sentence pattern for expressing gratitude to someone for doing something.
PATTERN
Eric: For example,
Eric: "Thanks for doing me a favor."
Lyn: 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Lyn: [slow] 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Eric: The pattern for expressing gratitude to someone for doing something has 4 elements. First, the noun, "request."
Lyn: 부탁 (butak).
Eric: Second, the verb stem, "to accept."
Lyn: 들 (deul).
Eric: Third, the phrase, "for doing."
Lyn: 어 줘서 (eo jwoseo).
Eric: And last, the expression, "thanks" in a polite way.
Lyn: 고마워요 (gomawoyo).
Eric: Altogether, we have... "Thanks for doing me a favor." or literally “thank you for accepting my request.”
Lyn: 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [slow] 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [normal] 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Eric: When you want to express your appreciation with the reason, you can use the phrase...
Lyn: -어 줘서 고마워요 (eo jwoseo gomawoyo).
Eric: It literally means “Thank you for giving.” This phrase has the verb...
Lyn: 주다 (juda)
Eric: which means "to give.” With this, you can put the reason why you want to appreciate. For example, if you appreciate the other because the person accepted your request, you can use the verb-stem
Lyn: 부탁 들- (butak deul)
Eric: Which means “to accept someone’s request” and say...
Lyn: 부탁 들어 줘서 고마워요. (butak deureo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Eric: So remember that to thank someone for doing something, simply state why you are thankful with the verb stem and end the sentence with
Lyn: 어 줘서 고마워요 (eo jwoseo gomawoyo).
Eric: Here is another example meaning, "Thanks for teaching me Korean." First, the noun, "Korean."
Lyn: 한국어 (hangugeo).
Eric: Second, the verb stem, "to teach."
Lyn: 가르치 (gareuchi).
Eric: Third, the phrase, "for doing."
Lyn: 어 줘서 (eo jwoseo).
Eric: And last, the expression, "thanks."
Lyn: 고마워요 (gomawoyo).
Eric: Altogether we have...
Lyn: 한국어 가르쳐 줘서 고마워요. (hangugeo gareuchyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [slow] 한국어 가르쳐 줘서 고마워요. (hangugeo gareuchyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [normal] 한국어 가르쳐 줘서 고마워요. (hangugeo gareuchyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Eric: "Thanks for teaching me Korean."
[pause]
Lyn: 한국어 가르쳐 줘서 고마워요. (hangugeo gareuchyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
Eric: How do you say - "Thanks for fixing my computer." To give you a hint, the verb-stem "to fix" is...
Lyn: 고치 (gochi). [slow] 고치 (gochi). [normal] 고치 (gochi).
Eric: "Thanks for fixing my computer."
[pause]
Lyn: 컴퓨터 고쳐 줘서 고마워요. (keompyuteo gochyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [slow] 컴퓨터 고쳐 줘서 고마워요. (keompyuteo gochyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.) [normal] 컴퓨터 고쳐 줘서 고마워요. (keompyuteo gochyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
[pause]
Lyn: 컴퓨터 고쳐 줘서 고마워요. (keompyuteo gochyeo jwoseo gomawoyo.)
