| INTRODUCTION |
| Dana: Hi, everyone. I'm Dana. |
| Jaehwi: And I'm Jaehwi. |
| Dana: And welcome to Must-Know Korean Sentence Structures, Season 1, Lesson 33 - Saying You Want to Do Something. |
| Dana: In this lesson, you'll learn a sentence pattern for expressing the desire to do something. |
| PATTERN |
| Dana: For example... |
| Dana: "I would like to drink coffee." |
| Jaehwi: 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) |
| Jaehwi: [slow] 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) |
| Dana: The pattern for expressing the desire to do something has 3 elements. First, there’s the noun “coffee”. |
| Jaehwi: 커피 (keopi). |
| Dana: Second, the verb stem. |
| Jaehwi: 마시 (masi). |
| Dana: Third, the sentence-ending particle “want to”. |
| Jaehwi: ㄹ래 (lrae). |
| Dana: All together, we have "I would like to drink coffee." |
| Jaehwi: 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) [slow] 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) [normal] 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) |
| Dana: This grammatical structure is used to express the speaker's intention for the future. You start with a noun followed by the verb stem of the action you desire to do in the future, followed by the particle… |
| Jaehwi: ㄹ/을래 (l/eulrae). |
| Dana: If the verb stem ends with a vowel, you use... |
| Jaehwi: ㄹ래 (lrae). |
| Dana: and when it ends with a consonant you add |
| Jaehwi: 을래 (eulrae). |
| Jaehwi: 커피 마실래. (keopi mashilrae.) |
| Dana: So remember, simply add ㄹ/을래 (l/eulrae) after the verb stem to express your desire to do something. |
| Dana: Here is another example, meaning "I want to eat rice." First, there’s the noun “rice”. |
| Jaehwi: 밥 (bap). |
| Dana: Second, the verb stem. |
| Jaehwi: 먹 (meok). |
| Dana: Third, the sentence-ending particle “want to”. |
| Jaehwi: 을래 (eulrae). |
| Dana: All together, we have... |
| Jaehwi: 밥 먹을래. (bap meoggeulrae) [slow] 밥 먹을래. (bap meoggeulrae) [normal] 밥 먹을래. (bap meoggeulrae) |
| Dana: "I want to eat rice," or “I’ll have rice.” |
| [pause] |
| Jaehwi: 밥 먹을래. (bap meoggeulrae) |
| Dana: How do you say "I want to watch a movie"? To give you a hint, "want to see" is... |
| Jaehwi: 볼래 (bollae). [slow] 볼래 (bollae). [normal] 볼래 (bollae). |
| Dana: "I want to watch a movie." |
| [pause] |
| Jaehwi: 영화 볼래. (yeonghwa bollae) [slow] 영화 볼래. (yeonghwa bollae) [normal] 영화 볼래. (yeonghwa bollae) |
| [pause] |
| Jaehwi: 영화 볼래. (yeonghwa bollae) |
