| POST |
| Becky: Listen again to Jaewu's post. |
| Jaehwi: 너무 맛있어! 완추! (neomu massisseo. wanchu!) |
| Becky: "It's so delicious! Thumbs-up!" |
| Jaehwi: (SLOW) 너무 맛있어! 완추! (neomu massisseo. wanchu!) (Regular) 너무 맛있어! 완추! (neomu massisseo. wanchu!) |
| Becky: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "It's so delicious!." |
| Jaehwi: 너무 맛있어! (neomu massisseo.) |
| Becky: Here, we have the adverb.. |
| Jaehwi: 너무 |
| Becky: which means "too" as in "too good."In written and formal Korean, this adverb can be used only inside a negative sentence, for example.. |
| Jaehwi: 너무 나쁘다 |
| Becky: .. which means "it's too bad." However, more and more people have started using it in positive expressions too, the way it was used in this sentence. Note that when you write a comment on social media, it’s better to use the spoken Korean. Listen again. "It's so delicious!" is... |
| Jaehwi: (SLOW) 너무 맛있어! (neomu massisseo.) (REGULAR) 너무 맛있어! (neomu massisseo.) |
| Becky: Then comes the phrase - "Thumbs-up, highly recommended!." |
| Jaehwi: 완추! (wanchu) |
| Becky: This is a slang word which literally means "completely recommended!" Here, we have the word.. |
| Jaehwi: 완 |
| Becky: which is from the word.. |
| Jaehwi: 완전 |
| Becky: ..meaning "completely", and next we have.. |
| Jaehwi: 추 |
| Becky: which is from the noun |
| Jaehwi: 추천 |
| Becky:.. meaning "recommendation." You can use it to say "Thumbs-up" or "highly recommended." Listen again."Thumbs-Up, Highly Recommended!" is... |
| Jaehwi: (SLOW) 완추! (wanchu) (REGULAR) 완추! (wanchu) |
| Becky: All together, "It's so delicious! Thumbs-up!" |
| Jaehwi: 너무 맛있어! 완추! (neomu massisseo. wanchu!) |
