POST |
Becky: Listen again to 재우 (Jae-Wu)'s post. |
Jaehwi: 오랜만의 가족 모임! 조카들이 많이 컸네. (oraenmanui gajok moim! jokadeuri mani keonne.) |
Becky: "Long time since a family gathering. Nephews have grown up a lot." |
Jaehwi: (SLOW) 오랜만의 가족 모임! 조카들이 많이 컸네. (oraenmanui gajok moim! jokadeuri mani keonne.) (Regular) 오랜만의 가족 모임! 조카들이 많이 컸네. (oraenmanui gajok moim! jokadeuri mani keonne.) |
Becky: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "It’s been a long time since a family gathering" |
Jaehwi: 오랜만의 가족모임! (oraenmanui gajok moim! ) |
Becky: You can use the noun.. |
Jaehwi: 오랜만 (oraenman) |
Becky: ..to mean "after a long time, been a long time" so you can use it with other event names, such as |
Jaehwi: 오랜만의 동창회 (oraenmanui dongchangheo) |
Becky: which means "Long time since an alumni gathering." for example. Listen again- "Long time since a family gathering" is... |
Jaehwi: (SLOW) 오랜만의 가족모임! (oraenmanui gajok moim! ) (REGULAR) 오랜만의 가족모임! (oraenmanui gajok moim! ) |
Becky: Then comes the phrase - "Nephews have grown up a lot.." |
Jaehwi: 조카들이 많이 컸네. (jokadeuri mani keonne.) |
Becky: In Korean, just one word.. |
Jaehwi: 조카 (joka) |
Becky: ..can be used to mean both nephews and nieces. Listen again- "Nephews have grown up a lot." is... |
Jaehwi: (SLOW) 조카들이 많이 컸네. (jokadeuri mani keonne.) (REGULAR) 조카들이 많이 컸네. (jokadeuri mani keonne.) |
Becky: All together, "Long time since a family gathering. Nephews have grown up a lot." |
Jaehwi: 오랜만의 가족 모임! 조카들이 많이 컸네. (oraenmanui gajok moim! jokadeuri mani keonne.) |
