Lesson focus |
|---|
| Keith: So Miseon-ssi, can you help us out, what are we focusing on? |
| Miseon: We’re focusing on, is to learn the expression related to pocket money, and also practice using the past tense. |
| Keith: Now, when talking about pocket money, I think two essential verbs to know know are "to give" and "to spend." |
| Miseon: 네 (ne). but first, the word for allowance or pocket money is 용돈 (yongdon) |
| Keith: One more time. |
| Miseon: 용돈, 용돈 (yongdon, yongdon) |
| Keith: So, how do you say: To give? |
| Miseon: 주다 (juda) |
| Keith: Right, 주다 (juda) is the verb that means to give. But in this conversation, how was it used? |
| Miseon: It was used in the form 줘 (jwo) which means “give me” in intimate language. |
| Keith: Yeah, the daughter didn’t feel the need to speak in formal language to her father, so she’s asking him to give her more allowance by using... |
| Miseon: 줘 (jwo). |
| Keith: How about when you want to be more polite? And you ask someone to get something to you? |
| Miseon: In this case you use the expression 주세요 (juseyo). |
| Keith: Ok, so let’s look at some examples, Miseon-ssi, examples 주세요 (juseyo). |
| Miseon: Oh, you got me. Okay. |
| Keith: All right, so how do you say: Give it to me, again? |
| Miseon: 줘 (jwo). |
| Keith: And that’s very casual. How about give me more? |
| Miseon: 더 줘 (deo jwo). |
| Keith: And how about give this to me? |
| Miseon: 이거 줘 (jwo). |
| Keith: "Give it to me quickly." |
| Miseon: 빨리 줘 (ppalli jwo). |
| Keith: "Please give it to me." politely? |
| Miseon: 이거 주세요 (igeo juseyo). |
| Keith: Ok, great job. Now, you ask for allowance, and you received it. So, you have to spend it. How do you say to spend? |
| Miseon: 쓰다 (sseuda) |
| Keith: Yeah, 쓰다 (sseuda) is the verb that means to use, or to spend when it comes to money. |
| Miseon: 네 (ne), and in this conversation the daughter is mentioning that she’s spent all of her allowance, therefore it was used in the past tense. |
| Keith: Right, so in order to change a verb into the past tense you add. |
| Miseon: -았 (-eot) |
| Keith: or -었 (-eot) |
| Miseon: or -였 (yeot) and -어 (eo) at the end of the verb stem, but with the verb 쓰다 (sseuda) since the verb stem 쓰 does not end in -아 (-a), you add -었 (-eot). |
| Keith: So what does it become? |
| Miseon: 썼어 (sseosseo). |
| Keith: Good, now you know what’s next, right? |
| Miseon: 네 (ne), examples. |
| Keith: That’s right, you know how we do it. So, how do you say: To use, again? |
| Miseon: 쓰다 (sseuda) |
| Keith: So, "I use." |
| Miseon: 써 (sseo). |
| Keith: "I used it." / "I spent it." |
| Miseon: 썼어 (sseosseo). |
| Keith: "I spent it." (polite) |
| Miseon: 썼어요 (sseosseoyo). |
| Keith: "I've spent all of it." |
| Miseon: 다 썼어요 (da sseosseoyo). |
| Keith: "I've spent all my allowance." |
| Miseon: 용돈 다 썼어요 (yongdon da sseosseoyo). |
