| Do you know how to say how to talk about transportation in Korean? |
| Welcome to Three Step Korean Practice by KoreanClass101.com. In this lesson, you will practice how to talk about transportation. |
| Let’s look at the main dialogue. |
| Two people are having a conversation about how long it will take to go somewhere. |
| 얼마나 걸려요? |
| Eolmana geollyeoyo? |
| How long does it take? |
| 45분 정도 걸려요. 지하철로 같이 갈래요? |
| Sasibo bun jeongdo geollyeoyo. Jihacheollo gachi gallaeyo? |
| It takes about 45 minutes. Shall we go together by subway? |
| 미안하지만 저는 너무 피곤해요. 저는 택시로 갈 거예요. |
| Mianhajiman jeoneun neomu pigonhaeyo. Jeoneun taeksiro gal geoyeyo. |
| I'm sorry, but I'm really tired. I will go by taxi. |
| In this conversation, both people talked about how they would get to the destination. This person |
| Says 지하철로 같이 갈래요? (Jihacheollo gachi gallaeyo?). "Shall we go together by subway?" In this sentence, we have the word "지하철," (Jihacheol) followed by "~로" (~ro). This "~로" shows that 지하철 is being used as a means of transport in the sentence. |
| Then, this person |
| Says "저는 택시로 갈 거예요 (Jeoneun taeksiro gal geoyeyo)." I will go by taxi. Again, the word for taxi, "택시 (taeksi)" is followed by "~로 (~ro)" to mark it as the means of transport. |
| If the word ends in a consonant that isn't "~ㄹ (~l)," then "~으로" (~euro) is added instead. |
