Welcome to Three Step Korean Practice by KoreanClass101.com. In this lesson, you will practice how to make an invitation.
Let’s look at the main dialogue.
Two people are having a conversation.
근처에 있는 해변에 산책하러 같이 갈까요?
Geuncheoe inneun haebyeone sanchaekhareo gachi galkkayo?
Shall we go take a walk at the nearby beach together?
좋아요.
Joayo.
Sounds good.
"갈까요? (galkkayo?)" is the structure used as part of inviting someone to do something in Korean.
"까요 (kkayo)" is the polite form of the question ending to a verb.
"갈 (gal)" is the conjugated form of the verb meaning "to go." It is conjugated with "~ㄹ (~l)," as the stem ends with a vowel sound.
If the verb stem ends in a consonant, we conjugate with "~을 (~eul)" instead.

탈 (tal)

택시를 탈까요?
탈 is correct here because the root ends with a vowel sound, and so just ~ㄹ is added to the verb.

(Naeil yeonghwa (bol/boeul)kkayo?)
내일 영화 (볼 or 보을)까요?
볼 (bol)
내일 영화 볼까요?
(Naeil yeonghwa bolkkayo?)
Shall we watch a movie?
내일 영화 볼까요?
볼 is used here because 볼's root ends with a vowel, meaning just a ~ㄹ is added.
Let's translate some sentences into Korean. Ready?
Translate "Shall we get up early tomorrow morning?" into Korean.
내일 (naeil). tomorrow.
followed by
아침에 (achime). morning.
next
일찍 (iljjik). early.
followed by
일어날까요 (ireonalkkayo)? Shall we get up?
일어날 (ireonal) is the conjugated form of 일어나다 (ireonada), which means "to get up." The root of the verb, "일어나 (ireona)" ends in a vowel, so we conjugate it with just ㄹ (l).
내일 아침에 일찍 일어날까요?
(Naeil achime iljjik ireonalkkayo?)
Shall we get up early tomorrow morning?
내일 아침에 일찍 일어날까요?
Translate "Shall we meet at a cafe tomorrow?" into Korean.
내일 (naeil). tomorrow.
followed by
카페에서 (kapeeseo). cafe.
next
만날까요 (mannalkkayo)? Shall we meet?
만날 (mannal) is used because the root of "만나다 (mannada)," "만나 (manna)," ends with a vowel.
내일 카페에서 만날까요?
(Naeil kapeeseo mannalkkayo?)
Shall we meet at a cafe tomorrow?
내일 카페에서 만날까요?
Translate "Shall we eat at 6 in the evening?" into Korean.
저녁 (jeonyeok). evening.
followed by
6시에 (yuksie). 6 o'clock.
next
밥을 (babeul). dinner.
followed by
먹을까요 (meogeulkkayo)? Shall we eat?
The root of "먹다 (meokda)" is "먹 (meok)," and it ends in a consonant sound. So we add "~을 (eul)" to the end instead of just "ㄹ (l)."
저녁 6시에 밥을 먹을까요?
(Jeonyeok yuksie babeul meogeulkkayo?)
Shall we eat at 6 in the evening?
저녁 6시에 밥을 먹을까요?
Let's do some matching.
