Korean Language~~한국어~2

Hi~~~^^

Today let's go on with the explanation of the basis...>}

I will show u how to build a sentence xDxD even if it can seems though, with a bit of practice (since the order of words is different from English word..and resembles a little bit to German order of words).

Here we go!

1. SENTENCE ORDER~

A sentence can be create following 3 ways...: 

SUBJECT + NOUN

SUBJECT + VERB

SUBJECT + ADJECTIVE

SUBJECT + OBJECT + VERB

NB: The tense of the sentence is determinated by the end of it: noun, verb, adjective, or verb.

For example: to go....went...

good....was good...

in Korean : 

to go = 가다 (ka)...went = 갔다 (katta)

good = 좋다 (choda)...was good = 촣았다 (choatta)

Anyway...these will be explained better later~

In Korean, to distinguish subject or object u should use some particles, that explain the function:

• 는 & 은 (introduce a topic)

는 is used for nouns without a final consonant, and 은 for nouns with a final consonant.

EX: 난 (consonant+vowel) 사람은. (i am a person) ~na nun sa ram un

그는 친절하다 ~ geu nun tchin chor ha da (he is kind)

• 가 & 이

가 can be used to express who did the action, while u can use 는 to express the action.

for example ~ 내가 샀다 = i bought smth. (the attention is focused on who did the action)

난 샀다 = i bought = the attention is focused on the fact that i bought rather than doing smth)

가 is used for words without a final consonant and 이 for words with a final consonant.

for example ~ 민지가 왔다 = Min-ji came 

or 

동생이 먹었다 = younger sister ate.

Byeee~
