    • @Princess-di2zx
      @Princess-di2zx 5 років тому +58

      *alittlelost* this why it's like a trap. We all learnt yo is behind verbs all this time. That we forget yo is suffix to the talk. Not a phrase or sentence
      Like every talk, when you pause you have to add yo.

    • @worldhola5090
      @worldhola5090 4 роки тому +54

      Logically, (-yo) used only on verbs.
      ex) Is this coffee?
      It is(be) coffee. 커피(예)요. (커피입니다.)
      There is verb "to be".
      Will you come tomorrow?
      You meant tomorrow?
      -> Is(to be) it 'tomorrow' what you are saying?
      내일(이)요? (내일입니까?)
      So here is also verb on that sentence.
      Is that big?
      It is big.-> it is being big. 커요. (큽니다.)
      크다.(being big) it is verb.
      So what you knew was correct.
      It's used only on verb.

    I practice Korean so often. I know many common phrases. Well, I worked at a store for a while and an elderly Korean woman came in and no one understood her. I did! I was so happy. It was my chance to practice with someone who spoke the language BUT everything I had learned and remembered flew out the window. My mind was blank. After a couple of seconds I remembered and spoke informally to her. What a complete failure! When she left I went through the conversation in my mind and how I'd messed it up. My co worker was impressed that I knew Korean at all and didn't understand why I was so bummed.

    This tip is a really good reminder.
    It's easy to think of ~요 as the ending to a 존댓말 “conjugation"-but there's really nothing being conjugated (in an English language sense) in one-word sentences with nouns or interrogative words. It's more like whatever you say has to end in ~요. That applies to expressions like "Really?" 정말요? also.

    Once I accidentally used 당신 when I was talking to my teacher and I addressed the question: 당신의 이름이 뭐예요? When I just started learning korean and my teacher told me not to use the sentence in that way since it sounded rude.

I said "여기 여기" without thinking about it and the Korean friend I was with looked at me like I cursed her out... Sometimes you gotta learn the hard way ㅠㅠ
