It's really interesting that Sino-Korean words compared to native Korean words have a similar role as Latin/French originated words having in English compared to native English words. Where Sino-Korean words and Latin/French words both sound more formal and are often used in academic and formal contexts, where native words in Korean and English are automatically seen as more casual and better for everyday usage. It's funny how language works out that way.
Tiffany Lord Honestly, Korean is so interesting to me because I feel like it's the English of the East. Maybe it isn't as global, but the writing system is based on single letters/sounds, so much of it can be contracted, words all have stem parts that can be recombined to make dual-words or even slang, everything that you mentioned, and also kind of the culture. Lots of food and friends and family, a sturdy drinking culture, and a little bit of other cultures here and there. I love it.
'아니면' is 'if it is not true... or ' if it should not be considered.... '혹은' has a nuance the probability of the later is lower than '또는' . In case A '또는' B , A , B has same strength or intensity or probability. but A '혹은' B then, A is normal and B is possible but the probability or exspecting of B is lower than A.
Finding out that your older lessons are just as good as the more recent ones. My favourite resource to use between lessons with my tutor. I have tried many and none are as good as you at explaining definitions and uses. Thank you for always being so clear and making things simple to understand.
Chinese characters are like the word parts originated from Latin or Greek words in English. '태양' is similar to 'solar' and '해 ' is similar to 'sun'. '태' is 'great' or 'big' and '양' is 'positive' or 'sun rays' as Chinese characters.
thank you sooo much for explaining this. I was so confused. This completely cleared it up for me!!! : This is my first TTMIK video, and now, I will continue to watch other ones by you all! Yay!
Hello! My understanding was that 어울리다 would be used to say that someone or something suits someone (e.g., 잘 어울리세요), although I recently was watching a drama and saw that when a character said 닿으세요 it was translated with the same meaning of “it suits you.” May I ask for more information on the usage of 어울리다 and 닿다? Also, are there other ways to say that something looks good on or suits someone? Thank you.
I understood the difference between yesanghada and gidaehada once you explained it, because gidae sounds like it's derived from 期待, which means look forward.
I love seeing the way of your teaching.. so informative..so clear. Only thing is sometimes I need the teaching to be informal. But this is channel is always formal
I noticed myself right away thinking of as "or" as "anim" I guess because I listen to too many casual speakers. Thank you so much for clarifying the different formalities and their connotations when used in conversation.
Talking about 혹은, I've seen the word 혹시 a lot on Instagram. The Naver dictionary only shows examples but not definition. It only shows two hanja: 或是 which as I understand means "or/either one or the other" in Chinese. But, what it actually means in Korean? If it means the same, it is also the same as 혹은?
MRKLBS the way my Korean teacher friends use 혹시 is “by any chance~ /is it possible to~” Ex. @ a restaurant: 혹시, 포장 해도 돼요? By any chance, do you do take out?
So can 죽다 also be used for like plants or your phone? My phone died, the flowers died. Things like that? And you’d use the other one when being polite too? Like you’d not use 죽다 when you tell someone their grandmother has passed away?
Hello.Teacher. I have some questions to ask you. The question is How do you say "to (infinitive) "in korean like 1. I do something to.....( do something)2.I want to get something to....Thanks in advance for your answers
Sun works pretty much alike in Japanese. Often as 日 hi (해), but also 太陽 taiyou (태양), whereas sea uses the same kanji/ hanja, but sounds really different umi 海 =D Btw... I like names starting with "태" a lot. Like Taeyang, Taecyeon, Taeyeon, Taemin haha
海's umi pronouciation is from the native japanese pronounciation. So before the chinese influenced then they were already saying something similar to umi and the chinese pronounciation might not be used at all. Like for 心 koreans pronouce it like 심 while japanese use their native way of the same meaning kokoro. So its just the same word and wya of writing it but its said differently. Japanese just borrowed the hanja/kanji for writing not always pronouciation
I always felt like 아니면 is more like an “either..or..” type “or”, whereas 이나 doesn’t necessarily exclude an option (kind of like saying and/or); for example in the sentence “I’m going by taxi or by subway” I would use 아니면 cause choosing one option excludes the other, and in a sentence like “I get nausea when I eat sugary foods or dairy products” I would use 이나 cause both options are still possible - am I wrong in that assumption? I thought there was a slight difference at least
We can use"아니면or" in a question, for example, 너 커피 마실래? 아니면 차 마실래? it means What do you want to drink，coffee or tea？，but we never use "혹은/또는" or "나/이나" in a question~ I think it's the main difference between “아니면" and “혹은/ 또는, 나/이나"。And 아니면 also used in some sentences like“너 아니면 그가 잘못이다 which means either you or he is wrong” , We can't say “ 너 혹은 그가 잘못이다" /" 너나 그가 잘못이다"~~
"BUT" in korean you can use any of those, But i think you can use either of them, Just like in english, However/whatsoever etc.. I think you can use any of those but im not sure try doing some more research :D
And there is a another honorific form of "to die" is 돌아가 셨다 but I'm a lil bit of confused about this word because I don't know in which situation we used this word
does casual speech is always strange to use with people that you don't know because I hear it a lot so I was wondering if it's still formal if I say it to someone I don't really know
When i speak my strongest language which is Russian i sometimes address my close friends Sun if i want to be like soft loving appreciating And i remember myself trying to do so when I was commenting under photo my favourite Korean Idol posted(Sunoo from en-) And even he most likely haven’t saw it, i feel sooooo embarrassed to call him 태양
i really want to know one thing in this is that i have learnt that 아니면 is like "or" which connect the "two options" like choosing for one but when it comes to ~(이)나 this way of saying "or" is different like in this its not useful offering choices to someone instead using ~(이)나 is like saying "wheather or, or something and not choices" and its use when person you talking to isn't required to choose only one of these choices, like in two options someone don't need to choose infact the person would be okay if he use both two options. is it correct or not? i m so confused coz i have learnt this! help me pls!
I have asked myself a thousand times, why Korean has to be so complicated! Why does the simplest of words, "or" have 4+ different forms in Korean? "And" is even worse. Thank you for attempting to explain what is impossible to really understand.
Sunghyo Park 그리고 is only used to connect two sentences, mostly in casual every day language you would probably say “I want this and that” but in this case, you aren’t connecting two sentences so 그리고 isn’t used. But, it is used often, I hear it a ton :)
I am a bit confused... Is it just my mobile that shows a different character... I mean is it 덨어요 or 텄어요 or what cause the ㄷ is different in video.. Its more like ㅂ rotated to right once.... Also.. Thank you for the superb videos.. 감사합니다
I wanna use (더종결과를기대어요) if i even spelled that right 😭😂 i want to use it to bother someone when they say ohhh i got an A or something like that i could say i expected better 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Please correct me if I am wrong " 우리는 어머니들에게이 앨범을 사기 위해; 1 년 설거지를 약속했던." Meaning " we promised our mothers to wash the dishes for a year in order to buy these albums" And correct the english sentence too ^^ Both are not my native languages.

Ex. @ a restaurant:

It means perhaps
Its uses in sentences with if, but doesn't have a meaning on its own.
Thank you for today's lesson..
Thanks for the video, it's really help me to understand more clearly!!! :))
ahh thanks for clearing up 태양 i always hear that in north korean songs now i know.

사망 is sino Korean while 죽 is native Korean
from Palestine ( Arab country ) thank you
is 바다 a native Korean word then? since you mentioned that 해 is a sino Korean word originated from Chinese or does 바다 not mean sea at all? 😅
Yes : ) 바다 is a native Korean word that means "sea".
btw 사망 and 사고 seem to share the same ‘사’ but are in fact different in meaning
lkyyy Actually the 사 is different too. 사망 Has 죽을 사 (死) meaning death and 사고 has 일 사 (事) which means like, a thing or an event.

Albert Sherpa and 일 can mean ‘day’ or ‘date’ also.
what’s the difference between ~고 싶어요 and ~고 싶다?
edit: I mean what situation to use each one?
hazynotes -고 싶어요 is just the formal present tense conjugation of -고 싶다
just that one is conjugated and one isn´t
고 싶다 is the dictionary form of ‘want to’
You have to conjugate it to use it and the conjugated version of it is 고 싶어요 ( present tense )
So is this 혹 the same root as in 혹시?
Yes
