Books (about reading them) [this] I like it (would be like a rough translation?) it's the 읽는 것을...part that throws me off. I feel it's like saying: About reading(읽는) *then the 것을 turns it into the object in which you like (좋아해)? it's even more confusing with the book with object marker infront of all of it. I get the sentence. I just want to understand more about this kind of syntax. 혹시, 예문을더 만들어도돼요? I’m a little confused with the syntax of the following sample sentence from the vocab page:

혹시, 예문을더 만들어도돼요?

You never know when even a few basic words will come in handy. Russian is a very widely spoken language, so it’s worth learning. You never know when even a few basic words will come in handy.

"설명해 주셔서 감사합니다" is correct! or you can make it a little less formal and say "설명해 줘서 고마워요" or "설명해 줘서 고마워" ;-) Jeff, "엄마: 안 돼~! 숙제 해!!" ㅋㅋㅋ 민식, "너희" is the plural form of "너" ^^ 너는 누구야? = Who are you? (intimate politeness) 너희는 누구야? = Who are you people? (intimate politeness) Max, 예를 들어서 means "for example" 예 in Japanese is 例(rei) ;-) 들다 is to pick or to present ;-) so 예를 들어서 or 예를 들면 means, for example, or 比如说 Jacqueline, 맞아요.

“설명해 주셔서 감사합니다” is correct!

or you can make it a little less formal and say

“설명해 줘서 고마워요” or “설명해 줘서 고마워” ;-)

Jeff,

“엄마: 안 돼~! 숙제 해!!” ㅋㅋㅋ

민식,

“너희” is the plural form of “너” ^^

너는 누구야? = Who are you? (intimate politeness)
너희는 누구야? = Who are you people? (intimate politeness)

Max,

예를 들어서 means “for example”

예 in Japanese is 例(rei) ;-)

들다 is to pick or to present ;-)

so 예를 들어서 or 예를 들면 means, for example, or 比如说

I've been wondering about how to say that actually. There's another little sentence that the hosts say over and over, I think it means "as we heard in the dialogue". "예를 들였어" Like I said, it usually comes before a teacher explains how something was used in the dialogue. Have I spelt it right? Great lesson! I’ve been wondering about how to say that actually.
