Actually, the spelling is right. 이에요 is the verb meaning 'to be' (formal). People usually make it short as 예요 (yeyo), but the original form is 이에요. So, 쌍둥이 + 이에요 is right. Or you can write it as 쌍둥이예요 (not 에요) I hope this helps. Thank you. - Jaehwi / Koreanclass101.com Hello Colin,

Let's compare the explanation with an English sentence. "A is better than B" 1. "A" is a subject => you need to attach 'subject particles' right after "A"; so it becomes "A" + 가 => A가 2. "than" can translate into 보다; therefore, "than B" => B보다 3. "better" can translate into 좋다 [jota] "good, better, nice" Therefore all together, "A is better than B" translates into... A가 + B보다 + 좋다 => A가 B보다 좋다. then what about this - "Coffee is better than water"? 1. 커피 [keopi] "coffee" + 가 => 커피가 2. 물 [mul] "water" + 보다 [boda] "than" => 물보다 3. 좋다 [jota] "is better" Therefore altogether, 커피가 물보다 좋다 "coffee is better than water" I hope this helps, (if you need any help for Korean grammatical point(s), please visit Koreanclass101.com and leave your question(s) there on our FORUM!) cheers, Tim :cool: Hello d,
Okay… let’s make it quick and simple!

Let’s compare the explanation with an English sentence.

“A is better than B”
1. “A” is a subject => you need to attach ’subject particles’ right after “A”; so it becomes “A” + 가 => A가
2. “than” can translate into 보다; therefore, “than B” => B보다
3. “better” can translate into 좋다 [jota] “good, better, nice”

Therefore all together, “A is better than B” translates into…
A가 + B보다 + 좋다 => A가 B보다 좋다.

then what about this - “Coffee is better than water”?
1. 커피 [keopi] “coffee” + 가 => 커피가
2. 물 [mul] “water” + 보다 [boda] “than” => 물보다
3. 좋다 [jota] “is better”
Therefore altogether, 커피가 물보다 좋다 “coffee is better than water”
I hope this helps, (if you need any help for Korean grammatical point(s), please visit Koreanclass101.com and leave your question(s) there on our FORUM!)
