It's "I'm thinking about meeting a friend" 친구하고 만나려고 해요. is "I'm going to meet a friend/ I'm intending to meet a friend." 친구하고 만날 거예요.

As for the second question of yours,

친구하고 말날까 해요 is the most serious, and you’re not 100% sure. It’s “I’m thinking about meeting a friend”

친구하고 만나려고 해요. is “I’m going to meet a friend/ I’m intending to meet a friend.”

친구하고 만날 거예요. “I’m meeting a friend later.”

친구하고 만날게요. is like telling someone your plan, almost like reporting :)

Perhaps it will be addressed in lessons further down the line but I was wondering where in the so to say 'order of seriousness' of intention this conjunction fits. Would it be sorta like, from least serious to definite: 친구하고 만날까 해요 찬구하고 만나려고 해요 친구하고 만날 거예요 찬구하고 만날게요 And I'm sure there are many more :) / :( Oh whoops I forgot to ask this last time.

Do they really conjugate to for example 돕다 -> 도으려고 하다 and 눕다 -> 누으려고 하다? I would think 도오려고/누우려고 because this is what happens with all other 으 'infixes/binding vocals' I know, for example with (으)시 or (으)면. I have a question about the irregular ㅂ verbs.

I'm not too sure whether this question has been asked/answered, but just to clear it up, what about 하다 verbs? Do you just say ...하려고 하다? Sorry. This is probably a stupid question, and I'm randomly just slowly trying out this series (I'm not too sure whether I'm actually up to it yet or not, but I wanted something a bit more challenging! :wink:)!

After listening to your dialogue, I was wondering how to speak to my friend who is a guy 1 year older than me. Is it ok to talk to him in casual level or, should I speak in standard level? Is it rude to speak in the casual level because he's 1 year older? Thank you for your wonderful job at koreanclas101 !! Hyunwoo, you're majoring in French? C'est super !

I also enjoy the conversations in Korean between you guys and use them as the basis for most of my learning. I have two questions about this lesson: (1) In the sentence, 저녁 식사는 밖에서 하고 들어갈게, would you translate the 하고 as "and" so a literal word-for-word translation would be "evening meal outside and go back will" or does it mean "do (하) and (고) " to make the sentence, "evening meal outside do and go back will"?? (2) The sentence 수진이랑 오랜만에 같 이 저녁 식사 하려고 is translated as "I'm going to have dinner with Sujin, it's been a while." I thought it may be "I have been planning for a long time to have dinner with Sujin." If not, then how would you translate my sentence into Korean? The English present perfect is problematic. So could you help with these sentences? (a) I am watching the tennis. > 테니스를 보고 있어. (b) I was watching the tennis. > 테니스를 보고 있었어 (c) I watched the tennis. > 테니스를 봤어 (c) I have been watching the tennis. 테니스를 본 있었어 (?) Thanks for your great work!

And it's ok if you don't understand everything the hosts say, as long as you get the gist of the lesson. You'll also notice that if you come back to the lesson later, you will suddenly understand the hosts' Korean comments much better! It's a nice way to measure your progress. Hyunwoo: depending on the time of year, there are either 5 or 6 years between us. :cool: Shan - don’t worry, if you allow yourself to listen several times to the same lesson, you’ll start picking it up bit by bit.

The only thing is, I get really lost when the hosts speak only Korean. :sad: But I look forward to the day when I can understand everything in these lessons! :smile: I’m really glad that KClass is introducing this new series!
