여러분… 왜 그래?
(Everyone… what’s wrong?)

avatar 아니카 says:

그냥 … 공주이야 :mrgreen:

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

아니카 … 하하하…

공주님 ^^

avatar Bouks says:

그냥…여자이예요! :roll: :lol:

avatar 아니카 says:

선생님^^ 농담이에요 ㅋㅋ only Song Eun is one :mrgreen:

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

아니카 :) 그리고 Bouks ^_^

The words 공주 and 여자 end in a vowel,
so they’ll be “공주야/공주예요” or “여자야/여자예요” ^_^

avatar Bouks says:

Oops! What’s wrong with me, haha :wink: Thank you Hyunwoo :oops:

avatar 아니카 says:

그래요… whoops :roll: what is the Korean whoops? :mrgreen:
and what about the negation, is it 공주님아니야 ?ㅋㅋ

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

Haha :) Nothing’s wrong with you ^_^! It’s very natural that this -이야/야 conbination is tricky ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

Bouks, “What’s wrong with me?” in Korean is “나 왜 이래?” ㅎㅎ or “나 왜 이러지?” ㅎㅎ

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

아니카 :)

“whoops” in Korean is 아이고, 아이구, 에고, or 앗! :)

And you can say “나 공주(님) 아니야” to say that you’re not a princess in intimate language :)

avatar Bouks says:

Everyone, don’t cry! Listen to this song and laugh:

avatar 아니카 says:

아이구? mmh, my mom usually says that like아이구!
바보야 … ?!or 아이구! 슬프다…. :lol:

avatar 아니카 says:

Bouks…정말 웃겼어요!ㅋㅋㅋ silly MC Mong :lol:

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

On the Korean Net, people often like to tweak “아이구” or “어이쿠” and say “어잌후” which… looks bizarre but sounds the same thing as 어이쿠! ㅎㅎ

avatar 아니카 says:

어잌후? 진짜 이상해요…정말 이상해요? 진짜? 정말? 정말! :mrgreen:

avatar Jacqueline (쟈클린) says:

If you guys want to practice todays phrase, here’s the song ” 왜 이래 ” by 거북이. :smile:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTjjPaBRkts

Lyrics

거북이- 왜 이래

All)
가슴을 활짝펴고 크게 웃어요 하늘 향해 힘껏 소리쳐 봐요
답답한 가슴이 확풀어지도록 숨막힌 세상 시원하도록

갑자기 왜이래 난데 없이 왜이래 화만내면 무슨일이 잘돼나
안됀다면 내일해 화내지말고 내일해 지금 네게 필요한건 latitude of mind

명품점 세일해 대책없이 왜이래 참새가 황새따라 날다니 이리저리 체이네 독촉장에 메이네 제금네게 필요한말 Don’t you know your place?

이제까지 잘 참아왔어요 세상살이 그리 쉽지 않아요.
모든욕심 다 버릴거예요 차라리 바보소리 들어도
높은 하늘아래 수많은 건물 나 발딛을 자리조차 없네요.
무심하죠 아무도 날 사랑하지 않아 힘이 들어요.

노력을매일해 힘들어도 매일해 지금네게 필요한말 make an effort everyday

All)
가슴을 활짝펴고 크게 웃어요 하늘 향해 힘껏 소리쳐 봐요
답답한 가슴이 확풀어지도록 숨막힌 세상 시원하도록

중독성 게임에 또 밤샜니 왜이래 밤샌눈엔 약도 없어 그만해 쉴새 없이
싸인한 카드빚이 쌓이네 대책 없어 고민하네
everyday economize!

이제까지 잘 참아왔어요 세상살이 그리 쉽지 않아요.
모든욕심 다 버릴거예요 차라리 바보소리 들어도
높은 하늘아래 수많은 건물 나 발딛을 자리조차 없네요.
무심하죠 아무도 날 사랑하지 않아 힘이 들어요.

노력을 매일해 힘들어도 매일해 지금네게 필요한말 make an effort everyday

All)
가슴을 활짝펴고 크게 웃어요 하늘 향해 힘껏 소리쳐 봐요
답답한 가슴이 확풀어지도록 숨막힌 세상 시원하도록

=========================================
Question:

So 왜 그래 and 왜 이래 basically means the same thing: “What’s wrong?” …. right?

Literally it would be:
왜 그래 - Why are you like that?
왜 이래 - Why are you like this?

Right?

avatar Jacqueline (쟈클린) says:

I just remember that LSK (S4) did a lesson recently with a similar phrase ^^, here’s the direct link to watch ^^:

LSK (4) Lesson #16- 내가 왜 이러지? What’s wrong with me?

http://www.arirang.co.kr/Tv/Tv_Vod_High2.asp?pgcode=TVCR0430&vod_key=45439

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

아니카 ㅎㅎ

구글에서 “어잌후”라고 치니까 67,600개의 결과가 나왔어요 :)
I typed ‘어잌후’ in google and I got 67,600 results. Haha..

Jacqueline, :)
I can’t watch the video from the link T.T ~~

avatar Bouks says:

I saw that LSK lesson - although I failed to jot down the key expressions for later.

Arirang requires some sort of registration to watch their videos. I didn’t look into it in detail. I should probably sign up, though, because I’ve only got the privilege of watching the actual channel over the summer.

avatar Keith says:

I’m not exactly sure what’s going on, but I’ve alerted the tech team on this issue! We should be back up and running soon! :wink: Sorry for the inconvenience. :neutral:
