July 28th, 2008

Graduation is today, and he doesn’t even know it! Now that’s one lost student! In this lesson, our lazy and lost student is going to give some more reasons to why he’s not at school. But as today’s graduation, the teacher will be giving the reason why he should come to school. And as this lesson is all about reasons, we’ll be going over another way to give reasons in Korean! As Korean grammar can be quite subtle, we’ll go over the slight nuances between the different ways we can give reasons. Don’t forget to listen in and learn Korean vocabulary and Korean grammar with KoreanClass101.com! And after listening, don’t forget to stop by KoreanClass101.com and leave us a post! Korean Students and Teachers get along well

It finally stopped raining in Korea!
드디어 한국은 비가 그쳤어요 :)

I’m glad because it stopped raining!

avatar Ta-Sing says:

오늘은 내 비번있어서 오늘밤에 가족이랑 스시를 먹어요 그래서 지금 흥분해요 그리고 오늘 꼭 휴식해야 해요.

Could I replace “스리를 먹어요 그래서 지금 흥분해요” with “스시를 먹으서 지금 흥분해요” but that means I would have used “어서” twice in one sentence. . .

Thanks!

式 Is this the hanja you mentioned it’s very commonly used in korea’s ceremonies ?
Is that pronounced 식?

avatar 선현우 says:

Ta-Sing :)

스시 맛있었어요? ^^ 한국어로는 “스시”라고 해도 괜찮은데, “초밥”이라고 해요. :mrgreen: (’초’ - vinegar + ‘밥’ - rice)

You can say “오늘 비번이어서, 가족들이랑 초밥을 먹을 수 있어서 신나요” :)

→ 흥분하다 = to get all worked up / to get upset and excited
→ 신나다 = to get excited :)

→ to be off-duty = 비번이다 ( 비번이 있다 [ x ] )

avatar 선현우 says:

Jacqueline :)

응! 맞아! Yeah that’s right!

式 is the hanja behind ‘식’ :)

결혼식, 졸업식, 예식, 약혼식, 입학식, 방학식, 개학식, 시무식 … etc :)

Margaret의 숙제

1. 졸업식에 과식해서 배가 아파요. :mrgreen:
2. KoreanClass101을 찿아서 기븐이 좋아졌어요. :mrgreen:

What is the difference between:

오늘 몸이 안 좋아서 학교에 안 가요.
오늘 몸이 안 좋으니까 학교에 안 가요.

Is (으)니까 stronger?
Thank you :smile:

avatar Margaret says:

기분! :razz:

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

Margaret :)

Yes, like you said, (마가렛 씨가 말한 것처)

안 좋으니까 is stronger than 안 좋아서, and it shows justification. :)

avatar maxiewawa says:

드디어 산헤은 비가 왔어요 :)

Here’s the same 내용 with some spelling correction added :)

드디어 상해에 비가 왔어요.
비가 와서 기뻐요.
요즘 너무 뜨거워서, 비가 와서 기뻐요.
오늘 시원해!

avatar maxiewawa says:

avatar Austin says:

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: 장마 끝!!

avatar 선현우(Hyunwoo Sun) says:

Max :)

오늘은 어떤 내용의 플래시카드? :)

만들여고 –> 만드려고 (or 만들려고 is fine too)

Austin,
맞아!
장마 끝! 더위 (다시) 시작!! ㅎㅎㅎ

avatar Chriss says:

Hm… what was the female version of “몸이 안 좋다?” I didn’t quite catch it! ^ ^ Btw, are there a lot of marked words, i.e. words for women?

avatar 제임스 says:

오늘은 정말 배 고파서 많이 먹었어요. 근데 저는 항상 배가 고파요. 여러분은 한국어 공부하기 어떻습니까? 제 한국어 어떻습니까?
