여러분… Newbie Season 1보다 Newbie Season2가 좋아요?
(Everyone… do you like Newbie Season 2 more than Newbie Season 1?)

avatar Ed says:

Ah, yes, that quintessentially Korean animal, the 경상도 zebra, an expert at playing the 아쟁 and one of the finest purveyors of the highest quality 새우젓 :wink: :lol: :lol:

avatar Shan says:

Is the subject marker 이/가 absolutely necessary in this construct?

Also, is there going to be a lesson on most/least? That would be helpful too.

Ed :)

경상도 Zebra? ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ 사실 한국에서는 얼룩말을 보려면 동물원에 가야 하죠 ㅋㅋ 저는 한 번도 얼룩말을 실제로 본 적이 없어요.

Shan :)

In this structure, since you’re choosing either one of the options, you’re automatically ‘emphasizing’ one option over the other ^^ so the subject marker is almost always necessary :)

And yes, we’ll definitely do a lesson on most/least ^^!!

This grammar’s about the most difficult I’ve encountered so far. I learnt it some time ago, but it’s still hard to remember which is which, so I think thinking of “보다” is going to be helpful.

네. Newbie Season 1보다 Newbie Season2가 좋아요! 하지민 Newbie Seasons보다 Beginner Seasons이 좋아요. I learn best through grammar, so before I’d completed Beginner Season1, and started some other grammar, I found the Newbie Seasons really difficult. XD

avatar Shena says:

It’s really interesting to know that the word “simple” in korean has a negative connotation because it’s different here in the Philippines. “Simple” has a positive connotation…^^

I love both Newbie Season 2 and Newbie Season 1. (What’s the Kroean translation for this sentence?^^) thanks! ^^

avatar 선현우 says:

Chriss :)

Newbie가 Beginner보다 더 어려워요? :grin:

Shena :)

Haha. Sometimes we use the word ‘간단하다’ like 간단한 문제 (a simple problem) or a 간단한 식사 (a simple meal) but I don’t think the either 간단하다 or 단순하다 has that much of a positive connotation unlike in the Philippines :) Some other words are used to describe something by being simple ^^

BTW, “I love both Newbie Season 2 and Newbie Season 1.” in Korean is “Newbie Season2도 Newbie Season1도 좋다요.” or “Newbie Season 2, 1, 둘 다 좋아요.”

:)
