This is Jaehwi from Koreanclass101.com Joa 좋아 and Joahae have the same meaning; to like. 해 hae is the simplified form of 하다 so 좋아해 literally means 'to DO like' while 좋아 means 'to like' (both are informal) Usually, parents ask their children if the kids like father or mother by saying 아빠보다 엄마가 더 좋아? (appa boda eommaga deo joa) boda means 'more than' I hope this helps. Thank you. - Jaehwi / Koreanclass101.com Hello Vivian,

안녕하세요. This is Jaehwi from Koreanclass101.com

Joa 좋아 and Joahae have the same meaning; to like. 해 hae is the simplified form of 하다 so 좋아해 literally means ‘to DO like’ while 좋아 means ‘to like’ (both are informal)

Usually, parents ask their children if the kids like father or mother by saying 아빠보다 엄마가 더 좋아? (appa boda eommaga deo joa) boda means ‘more than’

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

Why does the child in the conversation say appa-boda eomma-ga joa and not appa-boda eomma-ga johahae? Kamsahamnida :grin: Annyeonghaseyo :)

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." :) Chriss :)

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.”

"Simple" has a positive connotation...^^ I love both Newbie Season 2 and Newbie Season 1. (What's the Kroean translation for this sentence?^^) thanks! ^^ 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 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.

Also, is there going to be a lesson on most/least? That would be helpful too. Is the subject marker 이/가 absolutely necessary in this construct?
