Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! Suddenly, as you are leaving the Korean university you attend, the rolling black thunderclouds above explode with a breathtaking downpour! Bursts of color appear around you as flowers sprouting from the awkward Korean sea of gray. Everyone at the Korean university has an umbrella…everyone but you! You recognize the person standing next to you from one of your classes as he exclaims in Korean, “It’s raining again?!” Attempting to figure out what your next move should be, protecting your books, and being polite all at once, you reply in Korean, “Yes, it’s raining a lot lately. I don’t have my umbrella!” Your classmate offers in Korean, “I have an umbrella. Please share it with me.” Feeling even more awkward now, you reply in Korean, “I have a car. I can make it, thanks.” Looking enlightened, your classmate replies in Korean, “Well, if you have a car, then can I have a ride?” Did you say “car?” Surely, you meant bike!

Hi!

What’s the difference (if any) between 자동차 and 차 ?

avatar
KoreanClass101.com says:

:razz: Hi kissja5302,

차(cha) and 자동차(jadongcha) means the same thing these days.
In the past, 차 meant all transportation methods including 마차(macha, wagon) and carriage. If it has wheels, they were called ‘차’.
자동차(jadongcha) only means auto-mobile. You cannot use it for other old ways of transportation.

These days, you can use both 차(cha)and 자동차(jadongcha) to call automobile or just cars.

vs.

:razz: Hi, Kissja5302.
I’m Jaehwi from Koreanclass101.com

-는데요(-neundeyo), or -은데요-(-eundeyo) adds the meaning of ‘as of now’.

If someone says ‘없어요 eopeoyo’, that means it has been not here so far.
However, if someone says ‘없는데요 eopneundeyo’, that means it is not here as of now. (It also means it might be here in the past or it will be in the future)

없는데 (eupneunde) is the informal version of ‘없는데요 eopneundeyo’
We have a related item on our grammar bank at http://www.koreanclass101.com/learningcenter/reference/grammar/590?
I wish this also help you learn about this particle

Thank you.

Is 누가 a contracted form of 누구가? :shock:

avatar
Koreanclass101.com says:

Hello Jg,

That’s right. 누가 means ‘who’ and you can consider it as the simplified form of 누구가 although Koreans don’t use the phrase 누구가 to mean ‘who’. : )
