Jaehwi: (SLOW) 새해 복 많이 받으세요! (saehae bok mani badeuseyo!) (Regular) 새해 복 많이 받으세요! (saehae bok mani badeuseyo!)
Becky: Let's break this down. First is an expression meaning "New Year's luck."
Jaehwi: 새해 복
Becky: The noun..
Jaehwi: 새해 (saehae)
Bekcy: is the natural Korean word meaning "New Year." There’s another word meaning “New Year” which is..
Jaehwi: 신년 (shin-nyeon)
Becky: Since this word is made with Chinese characters, Korean people don’t use it in spoken Korean, but more in the written language. Listen again- "New Year's luck" is...
Jaehwi: (SLOW) 새해 복 (REGULAR) 새해 복
Becky: Then comes the phrase - "Please receive a lot.."
Jaehwi: 많이 받으세요
Becky: This expression has the honorific verb. You can use it with someone older than you. Between friends, you can say..
Jaehwi: 많이 받아 (mani bada)
Becky: Listen again- "Please receive a lot." is...
Jaehwi: (SLOW) 많이 받으세요 (REGULAR) 많이 받으세요
Becky: All together, "Happy New Year!"
Jaehwi: 새해 복 많이 받으세요! (saehae bok mani badeuseyo!)
