Sangcheol: No, I don't. If I want to buy a DVD player, where should I go?

Sangcheol: Really? Can you lend it to me?
Jiyun: If you want to borrow it, give me fifty thousand won. What do you say?
POST CONVERSATION BANTER
Hyunwoo: 경은씨.
Gyeongeun: 네.
Hyunwoo: I have a question that’s totally irrelevant to the dialogue of this lesson. Well maybe it is a little bit related.
Gyeongeun: 뭔데요? What is it?
Hyunwoo: When you say DVD in Korean, how do you say it?
Gyeongeun: 디비디.
Hyunwoo: Just like you did now?
Gyeongeun: Yeah. 디비디.
Hyunwoo: Do you always pronounce the letter V as B?
Gyeongeun: Yeah of course 당연하죠. 한국어에는 V 발음이 없잖아요. There is no V sound in Korean.
Hyunwoo: Yeah I know but I have noticed that a lot of people are starting to pronounce the Vs even while speaking Korean if the word comes from English.
Gyeongeun: Really? I don’t think so.
Hyunwoo: I think so.
Gyeongeun: I don’t.
Hyunwoo: Well since it’s a recent thing and since it can depend on individuals, let’s ask our listeners. Everyone, have you noticed this change when your Korean friends talk to you in Korean? Let us know what you think?
Gyeongeun: In the comment right?

VOCAB AND PHRASE USAGE
Hyunwoo: Now let’s have a closer look at the usage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson and today let’s look at some tech words in Korean.
Gyeongeun: Oh I don’t know much about technology.
Hyunwoo: Don’t worry 걱정하지 마세요. I am not going to go too much into technology. I think it will be nice if we introduce a few tech related words that Korean people use on a daily basis, even you use on a daily basis most of which come from the English language but are kind of changed into the Korean way of pronunciation. What do you think?
Gyeongeun: Okay sounds great. 좋아요.

Gyeongeun: 와이파이
Hyunwoo: And an MP3 player, how do you say that?
Gyeongeun: 엠피쓰리
Hyunwoo: 엠피쓰리
Gyeongeun: 네.
Hyunwoo: How about earphones?
Gyeongeun: 이어폰
Hyunwoo: 이어폰 Okay great. Now let’s go into the grammar section.
Gyeongeun: 네, 좋아요.

Lesson focus

Hyunwoo: What is the grammar point of this lesson?
Gyeongeun: The grammar point of this lesson is how to say in order to do something or if you want to do something in Korean
Hyunwoo: As in the example.
Gyeongeun: 지금 집에 가려면 택시 타야 돼요.
Hyunwoo: If I want to go home now, I have to take a taxi.
Gyeongeun: Right. So (으)려면 is a grammatical structure that you can use when you want to say in order to do something, if you want to do something or if you are going to do something.
Hyunwoo: 네. And this structure can be broken down into two parts right?
Gyeongeun: 네. The part 으려 expresses intention or plan
Hyunwoo: And 면 expresses a condition. So together, (으)려면 means if you are going to or if you want to. Therefore this structure is mostly used along with expressions regarding plans or intention. So how do you form a sentence with this structure?
Gyeongeun: You take the verb stem and add (으)려면 at the end.
Hyunwoo: For example 예를 들어서?
Gyeongeun: 가다 is to go. So you make it 가려면
Hyunwoo: If you want to go.
Gyeongeun: And 먹다 is to eat. So you make it 먹으려면
Hyunwoo: If you are going to eat. Great, so let’s look at some more examples from this dialogue.
Gyeongeun: 네, 좋아요. 근데, 이거 보려면 어떻게 해야 돼?
Hyunwoo: But what should I do to watch this?
Gyeongeun: 이거 보려면?
Hyunwoo: To watch this?
Gyeongeun: DVD 플레이어 사려면 어디 가야 돼?
Hyunwoo: If I want to buy a DVD player, where should I go?
Gyeongeun: 빌리려면 5만원 줘.
Hyunwoo: If you want to borrow it from me, give me 50,000 won. Now how about some more sample sentences. 경은씨, how would you say in Korean if I want to go to Seoul station, how should I get there?
Gyeongeun: 서울역에 가려면 어떻게 가야 돼요?
Hyunwoo: And how about where should I go if I want to buy a computer?
Gyeongeun: 컴퓨터를 사려면 어디에 가야 돼요?
Hyunwoo: Great and lastly how do you say if I want to fix this, whom should I talk to.
Gyeongeun: 이거 고치려면 누구한테 말해야 돼요?

Outro

Hyunwoo: Great job. That just about does it for today 경은씨.
Gyeongeun: 네, 수고하셨습니다.
Hyunwoo: 네, 정말 수고하셨고요. Before we go, we want to tell you about a very, very good way to improve your pronunciation right?
Gyeongeun: You are right. The voice recording tool
Hyunwoo: In the learning center.
Gyeongeun: Record your voice with the click of a button
Hyunwoo: And then play it back just as easily.
Gyeongeun: So you record your voice and then listen to it.
Hyunwoo: Compare it to the native speakers 경은씨의 발음에 비교해 보시고 제 발음에 비교해 보세요.
Gyeongeun: 네. And adjust your pronunciation.
Hyunwoo: And this will help you improve your pronunciation fast.
Gyeongeun: 네. 현우씨, 한국어 배우려면 어디 가야 돼요?
Hyunwoo: 한국어 배우려면? Look for 경은씨 and me.
Gyeongeun: 네.
Hyunwoo: Okay this is going to be it for today and we will see you at KoreanClass101.com
Gyeongeun: 네, 안녕히 계세요.
Hyunwoo: 안녕히 계세요.
