친구들과 여행 (고 or 을 떠나고) 싶어요. |
Chingudeulgwa yeohaen (go/ eul tteonago) sipeoyo. |
친구들과 여행 (고 or 을 떠나고) 싶어요. |
을 떠나고 (eul tteonago) |
을 떠나고 |
친구들과 여행을 떠나고 싶어요. (Chingudeulgwa yeohaengeul tteonago sipeoyo.) |
I want to go on a trip with friends. |
을 떠나고 is used here because -고 싶어요 can’t be attached directly to a noun like 여행 (“trip”). Instead, we need a verb to express what we want to do. |
In this sentence, the verb is 떠나다 (“to leave” or “to go on a trip”), and 여행 becomes the object of that verb. |
So we add 을 to mark 여행 as the object: 여행을. |
Then we attach 떠나고 싶어요 to show desire. |
