Do you know how to talk about something you have to do in Korean?
Welcome to Three Step Korean Practice by KoreanClass101.com. In this lesson, you will practice how to talk about something you have to do.
Let’s look at the main dialogue.
Two people are having a conversation.
따뜻한 아메리카노 한 잔 주세요. 얼마나 걸려요?
Ttatteuthan americano han jan juseyo. Eolmana geollyeoyo?
One hot Americano, please. How long will it take?
네, 알겠습니다. 15분 정도 기다리셔야 해요.
Ne, algetseumnida. Sibobun jeongdo gidarisyeoya haeyo.
Alright. You'll have to wait about 15 minutes.
Here, because the verb stem 기다리시 (gidarisi) ends in the vowel ㅣ (i), we use the ending -어야. When combined with the honorific marker 시, this becomes 셔야.
Let’s practice with this grammar more in this lesson.
