Many Korean learners begin their studies by learning very basic grammar such as 도, 고, 서, 요, etc. One of the most commonly learned grammar rules at this stage is 부터 and 까지. In most situations, 까지 is used in this way to mean ‘to’ or ‘until’, however in this scene, it is an alternative usage of 까지. This form is the auxiliary form.

Conjugating 이다 is def tricky! If a noun has a 받침, meaning it ends in a consonant, you would conjugate it as 이에요 (받침 means “ending consonant”!). If it ends in a vowel instead, however, you would conjugate it as 예요. Let’s see some examples!

제 이름은 미셸이에요. = My name is Michele.

미셸 ends in a consonant -- ㄹ -- so I would attach 이에요 to it.

이건 제 강아지예요. = This is my puppy.

The word for puppy (강아지) ends in a vowel and thus does NOT have a 받침, so I would attach 예요 to it.

- That's Ridiculous

- I Can't Believe It

- No Way!

- That's Nonsense; Impossible

말 = “words,”

도 = “even,”

안 돼 = “must not be.”

Meaning:

The idiom "말이 되다" literally means "to become/form a word/words", so it means "to make sense".

And it is also used when saying "to be reasonable/logical" or "to be possible/true". Therefore, "말이 안 된다" or "말이 되지 않다" means "not to make sense" or "to be not possible/true".

Example Sentences Below👇

넌 항상 말도 안 되는 말을 해

You talk nonsense all the time.

말도 안 되는 소리지. 그렇게는 안 돼.

That's out of question. You can't have it so.

그런 말도 안 되는 소리 하지 마.

Stop talking that nonsense!

물론 사실이 아니지, 무슨 말도 안 되는 생각이람

Of course it’s not true, what an absurd idea.

그 목격자는 분명히 말도 안 되는 거짓말을 하고 있었다.

The witness was clearly lying through his teeth.

정말 솔직히 말해서, 그 친구 의견은 말도 안 된다.

Quite frankly, his opinion is ridiculous.

This has been on my mind for a while and as an ally of the LGBT community, I would like to express my gratitude. There is great bravery and courage in being who you are - with anyone really - but I cannot express enough how wonderful and amazing YOU are.

I am proud of you and I support you.
