~잖아요

This grammar point is used when both the speaker and listener(s) know a mutual fact.

It can be hard to translate ~잖아(요) directly into English as it often has an implied meaning. Though you can roughly translate it to ‘as you know’, ‘you know’, ‘don’t forget that’, and ‘I told you that’.

It is directly attached to verbs and adjectives. It can also be attached to nouns using 이다.

The past tense is not attached to 잖아(요) rather it is attached to the verb/adjective e.g 말했잖아요.

있잖아요 is a standalone statement that is often used when someone is trying to think of something and is in the process of trying to figure out what to say.

The text slang version of 잖아 is 자나.

가: 와 제니의 중국어 실력이 대단해요.

나: 제니의 어머니가 중국 사람이잖아요.

가: 왜 하니한테 전화 걸지 않아?

나: 미국으로 이민갔잖아.

가: 이 원피스를 입는 게 어때?

나: 그것 파란 색인데. 나 파란 색을 싫어하잖아.

가: 질이 엄청 좋아.

나: 이 브랜드 좋다고 말했잖아요.

가: 같이 축구공을 치는 게 어때요?

나: 오늘 날씨가 너무 춥잖아요.

“The worst part of writing fiction is the fear of wasting your life behind a keyboard. The idea that, dying, you’ll realize you only lived on paper.”

— Chuck Palahniuk

Heck no

“Listen to me. All of writing is a huge lake. There are great rivers that feed the lake, like Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky. And there are mere trickles, like Jean Rhys. All that matters is feeding the lake. I don’t matter. The lake matters. You must keep feeding the lake.”

— Jean Rhys, from an interview in The Paris Review (via exhaled-spirals)

The adjective’s place

Usually, the adjective comes right after the noun (Le manteau rouge)

Short and common adjectives are often placed before the noun - beau/belle (beautiful), bon-ne (good), bref/brève (brief), grand-e (tall/big), gros-se (fat), faux/fausse (fake), haut-e (high), jeune (young), joli-e (pretty), mauvais-e (bad), meilleur-e (best), nouveau/nouvelle (new), petit-e (short), vieux/vieil/vieille (old) - (La jeune fille)

If there are at least two coordinated adjectives, they come after the noun and are connected by a coordinating conjunction (Elle est drôle et belle)

If not, they go on each side of the noun (Une belle porte noire)

Some adjectives can go both before or after depending on their meaning:

Ancien-ne: former (Une ancienne boutique) VS old (Un bâtiment ancien)

Brave: respectable (Quel brave homme) VS courageous (Un chien brave)

Certain-e: particular (Un certain âge) VS sure (C’est un fait certain)

Cher/chère: dear (Ma chère Sophie) VS expensive (Une voiture chère)

Curieux/curieuse: odd (Une curieuse manie) VS interested (Un chat curieux)

Dernier/dernière: last of all (Une dernière fois) VS most recent (Lundi dernier)

Drôle: strange (Une drôle d’histoire) VS funny (Une histoire drôle)

Grand: great (Un grand homme) VS tall (Un homme grand) - only works with Homme

Pauvre: pitiful (Un pauvre garçon) VS moneyless (Une famille pauvre)

Prochain-e: next (La prochaine fois) VS coming (La semaine prochaine)

Propre: own (Mes propres mains) VS clean (Des mains propres)

Pur-e: simple (Une simple demande) VS pure (Une demande simple)

Sacré-e: awesome (Une sacrée fille) VS holy (Une parole sacrée)

Sale: disgusting (Une sale histoire) VS dirty (Une cuisine sale)

Seul-e: only (Une seule femme), VS alone (Une femme seule)

Simple: modest (Une simple demeure) VS simple (Une questions simple)

Vrai-e: real (Une vraie histoire) VS true (Une histoire vraie)

안녕 선생님!! I will give examples to explain what I want to ask. So I see, for example, "I like you" can be written as 나는 네가 좋아해. But I also it being written as 난 네가 좋아해. So is 난 the short form of 나는? Also does it apply for the other pronouns and if it was, what are the short form of these pronouns? Thank you so much and have a nice day ^.^

안녕! You called me 선생님 you’re too kind ^^

And yes! You’re correct about 난 just being a shortened form of 나는! Some other contractions for personal pronouns are as follows:

나를 -> 날 = informal “me”

너를 -> 널 = informal “you” with object particle

너는 -> 넌 = informal “you” with topic particle

저는 -> 전 = formal “I” with topic particle (you might not hear this that often but it’s a thing)

Here are some other pronouns that can be shortened:

“This”

이것은 -> 이건

이것이 -> 이게

이것을 -> 이걸

“That”

그것은 -> 그건

그것이 -> 그게

그것을 -> 그걸

“That” (for things pretty far away from you)

저것은 -> 저건

저것이 -> 저게

저것을 -> 저걸

“Here”

여기는 -> 여긴

여기를 -> 여길

“There”

거기는 -> 거긴

거기를 -> 거길

“There” (for places pretty far away from you, as if to say “over there”)

저기는 -> 저긴

저기를 -> 저길

There are other contractions too, like 무엇을 (what) can become 뭘 and 어디를 (where) can become 어딜. Hope this is helpful! 화이팅!

The reality about spoken french

We don’t use the negation ne. We say Je sais pas (I don’t know) or On a pas à le faire (we don’t have to do it),

Speaking of which, we prefer using on rather than the pompous nous : On est arrivé-es (we’ve arrived), On y va? (shall we go)

Speaking of which, our questions are often affirmative sentences ending with a question mark (i.e. : a high-pitched tone) : Tu viens? (are you coming), T’en veux un-e? (do you want one).

Speaking of which, we chew words. When followed by words starting with a consonant, personal pronouns can lose their final letter : J’te l’dis! rather than Je te le dis (I’m telling you).

Speaking of which, we’re lazy : Je can be Che (chais pas), Il can be Y (r’garde, y’a un chat!) and grunt : many euh (uh), ah, bah (hum), ben (well), hein (tf?) and rhooo/rhaaa (ffs). We often start sentences with but : Mais tu saoules! (you’re annoying) to express displeasure.

Speaking of which, on top of dropping négations, we drop pronouns : You’re being a pain in my ass should be Tu me fais chier but can be Tu fais chier - maybe to make it universal or dramatic.

Speaking of which, we thrive on sarcasm and irony. To someone who’s babbling, we’ll answer It makes my leg look good.

Speaking of which, we repeat (personal) pronouns at the beginning or end of sentences. We’re likely to ask Qu’est-ce qu’il en dit, lui? and answer Moi, je veux bien (tonic pronouns, careful!).

Speaking of which, we like to use the conditional mode to indicate a wish or hypothesis : lots of Si j’avais su, j’aurais dit oui (had i known, i’d have said yes), J’aimerais bien pouvoir- (I wish I could-), etc.

Speaking of which, we add useless words : Bien (j’irais bien), Petit (un petit peu), Très (très vrai), Trop (je ne sais pas trop), ça (C’est quoi, ça?)…

Speaking of which, let’s stop before you all get disgusted and unfollow me. Remember this is spoken, private french and doesn’t apply to formal situations!
