Lesson 8: corrections from a helpful bean!
Herro! As we all know I am a drop-dead beginner in Korean. But a lovely person has messaged me, informing that there were some mistakes my mess of a post in Lesson 8 (which I have fixed)
Mostly in reference to the “Dialogue about Twin Jin and JK” at the end of the post.
And i’ll share them here! they might be good tips that will help some of you out as well
^see disappointed namjoon: like why are you messing up my language dude?
1. 그거 cannot be used for people either it’s like calling them “this” - u can say 그 사람 or 그 남자 etc.
2. you have to decide whether you are speaking formal or informal Korean (진짜요 is the correct word here)
so please don’t respond to someone with 짅짜, even if like me you’ve heard it on k-media and want to whip it out. It’s informal language. And paired with the language in the lesson is like mixing informal with formal.
So tack on a “요” at the end to make it formal “짅짜요" and we all g.
3. 맞아요 sounds completely unnatural in your example. No need to use it.
^take note :)
