Different Sentence Structures For Making Basic Sentences

*side note: these sentences aren't conjugated. this is the plain, unconjugated form and It's not typically used when speaking in Korean. I used it in this part of the post, so that the focus can be on the sentence structure and not the conjugations. Just incase there are learners who are still learning or struggling with conjugations.

1.) Subject + Noun

> 저는 학생이다 - I am a student

학생 = student

이다 = to be

2.) Subject + Verb

> 저는 공부하다 - I study/ I am studying

공부하다 = to study

3.) Subject + Adjective

> 여자는 예쁘다 - The woman Is pretty

여자 = woman

예쁘다 = to be pretty

4.) Subject + Object + Verb

> 저는 한국어를 공부하다 - I study Korean

한국어 = korean (language)

You can make full sentences without the subject but only when It's obvious to the other person or people your talking to

(저는) 공부하다

(저는) 학생이다
