There are some irregular verbs that end in \u3137<\/strong>. When that happens, the \u3137<\/strong> changes to a \u3139<\/strong>. For example, the verb \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> will be \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> in the standard polite form. Basically the \ub2e4<\/strong> is dropped. Then you’re left with the stem \ub4e3<\/strong>. Then the \u3137<\/strong> on the bottom is dropped. Lastly the \u3137<\/strong> changes to a \u3139<\/strong> and \uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> is added. \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> is an interesting verb. \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> can mean “to hear” or “to listen”. For example, this\u00a0question \uc74c\uc545\uc744 \uc790\uc8fc \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong>? means “Do you often listen to music?” (\uc74c\uc545<\/strong> = music. \uc744<\/strong> = object marking particle. \uc790\uc8fc<\/strong> = often. \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> = listen).<\/p>\n

However, \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> can also be used in another context. Let’s look at the sentence \ub2e4\uc12f \uacfc\ubaa9\uc744 \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong>. (\ub2e4\uc12f<\/strong> = five. \uacfc\ubaa9<\/strong> = course. \uc744<\/strong> = object marking particle. \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> = take.) Here the sentence means “[I] take five courses\/subjects.” In this sentence \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> is used in the sense of taking a class\/course. The way you can remember this is to change the meaning of this sentence as “[I] listen\/hear five courses.” It’s a little awkward with this sentence, but it works better in this sentence,\u00a0\uc628\ub77c\uc778\u00a0\uc218\uc5c5 \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> where you can say “[I] listen to an online course”. Still however, it works better when you say “[I] take an online course\/class”<\/p>\n

(\uc628\ub77c\uc778<\/strong> = online. \uc218\uc5c5<\/strong> = class\/course. \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> = take). When the verb \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> is used in the sense of “take” you can only use it in the sense of taking a class, a lecture or a course. You can’t use \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> when you want to say something like “I take my medicine everyday” because \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> can’t be used as “take” unless it has to do with taking a lesson, course, etc. Another verb that has the \u3137<\/strong> ending as \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong> is \uac77\ub2e4<\/strong>. \uac77\ub2e4<\/strong> means “to walk”. The sentence \uc720\ub9ac\ub294 \ud559\uad50\uae4c\uc9c0 \uac78\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> means “Yuri walks until she\u00a0gets to\u00a0school”. (\uc720\ub9ac<\/strong> = Yuri. \ud559\uad50<\/strong> = school. \uae4c\uc9c0<\/strong> = until\/to. \uac78\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> = walk).<\/p>\n

There’s another common verb that ends in \u3137 that follows this rule. \uc9c8\ubb38\uc744 \uc790\uc8fc \ubb3c\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong>. The verb here is \ubb3b\ub2e4<\/strong> which means “to ask”. (\uc9c8\ubb38<\/strong> = question. \uc790\uc8fc<\/strong> = often. \ubb3c\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> = ask). In English the sentence means “[I] often ask questions”. Be careful with \ubb3b\ub2e4<\/strong>. \ubb3b\ub2e4<\/strong> can also mean “to bury” like in this sentence, \uc18c\ub77c\ub294 \uc2dc\uccb4\ub97c<\/strong> \ubb3b\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong> which can mean “Sora burys the corpse”. (\uc18c\ub77c<\/strong> = Sora. \ub294<\/strong> = topic marking particle. \uc2dc\uccb4<\/strong> = corpse. \ub97c<\/strong> = object marking particle. \ubb3b\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong>. So when the verb \ubb3b\ub2e4<\/strong> means “to ask” you’ll have to conjugate it like \ub4e3\ub2e4<\/strong>, but when it means “to bury” it’ll be conjugated as \ubb3b\uc5b4\uc694<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

There are some irregular verbs that end in \u3137. When that happens, the \u3137 changes to a \u3139. For example, the verb \ub4e3\ub2e4 will be \ub4e4\uc5b4\uc694 in the standard polite form. Basically the \ub2e4 is dropped. Then you’re left with the stem \ub4e3. Then the \u3137 on the bottom is dropped. Lastly the \u3137 changes…<\/p>\n
