To ask for permission use a verb + \ub3c4<\/strong> +\u00a0\ub418\ub2e4 <\/strong>with a rising intonation\u00a0:<\/p>\n

\uc5ec\uae30 \uc549\uc544\ub3c4 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong>? = Can I sit here? or Am I allowed to sit here?<\/p>\n

(\uc5ec\uae30<\/strong> = here. \uc549\uc544<\/strong> = sit. \ub3c4 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> = can I\/am I allowed.)<\/p>\n

The verb used here was \uc549\ub2e4<\/strong> or “to sit”. Since \uc549\ub2e4<\/strong> uses an \uc544<\/strong> vowel, the construction will use \uc549\uc544<\/strong> instead of \uc549\uc5b4<\/strong>. Also, \ub418\ub2e4<\/strong> will become \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> when conjugated.<\/p>\n

The phrase above was a polite way to ask for permission. You can also ask for permission in an informal way, though I’d be careful to use this with certain people :<\/p>\n

\uc774\uac70 \uba39\uc5b4\ub3c4 \ub3fc<\/strong>? = Can I eat this?<\/p>\n

(\uc774\uac70<\/strong> = this. \uba39\uc5b4<\/strong> = eat. \ub3c4 \ub3fc<\/strong> = can I)<\/p>\n

The verb used here was \uba39\ub2e4<\/strong>, which has a \uc5b4<\/strong> vowel. Therefore \uba39\ub2e4<\/strong> will be conjugated as \uba39\uc5b4<\/strong> rather than \uba39\uc544<\/strong>. By now, you probably have some intuitive sense that it’s \uba39\uc5b4<\/strong> and not \uba39\uc544<\/strong>, just by the way it sounds. To ask in an informal way, just drop the \ub2e4<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

You can also prohibit people from doing something by using a verb + (\uc73c<\/strong>)\uba74 \uc548\ub418\ub2e4<\/strong><\/p>\n

Take a look at these two sentences :<\/p>\n

(1) \uac70\uae30\u00a0\uc9d1\uc744\u00a0\uc9c0\uc73c\uba74 \uc548 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong>\u00a0= You’re not allowed to build a house there<\/p>\n

(\uac70\uae30<\/strong> = there. \uc9d1 <\/strong>= house. \uc744<\/strong>\u00a0= obj. particle. \uc9c0<\/strong> = build. \uc73c\uba74 \uc548 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> = not allowed)<\/p>\n

(2) \uc5ec\uae30 \ucc28\ub97c \uc138\uc6b0\uba74 \uc548\ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> = You(‘re) can’t\/not allowed to park your car here<\/p>\n

(\uc5ec\uae30<\/strong> = here. \ucc28<\/strong> = car. \ub97c<\/strong> = obj. particle. \uc138\uc6b0<\/strong> = park. \uba74 \uc548\ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> = not allowed\/can’t)<\/p>\n

The verb used in the first sentence\u00a0was \uc9d3\ub2e4<\/strong> (to build)\u00a0and the verb used in the second sentence was \uc138\uc6b0\ub2e4<\/strong> (to park). Since the verb in the first sentence ended in a consonant (when the \ub2e4<\/strong> of the infinitive\u00a0was dropped), \uc73c\uba74 \uc548 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong>\u00a0was used. However the verb in the second sentence ended in a vowel, which means that just \uba74 \uc548 \ub3fc\uc694<\/strong> was needed. When the verb ends in a consonant, add \uc73c<\/strong>. When it ends in a vowel, \uc73c<\/strong> is not needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
