Grammar notes (13)

Doing something for someone -아/어 주다

벨벨 이젠 나를 배려 해 줘

해 줘 = 하다 (do) + -아 주다. 주다 literally 'give', after a verb it means doing for someone's benefit. 배려 해 줘 = please be considerate of me.

Pattern: [verb] + -아/어 주다 = do… for someone (해 줘 is the contracted form)

Example: 도와줘 (help me) / 기다려 줘 (wait for me)

Emphasis / concession -긴

배터리 낭비하긴 싫어

낭비하긴 = 낭비하다 (waste) + -긴 (contraction of -기는). State a fact then reverse it: 'waste, (I) don't want to'. Common for 'it's not that…, it's just…'.

Pattern: [verb] + -긴 + negation = it's not that… (it's just…)

Example: 좋긴 좋아 (I do like it) / 맛있긴 한데 (it's tasty, but…)

Feels like about to… -(으)ㄹ 것만 같다

전화가 펑 터질 것만 같아

터질 것만 같아 = 터지다 (burst) + -(으)ㄹ 것 + 만 + 같다. 만 stresses 'only feels like…' — it's about to happen. The phone rings so much it feels like exploding.

Pattern: [verb] + -(으)ㄹ 것만 같다 = feels like it's about to…

Example: 울 것만 같아 (about to cry) / 죽을 것만 같아 (dead tired)

Hearsay -ㄴ대 / because 때문에

숨도 못 쉰대 나 때문에

쉰대 = 쉬다 (breathe) + -ㄴ대 (hearsay). Koreans love -대/-래 for reporting what someone said. 때문에 = because of.

Pattern: [verb] + -ㄴ대/-대 = they say…; [noun] + 때문에 = because of…

Example: 비 온대 (they say it'll rain) / 너 때문이야 (it's because of you)

Adjective hearsay -대 / 걔

걔 말은 나 너무 예쁘대

예쁘대 = 예쁘다 (pretty) + -대 (hearsay for adjectives). 걔 = contraction of 그 아이 (that guy). 말은 = 말 + 은 topic: 'according to him'.

Pattern: [adjective] + -대 = they say…; 걔 = that person (colloquial)

Example: 재밌대 (they say it's fun) / 걔가 왔대 (they say he came)

Because (I) was busy doing… -느라(고)

친구를 만나느라 미안해

만나느라 = 만나다 (meet) + -느라(고). 'Because I was busy doing X, (I couldn't/delayed Y)' — the classic excuse pattern.

Pattern: [verb] + -느라(고) + result = because (I) was busy -ing…

Example: 숙제하느라 늦었어 (late because of homework) / 게임하느라 못 갔어 (couldn't go because of gaming)

Prohibition -지 마(세요) / negation -지 않다

조르지 마 얼마 가지 않아

조르지 마 = 조르다 (nag) + -지 말다 imperative 'don't'. 가지 않아 = 가다 (take time) + -지 않다 negation. 얼마 = how much.

Pattern: [verb] + -지 마 = don't…; [verb] + -지 않다 = not…

Example: 가지 마 (don't go) / 걱정하지 마 (don't worry)

Must not… -(으)면 안 되다

여자가 쉽게 맘을 주면 안돼

주면 안돼 = 주다 (give) + -(으)면 안 되다. 'If you do, it won't do' = must not. 맘 is casual 마음 (heart).

Pattern: [verb] + -(으)면 안 되다 = must not…

Example: 늦으면 안 돼 (mustn't be late) / 그렇게 하면 안 돼 (mustn't do that)

Only then 그래야 / conjecture -(으)ㄹ걸

그래야 니가 날 더 좋아하게 될걸

그래야 = contraction of 그렇게 해야 (must do so). 좋아하게 될걸 = 좋아하다 + -게 되다 (become) + -ㄹ걸 (guess). 날 = 나를, 니가 = colloquial 네가.

Pattern: 그래야 + [verb] + -(으)ㄹ걸 = only then will…

Example: 그래야 성공할걸 (only then you'll succeed) / 노력해야 될걸 (you'll need to work hard)

Intention -(으)ㄹ래 / adverbial -게

태연하게 연기할래 아무렇지 않게

연기할래 = 연기하다 (act) + -(으)ㄹ래 (first-person intention 'I'll…'). 아무렇지 않게 = 'as if nothing' + -게 adverbializer.

Pattern: [verb] + -(으)ㄹ래 = I'll…; [adjective] + -게 = -ly (adverbial)

Example: 잘래 (I'm going to sleep) / 조용히 해 (do it quietly)

Present modifier -는 / 모르게

내가 널 좋아하는 맘 모르게

좋아하는 맘 = 좋아하다 + -는 (present modifier) + 맘 (heart): 'the heart that likes you'. 모르게 = 모르다 + -게 'without (you) knowing'. 널 = 너를.

Pattern: [verb] + -는 + [noun] = the (noun) that…; 모르게 = without (the other) knowing

Example: 좋아하는 사람 (someone I like) / 내가 하는 말 (what I say)

Like… -처럼 / just a little 조금만

지금처럼 조금만 더 다가와

지금처럼 = 지금 (now) + 처럼 (like). 조금만 = 조금 + 만 'just a little'. 다가와 = 다가오다 (approach) + -아 imperative.

Pattern: [noun] + 처럼 = like…; 조금만 + [verb] = just a little…

Example: 너처럼 (like you) / 조금만 기다려 (wait just a bit)

Reason -니까 / connective -지만

나도 니가 좋아 걱정되지만 여자니까

여자니까 = 여자 + 니까 (reason) 'because I'm a girl'. 걱정되지만 = 걱정되다 + -지만 (but). 나도 = 나 + 도 'me too'.

Pattern: [noun] + 니까 = because…; [verb/adj] + -지만 = although…

Example: 비가 오니까 우산 챙겨 (take an umbrella, it's raining) / 바쁘지만 갈게 (busy, but I'll go)
