Grammar notes (4)
-뿐이다 = nothing but / only
모순뿐인 세상
뿐 compresses the entire world into one property: contradiction, nothing else.
Pattern: [noun] + 뿐이다
Example: 핑계뿐이다 (nothing but excuses)
-보다 = than (comparison)
너의 현실보다 멋져
보다 sets reality as the benchmark — and the dream outruns it. A flex by grammar.
Pattern: [noun] + 보다 + [adj]
Example: 어제보다 나은 (better than yesterday)
-가 아닌 = that is not ~
무질서가 아닌 새 시대의 논리
아닌 denies the old label first, then the sentence installs the new one.
Pattern: [noun] + 가 아닌 + [noun]
Example: 운명이 아닌 선택 (a choice, not fate)
이대로 = just as it is
날 내버려 둬 이대로
이대로 freezes the present: even the option of change is off the table.
Pattern: idaero + [verb]
Example: 이대로 멈추다 (stop as it is)
