Grammar notes (4)

-자 = let's

아름다운 청춘의 한 장 함께 써내려 가자

Youth rendered as a page: life is a book, today is co-authored.

Pattern: [stem] + ジャ

Example: 출발하자 (let's leave now)

-ㄹ 수 있게 = so that (we) can

지금 이 순간이 다시 넘겨볼 수 있는 한 페이지가 될 수 있게

-게 leaves the outcome to the future reader — a prayer for a good page.

Pattern: [stem] + ル ス イッケ

Example: 다시 볼 수 있게 남겨 (keep it so we can see again)

-아/어줘서 고맙다 = thanks for doing (for me)

오늘을 위해 그저 견뎌줘서 고마워

견디다 is the humblest verb: not 'for shining' but 'for just holding on.'

Pattern: [stem] + ア/オチュゴ コマプタ

Example: 기다려줘서 고마워 (thanks for waiting)

-아/어 두다 = leave (as is)

다른 건 다 제쳐 두고 now come with me

제쳐 두고 defers the world: for this moment, everything else can wait.

Pattern: [noun] + チョチョ トゥゴ

Example: 질문은 제쳐두고 (set the question aside)
