What is the difference between -게 하다 and -게 되다?

Great question! First, we need to understand that 하다 is active whereas 되다 is passive! Your next question might be, “but omg, SK101, I’m not good at English grammar, too; what the hell is passive and active?”

Another great question!

The active voice is when the speaker/subject performs the action or is described directly–they did it, caused it, performed it; you’re gonna see people commonly use these ways to explain the active voice. In English, the active voice can look something like this:

I studied Korean; (저는) 한국어를 공부했어요

As you can see, I (the subject) am the one that studied Korean of my own volition. I caused the “Korean studying.”

The passive voice is when the speaker/subject does not perform/cause/do the action. Instead, the subject is affected by the action/performance. I understand this may be difficult to understand, so I’ll spend more time on this.

When can you use the passive voice?

When we have more interest in the object that experiences the action

When we don’t know (or don’t want to express) who performed the action (this is an academic loophole when we didn't do the proper research to support a claim)

When we want to emphasize the action!

The passive voice is not grammatically incorrect (take it from a linguist and someone who minored in creative writing). You will hear people say that the passive voice is not good or is ungrammatical (some bs like that). Even in Korean, the passive voice is entirely natural and used in everyday contexts.

The passive voice in Korean may look like this:

한국어가 (저에게) 공부됐어요; Korean was studied (by me)

The prepositional phrase “by me; 저에게” shows that we know who studied Korean. This may still be confusing, so let me give you another example:

부엌을 청소했어요; I cleaned the kitchen.

부엌이 청소됐어요; The kitchen has been cleaned.

Let’s add more context to the sentence to understand the situation better.

집에 도착했을 때 부엌을 청소했어요; When I got home, I cleaned the kitchen (meaning, I saw the dirty kitchen and cleaned it)

집에 도착했을 때 부엌이 청소됐어요; When I got home, the kitchen was cleaned (meaning, someone (unknown or otherwise) cleaned the kitchen when I was out)

*gasp!* Yes, by now, you've noticed that 이/가 goes with passive!

Now, onto your question: what's the difference between -게 하다 and -게 되다?

-게 하다: causative

The causative aspect shows that A causes B to happen. Pretend you have a younger sibling–here are some examples:

동생은 저를 늦게 했어요; My sibling made me late

저는 동생이 문제를 이해하게 했어요; I made them understand the problem

저를 귀찮게 했어요; You (the sibling) bothered me!

(저는) 동생을 화장품으로 예쁘게 했어요; I made my sibling pretty with makeup

A (동생/저) causes B to happen. B does not mean the recipient (저/동생) of the action – B represents the action.

-게 되다; to become (passive)

This grammar point shows that B changes A! Let’s use the examples from above.

동생이 화장품으로 예쁘게 됐어요; my sibling became pretty with makeup

동생 때문에 제가 귀찮게 되었어요; my sibling has been bothering me

문제가 동생에게 이해하게 되었어요; my sibling came to understand the problem [more literally; the problem was understood by my sibling]

동생 때문에 제가 늦게 되었어요; I became late because of my sibling

Now, I'm sure you've noticed that there are two spellings of a conjugated '되다'. The only difference between '되었어요' and '됐어요' is that '됐어요' is a contraction of '되었어요'. You may have other Korean learners attempt to tell you that you write one [되었어요] and speak the other [됐어요]. This isn't not true; it's just not a rule written in stone. You are very much able to write the contracted '됐어요' instead of the regular '되었어요'. In fact, native Korean speakers do this all the time. It would be like saying we shouldn't write any English contractions because it's not grammatically correct--it's just wrong. The rules of '되다' are more complex than just written and spoken, but that's a blog for another day.

I hope this helped answer your question! If you're still confused, don't hesitate to send me another ask or pm me! I'm always open to clearing up any confusion or directing you to a source that may help!

Happy Learning :)

Intermediate / Lesson 37: -ㄹ/을 뻔하다

안녕하세요 여러분! Hey everyone! Today’s quick lesson is about a structure used to express that you almost did something or that something almost happened. Let’s start!

-ㄹ/을 뻔하다 = I almost...

-ㄹ/을 뻔하다 is attached to verbs to say that something almost happened or that you almost did something. Ultimately, however, the action did not end up happening. Use this formula:

[verb stem] + ㄹ/을 뻔하다

Attach -ㄹ to stems ending in a vowel

Attach -을 to stems ending in a consonant

With this usage, 뻔하다 is always conjugated into the past tense

Examples

지하철에 지갑을 잃어버릴 뻔했어요. = I almost lost my wallet on the subway.

바닥이 미끄러워서 떨어질 뻔했어요. = The floor was slippery so I almost fell.

그 가방을 살 뻔했는데 너무 비싸서 안 샀어요. = I almost bought that bag, but it’s too expensive, so I didn’t.

수미 씨는 음주 운전하면서 사고날 뻔했어요. = Sumi almost got into a car accident while she was driving drunk.

늦잠을 ��서 버스를 놓칠 뻔했어요. = I almost missed the bus because I overslept.

That’s about it for this short lesson -- I hope it was helpful! Feel free to ask any questions you have :) See you in the next lesson! 다음에 또 봐요!

mini grammar lesson - 이/가

이/가 marks the subject of an upcoming predicate of the subject.

It means "is" as a subject particle in a sentence.

이: it's used after a consonant. -> 하늘이 맑아요 - the sky is clear.

가: it's used after a vowel. -> 제가 할게요 - I will do that.

안녕헤세여~ 전 내년에 한국에 대학 다닐 계획 있는 유학생인데 여쭈어 보고싶은 게 좀 있는 거예요~ 국어국문학과에 도전해볼까 했는데 공부잘되니봐 걱정이 되는데요,,, 프랑스어학과니까 좀 나누고 싶은 생각이 있나요? (전 STEM이 별로인 문학공부밖에 선택 없는데 한국인들과 전쟁이라 좀,,)

암튼 좋은 하루 되세요~ 프랑스어도 화이팅하세요^^

국어국문학과에서 배우는 한국 문학은 한국 학생들도 어려워 해요. 그리고 문학수업 말고도 문법 수업이 되게 많은데..그것도 한국인들도 어려워해요. 한국 문학과 한국어 문법을 진짜 깊게 알지 못하는 이상 수업에 따라가기 어려울 것 같아요.

저는 불어불문학과에 프랑스어를 하나도 모르는 상태로, 그냥 입시 점수 맞춰서 들어갔어요. 한국에 있는 어문학과들은 거의 다 기본부터 새로 알려주기 때문에 아무것도 몰라도 충분히 수업 따라갈 수 있어요.

그리고 다른 학생들 중에도 프랑스어를 엄청 잘하는 사람이 막 많지 않아요.. 그냥 전반적으로 초, 중급 수준이라 그냥 공부 열심히 하면 A받을 수 있더라고요. 그리고 프랑스어 말고도 프랑스 문화, 문학에 대한 수업도 되게 많아서 크게 부담이 없어요.

저는 3년동안 프랑스어학과 굉장히 만족하면서 무난하게 다녔어요!! 대신 학년 올라갈수록 수준이 급격히 올라가서... 문법 공부나 스피킹 같은 건 방학 때 따로 더 노력해야 해요.

도움이 되었길 바라요😀

번역하는 한국어 이야기 (연습) #2

📄제가 영어 번역:

House Cleaning

Today is Saturday. In the morning, my father went to work and my mother went out for the day. I didn't have any lectures or plans with my friends, so I just decided to stay home.

I planned to do some house cleaning. First, I scrubbed the floors with a rag and cleaned the furniture in the room, the television and the stereo. I also dusted the windows and ceilings.

After cleaning, the house's atmosphere was very different. The room was clean and a sparkly shine came from the kitchen, bathroom, and windows.

Since the inside of the house was clean, I felt super refreshed. After house cleaning, I decided to do the overdue laundry. I like using the washing machine more rather than doing laundry by hand. Of course, if you do it by hand it is more tiring. However, rinsing the laundry and disposing of the water feels very satisfying. This kind of feeling is why I still do the laundry by hand.

📝제가 배운것:

오케이 이거..ㅜㅜ 이거 조금 더 어려웠어요. 복잡하지 않은데 그냥 모른 단어가 많았어요. 아 그리고 정말 길었죠? 많을수록 좋겠다 !ㅎㅎㅎ 그럼, 지금은 그게 다예요. 이번에 더 잛게 메모예요..암튼 !

다음에 봐요~!

If you're learning Korean, you may come across words that end in either 나다 (nada) or 내다 (naeda), such as 끝나다 and 끝내다, 고장나다 and 고장내다. Both 나다 and 내다 can be used as standalone verbs or combined with other words to create compound verbs. These verbs can have complex meanings and depend heavily on the context in which they are used. To clarify the differences between the two, let's break it down: (1) "나다" describes something that happens on its own or spontaneously, without external influence. It can be translated as "to come up," "to arise," or "to occur". For example" 텔레비전이 고장났어요. (The television broke down) In this case, 고장나다 is used because the television broke down on its own, without any external force causing it. Another example: 영화가 끝나서 집에 가야 돼요. (The movie is finished, so I have to go home.) Here, 끝나다 is used because the end of the movie is a natural occurrence that happens on its own. Note that 나다 is often used with the particle 이/가 to indicate the subject of the sentence, as in: 소리가 나다: to sound (sound coming up on its own) 소방차의 경적 소리가 나서 모든 차들이 길을 비켜갔어요. (The siren of the fire truck went off, and all the cars moved out of the way) 화가 나다: to get angry (the feeling of anger arising within the speaker) 난 지금 엄청 화가 났어. 건드리지 마. (I’m really angry right now. Don’t touch me.) (2) "내다" describes something that happens as a result of external influence or intervention. It can be translated as “to make something come up” or “to cause something to arise." For example: 누군가 텔레비전을 고장냈어요. (Someone broke the television.) In this case, 고장내다 is used because the television breaking down was caused by an external force. Another example: 선생님이 수업을 끝내냈어요. (The teacher finished the class.) Here, 끝내다 is used because the end of the class was caused by the teacher actively ending it. Note that 내다 is often used with the particle 을/를 to indicate the object of the sentence, as in: 소리를 내다: to make a sound (actively making a sound) 그들은 악기를 연주하여 아름다운 소리를 냈어요 (They played their instruments and made beautiful sounds.) 화를 내다: to get angry (the anger is showed outside verbally or by actions) 화가 나도 다른 사람에게 화를 내면 안 돼. (Even if you’re angry, you shouldn’t take it out on other people.) It's important to note that not all Korean verbs that end with either “나다” or “내다” have an equivalent form ending in the other. In summary, “나다” is used when something happens spontaneously or independently, while “내다” is used when something happens as a result of external influence or intervention. #KoreanGrammar #LearnKorean #KoreanVocabulary

Grammar You Can Use Instead of -지만 and -는데

-기는 하지만, -기는 -지만

Usage: A/V + 기는 하지만 is used by speakers to express different views on something.

Even though it’s translated as “but”, there is a bit more to it than just that. In the first part of the sentence the speaker recognizes or acknowledges something, but in the second sentence expresses a different opinion.

A/V Present Tense - 기는 하지만

A/V Past Tense - 기는 했지만

A/V Future Tense - 기는 하겠지만

Noun Present Tense - (이)기는 하지만

Often used in its contracted form in conversation 기는 하지만 > 긴 하지만. The other form of this grammar -기는 -지만 uses the same adjective/verb twice in a row and can add more emphasis.

Examples:

그 신발이 좋기는 좋지만 너무 비싸서 못 사요.
