Grammar. This, that, it. [-이/-저/-그]
2023년 5월 22일
안녕하세요!
Following this previous lesson, we will be learning how to say "this/that/it/the". It's really easy!
이 is used when the objet is near you.
저 is used when the objet is far away from both (you and the other person you are talking to).
그 is used when the objet is far away from you but near the other person you are talking to.
What if i don't want to say the name of the objet? Well, in that case, you can use -거 (것) after 이/저/그. As you can imagine, -거 (것) means "item, thing". (This is how i learnt it to be more easy for me, if someone more advance in korean knows a better way to explain the used of -거 (것), please tell us!)
Therefore:
이 means this.
이거 means this thing, this item, this one.
저 means that (over there).
저거 means that thing/item over there.
그 means the, that.
그거 means the thing, the item, that one, it.
Hope its clear for you all! I tried to use very simple ways to get this!
See you soon!
HOMEWORK:
1. How do you say "what is that over there?"?
2. How do you say "this computer"? Computer = 컴퓨터.
Fill the blanks with the Korean word to make the Korean and English sentences have the same meaning.
3. 그거 (___) 예요? - What is it?
4. 저거 뭐(___)? 저거 코피(___)? - What is that? Is that coffee over there?
Translate each word to English.
5. -거 (것) -
6. 이 -
7. 저거 -
8. 그 -
Correct answer under the cut.
저거 뭐예요?
이 컴퓨터.
뭐.
예요 and 예요.
thing, item.
this.
that item over there / that thing over there.
that, the.
