Negation

 Negation In this lesson we’re going to learn about negation in Korean, using 아니다, 안 V, or V-지 않다. N이/가 아니다 ────────────────── -> This is the antonym of 이다, and means “to not be”. -> In informal polite form it is conjugated as 아니에요. -> You combine this verb only with -이/가 attached to a noun. -> It is never used when negating verbs or adjectives, ONLY nouns. EXAMPLES 저는 학생이 아니에요 I am not a student 그 것은 물이 아니에요. 술이에요. That (thing) is not water. It is alcohol. V-지 않다 ────────────────── MEANING: We already know how to say "I study Korean", or "It is pretty". To make these "I do not study Korean" and "It is not pretty", you add -지 않다 to the verb stem. Using -지 않다 -> Verb stem+지 않다 -> Remove 다 to get the verb stem. Regular and irregular verbs are treated the same. -> -지 is attached to the verb stem and there is a space between -지 and 않다. EXAMPLES -> The verb being negated is in parenthesis I do not study Korean. (공부하다) 한국어를 공부하지...

Is ㄹ pronounced as L or R?

This is probably one of the most common questions that beginners ask when learning 한글. Just like every beginner learners, I went through this as well which is why I decided to study pronunciation rules too. I created this post to help clear up any confusion. When ㄹ is located at the beginning of a word, it sounds more like an R. Example: 라디오 (ra-di-o), 레슨 (re-seun), 로맨틱 (ro-man-tik) When ㄹ is located between two vowels, it sounds like an R. Example: 다리 (da-ri), 사랑 (sa-rang), 어렵다 (eo-ryeob-dda), 모르다 (mo-reu-da), 노력 (no-ryeok), 매력 (mae-ryeok) When ㄹ is located at the end of a word, it’s pronounced more like an L. Example: 딸 (ddal), 아들 (a-deul), 월 (weol), 달 (dal), 칼 (khal), 연필 (yeon-pil), 교실 (gyo-sil) When ㄹ is followed by a consonant or followed by another ㄹ, it sounds like L. Example: 딸기 (ddal-gi), 힘들다 (him-deul-da), 몰라 (mol-la), 살자 (sal-ja), 고릴라 (go-ril-la) When ㄹ comes after any consonant except ㄴ, ㄹ is pronounced as N. Example: 생리 (saeng-ni), 국립 (gung-nip), 능력 (neung-nyeok) When ㄹ co...
