The more you say them, the more natural they’ll feel in conversation. Key Phrases to Practice Now, let’s put this vocabulary into action with some practical sentences. I’ll say each phrase twice—listen carefully and repeat after me. 1. 빵을 맛있어요? – Did you eat the bread? 네, 맛있어요. – Yes, it’s delicious. 2. 한국어 공부가 어려워요? – Is studying Korean difficult? 아니요, 재미있어요. – No, it’s fun. 3. 지금 뭐해요? – What are you doing right now? 한국어를 공부해요. – I’m studying Korean. 4. 오늘 뭐 해요? – What are you doing today? 친구를 만나요. – I’m meeting a friend. 5. 저는 오늘 책을 읽어요. 책이 재미있어요. – I’m reading a book today. The book is interesting. Grammar Notes To help you construct sentences confidently, let’s break down two key grammar points: 1. -아/어요 Grammar This is a polite sentence ending used to describe actions in the present tense. It attaches to the verb stem. For example: • 공부하다 (to study) → 공부해요 (I’m studying). • 먹다 (to eat) → 먹어요 (I’m eating). 2. 을/를 Grammar These are object markers. Use 을 after a consonant and 를 after a vowel to indicate the object of a sentence. For example: • 책을 읽다 → "to read a book." • 커피를 마시다 → "to drink coffee." These grammar structures are essential for daily conversations in Korean, so practice them as much as you can. Quiz Time Now, let’s test your knowledge! Try translating these sentences into Korean. I’ll pause after each question to give you time to think. 1. The food is delicious. 2. I’m meeting a friend. 3. What are you doing right now? How did you do? Check the phrases we practiced earlier to see if your answers were correct!
