Korean Language Notes #oo4: Negative Sentences
Hello people, you guys must be hating me since i didn't update anything for weeks or months(?) haha.
Well here's another update about HOW TO BUILD NEGATIVE SENTENCES IN KOREAN. And let me warn you guys one more time, I, myself is still learning korean. I'm doing this because i want to at least improve something haha. I learn most of everything from TTMIK but i will explain to you guys in my way though i am suck at explaining things and i will get some examples on the net. Okay, i talked too much :(
LET'S START!
Negative sentences are generally made in TWO ways by;
o1# Adding 안(an) before a verb
o2# Using the negative verb, 지 않다(ji an-da)
*// the o1# is so freaking easy if you compare it to o2#, you don't really have to worry much because i will try my best to explain! ^^
*// you will use o2# in formal conversations.
o1# 안(an)
Formation:
안 + VERB
- 봐요 (bwa-yo) = 안 봐요 (an-bwa-yo) // See = Do not see
- 가요 (ga-yo) = 안 가요 (an-ga-yo) // Go = Do not go
- 먹어요 (meog-eo-yeo) = 안 먹어요 (an-meog-eo-yo) // Eat = Do not eat
As for NOUN + 해요 verbs use; NOUN + 안 + 해요
- 연습해요 (yeon-seub-hae-yo) = 연습 안 해요 (yeon-seub-an-hae-yo) // Practice = Do not practice
- 여행해요 (yeo-haeng-hae-yo) = 여행 안 해요 (yeo-haeng-an-hae-yo) // Travel = Do not travel
More examples:
- 집에 안 가요 (jib-e-an-ga-yo) = I'm not going home
- 그거 안 버렸어요 (geu-geo-an-beo-ryeoss-eo-yo) = I didn't throw it away
o2# 지 않다(ji an-da)
Formation:
VERB + 지 않다
지 않다 is the basic form and you need to conjugate it according to the tense.
Present tense: 지 않아요 (ji-anh-a-yo)
Past tense: 지 않았어요 (ji-anh-ass-eo-yo)
Examples for the verb TO GO // 가다 (ga-da):
- 가지 않다 = To not go
- 가지 않아요 = I'm not going
- 가지 않았어요 = I didn't go
Examples for the verb TO THROW AWAY // 버리다 (beo-ri-da):
- 버리지 않다 = To not throw away
- 버리지 않아요 = I don't throw it away
- 버리지 않았어요 = I didn't throw it away
If you have questions, lodge it in the comments. If you need more examples, you can ask me so that i can update this post with more examples. Sorry for lacking but thanks for reading! :D
