to the Korean
Language
1. Korean Sentence Structure
2. Conjugation of Verbs and Adjectives
3. Connecting Sentences
4. Sentence Types
5. Honorific Expressions1. Korean Sentence Structure
Korean sentences consist of either “a subject + predicate (verb)" or “a subject + object +
predicate (verb).”
Ao] 7a.
subject + predicate
Carol goes.
leo] ABS Bo} 2.
subject + object + predicate
Eric eats an apple.
AB] 22.
subject + predicate
Carol sleeps.
eo] Ez} AS gola,
subject + object + predicate
Eric reads a book in the library.
Particles are attached to words in Korean sentences. They express the role that their respective
words play in the sentence. After the subject of a sentence, the particle O| or 7} is used. After an
| object, the particle or # is used. And after an adverbial, the particle Of] or O{|71| is used.
(See also Unit 3. Particles)
subject object
ole] ABLE Fela,
oo] EAB WS go}a,
subject adverbial object
While the predicate of a Korean sentence always comes at the very end of the sentence,
the order of subjects, objects, and adverbials changes depending on the intention of the speaker.
Regardless of their order in the sentence, however, the role of each of these parts can stil be identified
because of the particle attached to it.
14ABS elo] Bola. aS SAB Meo] Bole.

In addition, when the subject can be clearly understood from the context, it can be omitted,
A oejo] aa? What is Eric doing?
B (f24O]) AHS YOUR, — ets eating an apple
A Ojcjol] 712.2 Where do (you) go?
B Sato] 71-2, {0 900 schoo!
2. Conjugation of Verbs and Adjectives
One of the characteristics of Korean verbs and adjectives is that they both are conjugated
according to tense, politeness level, passive and causative forms, and speech styles. Verbs and
adjectives consist of a word stem and word ending, with their base forms comprised of the word stem
plus Ch. This form is also called the ‘dictionary form.’ Accordingly, a dictionary search for such words
will reveal their base forms, such as 7}C} (to go), SC} (to come), HC} (to eat), and QICf (to wear).
When conjugated, the word stems of verbs and adjectives do not change; rather, Cf is replaced with
the appropriate form depending on the speaker's intention.

3. Connecting Sentences
‘There are two ways to connect sentences in Korean. One is by using conjunctive adverbs (¢.9.,
2JD (and), 1B1X/St (but), “ZEAE {so/therefore)), and the other is by using conjunctive endings.

It’s snowing, so the tratic s bad.When connecting two sentences with a conjunctive adverb, it is sufficient simply to place the
conjunctive adverb between the two sentences. However, when using a conjunctive ending, the
ending must be attached to the word stem of the predicate of the preceding sentence to connect the
two sentences.

4. Sentence Types
Korean has four main santence types: declarative, interrogative, imparative, and propositive,
Moreover, the sentence type is influenced by Korean speech styles, which can be divided into three
main types: formal polite, informal polite, and informal plain. The formal polite style (4) e§ LIC} is
used most in formal or public situations, including the military, news reporting, presentations, meetings,
and lectures. The informal polite style -Of/01 is the honorific form used most in daily life. Compared
to the formal polite style, the informal polite style is softer and less formal, and therefore it is used
mainly among family members, friends, and other close acquaintances. Furthermore, although the
formal polite style has different forms for each of the four sentence types (declarative, interrogative,
imperative, and propositive), the informal polite style uses the same form for all four types. Thus,
sentence types in this style are determined by the situation and sentence intonation, For this reason,
the informal polite style is less complicated than the formal polite style. As for the Informal plain style
—O}/0}, it is mainly used among intimate friends, by superiors toward persons of lower-rank, and
among family members. It is considered rude to use the informal plain style with somebody one
does not know personally or with whom one is not very close. Here we examine the formal polite and
informal polite styles only.
(4) Declarative Sentence
Declarative sentences are used when explaining something or responding to a question.
(See also Unit 1. Tenses 01 Present Tense)
® Formal Polite Style
Declarative formal polite sentences are made by adding (4) t LIC} to the word stem.
+ AS Sof yd, 1 goto schoo

Introduction to the Korean Languecs® Informal Polite Style
Declarative informal polite sentences are made by adding —Of/01 to the word stem.
+ AS Baro] 7h2, | g0 to school.
+ AS BS Hols, (eat breed
(2) Interrogative Sentences
Interrogative sentences are used when asking a question. (See also Unit 1. Tenses 01 Present Tense)
@ Formal Polite Style
Interrogative formal polite sentences are made by adding —(.) 4 L{77}? to the word stem.
+ Sve] ZU 7}? Doyeugato hac
+ abe BAUz? Do you set bread?
® Informal Polite Style
Interrogative informal polite sentences are made by adding —Of/0{2? to the word stem.
Because they have the same form as declarative sentences, they are made interrogative by
being spoken with a rising intonation at the end of the sentence (and also by adding a question
mark to the written form).
+ ro} 748? Dervouigatesata
+ MS WojA? ayo ore
(3) Imperative Sentences
Imperative sentences are used when making a demand or giving advice.
(See also Unit 7. Demands and Obligations, Permission and Prohibition 01 V-(2)x1&)
@® Formal Polite Style
imperative formal polite sentences are made by adding (2)4JA|@ to the word stem.
+ Balo] AAAl2, Pisaze write in your notebook
+ AS Vora, Plaase read the book.
18® Informal Polite Style
Imperative informal polite sentences can be made by adding —O}/01 to the word stem, just
like in the other sentence types described above. However, using —(2) Ai] in place of —O}/
013 is considered a more polite expression, and therefore —(©)Al|@ should be used.
+ Bao] Aye. Please writs in your notebook
+ aS Voye, Please read the book.
(4) Propositive Sentences
Propositive sentences are used when making a suggestion or agreeing with someone alse's,
‘suggestion. (See also Unit 12. Asking Opinions and Making Suggestions 03 V-{2) AIC)
® Formal Polite Style
Propositive formal polite sentences are made by adding (2) AJC} to the word stem. -(2)
AIC} can be used when the person being spoken to is younger or the same age as the
‘speaker. It cannot be used when speaking to a superior. It is considered improper etiquette to
Use this expression toward a superior or elder.
* 1so] SeAt, Let's meet at 11 otlock.

Introduction to the Korean Language 195. Honorific Expressions
Due to the influence of Confucian thought on Korean society, it is common for Korean
speakers to use both honorific and humble forms of speech in conversation according to age, farnily
relationships, social status, and social distance (degree of intimacy).
(2) Honoring the Subject of the Sentence
Honorifics are used when the subject of a sentence is a person older than the speaker, a senior
member of one's family, or a person of higher social rank. To honor the subject, (2)A| is
added to the stems of adjectives and verbs. For verb stems ending in a vowel, ~Al is added,
and for those ending in a consonant, —2.A| is added,

Honorifics are used when the listener is older or of higher social status than the speaker and
also when the speaker and listener are not acquainted with each other, regardless of age. Final
endings are used to express the degree of respect, and they can be formed from each of the
formal polite, informal polite, and informal plain styles,

(4) Things to Remember when Using Honorifics
® In Korean it is common to address others by repeatedly using their name or title rather
than pronouns such as 4! (you), L (you), “2 (he/him), “LL (she/hen), and 1 (they/
them).

The informal polite style is the honorific form used most in deily life. Compared to the formal polite
style, this style is softer and less formal and is therefore used mainly among family members, friends,
and other close acquaintances. The declarative and interrogative forms of the informal polite style are
the same. The declarative form is therefore made by ending the sentence in a falling tone while the
interrogative form is made by ending the sentence in a rising tone,
