"Garam, who is there?"

Translation: 가람 씨, 누가 거기에 있어요?

[dipagssi]

Why is "가람 씨, 거기에 누구예요?" wrong? Can someone explain? Thanks.

[yoonhyemi]

I wrote "가람 씨, 거기에 누구입니까?" and it was marked wrong.
I feel this should also be accepted. Can anyone explain what's the matter with it? Thanks

[Koenig248711]

It's the same case as 누구입니까. See my explanation a little further down

[teeseirelav]

Nuances. Your translation gives "who is it over there?" Which suggests that you may be looking at someone but you dont know his identity. Here it is more of a situation where you dont even see the person and you want to know who is there, not who the person is

[fornalina]

Both 가람 and 가람 씨 should be accepted as a correct answer since 씨 is practically untranslatable.

[fornalina]

Moreover 가람 씨 거기에 누가 있어요 sounds more natural

[AzimAsjadZ]

I agree with you

[mxriii]

I probably would have said 'Mr garam' in that case

[Ingrid999653]

whats the difference with 누가 and 누구가 how will i know when to use what

[Yoshi.5]

누가 is just the contracted version of 누구가. You can use both at any time. It's kind of like Do not - Don't

[blzs92]

Can I say in this case ? 가람 거기에 누구예요 ?

[KrishPan]

when garam is destroying you and his gf texts

[yoonhyemi]

I wrote "가람 씨, 거기에 누구입니까" and it was marked wrong. Can someone please explain this? Thanks!

누구입니까 comes from 이다 , a verb used for describing characteristics or quality like e.g. name, profession and so on.
거기에 누가 있어요 (from 있다) asks: who is located there. The difficulty is, that both totally different meanings are represented in English with the same verb 'to be'

[MyUphoriaJK97]

I just remember.... Jimin shiiiiiiiiiii

[EltYDk]

I just feel like you should be able to say there before who. That's how we use it casually in my family. Why is it a typo?

[yoonhyemi]

Also, what's wrong with saying 거기에 누가 있어요?

[pipi310847]

That would be "There, is who".
