"여자와 남자"

Translation: a woman and a man

[hazlebee]

와 / 과 means "and", used to link 2 nouns together. Consonant: 과.
물과 커피. Water and coffee.
No consonant: 와.
고양이와 강아지. Cat and dog.

[MatheusAvellar]

I thought dog was 개? Is 강아지 a synonym?

[mas925]

it's puppy but a lot of people use it for dogs in general because 개 is also a swear word :)

[yuhitsfei]

what swear word is it?

[jdoeendjdjd]

Take a guess lol.

[SailorChib2]

B**** I think...

[Hikarrii]

Yeah i guess 암개 is bitch so..

[BramMenning]

강아지 is Korean for puppy

[emmarghx]

개 means dog, 강아지 means puppy

[habby890505]

개 means dog and 강아지 means puppy

[popscreen7]

I think 강아지 is more of a puppy

[LunaFiguer4]

Is puppy!

[hazlebee]

You can also use 강아지 with dogs, not just puppies. My Korean friend always does it and agreed with me.

[EliKee]

Even in English I call some adult dogs puppies. Even big dogs that are really sweet so that makes since. People tend to baby pets anyway.

[PERCE_NEIGE]

Maybe when it's cute? (Just asking)

[Artiny06]

강아지 means puppy.

[ph.Eh0nb6]

[Shruti2003Singh]

I didn't understand related to consonant and no consonant..Can you explain littke briefly please?? Are you Korean or learning it??

[esah18]

I'm still confuse cause which is consonant? Like before 과? Or how?

[deactivated user]

if a word ends with a consonant we use 과 after. If it ends with a vowel we use 와

[Lucero627223]

Last word... 물 ㄹ- is consonat
고양이 ㅣ- is vowel

[Tehillah18.]

'ㄱ' is the consonent 'ㅗ' and 'ㅏ' are the vowels

[Shruti2003Singh]

You seem quite intelligent related to Korean.. Help me please.

[daxe708514]

you mean when the first word finish in consonant or vocal, and not the beggining of the next word

[Nonhlanhla580166]

Thanks

[MariaAmoro4]

What do you mean by consonant and no consonant??? Sorryyyy..

Why is there no option to slow the audio/voice down, so you can hear and understand the sentence more clearly?

[Yerrick]

Only the old courses have that feature. It might take some time before they can add it

[kim.616660]

the button with the turtle is just that ! slows down the speaker/audio.

[Dragonqueen2009]

There is, it will be a turtle, since turtles are slow they put a turtle. Hopes this helps! ;)

[demigod1945]

It seems that "and" in this particular example is suffixed on the word "woman" in the form of 와 <wa>.

[lang864129]

女子와 男子

[LittleWhole]

Thank you so much for the hanja

[Hobiii_]

What's the difference between "gwa" and "hago"?

[imjustpaulinah]

와/과 is used mostly in written Korean and is more formal than 하고.

[dpatkat]

Choices on buying a sound package? May not be quality choices for each language.

Also, because I use app not web, I noticed great differences between teaching. More use of pictures, sentences sooner, more explanation online...or if i make a mistake repeats item right away so I can pick correct one.

Team knowledge and how much time volunteers can assist. Plus how many of us try the beta versions...and then, if you see now, Spanish even has dialogue bots and podcasts.

For Korean, i think i saw a Duolingo email or message invite to join a Duolingo learning group chat. Also, teams do go back and correct on our feedback.

I have returned to languages and see new stuff in lessons that I finished.

[tuna_mayooo]

Guys, what's the difference between 와 and 과? Both of them means 'and' but how to know where to use what? Please help :(

[ashlingaling]

From what I've read, we're gonna use 와 if the word before it ends with a vowel, and 과 if it ends with a consonant

[JiminWifeyy]

help me how do I know the different of men and man women and women!!! T^T

[KookieBTSARMY101]

Based off of what I learnt... Men is "남자들" I have also seen men be translated to "남자는" (with different context, I believe "남자는" could also be translated as "the man") man is just "남자" the same rules apply for women.. Except, a woman would be translated as "여자"so women would be "여자들/여자는" Sorry I'm not so good at explaining but, I tried so hope you got the answer to your question :D

[swagpie]

I wrote "a woman and A man" and it said it was wrong since its "A woman and a man" urg

[armythatbl1]

ya same

[Jan239508]

여자와 남자

[24_sameera_24]

Does 'wa' mean 'and'????

[8PtL13]

Yup

[araafjmalik]

It is difficult

[ph.7rip5I]

What is the meaning of wa?

[deactivated user]

"와" means "and"

[roberto727]

It could be "female and male" in a special context as a modifier. It could also be women and men. 여자와 남자 옷은 여기서 팔려요. Clothes for women and men are sold here. It is true that Korean does not have "articles" per se, 그 and 저 are sometimes translated "the" but "that" or "those" is probably more appropriate in those cases. To convey the English meaning of "a", "one" (하나) is sometimes added after the noun.

[Angel66793]

what is the different with women and men , woman and man ..... iam cofused

[kkMoonie]

'들' indicates that it's plural.

If there is '들' after any noun it is in plural.

'여자' is a woman
'남자' is a man

BUT

'여자들' are women
'남자들' are men

I hope this helped even a little bit.

[ashlingaling]

Thanks for this

[AishleyLar1]

What is the difference between women and woman, man and men?

[army.blink87]

Man : a grown-up male person .
Men : plural of man
Look at dictionary :)

[Ayu_57]

[Aiyana65]

Ummm hamja means man right? Why does the translation show 'guys' instead? I am very new to Korean so... Just wanted to learn in case i ever meet bts

[labellymochii]

my answer is true

[Dragonqueen2009]

I put in what it wanted and it said it was wrong it wanted "A woman and a man" and I put "A woman and a man" I am doing Korean 여자와 남자 this does mean "A woman and a man" right?

[ashlingaling]

Maybe because they put 여자 before 남자? The meaning was basically the same, but they wrote woman first before man so they expect us to translate it according to how they constructed the sentence

[ph.Rtd4Mh]

What's the different between 와 and 과, it have the same meaning 'and'

[-_ArmyWithLuv_-]

The first one is for when there is a consonant (받침) in the characters behind.
And the other for without.
I'm sorry if it's still a bit unclear, English isn't my first language...

[ph.x7zS9B]

I can't understand this is a little hard

[ph.YrLRgc]

Hi

[annie_.maria]

Hi, does anyone know if 'geu ri go 그리고' also means 'and'? Ive been learning on TalkToMeInKorean and they taught that instead. Thanks <3

[swastika596661v]

I have very different to speak this word

[XylonPH]

Is 와 directly after 여자 or is there a space after it? And if there isn't a space, what is the rule regarding attaching "and" between nouns?
