- "남자하고 여자"
93 Comments
In case anyone is confused, "하고" implies no sort of relationship and is used in both speech and writing, whereas "워/과" implies that there is a relationship and is primarily used in writing and more formal speech. For example, if you're describing kimchi and rice, using 하고 would mean that they are not combined together as part of the same dish; they are simply separate ingredients that you are listing. If you would like to talk about kimchi and rice as a dish together, use 워 or 과.
Another example I read about is if you are talking about two people who live in Seoul. If you use 하고, it means they are two individuals who both happen to live in Seoul. They could live together, but not necessarily. If you use 워 or 과, they live together in Seoul; you are speaking of them as a collective.
At least, this is what I have come to understand. If I am wrong, please correct me:)
In Russian "и" means "and" and "a" means "but". Not both "and" and "and including"
Yes, but,
"However, while И is a joining conjugation, А is a separating conjugation. Russians use the conjunction A for contraposition."

Example: Я ем хлеб и яблоко. (I eat apple and bread.)
Я Том, а это Дженни. (I am Tom, and this is Jenny.) NOT I am Tom but this is Jenny.
а can sometimes equate to the English "but", but not always.
The difference of 하고 and 와/과 just reminds me of this fact.
и = 와/과
а = 하고
I have a question, can you also say 그리고 keurigo? Is thay also a form of and?
But the previous lesson never taught the meaning and use of 워. It was never mentioned. Instead, 와 was mentioned and taught. You have brought in an entirely new word. I’m guessing that 워 also means and. But what is the difference then, between 와 and 워?
If you have access to a computer just go on doulingo and it'll be on there next to the test.
Whant if it is used with objects? (I don't have the korean letters in my computer so I am just going to describe) What if you use the one (that is acctualy used in informal speech) with a person and a object? Does it mean that the object does not belong to the person? And if you do it with the formal one, does it mean thee object belongs to that person?

What's the difference between 하고 and the other one from the previous lesson which also meant "and" (i think it was 워?)
One difference I researched is that 와/과 is used more commonly in writing while 하고 is used mostly in conversation.
I am not sure, so dont quote me on this matter. But I think that in Korean classes our professor explained that hago conveys a "with" connotation. So you can use it also for gogi hago bap "meat with rice'
Don't quote me on this, but I think 하고 is just a more colloquial form of 과/와.
i think it ->MIGHT<- be that instead of "A Man" or "Men" its just "Man" by itself.
so "a man" is 남자 but to say just "Man" its 남자하
( PLEASE correct me if im wrong )
Correcto, they do not. Neither does The. They dont use articles in many asian languages, actually.
I thought and was either "과" after a consonant, or "와" after a vowel? Obviously, I must be wrong, so what is the use of "하고?"
i've been trying to figure out how to type this part: 하. in what order do you type it?
ㅎ is a single letter. Youre probably thinking of combining ㅗ and ㅇ, but that's wrong. ㅎ is one single letter equivalent to our H. . . Sometimes the vertical tiny line on the top is represented as a horizontal line instead
On an english keyboard with korean settings, the "ㅎ" is where the "g" is on an english keyboard. You would then type "ㅏ", which is in place of the "k". The "ㅎ" isn't two separate characters put together, and can be written with a horizontal line on a vertical line on top, or with two lines on top of the o. I hope this helps! :)
you did add the particles to it when you added 하고 those together work as and and a particle, because they are topic markers. Words for [and/particles] this is just and/particle 하고 (you use this more in speaking sentences) this you have to put after a vowel와 this you put after a consanant과 and you use this if they are not related 와과
남자 is more like 'boy' and 여자 is more like 'girl' so I dont know why they mark boy and girl wrong...
I think 남자 is man whereas 남자아이 would be boy, and the same for woman and girl, right?
Does this mean that 남자와 여자 means Man and woman (couple) and 남자하고 여자 means Man and woman (not a couple), am i correct?
Why is there a "go" (고) at the end of 남자 하고? if "A man and ..." doesn´t have "go"
학교 means school from the previous posts in this lesson...and its meaning suddenly changes to 'and'?!
Duo - please teach the words. Put new ones in yellow and offer a slow speech function like they do in other languages. I find the Korean audio very poor quality.
