"죄송합니다."

Translation: Sorry.

[zedlearns]

Note for the use of the words 미안합니다 + 죄송합니다: Sorry is an admittance of guilt in KR. Sometimes, english speakers use sorry to express that they are being empathetic towards a situation. But that's not the case in KR. So if someone's family member passes away, you don't say 미안합니다 or 죄송합니다. Unless you killed their family member :/

[PALewis88]

I believe 죄송 means apology, so 죄송 + 하다 = to do apology, if that helps people with the relative meaning.

罪悚(죄송), apology

[LaneyMarie96]

Maybe this should be translated to something more formal considering the honorific.

[Paige1814]

what is the difference between this and mianhabnida?

[ARMYPerson5]

" I'm Sorry" reminds me of "AGUST D."

[ANeFv]

"I apologize" seems more accurate, since the literal translation is apology-do. Avoids the mixup with the " I'm sorry" you'd typically use at funerals.

[Hyunjintoxicated]

So which could be the right sitiation to say 죄송합니다?

[Draymal]

I think it's for when you do a mistake, like if you broke your mom's flower pot.

What is the difference between 'mianhae' and 'jesonghamnida'

[be._.nice]

I think ''mianhae'' is the informal way to say sorry, whereas ''jesonghamnida'' is for the formal way. Idk but the suffix -hamnida looks formal ;-;

I am so happy to learn Korea and sometimes I will speak Korea and thankyou very much Duolingo app

[ph.C6dqz7]

Me too

[Lucyp3arl]

I am sorry should also be accepted as a correct answer

[Annie333267]

I'm so confused.
Duo says 죄송합니다 is sorry or i am sorry. I answer "am sorry" and turns out its wrong. Uhm... Why?

[TacticalPho]

This is because "am sorry" is grammatically incorrect in English. You have to either omit or include the "I am" in "I am sorry".

[OwaisTheGreat]

I always read "죄" as "cho ee", it's actually "chae" right?
