"I dream."

Translation: 저는 꿈을 꿉니다.

[kulayam]

꿈꾸다 (to dream) v. = 꿈 (dream) n. + 꾸다 (to dream) v.
But we can't say 꾸다 alone (without 꿈을), because that verb requires an object. So it's either 꿈꾸다 or 꿈을 꾸다

[JOrlando3]

So, is it more like saying "I dream a dream" rather than "I dream?" - like other sentences in this lesson, the grammar seems really different than what we've learned before.

Why is this verb kumeun kumnida, rather than just being able to use kumnida? Or should I be taking it all as one word?

[MaryGlover]

꼽니다 requires a non noun. Instead of "I dream", Korean requires you to say "I dream a dream". That's just how it is.

[MaryGlover]

ignore the non

[SvedishPlumber]

What he/she said!

[Murakel]

저는 악몽을 꿉니다. "I dream a nightmare." For when you have a bad dream.

[SabianF]

Does that not translate to "I dream a dream"?

[Caio862228]

In english that redundancy is grammatically wrong. But in korean it is needed.
You should have in mind that you can't translate word by word, specially when you have so different languages such english and korean.

[NoorIrsyad]

If im not wrong it requires a noun, therefore it should techmically be "I dreamed a dream" instead of just i dream

[kookimoonsta]

I don't have a Korean keyboard

[DarrenBerk]

저는 건반 한국어 없어요. :P

[Blessing389006]

I do not have a Korean keyboard. :P (?)

[IngeborgHa14]

Well, 저는 꿈꿉니다 is not accepted but should.

[HarryStyle265990]

so i can use that too?

[deactivated user]

As far as i know, that's how the Korean language works. It also happens to some pretty common phrases like 저는 잠을 자요 (I sleep a sleep) or 저는 춤을 춰요 (I dance a dance). It's something about culture :)
