Actually, in Korea, sleeping at work is seen as dedication, because you never went home.
Maybe the fiction writer was that good. Skilled writing hijacks the imagination.
They are synonymous. The former looks more emphasised, but I think I personally don't distinguish between them.
It's 꿈을 etc. You want to write 우, not 으 :) and I think (not a korean speaker though) it has the same meaning, maybe the 꿈 꿉니다 is to put more stress on the verb?
Since both the nous and verb versions of the word "dream" are here, could it not also be "the student dreams a dream in the library?
it's the literal translation, but i think it's not right because you wouldn't say that in english in normal conversation.
English speaker here - it is indeed possible you would say that.
However, this would put an emphasis on the noun, the particular dream one is dreaming, as opposed to the action of dreaming.
I know 꿈을 꿉니다 just means 'dream' but would it also be correct to just say 꿉니다? Thank you~
From what I've found in Wiki, the answer is "No" cause omitting 꿈을would change the meaning of 꿉니다 to "borrow", you can look up more at: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%EA%BE%B8%EB%8B%A4
Well, you could have sentences like these:
- 악몽(惡夢)을 꾸다 → to have a nightmare
- 내가 꾸었던 꿈 → … a dream I had
But 꿈 … 꾸 is indeed the most common pattern encountered.
Why did i get the answer wrong only because instead of writing "at" i wrote "in".... In the library is correct english as well
Like in English, the continuous present tense (e.g. "is doing") has a separate verb form from the simple present tense (e.g. "does") in Korean. This distinction doesn't exist in every language, but in those that have it, it is often an important difference.
Could someone explain to me the meaning of adding "-에서", "-에", "-으로", "에게서", and "-에게" to words, and what I should add them onto?
에서 is used at the end of a place when the person is doing an activity there, or if an activity is taking place there. e.g. I study at the library- 저는 도서관에서 공부합니다
에 is used to indicate place and time, ie it is a particle placed after place and time words.e.g.
I go home- 저는 집에 가요
I eat in the morning- 저는 아침에 먹습니다
I go to school at 9 am.- 아침에 9 시에 학교에 가요.
으로 means "by means of" or "in"- eg I go to school by bus- 저는 버스로 학교에 가요.
I speak to Susan in English.- 저는 수잔에게 영어로 말함니다
I love with my heart.- 저는 마음으로 사랑해요
에게서 means 'from', 에게 means 'to' I receive a present from my friend- 제 친구에게서 선물을 받슴니다
I send a present to my friend.- 저는 친구에게 선물을 보냅니다
Hope this helps
Since both the nous and verb versions of the word "dream" are here, could it not also be "the student dreams a dream in the library?
That is technically what it means but it wouldn’t be translated as such because it sounds a little awkward
What do you mean by ‘redundant words’? Which part of the sentence is confusing?

I would like to know when to use in and when at. I know the difference in english but I do not see a difference Korean and in the sentence above both make sense but in was not correct?!?
I did choose the "the" at the first one and "The" in the last sentence and it seems like I was wrong? Why?

As a korean, Korean class in duoling have got so many issues. In this sentence, it would be ok in the normal situation. But
The student is lucky cause he is atleast at South korea.. Let me dreaming about meeting bts ... Southkorea ma dream
which one means "dream"? 꿈 or 꿉?? if they both mean "dream", why are BOTH of them there? If only one of them means "dream", then what does the other word mean? Please help!
I would give the student a bash on his head and tell him not to dream
