sorry to ask but which song's line is it please tell me i am also a bts fan...... hehehe....
They have the same word for ocean and sea? Are there individual or other words that apply too?
When you want to say I'm going to the sea/ocean, you can use 바다. But if you mean Ocean like the Pacific Ocean, use 대양.
Im happy there are knowledgeable people here to 'explain' in detail on the specifics.
바다 is a common word to say "sea/ocean", whereas 대양 (ocean) and 해 (sea) are used in specific situations.
and just a little tip, 바닷가 is used to refer to "beach", but it holds a similar root to 바다.
Please provide International Phonetic Alphabet for the Korean words to make it useful for students to learn to pronounce each word properly.
There are many Korean words, which entered Korean through Chinese. In Korean, they call these "한자" (hanja); the "한자" is the Chinese character itself.
People will use the Chinese character (the 한자) to differentiate words, since lots of them sound the same after porting into Korean.
바다 is a native Korean word meaning sea/ocean.
해(海) is a 한자 word with the same meaning.
And for one example, 해(害) is a 한자 word that means "harm, damage, evil, injury".
badaya uriwa gachi nora 바다야 우리와 같이 놀아, ah barama neodo ijjogeuro wa 바람아 너도 이쪽으로 와, whoa
Dalpit jeomyeon araeso neowa nawa saesangwa dagachi party all night long, yeah it's good
The correct answer should not be capitalized as that gives away which is the right answer without having to know the word.
I find it fun that the word for sea/ocean in korean is similar to the russian word for water. I wonder if there is a relation there
Seems unlikely. Wikitionary says that the Korean word comes from Old Korean "波珍 (*patɔr)", which is clearly from Chinese.
But the Russian word is apparently "from Proto-Slavic voda, from Proto-Balto-Slavic wandō, ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *wódr̥."
That's very cool. Curious coincidence. There's also the word for good/ok that's similar in both languages but it's probably similarly unrelated.
i have a question, so what is take, or like borrowing a things in korean? is it 받다? kinda confusing..
The primary meaning of 받다 is to possess things that someone gives to you or sends to you. It's mainly like receive/get.
Take has more than one meaning in Korean. Take as in "to possess something and go somewhere with it (ex: I took my lunch to work) " is 가지고 가다 (가지다 = have/possess; 가다 = go)
Take as in to deprive someone of something is 빼앗다 or ___을 박탈하다
Take as in how the mode is transportation is "___로 타다"
And borrow, lend, and even rent are all "빌리다". AFAIK, they'll use the particles like 에게 (to) and 에서 (from) to differentiate. There also are other verbs for rent, depending on context
Please explain me about BTS... Before telling please also mention that BTS is for kids or not?
