는/은 are both subject markers. This means they are used for general things. E.g: "A" man, would be 남자는
가/이 are both topic markers. This means they are used for specific things. E.g: "THE" man, would be 남자가
Rachel_Nina I would like to correct as what you define subject marker is topic marker. That means subject marker is ga/i. And Topic marker is neun/ eun. Thank you.
When ㅅ is the bottom character it is a shortened sound so it sounds like T. In 없 the ㅅ isnt being pronounced. It is the ㅅ in 습 that is being pronounced so it sounds like S.
The problem is that i answered wrong (ㅓ/ㅏ) but Duolingo accepted it like a typo(((

i love it when i get it correct and it marks me wrong, then i check my answer w/ the correct answer and it was the same :,)
Why is the s at the bottom of mat not carried over to pronounce as: Ma seot and why is the s pronounced if for this batchim only b is supposed to pronounced

I don't know if you watch kdrama but this reminds me of Ko Mun Yeong in It's okay to not be okay She said 맛있어 instead of 멋있어 멋 refers to "cool" as a human characteristic 맛 refers to taste
in 맛없습니다 why the ㅅ at the end of 맛 is pronounced like the letter T, and the one in 없 like the letter S?
Because when the ㅅ is in the last position, not followed by a vowel, it's normally pronounced like an hard T But in 없습 The 1st ㅅ it's followed by another ㅅ and you've to read them like ㅆ (ss)
It's a rule of Batchim. Read a few articles about it. It'll make learning Korean WAAAAY easier. Hope I helped
I believe this is just one of those things that has to be accepted without explination lol. Possibly the double batchim? Idk. At least it's easier than English pronunciation
Because of the sound made when your tongue comes together with the back of your teeth and you shut off the flow of exhaled air.
Why is it "namja-ga meos-eobs-seubnida" and not "namja-neun meos-eobs-seubnida?"
Why is it 남자가 instead of 남자는? I thought you would use a topical marker since "man" is the topic of the sentence.
How come in 멋없 the ㅅ sound like a d/t, however in 멋있 the ㅅ sound like s. I've read about Batchim and it makes sense with 멋있, where it becomes 머싰, but why doesn't 멋없 become 머섮 ?
What is the difference between 제미없습니다 and 멋없습니다??? I am way beyond confused. at one point, they mean the same thing and then another, they don't. Send help!
It's funny because I skimmed over the answers and mistook this for saying, "The man is awesome," therefore getting it wrong.
"맛없습니다" is as it says above, "uncool." However, "재미없습니다" means that it is boring.
what? it says the man is 'uncool'. don't know where you're getting flavourless from lmao
not delicious would be 맛없습니다. This is 멋없습니다. 맛 vs 멋. 재미없습니다 would be "not interesting", or "boring". 멋없습니다 is not cool
As the word 남자 ends with a vowel i.e. ㅏ. If it ended with a constant sound then you would use 은. It just has to do with how easy it would be to pronounce words. why they are using a subject marker here such as 가 instead of a topic marker like 는 is a whole other story that i am not sure about.
