I don't. I mean I know about that iconic "Jimin, you got no jams" but I don't know how its related to this. Could you tell me?
When RM says that it's a mix of english and korean. I believe in korean there's a phrase used in texting or informal messaging that 노잼 which is a combination of the english 'no' and Korean 잼 which is the word for fun. So RM (bilingual king as he is) just mashed the two together. (I read this in a youtube comment so sorry if nor 100% accurate, please correct me if im wrong!)
I have too much jam jimin you can come to me ya and get all members with you
Lies! I mean unless it's a textbook for history, then i wholeheartedly agree.
These adverbs are so annoying! I can't tell them apart. It seems like cool, stylish, interesting, and delicious are all the same thing and there's two words for them.
No, because there is a difference and that is for example if u want to say "cool", it is 멋었습니다 And u want to say "delicious" or "tasty", it is 맛었슴니다 If you can't see the difference, look at the second letter of each word, and then u can find what will make u look for a difference
은/는 topic marker 이/가 subject marker
은/는 is more specific like "the" 이/가 subject marker is more general like "a"
I'm not 100% sure though, so try researching a bit more
Actualky 는 and 은 are topic markers and the other two are subject maerkers, i recommend searching a little bit more about them, they are difficult for me aswell to completely understand
It says the book is boring but theres no option for boring. Just uninteresting. Is it trying to confuse me. X_X sigh
what defference between "there is no" and "is not" in the word's mean "없습니다" ???
Late reply but if you still want help, I believe ibnida is to be and anibnida is to not be. 없습니다 would be there is none.
I put that the book is not interesting instead of the book is not interesting and my answer was marked wrong. Uninteresting and not interesting are literally the same thing. It wouldn't be a problem but its for a placement test TT
Boring and uninteresting has same meaning,so why its say my answer is not correct
I wrote the book is not interesting....but is was not accepted by duolingo...the said that the correct answer was the book is uninteresting..what is the major difference between not interesting and un interesting?
Popular opinion:- if bts was a book then books are interesting and going school will be more fun
I thought it is "The book is not funny." I can't really understand the difference between "Fun" and "Funny" in Korean. D:
And now you'll understand when Koreans misuse "fun" and "funny" all the time in English.
Now it translate..... The book is not funny. That is what I put down and got it wrong..... Please make me understand.
Funny and fun arent the same, something funny might make you laugh but something fun probably wont, it will make you have a good time but not laugh, you cant call a joke fun or call and activity funny if you ment you had a good time with it. My explanation might not have been enough, so try searching their meanings and try comparing and contrasting
I put the book is not interesting . The answer came as the book is uninteresting . Why ? Please tell me what the difference is I don't understand what just happened ?
"The book is not fun to read" I would translate it like this = 이 책을 읽는 게 재미가 없다
책이 재미없습니다 The correct answer for Duolingo is "The book is uninteresting". However, from what I know, -습니다 is either to be (at a location), to exist or to have. If the book is uninteresting, may I know why it isn't 책이 재미입니다? This puzzles me so much ._.
To make the affirmation that something is interesting you should always include '있다' (재미있다 - or formal version 재미있습니다 - informal 재미있어 ) The opposite of 있다 is 없다 to say it isn't interesting. 이다 -> 입니다 (To be) 있다 -> 있습니다 ('there is'/'there are'/'to exist')
So basically 재미 means 'interesting' and 없습니다 or 잇습니다 chooses whether it indeed is or is not??
Yeah, 있습니다 (or 있다 in its infinitive form) means to exist or be present, while 없습니다 (or 없다 in its infinitive form) means to not exist or to be absent. So adding any noun before one of these verbs means that either that noun is there/present/extant or not there/absent/nonexistent.
Is boring was the translation of the korean characters, but was marked incorrect when used.
I wrote "book is not interesting" but he give it wrong!?? Can anyone explain why!!??
Why The Book is not interesting incorrect?? Can you please tell me I am confused
why question is why is end with 책이 not 책은 while 신문 is with 신문은 and not 신문이.
