"나는 재미있는 게 있어."

Translation: I have something interesting.

[LiKenun]

• 나는: I (subject)
• 재미있는: interesting
• 게: thing (object)
• 있어: have

게 is a contraction of 것이.

I always see your comments and your breakdowns are a lifesaver. Thank you!

[maddycz]

I have an interesting crab!

[LiKenun]

That would be “나는 재미있는 게가 있어.”

[Transparentium]

True, but particles are often dropped, so it's an easy mistake to make.

[Autumn-Chills]

That's what I thought it was saying lol

[Igor242724]

There's a flying interesting crab

[koyangi_ine]

Girl, just run.

[KanKanMikan]

• 그개=그것이
• 이건=이것은
• 걸=것을
• 게=것이

ok maybe Korean is not that easy.....

[Idea_Dynamo]

This is a trap.

[vionysus]

게 means interesting?

[Demonym281]

재미있다 means interesting. 게 must mean 'thing' in casual speech I guess

[haobubble]

게 is a contraction of 것이

[iad58g]

Why is ‘I have an interesting one’ considered wrong?

[Igor242724]

It's correct, technically. It would be hard to think of all possible translations for this sentence, though

[haobubble]

Because there's actually no "one" in the sentence, it's 게, which means thing/something. "I have an interesting one" is incorrect, as that would be something like "나는 재미있는 한 개 있어." (I could be mistaken, but I hope that was helpful)

[iad58g]

In English one has a much wider range of meanings than the numeral 1 tends to have in languages: for instance, it can be an impersonal pronoun, as in ‘Everybody was given a book; most found them boring, but I have an interesting one’. I don't think 한 개 would be used in this context, and I'm wondering if 게 might. (I think Japanese would use の, which is very similar.)

[viswarkarman]

Duo already translated 게 to "one" in a previous exercise.
