i thought of the same thing ^_^

[Sokutsu]

Jimin's voice is a hundred times sweeter to learn this word than the speaking robot :") (with no offence toward you useful speaking robot ;)

[XxcherrybombxX]

:.)

[Iseul-i-yeyo]

That's how I knew this word!

[antoine.1999]

Is 이 part of the word 'cat' or is it a subject/topic marker?

[Haruka-13]

Is part of the word

[doug.v.allen]

so "고양이" and then "고양이가 동물입니다" ?

[zizey]

네. 맞아요
Yes, that's right.

[junhoon]

Oh, I got confused with 맛있어요 and thought you were saying the cat is delicious and got scared.

[Brook488622]

Why do you put "입 니 다" at the end of sentences?

[AnaYepes]

I think that he's saying that a cat is an animal, so 입니다 is the to be form for it
(sorry for my english)

I thought that "고양이" could also translate to "cats", but it was marked as incorrect. Since there is no marker in the word "고양이" to indicate that we're talking about a specific cat or specific group of cats, this means that we're speaking about a cat or cats in general. Can someone please explain?

[HunterAmos1]

"고양이" means cat by itself. the "이" at the end doesnt act as a marker in this case. If you wanted to say "a cat" in a specific case, it would translate to 고양이가. Hope this helped!

[viklik2]

Thank you for your help, but I'm still wondering if "고양이" could translate to "cats"?

[JOrlando3]

I had the same question because the plural marker is optional, so even if there is no plural marker, it could still be plural, right?

[BangtansKo]

This just reminds me of 'Serendipity'♡

[CoolStuffYT]

I thought 고양이 was more like "kitten".

[nleconte]

고양이 새끼 would probably be used to denote a kitten specifically.

[saintdais]

how would you pronounce this?

[CatalinaEs213575]

The romanization of this would be, go-yang-i

[ButterflyF6]

Meow!

[DrKahl]

Usually having 이 at the end of a noun makes it "the ___", is the 이 a part of the word "cat" or is it saying "the cat". If it's the former, how would you say "the cat"? Cheers

[LillianWin9]

Why it sounds like she's saying granny

[TimeeW]

Haha, on my keyboard I was swiping the word so I put car and got it wrong.

[SuzyOfTheQ]

I swiped "car" and got it wrong too!

[AnaPaulaVa778024]

Adoreo

[xixi441115]

I accidentally typed "car" as a typo :'(

[AltheaDela5]
