why is 50 pigs are so expensive wrong?

[Brett565243]

Too = 너무
So = 많이

Different meanings in English and Korean

[Staszek456]

많이, as an adverb, approximately means "very", "many" and "a lot".
많이 공부하다 - to study a lot; 연필이 많이 있다 - there are many/lots of pencils (as a side note:《연필이 많다》is a bit different way to convey the same meaning).
너무 basically means "too (much)", but can also be used as a mean of extra emphasis, in which case it would roughly mean "so" and "very".
너무 예쁘다 - very/so pretty
There is also word《참(으로)》which can be used similarily.
참 예쁘다 - really/so/trully pretty
The difference is that 너무 is a bit of an intended overexaggeration ("too pretty"), while 참 rather simply means "really", "so (much)", "trully". Well, at least this is how a non-native speaker understands it, so take it with a minimal grain of salt.

Try buying 40. Probably cheaper.

[GiovanniSantucci]

I'm surprised I don't see the debate over whether is too expensive should be allowed in place of are too expensive.

[Indi.grt]

Poor farmer

[JgtdQ]

Depends which pig shop you`re buying from. Kmart often has sales on pigs. Next time try there.

[Jweg61]

Should the English translation of this be "Fifty pigs is too expensive."?

It seems like, given the phrasing, that the "fifty" part is what is too expensive. As in, ten pigs might be a reasonable amount to buy.

[EowWWwwWww]

How do you pronounce 쉰?

[dipagssi]

Officially "swin". But actually pronounced as "shwin" with a soft 'w'.

[Supertuidi]
