"Most of us want to go."

Translation: 우리 대부분 가고 싶어요.

[kjessweet]

대 comes from the hanja 'big' and 부분 means 'part' so 대부분 means 'majority' or 'the most part of something'

[SvedishPlumber]

Why is 대부분 after the noun it describes?

[wintertriangles]

It can come before or after. I haven't noticed if it happens more one way or another though. If it comes before you can add ~의, like 대부분의 지역 (most of the region), but as usual the article is often dropped as well.

[the_crait]

Doesn't Korean put descriptions of quanity after the noun, such as using numbers followed by a counter word? I think 분 is also a counter word, so maybe this is the same.

[josueetcom]

It looks like it reads "we want to go for the most part" where 대부분 reads as "for the most part"

[BobaBunny5]

If 대부분 comes after the noun, do you not have to use a particle on the noun anymore?

[arimk]

Why is "우리는 대부분 가고 싶어요" wrong? Can you not put a topic marker after 우리?
