"자기 소개를 해!"

Translation: Introduce yourself!

[CF00l]

自己 紹介를 해!

Why does it say 자기 means honey (im guessing its just a term of endearment) but then marks "Honey, introduce yourself" as wrong?

[Shlomo_]

"Honey, introduce yourself" would be 자기, 자기 소개를 해. That's because 자기 also means "self".

If it was someone calling out to their boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband, they would have to say 자기야. If I called your name, 조나스야. My name, 다니엘아. Then continue the sentence.

So, when I first ran across this I thought the same thing. I looked into it and what I gathered was that the term 자기 when used as like a pet name for couples pulls from the definition of 자기 meaning "self". Basically when you use it, you're equating your significant other with yourself; they're your other half or soulmate.

I'm not sure how they end up with weird word translations, but 자기소개 自己紹介 is self+introduction.
