"돼지는 산에서 스키를 타요."

Translation: The pig skis on the mountain.

[Adrienne_F]

why is 타요 used as the verb here? I understand that "ski" is the object, but i need help understanding why is it used with 타, instead of another verb...

[erudis]

타다 means to ride, so you use it when you ride a bike, a horse, a skate, or in this case, a ski.

[jaisaige]

Because to ski is 스키를 타다

[dagummace]

How about "a pig"?

[LeahAlmaStein]

why not "from the mountain"? how can you differentiate?

[lilyl195]

Why can't I say, "The pig rides skis on the mountain"? Doesn't "타요" mean ride??

[Charu653795]

Why not- the pig on the mountain skis??

[Duo_Euphoria]

That would be '산에 있는 돼지가 스키를 타요' i believe
