"학생들이 일어서니?"

Translation: Do the students stand up?

[personagrande]

Should "do students stand up?" be accepted?

[Winston298006]

It would be the same in Korean, I believe, so yes.

[Gooseberries01]

It is accepted now

Just curious, can we further break down 일어나다 and 일어서다? It seems to me that 일어 means something.

Yep! 일다 means "happen; rise", 나다 means "be born, come out, grow, spring up" and 서다 means "stand"

[ramy02]

Thank you!

[viswarkarman]

Come on! Why is "up" required? They going to stand "down"?

[josueetcom]

서다 - to stand.
일어서다 - to stand up.

I suppose it's to contrast between someone who is just standing there, and someone who was sitting and is now standing
