Billy Go’s Beginner Korean Course | #69: Describing Verbs
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 мар 2021
- In this lesson you’ll learn about how to describe verbs. Specifically, you’ll learn how to use “nominalization” forms to change action verbs into nouns, so they can be described using descriptive verbs. You’ll learn two of the most common forms for nominalization, as well as one additional form.

빌리 씨의 가르침이 정말 재미있어요 👍
Ah! Thank you so much for this lesson!
You're so welcome! It's a re-upload just to fix a small typo :)
빌리 씨.. 감사합니다.. lots of love from India.. 🙏❤️
I’m always fascinated when coming across similar sounding words in Chinese and Korean, Is 중요하다 from 重要？😊 so similar in sound and meaning

Hey Billy. I assume contractions can be used without any restrictions with this form? For example, if I wanted to say “As for me, learning Korean is difficult but very fun”, I could say 저는 한국어를 배우는 것이 (or 게) 어렵지만 아주 재미있어요? Thanks!
Yes, 것이 can become 게 in any sort of colloquial speech (not essays or important things like that).
Hi, Billy. When you say only the 기 form is used for making a list, do you mean just a stand-alone list, or a list within a complete sentence? In other words if I say, “ Reading, working, and eating are the only things to do at school,” can I use the 는 것 form?
Thanks in advance!
Any time you're simply listing things. But if you're saying "I like to do reading, eating, and working" then that's not a list, but a sentence meaning "I like to read, eat, and work" and would probably use the ~는 것 form instead (as I mention at the end notes of this video).
Hi Billy,
I came across a way of the 는 것 form being used in Duolingo:
A child that watches movies -> 영화를 보는 아이
I noticed that the 것이/게 was omitted here. Does this mean that if you're attaching a noun directly after the nominalised verb, you can omit the 것?
That's a different form. In this course you'll learn about it more in detail in a later lesson (#90).
Hi Billy, since this nominalisation form can only be used with action verbs, how can you describe descriptive verbs? Eg something like "I like being kind"?
You would use an Action Verb instead. For example, you could use a verb for "to act kind," or "to do service to others" or "to speak in a kind manner," or whatever it is you mean specifically. Or you'd just change the sentence to something else entirely in order to use a Descriptive Verb without having to use this form.
At 7:28, I notice that 살다 becomes 삶 and not 살음. Is this an exception when the verb stem ends with ㄹ? So do we just attach ㅁ if the verb stem ends with ㄹ? And if so, are there any other exceptions with this nominalization form?
Thank you for any help
You can simply memorize it as-is :)
What is the 가 used for in 배우기가/연습하기가?
It's the subject marker (이/가).
For verbs that are made up of a noun+하다, can you just use the noun part and get the same meaning. To take an example from the video, can you just take 수영 and describe that instead of 수영하는 것, or does the second one put more emphasis on the actual 'doing' more or something like that?
Yes, 하다 means "to do" so it would emphasize the doing. You don't always need it, if the word works by itself too as a "thing." But 하다 is often used and sounds natural whenever you're talking about "doing" something.
@@GoBillyKorean Thanks so much!! :)
What about 사다? Will it be buying same as living? 사는 것 😅
Yes, both would be 사는, but you'll always know which by the context. It won't be confusing :)
Hi Billy. Can these nominalization rules be applied to descriptive verbs as well ?
For ex : if I have to tell 'Being smart is important', can I say 똑똑하기가 중요해요 or 똑속하는 게 중요해요 ?
No, because those conjugations are only for action verbs. Instead, the vocabulary or grammar would change to something else - but there's no specific one form you'd need to use with a descriptive verb. This is because English and Korean don't translate 1:1 like that. For example, one way is you could say "You have to be smart" using the ~야 되다 or ~야 하다 form.
@@GoBillyKorean Ok. But then while using 때문 form 기 is used even for descriptive verbs. Am I right?
Like in lesson 71, 저는 이 회사에서 중요한 사람이기 때문에 항상 바빠요.
@@shwetham0693 Yes, if I don't specify in this lesson, feel free to use other forms with any verbs :)
@@GoBillyKorean Yes. Thank you so much Billy ✨
A bit confusing lesson that I'm not familiar with. But Thank You
I’m confused, is this in all cases where a verb is in the center? Meaning if I were to say 저는 공부하는 게 좋아해요 it would be that and not 저는 공부하를 좋아해요?
You could say it as ~하는 것을 (걸) 좋아해요, but 게 is 것이.
What is the purpose of the particle 지 in 중요하지 ? Sentence: 네, 중요하지만 노는 것도 중요하지 않아요?
That's the grammar ~지만, which there is a lesson about in this series :)
Hey Billy
Good evening
I didn't understand the two examples( 는 것 ) In frist 저는 수영하는 것을 좋아해요 and in second 여기서 한국어를 배우는 것이 어려워요 .
Why don't we use 것이 everytime ?
I recommend watching this course in order. There's a previous lesson about the Object Marker which explains why you'd use that particle. But it also just takes time and practice to learn. ruclips.net/video/KX9AA1f5c4U/видео.html
@@GoBillyKorean I watched every lesson in order and after your suggestion I re-watch this lesson again . I got your point but still I always confused about 이 and 가 , in the second example - 여기서 한국어를 배우는 것이 어려워요. Why 것이 Instead of 것 ? 배우다 is a verb .
것 form is conjugated?
것 is a noun, and not a verb, so it doesn't conjugate.
Then how 배우다 become 배우는 게?
There are other words also which is same
@@yashashrihuddar2547 게 is just 것 + 이 (subject marker).
@@GoBillyKorean thank you.
isn't 는 거 more natural than 는것 ...or i might be wrong xD
Yes, I teach how to use 거 instead of 것 in another lesson in this series.
