Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정

Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.

❌ "I'm sorry, can you say it one more time?"
✅ "Sorry, could you say that again?" / "Could you repeat that, please?"

한국어의 "한 번 더 말해 주세요"를 직역하면 "one more time"을 쓰게 되는데, 자연스러운 영어에서는 "say that again" 또는 "repeat that"을 씁니다. 또한 대화 중에는 "Can you"보다 "Could you"가 더 공손하고 자연스럽습니다.

Discussion

Discuss with your teacher.

  1. Do you think it's better to speak with some mistakes or to stay quiet until you can say it perfectly? Why?
    실수를 하더라도 말하는 것이 나을까요, 아니면 완벽하게 말할 수 있을 때까지 조용히 있는 것이 나을까요? 그 이유는요?
  2. What are some good strategies to keep a conversation going when you run out of things to say?
    대화 중 할 말이 떠오르지 않을 때 대화를 이어갈 수 있는 좋은 방법에는 어떤 것들이 있을까요?
  3. How is having a conversation in English different from having one in Korean? Think about politeness, body language, or how people take turns speaking.
    영어로 대화하는 것과 한국어로 대화하는 것은 어떻게 다른가요? 공손함, 몸짓, 또는 말하는 순서 등을 생각해 보세요.
