Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
❌ "Our company's selling amount increased by 20% this quarter."
✅ "Our company's revenue increased by 20% this quarter."
한국어에서 '매출액'을 직역하여 "selling amount"라고 하는 경우가 많습니다. 영어에서는 회사의 총 매출을 나타낼 때 revenue 또는 sales revenue라는 전문 용어를 사용합니다. "Selling amount"는 영어에서 자연스럽지 않은 표현이므로 반드시 revenue를 사용하세요.
