Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
❌ "I got a big benefit from selling my stocks."
✅ "I made a big profit from selling my stocks."
한국어에서는 '이익'이라는 단어를 폭넓게 사용하지만, 영어에서는 투자나 사업을 통해 번 돈은 반드시 'profit'이라고 합니다. 'Benefit'은 건강보험 혜택이나 운동의 장점처럼 금전적이지 않은 이점에 주로 쓰입니다. 주식이나 투자 수익을 이야기할 때는 항상 'profit', 'return', 또는 'gain'을 사용하세요.
