Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
❌ "I invested my money to stocks last month."
✅ "I invested my money in stocks last month."
한국어에서는 '주식에 투자하다'라고 하기 때문에 방향을 나타내는 'to'를 쓰기 쉽습니다. 하지만 영어에서 invest는 항상 전치사 'in'과 함께 씁니다. 'invest in stocks,' 'invest in bonds,' 'invest in real estate'처럼 기억하세요.
