Conversation Practice
Sam: It's that time of the year again. Performance evaluation time.
Jane: I know, and this time I'm going to ask for a raise when my meeting comes around, i'm gonna get whats coming to me.
Sam: You sound pretty sure of yourself Jane, but management is always a tough cookie when it comes to uping people's pay, you know.
Jane: You don't have to remind me. They turned me down last time I asked for a raise, but this time I'm going to stick to my guns.
Sam: What makes you so certain you'll get a boost in salary?
Jane: I just know in my heart that the work I've been doing this year is a cut above, plus I have taken on a load of extra responsibilities in the past six months. They have to give me what I'm due.
Sam: Well I hope it all work out. The best of luck to you.
Jane: Thanks Sam.
Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
"Stick to my guns"는 항상 stick to + my/your/his guns 형태로 써야 합니다. 한국어의 "고집을 부리다"처럼 하나의 덩어리 표현이라 전치사 "to"를 빠뜨리거나 "guns"를 단수로 쓰면 의미가 전달되지 않습니다. 또한 "stick my gun"이라고 하면 "총을 꽂다"라는 전혀 다른 뜻이 되어 버리니 주의하세요.
