Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
한국어로는 '비행기를 놓쳤다'라고 하기 때문에 직역해서 "I missed the airplane"이라고 말하기 쉽습니다. 하지만 영어에서는 탑승 예정이던 항공편을 놓쳤을 때 "I missed my flight"이라고 표현합니다. "airplane"은 물리적인 비행기 자체를 가리키고, "flight"은 예약된 항공편을 의미하므로 상황에 맞는 단어를 사용해야 합니다.
한국어에서는 '티켓을 변경하다'라고 표현하지만, 영어에서 항공권 일정을 바꿀 때는 "rebook"이라는 단어를 사용하는 것이 더 정확하고 자연스럽습니다. "Change my ticket"도 통하긴 하지만, 공항이나 항공사 카운터에서는 "rebook"을 쓰면 훨씬 명확하게 의사소통할 수 있습니다.
