Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정

Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.

❌ "Our restaurant is doing a roaring business these days."
✅ "Our restaurant is doing a roaring trade these days."

한국어로 '장사가 잘 된다'를 영어로 옮길 때 'doing good business'라고 직역하기 쉽습니다. 하지만 영어 관용 표현은 do a roaring trade로, 반드시 trade와 함께 써야 자연스럽습니다. 비슷하게 'hard-nosed'를 '코가 단단한'으로 직역하면 의미를 놓치게 되니, 비즈니스 관용 표현은 통째로 외우는 것이 중요합니다.
