Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정

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

❌ I am a hard-working person with hard-working habits and a hard-working attitude.
✅ I am a diligent person with industrious habits and a dedicated attitude.

한국어에서는 '성실한'이라는 단어를 반복해도 자연스럽지만, 영어 커버레터에서는 같은 단어를 반복하면 어휘력이 부족해 보입니다. 시소러스(유의어 사전)를 활용하여 diligent, industrious, dedicated 등 다양한 동의어로 바꿔 쓰면 훨씬 전문적이고 세련된 인상을 줄 수 있습니다.
