Unit 2-8 / Part 2
Many parents these days are concerned about their children spending too
much time on their computers. The level of relationships and communication
kids get decreases significantly, as well as the amount of necessary
experience with reality outside home. On top of their maturity, physical health
is also one of the concerns. Spending too much time on computers does not
help kids who are supposed to be physically active and grow in good
shape.

Korean Trap! / 한국인 실수 교정
Common mistakes Korean speakers make.
한국인이 자주 하는 실수를 알아봅시다.
한국어에서는 '컴퓨터를 사용하는 데 시간을 보내다'라고 할 때 '~하는 데'라는 표현 때문에 'to use'를 쓰기 쉽습니다. 하지만 영어에서 'spend time'은 반드시 동명사(-ing)와 함께 씁니다. 'spend + 시간 + -ing'가 올바른 패턴이므로 'spend too much time using / playing / watching'처럼 사용하세요.
