안녕하세요. Hello, everyone. Last time we studied how to express one's actions and movements in detail, paying special attention to the object of a sentence. In this unit, we will study how to describe the appearance and characteristics of a person. Why don't we talk about our friends? Do you have many friends? What are they like? You will first watch a video where two people are talking about a friend. What did they say in the video? The woman asked, 여자 친구가 어때요? What is your girlfriend like? And the man answered, 여자 친구가 예뻐요. My girlfriend is pretty. Please listen again. 여자 친구가 어때요? 여자 친구가 예뻐요. What are your friends like? Today, let's practice the expressions that describe the appearance and characteristics of a friend. First, let's study the vocabulary. 바쁘다 means to be busy. 바쁘다. 크다 means to be big in size. 크다. 예쁘다 means to be pretty. 예쁘다. 기쁘다 is to be glad or delighted. 기쁘다. 슬프다 means to be sad. 슬프다. 아프다 is to be sick. 아프다. Now, listen and repeat. Let's check your vocabulary. Look at the picture and say the words in Korean. Very good. Now, let's study today's grammar. In this unit, you will learn how 으 verbs in Korean conjugate when they meet -어요/아요. 으 verbs are action verbs and descriptive verbs that have a verb stem ending in the vowel 으, like the verbs we just practiced, 바쁘다, 예쁘다 and 크다. The verb stem's final 으 in these verbs is dropped when combined with -어요/아요. So, if the vowel before 으 is 아, or 오, use -아요. If the vowel is something other than 아 or 오, use -어요. Let's first look at what happens when 으 verbs meet -아요. In 바쁘다, the 으 in 바쁘 drops and the vowel before 으 which is 아 here, meets -아요. So, from 바쁘다, 으 drops and we get 바빠요. Likewise, in 고프다, 으 drops, and the vowel 오 before 으 is combined with -아요. 고파요. When the vowel before 으 is something other than 아 or 오, use -어요. For example, in 예쁘다, 으 is dropped, and -어요 is added to form 예뻐요. Then how about the verb, 크다? Yes, first, 으 in the verb stem 크 is dropped. And -어요 is added. 커요. Now it's time to practice. Well done. Now listen to and answer the questions. You can talk more about your friend using what we have learned so far. Let's watch a video clip first. The question was, 여자 친구가 어때요? What is your girlfriend like? And the man answered, 여자 친구가 예뻐요. My girlfriend is pretty. Here, 여자 means girl. Then, how do you say boy or man in Korean? Right. It's 남자. Now listen and repeat after me. This time, please answer my questions. Excellent. Now, ask your friend a question and let them answer. Well done. Now, can you answer my question? 친구가 어때요? Good. Your answer could be 친구가 예뻐요. or 친구가 바빠요. Are you able to answer questions asking about your friends in Korean now? Next, you will watch some dialogues using the expressions we learned. Listen carefully. How was it? In this unit, you learned how to describe the appearance and characteristics of your friend. In the following unit, we will study referential expressions used when indicating a specific person or thing. Thank you. See you. 고맙습니다. 안녕히 계십시오.
