 ๐ŸŒท Essential Korean Spring Expressions

๋ด„ ๋‚ ์”จ ํ‘œํ˜„ (Spring Weather Expressions)

  • ๋ด„์ด์—์š”(Bomieyo)→ It is spring

  • ๋”ฐ๋œปํ•ด์š”(Ttatteuthaeyo)→ It’s warm
  • ๊ฝƒ ๊ตฌ๊ฒฝ์„ ๊ฐ€์š”(Kkot gu-gyeong-eul gayo)→ Let’s go see the flowers
  • ๋ด„ ์†Œํ’์„ ๊ฐ€์š”(Bom sopung-eul gayo)→ Let’s go on a spring picnic
  • ๋ฒš๊ฝƒ์ด ํ”ผ์—ˆ์–ด์š”(Beotkkoti pieosseoyo)→ The cherry blossoms have bloomed

Grammar Point: "~์ด์—์š”/์˜ˆ์š”" (It is...)

In the phrase "Bom-ie-yo" (๋ด„์ด์—์š”), the ending "~์ด์—์š”" is used to say "It is [Noun]." Since "Bom" (Spring) ends with a consonant (๋ฐ›์นจ), we attach "~์ด์—์š”." This is a fundamental sentence structure for beginners!
