Korean Vocabulary (Verbs)

                           Learning vocabulary is important so that you can make your own sentences are have small talks. Memorizing the verbs in Korean is the best idea to learn Korean language.

                           The verbs given below are divided into two parts i.e. verb stem and 다(da). You need to detach 다(da) and add a ending syllable, according to the syllable before 다(da).

                                 The verbs in this page are in dictionary form i.e. when you look for the meaning of the verbs you will find them in these form. But when you have to use them in sentence or while speaking the last syllable of the word is avoided. And instead of 다(da) other syllable is attached to the verb stem to make the word usable in sentence while speaking and writing.

 

Example: In the verb to go 가다(gada/kada), 가(ga/ka) and other syllable is used to make a verbal sentence.
