Remember your topic particle?
'는'
Well the particle 은 has the same exact function butonly one of them can be used in a given function.
는 &은 are both topic particles
But
Kai는 학생이에요 is correct
Kai은 학생이에요 is wrong.
English analogy.
a boy (you use 'a')
but
an elephant (you use 'an')
'A' before a consonant
'An' before a vowel.
This is similar to Korean.
는 after a vowel
은 after a consonant
D.O: Is everything starting to get harder? Don't worry oranges you will start to get familiar with this.
Example One.
Kai는 학생이에요
Notice Kai ends with a vowel? so we use the particle 는
Example Two
Chen은 학생이에요
Notice CheN ends with a consonant? So we use the particle 은
Example Three
저는 학생이에요
Notice 저(Ja) ends with a vowel? So we use the particle 는
PRONOUNCITATION RULES!
Chen은 is written like that but pronounced like "Chen는"
ONLY PRONOUNCED BUT NOT WRITTEN!
Always remember
는 after a vowel
은 after a consonant
I learnt it easier by thinking that oppistes attract.
Example
Chen은 (The N (Consonant) is attracted to an oppisite which is a vowel)
Kai는 (The I(vowel) is attracted to an oppisite which is a consonant)
Does it sound weird? Do you understand?
You can use any method to help you remember or use mine.
Kyungsoo: BYE ORANGES!!DON'T FORGET WHAT I HAVE THAUGHT YOU!
