All About Spelling and Spacing

Guji (it's a shame), Munan (it's okay), Eoieopda (it's ridiculous), Myeonguihoeson (defamation), Walking a dog you don't know (it's better not to know), Work, Do this, Do that, Trust me, Golita-bun (it's a shame)... These are examples from a surprising collection of spellings that has recently become a hot topic on the Internet.
It's shocking and absurd to see such a notation, but it makes me realize the importance of spelling when I hear that so many people actually know and use it that way.


In fact, it is likely that you think you know Korean well, but when it comes to actually writing, there are many things that are confusing.
In particular, as we become more accustomed to abbreviated text messages and internet terms, the number of people who have difficulty with spelling and spacing has increased.


Feeling sorry for this reality, Korean language expert Bae Sang-bok of JoongAng Ilbo published a book titled “Korean Spelling Class,” which is an easy-to-read spelling book.
This book explains the basic principles of spelling and spacing that you must know in an easy and fun way through everyday examples and examples, rather than difficult and complicated theories.
In particular, 100 review problems are included so you can check your skills by solving them yourself.
In an era where spelling is considered a form of culture, let's elevate the quality of our writing and speech with "Korean Spelling Class."

“Have a baby soon.”
When texting a sick person, you should say, “Get well soon,” but surprisingly often people mistakenly write, “Get well soon.”
If you say 'Have a baby', it means to have a baby.
Telling a sick person to give birth quickly is bound to be absurd from the other person's perspective.
'Nataseyo' is a form in which 'nat', the stem of 'natda', is added to '~seoseyo', which indicates a polite request.
When a disease or injury is restored to its original state, it is not 'given birth' but 'cured'.

“We dated for two years.”
When looking at text messages or social media posts, you often see expressions like “I dated my girlfriend for two years,” “If there was a man like this, I would date him too,” and “I’ve been dating him since last year.”
If you break down '사겨타', it is a shortened form of '사기때', which is a combination of '사기다' and '때', which indicates the past.
So what does 'fraud' mean?
It is a form of ‘sagi (詐欺)’, which means to deceive others with bad tricks, with the descriptive ending ‘da’ attached.
Therefore, saying “I dated my girlfriend for two years” is similar to saying that the two years I spent with my girlfriend were a fraud.

“It’s fifty thousand won.”
The phrases we hear most often from cashiers at department stores and discount stores are expressions that use the word '~seyo', such as "50,000 won" or "100,000 won."
In the past, we rarely heard this kind of thing, but it has been increasing in number recently.
It seems that these words are used with the intention of expressing more politely than saying “It’s 50,000 won” or “It’s 100,000 won.”
Is this really an expression that shows more respect to the guest?
It is correct to use the word '~seyo' itself as a word that shows respect.
It is used in phrases such as “This is my mother” or “This is my teacher.”
However, as you can see from the example, the object of respect must be a person.
Objects cannot be objects of respect.
How funny would it be if someone said, “This is my laptop.”
