You need to include who you're talking to because Korean has ways of speaking accordingly since it's an honorific/contextual language.

From now on, I (and I ask others to do the same) won't translate English to Korean unless people state who they're talking to and/or what it's for... simply because I don't want to translate something too formally, too casually, etc and make you sound disrespectful or plain weird.

Examples:
"I am talking to a close friend that is the same age as me."
"This is to my uncle (who is married to my mother's sister.)"
"I am writing this on a message board to all the people there."
"This is for my grandmother."
"I am speaking to someone I'm not very familiar with. She is only a year older than me."

Etc.

Be as specific as possible. Korean is VERY picky when it comes to stuff like this.

thanks alot, this could help me

Yay! it's back! Thanks a lot Jaeho.

how do you say, "don't give him any?" I heard it from some show, and they said something like, "cheman jujiman." Can you write out the korean characters too please?
thanks.

HAHAHAHAH THAT WAS FROM YASHIM MAN MAN.. and MC Mong was copying Kwon Sang Woo.. hahha !!!

saying 'jaeman jujima' means 'don't give HIM any', emphasising HIM.
it basically means 'give everyone [it] but just not him'.
hahahahah.

'jujima' would mean 'dont give [him/her]'.
the him/her is implied.

Lol haha, yep, that was from yashim man man ^^ that show cracks me up.
What does "jaeman" mean if the him/her is implied and if "jujima" means "don't give [him/her]"?
It can't be "any" because "아무것도" = "any," right?

It would be really nice if this thread was pinned.

thanks.

Awesome. Glad to see this back <(*-*)>
Can I get this translated? I'll put up my attempt.

하얀 눈이 내리는 이 거리에서
On the white snow-covered path,
그대가 내게 해준 소중한 약속
You made an important promise to me
눈보다 하얀 사랑을 속삭이며
함께 하자고....
Whispering a white snow-like love, you said "Let's do this together" (am I connecting this wrong?) (what does 이며 do?)

Always 부족한 나였었지만
그대의 사랑이 나를 채워주고 있죠
Although I was always lacking (unsatisfied better?), your love fulfilled me
Snow flakes 하늘도 축복하네요
Even the snowflakes and sky are blessing (O_o?)
나의 전부인 그대를 너무 사랑해요
I love you [very much] with all my heart (I just said "with all my heart", it sounds like she's saying that... I'm not sure)

I feel silly asking this, but I still don't 100% get it. What's the difference between 을/를 and 은/는? The way I understand it is, for example, 나를 would be "to me" or "with me (to a degree)" and 나는 "I am [blank]".

And I have a sound question. One one of the websites (teenkorean I believe), they pronounce the sound 외 and 왜 differently and I grew up pronouncing the two the same. Is there a difference or am I hearing wrong?

Does this make sense or should I explain a bit more?

Are you comfortable with the difference between 은/는 and 이/가 though?

This is pretty random..

My friend was writing my name in Japanese (Rashidah) the other day and i just wanted to know if its possible to write a foreign name in Korean.

I think I got it. So would this be correct?

우리는 유미를 주길거야
We're gonna kill Yumi

"We" being the topic, talking about us and "Yoomi" being the object, the one we will kill. Correct? And when I say this, it's safe to drop the 를?

이/가 I just realized I don't fully get either lol. Does it show ownership or something? My mom says that when she's going to someone's house, like "하늘이 집에서..."

Thanks!

Roughly speaking, "은/는" is a topic marker, and "이/가" is a subject marker. The topic is often the same as the subject, but not necessarily. The topic can be anything that a speaker wants to talk about (It can be an object, location or any other grammatical element). In this sense, it is similar to the English expressions, "As for ~" or "Speaking of ~."
저는 학생입니다. I am a student.
(As for me, I am a student.)
한국어는 재미있어요. Korean is fun.
(Speaking of Korean, it's fun.)

Basic Differences Between 은/는 and 이/가

"은/는" is used to mark something that has already been introduced into the conversation, or is familiar with both a speaker and a listener. (proper nouns, genetic names etc.) "이/가" is used when a situation or happening is just noticed or newly introduced. See the following example.
옛날에 어느 할아버지가 살았습니다. 그 할아버지는 정말로 친절했습니다. Once upon a time, there lived a certain old man. He was very kind.

In the first sentence, "할아버지" is introduced for the first time. It is the subject, not the topic. The second sentence describes about "할아버지" that is previously mentioned. "할아버지" is now the topic, and is marked with "은/는 " instead of "이/가."

은/는 as Contrast

Beside being a topic marker, "은/는" is used to show contrast or to emphasize the subject.
사과는 먹지만 오렌지는 안 먹어요.
I eat apples, but I don't eat oranges.

The thing being contrasted may or may not stated, but with this usage, the contrast is implied.
그 책은 읽지 않았어. I didn't read that book
(though I read this one).

Particles such as "에," "에서," "에게" and etc can be combined with "은/는" (double particles) to show contrast.
서울에는 갔지만 부산에는 안 갔습니다.
I went to Seoul, but I didn't go to Busan.
이 방에서는 담배를 피우지 마세요.
Please don't smoke in this room
(but you may smoke in that room).

Whether "은/는" indicates a topic or a contrast, it depends on the context.

이/가 with Question Words

When a question word such as "who" and "what" is the subject of a sentence, it is always followed by "이/가," never by "은/는." To answer the question, it also has to be followed by "이/가."
누가 와요? Who is coming?
요코가 와요. Yoko is coming.
무엇이 좋아요? What do you like?
그것이 좋아요. I like that.

이/가 as Emphasis

"이/가" is used for emphasis, to distinguish a pe
