V-더라니

-더라니 is yet another cause-effect grammar point.  It is used when in retrospect the result of a situation now seems obvious or predictable.

Imagine: after a huge dinner at a buffet, you wake up the next morning to a terrible stomachache.  You complain to your friend, but they are less than sympathetic.  They point out to you that, looking back on the previous night, you had stuffed your face, so your stomachache is the obvious result of that feast.  Your conversation in Korean might go something like this:

가: 오늘 아침에 배탈이 났어요.  I had a stomachache this morning.

나: 어제 뷔페에서 과식하더라니. (Looking back on it) You did overeat at the buffet yesterday.

Examples:

내가 너 시험 성적이 나쁠 줄 알았어. 공부 안 하고 계속 놀더라니. I knew your test score would be bad.  (Looking back on it) You didn’t study and just fooled around.

컴퓨터가 안 돼요. 고장 났나 봐요. 지난 주부터 이상하더라니. The computer isn’t working. It must be broken.  (Looking back on it) It’s been acting up since last week.

네가 감기에 걸리는 게 놀랄만한 일이 아니야. 이 추운 날씨에 얇은 옷을 입고 다니더라니.  You getting sick isn’t a surprise.  (Looking back on it) You kept going out in light clothes.

Coupled with 어쩐지, -더라니 carries with it a sense of belated realization.  It is used when you have received information that explains an already known fact. The closest English translation for this usage would be “No wonder”.

Example:

길에서 산 티셔츠가 한번 빨고 나서 줄어들더라고요. 어쩐지 값이 싸더라니.  The t-shirt I bought off the street shrank after just one wash.  No wonder it was cheap.  

마이틀 씨가 이번에 승진해서 보너스를 많이 받았대요.  어쩐지 그동안 기분이 좋아 보이더라니.  They say that Michael received a huge bonus with his promotion.  No wonder he’s been in a good mood lately.

그 학생의 부모님이 부자래요. 어쩐지 명품옷만 입었더라니.  They say that student’s parents are rich.  No wonder he wore only brand name clothes.

꼴(이다)

koreangrumblings:

-꼴 is used in calculations when discussing a numerical average.  As such, it is attached only to numbers and numerically related nouns.

If a supermarket is offering 10 apples at 5,000 won each, then each apple would cost around 500 won, or 사과는 10 개에 5,000원이니까 한 개에 500원꼴이에요.

This grammar can be used at the end of a sentence as 꼴이다, or in the middle of a sentence in the form -꼴로.

Examples:

요즘 한국 사람들이 3명 중에 한명꼴로 암에 걸린대요.  They say that an average of 3 out of 1 Koreans have cancer.

친구가 30분에 한 번꼴로 전화해 대는 통에 귀찮아요.  I’m annoyed because my friend calls me (on average) once every 30 minutes.

이 귤은 1,000원에 12개예요.  한당 90원꼴인 셈이에요.  The tangerines are 12 for 1,000 won.  One is pretty much 90 won.

용인 에버 벚꽃 축제

진해벚꽃축제(Jinhae cherry blossom festival)가 너무 좋아서 또 다른 벚꽃 축제에 가고 싶었어요. 남자친구랑 집과 멀지 않은 용인에버벚꽃축제에 가기로 했어요. 에버랜드라서 사람 진짜 많을 줄 알았으니까 원래 안 가려고 했지만, 토요일 아침에 일어났을 때 날씨가 아주 좋고 남친이 벚꽃축제 가본 적이 없었어서 가기로 했어요. 즐거운 날이 됐어요.

Jinhae was so good that I was desperate to go to another cherry blossom festival. So this time I went with my boyfriend to Yongin Everland cherry blossom festival(용인에버벚꽃축제), which is a lot closer to where we live. We weren’t going to go at first because we thought there would be too many people since it’s next to Everland, but when we woke up on Saturday morning the weather was fantastic, and since my boyfriend had never been to a cherry blossom festival before we decided to go. I’m glad we did.

Hi! I saw your last post with the hashtag #readingpractice and Is that an app? I believe it is kakaotalk but I’m not sure

Hi! 🙂 Yeah the chatting app you see in the pictures is KakaoTalk.
The pictures aren’t mine though they’re from a Daum blog which you can see through the source link. Literally everyone here uses KakaoTalk and I often see screencaps of funny/noteworthy Kakao conversations which makes for good natural conversation #readingpractice.
