Hi! 안녕하세요. This is Admin Na. And today I’m going to talk about the causative expression.

What is the causative expression?

The causative expression is having the subject make another person do a motion or act.

Ex)

  • Heedo makes Seongyu laugh.: 희도가 선규를 웃긴다.

The causative expression can be divided into two, the derivative causative expression, and the syntactic causative expression. And the derivative causative can be divided again, into a causative verb by the causative expression and a causative verb by ‘-시키다’.


1. Suffix

A causative verb by the causative expression: The stem of a main verb+causative suffix ‘-이-, -히-, -리, -기-, -우-, -구-, -추-’

Ex)

  • A mother feeds Kyung-soo.: 어머니가 경수에게 밥을 먹인다.
  • Young-mi woke her sleeping sister up.: 영미가 자고 있는 언니를 깨웠다.
  • The mother dressed the child.: 엄마가 아이에게 옷을 입히었다.
  • Young-hee put the baby in a chair.: 영희가 아기를 의자에 앉혔다.
  • Feed a bird for food.: 새에게 모이를 먹이다.
  • Mother Dresses Hee-Leong.: 엄마가 희령이에게 옷을 입히다.
  • The woodcutter hides the deer behind the tree.: 나무꾼이 사슴을 나무 뒤에 숨기다.


2. 시키다

A causative verb by ‘-시키다’: Noun+’-시키다’

Ex)

  • The police stopped the car.: 경찰이 차를 정지시켰다.
  • The doctor hospitalized Min-Kyung.: 의사가 민경이를 입원시켰다.
  • pollute오염시키다.


3. -게 하다

The syntactic expression, the causative verb by ‘-게 하다’: The stem of a main verb+’-게 하다’

Ex)

  • My mother made my brother eat.: 어머니께서 동생에게 밥을 먹게 하셨다.
  • The mother made the child wear clothes.: 엄마가 아이에게 옷을 입게 하였다.
  • Hyuna let the bird fly.: 현아가 새를 날게 하였다.
  • To cause to eat.: 먹게 하다.


Causative verb

A verb that indicates that the subject of a sentence does not act on his own, but causes others to act.

Ex)

  • 속이다
  • 넓히다
  • 울리다
  • 숨기다
  • 피우다
  • 솟구다
  • 늦추다

A ’-이우-’ combination of two causative suffixes makes a causative verb.

Ex)

  • 재우다
  • 태우다
  • 키우다


Thank you all for reading this post! I really hope this was helpful for you, and always stay safe:D

Hi! 안녕하세요. This is Admin Na. And today I’m going to talk about the present tense.

What is the present tense?

The present tense is a tense that coincides with the time when the event occurs.

Pre-final ending ‘-ㄴ-/-는-’: 

Expresses the current tense in combination with verbs.

Ex)

  • I play basketball with my friends.: 나는 친구들과 농구를 한다.
  • A sleeping baby: 잠을 자는아기
  • He was proud of his father, a doctor.: 그는 의사인 아버지를 자랑스러워했다.
  • Sunwoo drinks water.: 선우는 물을 마신다.
  • Sung Eun is eating.: 성은이가 밥을 먹는다.


No pre-final ending: 

In adjectives or descriptive postposition, the current tense can be expressed without a pre-final ending.

Ex)

  • The weather is hot today.: 오늘은 날씨가 덥다.
  • My brother is a college student.: 우리 형은 대학생이다.


A modifier form ending ‘-는’: 

Expresses the current tense in combination with verbs.

Ex)

  • I am looking at my brother who is eating.: 밥을 먹는 동생을 보고 있다.
  • The cup rice that Jimin eats is really delicious.: 지민이가 먹는 컵밥은 정말 맛있다.
  • I’m studying for the exam.: 시험공부 하는나.


A modifier form ending ‘-(으)ㄴ’: 

To express the present tense in combination with adjectives or narrative ending.

Ex)

  • I feel good when I see pretty flowers.: 예쁜 꽃을 보면 기분이 좋다.
  • Pretty Jimin is coming to the academy.: 예쁜 지민이가 학원에 온다.
  • Minji is a pretty child.: 민지는 예쁜아이이다.


Time adverbs representing the present: 

‘오늘’, ‘지금’ etc.

Ex)

  • I read a book in the library now.: 나는 지금 도서관에서 책을 읽는다.
  • Jonghee studies hard today.: 종희는 오늘도 열심히 공부를 한다.
  • It’s windy now.: 지금 바람이 분다.
  • The train is leaving now.: 기차가 지금출발한다.


REVIEW TEST

1. What is the present tense?

A: The present tense is a tense that coincides with the time when the event occurs.

2. Write an example that includes the pre-final ending ‘-ㄴ-/-는-’

A: I play basketball with my friends. etc(you can make tons of them!)

3. In adjectives or descriptive postposition, can the current tense be expressed without a pre-final ending?

A: 0

Thank you all for reading this post! I really hope this was helpful for you, and also, there is a previous post of ours introducing the pre-final ending(which would help you understand the Korean present tense more easily)! So if you’re interested, I think you should check it out! Always stay safe:D Jojal-jojal Korea is always pulling for you!!
