TTMIK Level 5 Lesson 17 PDF

Level 5 Lesson 17 - -(ㄴ/는)다는, -(ㄴ/는)다고 In this lesson, we take a look at the verb ending -(ㄴ/는)다는 and -(ㄴ/는)다고. Before we go on and explain this, however, it would be a good idea to briefly review some of the previously introduced verb endings that are related to this. Level 5 Lesson 10: NOUN + -(이)라고 + VERB related to speaking or communication Ex) NOUN + -(이)라고 + 말하다 = to say that something is NOUN, to say “NOUN” NOUN + -(이)라고 + 쓰다 = to write that something is NOUN, to write down “NOUN” Level 5 Lesson 12: NOUN + -(이)라는 + NOUN Ex) NOUN + -(이)라는 + 사람 = a person who says he is NOUN, a person who’s called NOUN NOUN + -(이)라는 + 곳 = a place that’s called NOUN Level 5 Lesson 16: VERB + -(ㄴ/는)다 Ex) 가다 (= to go) → 나 먼저 간다. (= Hey, I’m going to go.) 먹다 (= to eat) → 나 이거 먹는다. (= Hey, I’m going to eat this.) 오다 (= to come) → 전화 온다. (= Hey, the phone is ringing.) And the verb ending we are introducing in this lesson is a COMBINATION of -(이)라고 and -(ㄴ/는)다. The “NOUN + -(이)라고 + VERB” structure is used when you want to say “(they) say that (something is) + NOUN”. And when you want to say “(they) say that (something) + VERB”, you change “라" to “다". NOUN + -라고  → VERB + -다고 But this is not it. In order to change a verb into the -다고 form, you need to use the narrative form, which we introduced in the previous lesson. NOUN + -(이)라고 + 말하다/하다/쓰다/적다/부르다/etc VERB + -(ㄴ/는)다고 + 말하다/하다/쓰다/적다/부르다/etc (* 말하다 = to say / 하다 = to say / 쓰다 = to write / 적다 = to write down / 부르다 = to call) Examples - Combined with 말하다 (= to say) Action Verbs 가다 → 간다고 말하다 (= to say that someone is going, to say that someone will go) 보다 → 본다고 말하다 (= to say that someone sees something, to say that someone is going to see something) Decriptive Verbs 좋다 → 좋다고 말하다 (= to say that something is good) 크다 → 크다고 말하다 (= to say that something is big) - Combined with 듣다 (= to hear) Action Verbs 오다 → 온다고 듣다 (= to hear that something/someone is coming) 먹다 → 먹는다고 듣다 (= to hear that someone is eating something) Descriptive Verbs 비싸다 → 비싸다고 듣다 (= to hear that something is expensive) 맛있다 → 맛있다고 듣다 (= to hear that something is delicious) Sample Sentences (of both -(이)라고 and -(ㄴ/는)다고) 1. 뭐라고 했어요?
