Note: 좋다 is an adjective which cannot act on an object 좋아하다 is a verb which can act on an object Another explainations.. 1. 한국어 좋아요..I like the Korean language. 2.이거 좋아요. = I like this. 3. SNSD 좋아요. = I like SNSD. ( So Nyeo Shi Dae/ Girls Generation) Kahit na ang verb 좋다 sa examples ay nangangahulugang “to like” ang verb na 좋다 ay originally means “ good” kaya ang nouns na (한국어, 이거, SNSD) ay mga subjects ng mga sentences. Kapag nilagyan natin ng mga particles ( ung mga particles ay 이/가, 을/를, 은/는...) ang pangungusap o sentence sa mga nouns ay dapat ung subject marking particles. Matatandaan po natin na ang mga particles na ito ay ◆이/가 used as an identifier particle or a subject particle. ◆을/를Used as an object particle. -At mrami pang iba.. Example sa 1. 한국어 좋아요. 한국어를 좋아( x ) mali 한국어가 좋아요. ( o ) tama ang ibig sabihin nyan ay Korean is good, likable, enjoyable, and preferable para sau. Ang pinagkaiba ng 좋다 at 좋아하다 Kapag gusto mo e express na gusto mo ang isang bagay gagamitin mo ang verb na 좋아하다, which means “to like”. The meanings might be similar but since 좋다 means “to be good” ang noun na sinusundan nito ay ang subject ng sentence, at sa 좋아하다 naman ang noun na nasusundan nito ay nagiging object of the sentence. *Kapag wala pong particles, walang problema kasi po pareho lang ang meaning nila. Kaya po cla nagka iba ay dahil lang naman po sa particles. 1) SNSD 좋아요. 2) SNSD 좋아해요. And sentence number 1 and 2 ay pareho lamang ang meaning. Pero kapag gusto mong e specify what is good and who likes whom, un ung time na dapat mag add na ng particles. 3) SNSD가 좋아요. 4) SNSD를 좋아요. (x) Sentence no.3 means that you like SNSD. at ang sentence number 4 ay mali dahil ang 좋다 ay hindi verb para magkaroon ng object sa sentence. 5) SNSD를 좋아해요. 6) SNSD가 좋아해요. Sentence no.5 means that you like SNSD. And (IMPORTANT!) sentence no.6 means that SNSD likes something or someone. The subject of the sentence is SNSD, so you need to add what it is that SNSD likes.
