1.) "To Drink" or 마시다. If we remove the dictionary 다 ending, we are left with 마시. Following normal patterns for the polite form, we would have 마시어요. To make it easier and sound better, the real polite form is 마셔요. Any verb root that ends in ㅣ will naturally take the 어요/어 endings, and we shorten ㅣ+ 어 to ㅕ. Other verb examples that take this pattern are 가르치다 - 가르쳐요, 기다리다 - 기다려요, 치다 - 쳐요.
2) we meet 만나다 (get it?). This one should be easy. We already went over it with 가다. Since the verb root ends in 아, we shorten 만나아요 to 만나요. Also, keep in mind this pattern works with verb roots that end in ㅓ as well.
3.)we come to 오다 . The verb root is 오. This would naturally take the 아요 ending, making 오아요. Wouldn't it be much easier to combine the ㅗ and the ㅏ into ㅘ? It sure sounds better and smoother. That is exactly what we do. Whenever a verb root ends in ㅗ, it will naturally take the 아요 ending and because all of you will know this lesson, you will naturally combine the ㅗ and the 아요 to 와요. Other verb examples that take this pattern are 갔다오다 - 갔다와요, 나오다 - 나와요.
4.) we have 바쁘다. The verb root is 바쁘. Following normal verb patterns we would figure the polite form would be 바쁘아요. Try and say that. Now, try and say 바빠요. That is the correct way. When a verb root ends in ㅡ, we drop the ㅡ, look at the last vowel in the root that is left (not including the ㅡ) and add the appropriate ending. For this example, the last vowel would be ㅏ. So, when we drop the ㅡ and add the 아요 ending, we get 바빠요. Other verb examples that follow this pattern are 나쁘다 - 나빠요, 예쁘다 - 예뻐요,쓰다 - 써요.
5.)모르다. The verb root is 모르. You might be thinking, that ends in ㅡ so wouldn't it follow the above irregular pattern, and become 모라요? Indeed, it would, except Koreans have decided if a verb root ends in 르 (not just ㅡ), then we will double up the ㄹ by adding a second ㄹ to the end of the syllable before the 르. And then we drop the ㅡ. 몰라요. We added a ㄹ to 모 and got 몰. We dropped the ㅡ and got 라요. Together, we have 몰라요. Other verb examples using this pattern are 자르다 - 잘라요, 부르다 - 불러요, 빠르다 - 빨라요.
6.)덥다. You should definitely be good with verb roots by now and instantly know it is 덥. Now, with this irregular pattern, you must remember two things. Often, when a verb root ends in ㅂ, you should drop the ㅂ and add 우. After that, you move to the second step. If it ends in 우, when we pick a style such as polite style, it should naturally take the 어요 ending. This is another pattern where we combine two characters to make it smoother. 우 and ㅓ combine into 워. We get 더워요 in the end. Other verb examples that follow this pattern are 어렵다 - 어려워요, 즐겁다 - 즐거워요.
EXAMPLE;
1.) If we were to say 먹어요, what exactly are we saying? We know it is a polite way, and it means "to eat" . But do we know what we are saying when we say 먹어요 to someone? Well, it depends :). You could be saying "I'm eating." Or, you could be saying "you're eating". You could be saying "eat." If someone said "What do you want to do?" You could reply 먹어요. In Korean you can use the verbs in a much more general manner than in English. Later we will see how to add words such as "I" or "You" if necessary to clear up the meaning of a sentence.
2.) 좋다. This means To Be Good. If someone asks you how is something, you can say 좋아요! Like, "Are my new dress look ok? Do you like them? How are they?" "좋아요!". Or, if you are having a casual conversation about something with your friend, and they say something and in English you would just give the reply "Good!" or something, you can just say 좋아!(remember, it's a conversation with your friend).
