Word by Word

제 “제” means “my” in “제 숙제에서”, referring politely to the speaker’s homework. It is the possessive form related to “저” (“I”) and comes before the possessed noun. Use it when referring politely to your own belongings or responsibilities, such as homework.
숙제에서 “숙제에서” means “in my homework” or “among my homework” here, identifying where the incorrect parts are found. The particle “에서” marks the relevant place or area in “제 숙제에서”. Use this form when locating something within homework or another written task.
틀린 “틀린” means “wrong” or “incorrect” in “틀린 부분을”. It is the noun-modifying form of “틀리다”, so it describes the parts that contain mistakes. Use it before a noun when identifying an incorrect answer, sentence, or part.
부분을 “부분을” means “the parts” as the object of reviewing in “틀린 부분을 함께 복습할”. “부분” means a part or section, and “을” marks it as the object. Use this pattern when referring to a specific part that someone will check, change, or review.
함께 “함께” means “together” in “함께 복습할 수 있을까요?”, showing that the speaker wants to review with the listener. It commonly comes before the action that people do together. Use it when politely suggesting a shared activity.
복습할 “복습할” means “to review” in “복습할 수 있을까요?”. It is the form of “복습하다” used before “수” in the possibility construction “복습할 수 있다”. Use this construction when asking whether an activity is possible.
수 “수” is the noun used in “복습할 수 있을까요?” to express ability or possibility. Together with “복습할” and “있을까요”, it forms the polite question “Could we review?”. Use “-(으)ㄹ 수 있다” after an action to express that it is possible or possible to do.
있을까요 “있을까요” completes the polite possibility question “복습할 수 있을까요?”, meaning “could we” or “would it be possible?”. Here it makes the request gentle rather than direct. Use this ending when politely asking whether something is possible.
문장에 “문장에” means “in the sentence” in “문장에 작은 오류 몇 가지를 표시했어요”. “에” identifies the sentence as the place or area where the errors are marked. Use it when describing something located in or added to a sentence.
작은 “작은” means “small” in “작은 오류”. It is the noun-modifying form of “작다” and describes the errors as minor. Use it before a noun when describing a small size or a minor degree.
오류 “오류” means “error” in “작은 오류 몇 가지”. In this dialogue it refers specifically to mistakes in sentences or homework. Use it in discussions of written work, corrections, or technical and language mistakes.
몇 “몇” means “a few” or “several” in “몇 가지” and “몇 개”. It asks or indicates an unspecified small number before a counting expression. Use it before a counter when the exact number is not stated.
가지를 “가지를” is “가지” with the object marker “를” in “오류 몇 가지를 표시했어요”, referring to several items or kinds of errors. The counter “가지” helps count the errors, and “를” marks them as what was marked. Use this after a number or “몇” when counting items or types.
표시했어요 “표시했어요” means “marked” or “indicated” in “오류 몇 가지를 표시했어요”. It is the polite past form of “표시하다”, showing that the marking has already been done. Use it when pointing out or marking errors, locations, or important information in written material.
왜 “왜” means “why” in “왜 이 부분을 고쳤어요?”, asking for the reason for the correction. It normally appears before the action or explanation being questioned. Use it when asking someone to explain a choice or action.
이 “이” means “this” in “이 부분을”, pointing to the particular part being discussed. It appears directly before the noun “부분”. Use it before a nearby or currently indicated person, thing, or part.
고쳤어요 “고쳤어요” means “corrected” or “fixed” in “이 부분을 고쳤어요?”. It is the polite past form of “고치다”, referring here to changing an incorrect part. Use it when asking about or describing a completed correction.
여기서는 “여기서는” means “here” or “in this case” in “여기서는 명사에 관사가 필요해요”. The ending “는” sets this location or case as the topic of the explanation. Use it when giving a rule that applies specifically to the point currently being discussed.
명사에 “명사에” means “on the noun” or “with the noun” in “명사에 관사가 필요해요”, identifying the noun as the place where the article is needed. The particle “에” marks the relevant target or point of attachment. Use this pattern when explaining what a grammatical element is needed with.
관사가 “관사가” means “an article” as the subject of “관사가 필요해요”. “가” marks the grammatical item that is needed in this sentence. Use it when discussing an article as a required part of a noun phrase.
필요해요 “필요해요” means “is needed” or “is necessary” in “관사가 필요해요”. It politely states that something is required in the current sentence. Use “필요해요” after the thing that is needed when explaining a requirement.
개 “개” is a counting unit for items in “몇 개 답에서”, where the phrase refers to a few answers. It follows “몇” to express an unspecified number of counted items. Use it when counting ordinary objects or items such as answers or pieces of work.
답에서 “답에서” means “in the answers” in “몇 개 답에서 그걸 놓쳤어요”, identifying the answers where the speaker missed the article. The particle “에서” marks the area in which the omission occurred. Use it when locating a mistake or action within answers or other written responses.
그걸 “그걸” means “that” or “it” as the object in “그걸 놓쳤어요” and “그걸 넣으면”, referring to the article discussed previously. It is the spoken contraction of “그것을”, with “을” marking the object. Use it when referring back to an already mentioned item without repeating its name.
놓쳤어요 “놓쳤어요” means “missed” or “overlooked” in “그걸 놓쳤어요”. It is the polite past form of “놓치다”, describing the speaker’s failure to notice or include the article. Use it when admitting that you failed to notice an important detail or opportunity.
여기에 “여기에” means “here” in “여기에 그걸 넣으면”, pointing to the specific position where the article should be added. “에” marks the destination or location of placing something. Use it when telling someone where to put or add an item.
넣으면 “넣으면” means “if you put it in” or “when you add it” in “여기에 그걸 넣으면”. It is the conditional form of “넣다” and introduces the condition that leads to the sentence becoming complete. Use “-(으)면” after an action when explaining a result that follows if or when it happens.
문장이 “문장이” means “the sentence” as the subject in “문장이 완전해져요”. The particle “이” marks the sentence as the thing that changes. Use this pattern when describing what becomes complete, clear, or correct after an edit.
완전해져요 “완전해져요” means “becomes complete” in “문장이 완전해져요”. It describes a change into a complete state after the missing article is added. Use it when explaining that an edit makes something complete or whole.
지금 “지금” means “now” in “지금 그 부분을 다시 쓸게요”, placing the rewriting in the present moment. It commonly appears before the action being done or promised. Use it when saying that you are doing something immediately.
그 “그” means “that” or “the” in “그 부분을”, referring to the part already identified in the conversation. It comes directly before “부분”. Use it before a noun when pointing back to something known from the context.
다시 “다시” means “again” in “다시 쓸게요”, showing that the part will be written another time or in a revised form. It usually comes before the action. Use it when repeating an action or doing it anew after a correction.
쓸게요 “쓸게요” means “I’ll write it” in “그 부분을 다시 쓸게요”. It is the polite form used for the speaker’s intention or willing commitment to do the action. Use it when responding to a suggestion or deciding to take an action yourself.
그러면 “그러면” means “then” or “in that case” in “그러면 그 규칙을 기억하는 데 도움이 될 거예요”. It connects the previous action of rewriting with its expected result. Use it to introduce a consequence or next step based on what was just said.
규칙을 “규칙을” means “the rule” as the object of remembering in “그 규칙을 기억하는”. “을” marks the rule as what the learner will remember. Use it when referring to a rule that someone learns, remembers, follows, or explains.
기억하는 “기억하는” means “remembering” in “기억하는 데 도움이 될 거예요”. It is the form of “기억하다” used before “데” to turn the action into the activity for which something is helpful. Use it in the pattern “기억하는 데 도움이 되다” when describing something that helps with remembering.
데 “데” is the dependent noun in “기억하는 데 도움이 될 거예요”, meaning “in doing” or “for” the activity of remembering. Together, “기억하는 데” identifies the purpose or activity that receives help. Use this construction before “도움이 되다” to say that something is helpful for doing an action.
도움이 “도움이” means “help” as the subject in “기억하는 데 도움이 될 거예요”. It forms the expression “도움이 되다”, meaning that something is helpful or becomes a help. Use it when describing an action, explanation, or tool that helps someone do something.
될 “될” means “will become” or “will be” in “도움이 될 거예요”. It is the form of “되다” used before “거예요” to describe an expected result. Use it in “도움이 될 거예요” when predicting that something will be helpful.
거예요 “거예요” completes the expression “도움이 될 거예요”, giving the polite meaning “will be” or “is expected to be”. With “될”, it presents the helpful result as an expectation or prediction. Use this ending when politely stating what is likely to happen or what result an action is expected to have.
