I’m in a similar place as Dan (I think)….I get what the words mean, but I don’t understand how the phrases fit into actual sentences/conversation. For instance, would you say something like “그는 말했어 단호박” to express that he responded with a flat out no? Part of my personal confusion is that I don’t know if you should treat these phrases as nouns or adjectives. To reuse my example, should “단호박” be used to specify what was said, or used as a description of how it was said. Or with It “뇌섹남”, should it be used to state that someone is an intellectual, or used to describe a type of person (ie “the man is an intellectual” vs “the intellectual man”). Seems that this course does a great job getting you to know the phrases, but doesn’t demonstrate how the phrases fit in grammatically within a proper sentence.
This course is interesting, but could you add at least one example sentence per lesson?
For example,
우리 팀중에서 전 하드 캐리예요
게임 했을 때 전 하느 캐리했어요.
하드 캐리됐어요.
I understand the meaning from the video, but I don’t know how to actually use it.
그 게임 제가 하드캐리했어요. 우리 팀에서 하드캐리는 저예요. (You can write it without spacing)
We recommend you look up the words on Google when you’re puzzled. You can find many example sentences written by native Korean speakers. Thank you!
This course was so much fun !

Concerning no. 4: 발연기 (bad acting), I would like to know, why 발 does mean ‘bad’ here.
I think it derived from the common phrase “발로 해도 이것보단 낫겠다” (“I’d do better than this even with my feet”) when something someone has done is really bad. Since everything we do is done with hands, the result would be really bad if we try to do something with our feet. 발연기 (“acting with feet”) would imply that the actor is not skillful in their art, as if it’s “done with their feet”.
Yes! Thank you for studying with us, guys!
