그냥 받을 소리가 없지 아마 조도 아니고 아마 조가 아니다

Question: what is the underlying meaning of 조, which i suppose it is the hanja word for 새 ?

In fact, why is the native word 새 not being used in this case?

I am not getting any hints from online sources, possibly mistaken the sound for something else. I need confirmation and explanation. Thanks in advance.

Answer

It's the 아마추어(amateur), not 아마 조.

A: 그냥 받았을 리가 없지. 아마추어도 아니고. He (or She) would never take it for nothing unless he (or she) isn't a amateur...
B: 아마추어가 아니다... You think so....

Answer

Hello :)
I heard this sound as follows:
그냥 놔뒀을리가 없지. 아마추어 (Amateur)도 아니고.
아마추어(Amateur)가 아니다?
