그쪽이 when talking about one's own friend Can 그쪽이 have a negative or derogatory subtlety behind it? When the name of the person you are talking directly to is replaced with it. For example: 그쪽이 하는 말 안 믿어요 I don't believe what [that person] says. 그쪽이랑 더 이상 말하고 싶지않아요 I don't want to talk with [that person] any more. [That person] is me and my friend was messaging me. This friend of mine always speaks in 반말 to me because we are close friends and have known each other for many years. And would say my name, not 그쪽. Normally messages from this person would read like this: 나 사무실에 왔어 롸쓰가 생각보다 일찍 끝났네~ 뭔지 모르겠네 ㅋㅋ I am just curious about "그쪽" and why it used it in these examples?

"-다능/-냐능" What is the purpose of this speach?

나는 다왔~다~능!

I am guessing that adding 능 at the end doesn't really change the meaning or implication much, but there must be some reason why someone would say this instead of just saying 나는 다왔다! or 나는 다왔어!

What is the reason for using this article of speech?

" -다능" 쓰는 이유/목적 뭐일까요?

btw speech is not peach haha

다른 사람에게 상황 셜명을 하는 것 저는 이말 썼어요: 가끔 어떤 사람이 당신에게 직접 전하는 것와 다른 사람들에게 어떻게 설명하는것의 미묘한 차이는 흥미롭다 제 말은 괜찮아요? I wanted to say: It's interesting the subtle difference between the how someone says something directly to you and how they describe it to other people Another thing I'm not sure how to say in Korean is: Talking behind someone's back
