Log 5 - 한국 음식이 어때요?

well, I think 일기(diary) or 연습장(notepad) are batter. Actually, italki also named 연습장. 
Or if you want formal way, 오늘의 주제(it's sort of articles or textbooks. haha)

Today, I learned some adjectives describing food. I suddenly recalled I had a dinner in a Korean restaurant 3 weeks ago. Let's see how would I had put these newly-learned words in action if I had learned these words before I went to the restaurant.

I walked into the restaurant.
Waitress: Welcome, how many are you?
Me: 일 개예요. > 한 명이요. or 혼자 왔어요. 

개 only  use thing. not use person.

Waitress: This way please. Here is the menu.
I read through the menu.
Waitress: Are you ready to order?
Me: 네, 비빔밥이에요. (Is this right?)

네, 비빔밥으로 주세요. or 비빔밥으로 할게요.

just casual 네, 비빔밥요. 
Waitress: Ok, is there anything else?
Me: 아니요. or 아니요, 괜찮아요. / 아니요, 없어요.
Waitress: Ok, please wait.
So I waited, looked around and described the restaurant in Korean:
식당이 넓어요. 그리고 고객(or 손님)이 많아요. 의자는 참 좋아요.
Few minutes later, the waitress brought the food to my table. I started eating the food, thinking:
비빔밥이 아주 맛있어요.
After finishing the food, I sat down for a while, thinking random stuff. Then I walked to the cashier to pay the check, and left. Overall, I like the Korean food. They are delicious. With these newly-learned Korean words, I bet I can go to Korea and won't get starved there because I can at least order food there, which is very important tip to survive in Korea if I ever go to Korea in the future.

Thanks for reading my note. Please tell me what will the waiters actually say and serve in Korea if they speak Korean.

Waitress: Welcome, how many are you? > 어서오세요. 몇 분이세요? 몇 분이서 오셨어요?
Me: 일 개예요. > 한 명이요. or 혼자 왔어요. 

개 only  use thing. not use person.

Waitress: This way please. Here is the menu. 이쪽으로 오시죠. 메뉴는 여기 있습니다.
I read through the menu.
Waitress: Are you ready to order? 주문하시겠습니까? 주문하시겠어요?
Me: 네, 비빔밥이에요. (Is this right?)

네, 비빔밥으로 주세요. or 비빔밥으로 할게요.

just casual 네, 비빔밥요. 
Waitress: Ok, is there anything else? 더 필요하신 건 없으신가요? 
Me: 아니요. or 아니요, 괜찮아요. / 아니요, 없어요.
Waitress: Ok, please wait. 알겠습니다. 잠시만 기다려주세요.

어떻게 그이를 찾아냅니까.？

Day 3 - Logs for my Korean Learning progress

Today, I studied some phrases about location. For example, "식당이 어이 있어요?" "도서관 뒤에 있어요."

But I am confused with the particles in the sentences. How to use 이/가 and 은/는 with these location phrases?

because there are some examples: "소피아가 책방에 있어요." "가방은 의자 옆에 있어요."

So when should I use 이/가 or 은/는 after the subject?

Better study more tomorrow!

=============================================================

This is my opinion so just refer to understand.

Actually, 은/는 and 이/가 are simiral meaning.

소피아가 책방에 있어요.

소피아는 책방에 있어요. both sentece is gramatically ok. also meanig is same.

Well, I'm not sure you konw Korean grammer. cause it's about grammer.

Let me try and i hope you can understand. English doesn't have 조사 system.

So, it's tricky to explain.

Basically, 이/가 are 주격조사. 주격조사 located after subject and descirbe subject.

So, if noun has 주격조사, that noun is subject.

소피아가 책방에 있어요.
주어 주격조사

In adiition, there is rule.

if noun has final consonant you use ~가

it doesn't have final consonant you use ~이

산이 높다. 산 has final consonat ㄴ. 산가 높다(x)

나무가 높다. 나무 doesn't have final consonat. 나무이 높다.(X)

but, 은/는 are 보조사. 보조사 also located after subject and use widely

Usually, 보조사 used when you want compare, select topic or emphasize.

but if 보조사 can substitude 주격조사, it's possible.

if noun has final consonant you use ~은
it doesn't have final consonant you use ~는

Bact to the your example.

"식당이 어이 있어요?"

식당 has 주격조사 ~이. So, 식당 is subject. and also 식당 has final consonent that's why choose 이. not 가.

"소피아가 책방에 있어요."

소피아 has 주격조사 ~가. 소피아 doesn't have final consonent. So, we use ~가.

"가방은 의자 옆에 있어요."

Here, 가방 has 주격조사. but, I already said 은/는 are originally 보조사.

Also, it's can replacement 주격조사. 

I guess, writer want emphasize 가방. So, writer use ~은(보조사) 

Here, 가방 has final consonent that why use 은 not 는

가방은 의자 옆에 있어요. (O)

가방는 의자 옆에 있어요. (X)

침대는 의자 옆에 있어요. (O)

챔대은 의자 옆에 있어요. (X)

I don't know my explanation are easy but I hope it's helpful to you.

Thank you.

1. 채서(소) = I think you took a mistake. I think you mean 채소. It's vegetable
2. 유일 = only
3. 유일하게 = this is adj form about only
4. 계실 = hum..quite tricky to explain. It’s formal way about being or stay.

We use this expression to describe old people such as parents, grandparents, teacher or professor.
5. 살아계실 = polite and formal way someone alive.
6. 곁에 = by, beside, near
7. 데려 = bring
8. 데려오죠/데려가죠 = both of sugeestion form about 데려(bring).
데려오죠? means someone pick up and comeback your place.
데려가죠? means you ask to go somewhere with someone. Or together
9. 언제나 = always.
10. 언제나처럼 = yes, as always.

Thank you.
