    Why there is no 'in' in the sentence "Nuclear launch detected" Please change 'in' to 'has been' Thank you all in advance. I've been into Starcraft. I think you guys know the famous game made by Blizzard. By the way, Whenever I play Starcraft, There is something that pops up in my head. It is the quote, " Nuclear Launch Detected." I've learned that 'detect' is a transitive verb, So it must have an objective to complete the sentence. For example, The researchers detected that there had been a volcano eruption. But why on earth that Terran commander say (I'm not sure if the man(woman) is a Terran commander or not) "Nuclear Launch Detected" I've Googled it. But I couldn't find any answer.

    Hello jesna :) You know what? the little princess is not an easy one. but it's a good call. I totally understand why you've had many questions. 1) 가까스로 is Unique. it means "manage to do something" 2) it can't get what you said. but, 그러자 그는 아주 심각한 이야기나 되는 듯이 소곤소곤 다시 되풀이해 말했다. Then, he repeated softly, like it's serious. ( but what he is saying is not serious) 3) " 한마디 툭 던졌다” means "said without (careful) consideration" 4) yes. you are right :) 5) Is not "들이다+보다" li's like a phrasal verb. look at something in something(such as Box) but usually it just takes a glance not inspect. because you are not allowed. 6) 그가 우연히 한 말들이 차츰차츰 모든 것을 알게 해 주었다. The words that that he said by chace allow me to understand the whole thing. "한" is verb. and it's transitive verb so it should have an obeject, in this sentence is the "말들" 7) ) <네 집>이란 어디를 두고 하는 말이니? it means where, do you say, your place is? But it's not Colloquial. instead, we say " 집이 어디야?" means "where do you live?" And as you know. speaker wanna know an exact location of your place among may places. but when we say "집이 어디야?" we don't. Just same with "Where do you live? " and it's hard to explain what meaning "두다" has because we don't usually use it. i think it's not a spoken Korean. in addition, it's out-of-date. i've only heard my grandparent said it. So don't rub it in. Just memorize it as "Where do you say your house is?" have a good day, and if you have aonther question, keep me informed. feel free to send me a message.

    Hello 루루슈. you said that you wanna get some examples of a descriptive verb that changed into its action verb form. 먹지 마세요. = 먹다 + -지 마세요. don't eat. 자지 마세요. = 자다 + -지 마세요don't sleep.. 복도에서는 뛰지 마세요. = 뛰다 + -지 마세요. don't run in the hallway. 물속에서는 숨쉬지 마세요. = 숨쉬다 + -지마세요 don't breathe under water. 참지마세요 = 참다 + - 지마세요. = don't put up with. the examples adove is action verbs with -지 마세요. as you know -지 마세요 is alwasy be with action verb. so if you wanna use a descriptive verb with -지 마세요. you should change it into an action verb. 배고프다 = descriptive verb. to be hungry So in this case, -다 is omitted off. so we just say " 배고프지 마세요." 졸리다 - 졸리지 마세요. - i'm sleepy. - don't be sleepy 속쓰리다 - 속쓰리지 마세요. - i have stomach pain. - don't have stomach pain 몸이 안 좋다 - 몸이 안 좋지 마세요. i feel a bit under the weather. - don't feel under the weather. 행복하다 - 행복하지 마세요. i'm happy. - don't be happy. 감기걸리다 - 검기걸리지 마세요. i'm coming down with a cold. - don't come down with a cold. 피곤하다. - 피곤하지 마세요. i'm bused.- don't be bushed. 술 너무 많이 마시지 마세요. --> isn't having 너무 and 많이 in one sentence redundant? no, it's not redundant. it's so natural. but strictly speaking, if i were a korean language teacher. i can say "it could be" because '너무' has a meaing of many. and '많이' has same meaning too. but, we usually say 술 너무 많이 마시지 마세요. 밥 너무 많이 먹지 마세요. etc. conclusion : use it. haha

    Hello :) As s native speaker, I think that there is no big difference between 2 you said above. but they have a slight difference. For example 1.) 난 너를 사랑하'는데', 넌 나를 사랑하지 않아. 2.) 난 너를 사랑하'지만', 너를 사랑하지 않아. 1's speaker wanna say that he or she loves you but it seems that you don't love her or him as he or she loves you. 2's speaker wanna say that he or she loves you but it seems that you don't love her or him at all. But, Actually, two are surely exchangeable. There is no perfect answer to this. So don't rub it in. just use them in an exchangeable way. if you have another question about this one. just leave a comment. have a good day.

    Sometimes Korean is very difficult for a foreign learner to pronounciate it as English is. as a native, I think that both are correct. please do not mix two up. For example, 라 has both pronunciations ; "La and Ra" both are correct. i left a link for you. if you have a time, just check it http://www.omniglot.com/writing/korean.htm
