- I think '최선을 다하다' can be the equivalent of 'to do your best'. 최선 the one's best 다하다 to make every effort So if I can give you some examples of Korean proverbs related to the expression of 최선을 다해 노력하는 것 (to give all the effort all you can be), it would be; 1) 공든 탑이 무너지랴 loosely translated, A tower would never collapse if it was built with effort. (Hard work always pays dividends.) 2) 무쇠도 갈면 바늘이 된다 word-for-word, Strike until the iron becomes a needle.(Constant dripping wears away the stone.) 3) 밤이 깊어질수록 새벽이 가까워 온다 (Dawn comes in the deepest darkness.)

- Long story short, -요 is not a shortened form of 있어요. -(어/아)요 Adding -요 to the ends of the sentences make them more formal, honorific way which is called 존댓말. In contrast, Not adding -요 is very informal, which called 반말, only be used with friends or people younger than you. For example, '한국어를 공부하고 있어요' is more polite way of saying '한국어를 공부하고 있어'. FYI, -고요 is a completely different grammar. It's a 존댓말 (honorific) of -고 -고(요) is used when you want to add more information or connect two ideas. For example, 저는 한국어를 공부하고(요), 일본어도 공부해요. (I study Korean, and also study Japanese.)0 votedMay 31, 20191
- A: 이 반찬은 입맛에 맞으세요? (Good!) B: 네, 딱 맞아요. 밥을 2그릇→두 그릇 더 먹을 정도→정도로 맛있어요. 딱 맞다 vs 잘 맞다 vs 딱 잘 맞다 In my opinion, '딱 맞다' somehow sounds like somthing fits(suits) perfectly in size. When we talk about personal taste using the expression '입맛에 맞다', '잘 맞다' (it suits well one's taste) or '잘 안 맞다'(it doesn't suit well one's taste) sounds natural to me. However, 딱 잘 맞다 can be also used when something just perfectly suits one's taste. In this case, 딱 is an adverb intensifying 잘. 2그릇 vs 두 그릇 In formal writing, it's better to use 한글 instead of 숫자 예) 2시→두 시/ 1번째 → 첫 번째 -ㄹ 정도로 This describes an action or a state by expressing the extent or degree. 예) 눈물이 날 정도로 아팠어. I was so sick that I almost cried.0 votedMay 30, 20190
