B1 phrase

~뿐만 아니라

When you want to say "not only... but also" in Korean, you can use the phrase "~뿐만 아니라."

This is really useful when you want to connect two pieces of information and show that the second part is an addition to the first.

For example, if you want to say "not only delicious but also cheap," you would use this phrase.

It helps you expand on an idea and give more details.

Wichtige Grammatik

Can be used with nouns, verbs, and adjectives. If attached to a noun, use ~뿐만 아니라. If attached to a verb or adjective, attach ~을/ㄹ 뿐만 아니라 for verbs and ~을/ㄹ 뿐만 아니라 for adjectives (conjugate to their dictionary form first).

저는 한국어'뿐만 아니라' 일본어도 할 수 있어요. (I can speak not only Korean but also Japanese.)

When connecting two clauses, ~뿐만 아니라 acts as a conjunction. The first clause ends with ~을/ㄹ 뿐만 아니라, and the second clause follows.

그 사람은 똑똑할 '뿐만 아니라' 친절해요. (Not only is that person smart, but they are also kind.)

The second part of the sentence often includes an additional element or emphasizes the first part. It can be a noun, verb, or adjective.

이 식당은 음식이 맛있을 '뿐만 아니라' 분위기도 좋아요. (Not only is the food at this restaurant delicious, but the atmosphere is also good.)

The particle ~도 (also/too) is often used in the second part of the sentence to reinforce the 'also' meaning.

저는 노래를 잘 부를 '뿐만 아니라' 춤'도' 잘 춰요. (Not only can I sing well, but I can also dance well.)

Can be used in both formal and informal contexts. The conjugation changes based on the formality of the sentence.

그녀는 예쁠 '뿐만 아니라' 착해요. (Not only is she pretty, but she is also kind.)

So verwendest du es

~뿐만 아니라 is a versatile phrase used to connect two clauses or nouns, emphasizing that the second element is an addition to the first, rather than an alternative. It translates to 'not only... but also' or 'as well as'. It can be attached to nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

Häufige Fehler

A common mistake is forgetting to add a particle (like ~도 or ~은/는) after the second element if you are listing nouns. Another mistake is incorrectly conjugating verbs or adjectives before attaching ~뿐만 아니라. Remember to use the plain form for verbs and adjectives.
