توضیح 마중 나가다 in your Level:

At the A1 level, you can think of '마중 나가다' as a special way to say 'hello' at the airport or station. It is made of two parts: '마중' (meeting/greeting) and '나가다' (to go out). You use this when you leave your house to meet a friend who is arriving. For example, if your mom is coming to visit you by bus, you go to the bus stop. That action is '마중 나가다'. It is a very kind thing to do in Korea. You can use it in simple sentences like '공항에 가요' (I go to the airport) + '마중 나가요' (I go to meet them). It shows you are happy they are here. Remember, you only use this for someone who is arriving, not for someone who is already with you. It is a 'welcome' action.

At the A2 level, you should focus on the grammar of '마중 나가다'. It is a compound verb. You often use it with the particle '-(으)러' which means 'in order to'. So, '마중 나가러 가요' means 'I am going in order to meet someone'. You should also learn the difference between '나가다' (to go out) and '나오다' (to come out). If you are at home and telling a friend you will meet them at the station, say '마중 나갈게요'. If you are the person arriving and your friend is there, you say '친구가 마중 나왔어요'. This level also introduces the opposite word: '배웅하다' (to see someone off). '마중' is for arrivals, '배웅' is for departures. Knowing this pair is very helpful for describing travel and visits.

At the B1 level, you begin to understand the social importance of '마중 나가다'. It's not just about transportation; it's about 'Jeong' (social bonding). In Korea, if you don't '마중 나가다' for a close friend or family member, it might seem like you aren't very excited to see them. You will also encounter honorifics. When talking about your parents or a teacher, you must use '마중 나가시다'. For example, '아버지가 할머니를 마중 나가셨어요' (Father went out to meet Grandmother). You might also hear the noun form '마중' used alone, as in '마중을 가다' or '마중을 나오다'. This level requires you to distinguish between '마중 나가다' and '데리러 가다' (to pick someone up). '데리러 가다' is more about the act of picking someone up in a car, while '마중 나가다' emphasizes the greeting and welcome.

At the B2 level, you should be comfortable using '마중 나가다' in various complex sentence structures and understanding its nuances in different registers. You might see this verb in literature or more formal writing to describe the anticipation of a meeting. You should also be aware of the passive-like experience of being met: '마중을 받다' (to be met/greeted upon arrival). In business settings, '마중 나가다' is a key part of 'Gwaek-hui' (hospitality toward guests). A junior employee might be told, '신입 사원이 공항으로 마중 나가세요' (New employee, please go to the airport to meet the guest). At this level, you can also use it metaphorically, such as '마중 나가는 마음' (a heart that goes out to meet someone), describing a proactive and welcoming attitude in life or relationships.

At the C1 level, you explore the deep linguistic and cultural roots of '마중 나가다'. The term '마중' comes from the Middle Korean '맞-' (to meet) with the nominalizing suffix '-웅'. This reflects a long history of communal hospitality. You should be able to discuss the sociolinguistic implications of this phrase—how it reinforces hierarchy and social closeness. In advanced literature, '마중' can represent a philosophical stance of openness toward the future or toward 'the other'. You might encounter related but more obscure terms like '길마중' (meeting someone on the road). Your usage should be flawless, including the correct use of '나오다' vs '나가다' based on the spatial deictic center of the narrative or conversation. You should also be able to compare it with similar concepts in other cultures, like the 'welcoming committee' or 'gate greeting'.

At the C2 level, '마중 나가다' is understood within the broader context of Korean honorific systems and the evolution of the Korean language. You can analyze how the modernization of transport (from walking to high-speed rail) has changed the physical distance of the 'majung' while preserving the emotional intent. You might critique the use of the term in modern media or analyze its frequency in different dialects. A C2 learner understands the subtle poetic nuances when '마중' is used in poetry to describe the arrival of spring or a new era. You can also discuss the linguistic transition from '마중 나가다' to the more functional '픽업하다' (pick up) in urban youth slang and what that suggests about changing social values in Korea. Your mastery allows you to use the term with perfect cultural resonance in any setting, from high-level diplomacy to intimate family gatherings.

마중 나가다 در ۳۰ ثانیه

To go out to meet an arriving person.
Used for airports, stations, and bus stops.
Shows hospitality and affection (Jeong).
Opposite of 'bae-ung-ha-da' (seeing off).

The Korean expression 마중 나가다 is a beautiful compound verb that encapsulates a core aspect of Korean hospitality and social etiquette. At its most basic level, it means 'to go out to meet someone' who is arriving from a distance. However, the cultural weight of this phrase goes far beyond a simple physical movement. It implies a sense of warmth, anticipation, and respect for the person arriving. Unlike the English word 'pick up,' which often feels transactional or focused on the vehicle, majung nagada focuses on the act of 'meeting' or 'welcoming' the person the moment they arrive at a transition point like an airport, a train station, or even a bus stop.

The Etymology of Welcome: The word '마중' (majung) is derived from the verb '맞다' (matda), which means to receive, to greet, or to welcome. When combined with '나가다' (nagada - to go out), it specifically describes the action of leaving one's home or current location to reach the arrival point before the guest does.

부모님이 공항으로 저를 마중 나가셨어요. (My parents went out to the airport to meet me.)

In Korean society, going out to meet someone is a sign of deep 'Jeong' (affection). If a friend is visiting from another city, simply giving them directions to your house might be seen as slightly cold. Instead, offering to majung nagada at the station shows that you value their effort in traveling to see you. It is a proactive form of kindness that bridges the gap between the traveler's journey and their destination.

Historically, this practice was even more significant. In traditional Korean villages, family members would walk to the village entrance or the local tavern to wait for relatives returning from long journeys on foot or by horse. This tradition has modernized into waiting at airport arrival gates or subway exits, but the underlying sentiment of 'I can't wait to see you, so I'll come part of the way to meet you' remains unchanged. It is one of the first verbs a learner should master to understand the nuances of Korean social bonds and family dynamics.

Contextual Nuance: This phrase is almost exclusively used for arrivals. You wouldn't use it for a casual meeting at a cafe where both parties are arriving simultaneously. One person must be the 'host' or 'resident' and the other the 'traveler' or 'guest'.

Furthermore, the phrase is often used in the context of children. Parents will '마중 나가다' to the school gate or the academy bus stop to ensure their children return home safely. In this context, it blends the concepts of welcoming and protection. It is a very active verb; it requires the actor to stop what they are doing and physically move toward the arriving party. This sacrifice of time and effort is exactly what makes the gesture meaningful in the Korean cultural context.

Using 마중 나가다 correctly involves understanding its relationship with particles and destination markers. Since it is a compound verb involving movement ('나가다'), it frequently pairs with the destination particle -으로/로 (to/toward) or the location particle -에. The person you are meeting is usually marked with the object particle -을/를, although this is often omitted in casual conversation.

Grammatical Structure: [Person] + 을/를 + [Location] + 에/로 + 마중 나가다. Example: 친구를 서울역에 마중 나가요. (I go to Seoul Station to meet my friend.)

비가 오니까 동생을 버스 정류장까지 마중 나갔어요. (Because it was raining, I went out to the bus stop to meet my younger sibling.)

One common variation is using the 'purpose' ending -(으)러. For example, '마중 나가러 가다' (to go out in order to meet someone). While it might sound redundant to English speakers, in Korean, this emphasizes the intention behind the movement. You are not just going to the airport; you are going specifically for the purpose of the majung.

The verb '나가다' (to go out) can also be swapped with '나오다' (to come out) depending on the speaker's perspective. If you are the person arriving and someone is coming to meet you, you would say '친구가 저를 마중 나왔어요' (My friend came out to meet me). This distinction between 'go' and 'come' is vital for natural-sounding Korean. If you are currently at home talking to the person on the phone, you would say '지금 마중 나갈게' (I will go out to meet you now).

Tense and Aspect: Past: 마중 나갔다 (went out to meet). Present: 마중 나간다 (going out to meet). Future: 마중 나갈 것이다 (will go out to meet). Progressive: 마중 나가고 있다 (is currently on the way to meet).

In business contexts, '마중 나가다' is used when a representative goes to the lobby or the airport to welcome a visiting client. It shows that the company respects the visitor. In such cases, the level of formality increases, often using '마중을 나갑니다' or '마중을 나가겠습니다' to convey a professional yet welcoming tone. It is not just a personal favor; it is a standard business protocol in Korea to ensure guests are never left wandering or searching for their destination alone.

You will hear 마중 나가다 most frequently in transit hubs and domestic settings. If you spend time at Incheon International Airport, you will see countless signs and hear announcements regarding meeting points, but the word itself lives in the conversations of families waiting at the arrival gates. You might hear a grandmother say into her phone, '어디쯤이니? 내가 게이트 앞으로 마중 나갈게' (Whereabouts are you? I'll go out to the gate to meet you).

K-Drama Scenes: In dramas, this phrase is a classic trope for showing care. A romantic lead might wait in the snow at a bus stop to '마중 나가다' the other character, showing their devotion without saying 'I love you' directly.

'역에 마중 나갈 테니까 도착하면 전화해.' (I'll go out to the station to meet you, so call me when you arrive.)

Another common place to hear this is in the context of school and 'hagwons' (private academies). In Korea, the safety of children is paramount, and it is very common for mothers, fathers, or grandparents to '마중 나가다' to the yellow school bus. You'll hear parents chatting among themselves, saying, '아이 마중 나갈 시간이에요' (It's time to go out and meet my child). This usage highlights the daily, routine nature of the word—it's not just for special trips, but for any arrival that warrants a greeting.

In literature and song lyrics, the word carries a poetic, nostalgic weight. It often symbolizes waiting and the joy of reunion. A song might talk about 'waiting at the end of the road to meet you' (길 끝에서 너를 마중 나가). Here, the physical act of going out represents an emotional opening of the heart. Even in modern K-pop, lyrics about reunions often use variations of '마중' to evoke a sense of longing being fulfilled. Whether it's a high-stakes business meeting at a luxury hotel lobby or a simple rainy day at a bus stop, this phrase is the linguistic glue that connects the traveler to their destination.

One of the most frequent mistakes English speakers make is confusing 마중 나가다 with the general verb 만나다 (to meet). While both involve people coming together, 만나다 is used for pre-arranged appointments or general encounters. If you say '친구를 공항에서 만났어요', it could mean you happened to run into them or you both arrived at the same time. If you say '친구를 공항으로 마중 나갔어요', it specifically means you went there for the sole purpose of greeting them upon their arrival.

Confusion with '배웅하다': This is the biggest pitfall. '마중 나가다' is for someone ARRIVING. '배웅하다' (bae-ung-ha-da) is for someone LEAVING. You '마중' them at the start of their visit and '배웅' them at the end.

❌ '친구를 배웅하러 공항에 마중 나갔어요.' (This is contradictory. It says you went to meet them to see them off.)

Another error involves the direction of movement: 나가다 vs. 나오다. Learners often use 나가다 (to go out) even when they are talking to the person who is arriving. If you are the one arriving and your friend is meeting you, you should say '친구가 마중 나왔어요' (My friend came out to meet me). Using '나갔어요' in this context sounds like you are observing the friend from a third-person perspective rather than being the recipient of their gesture.

Lastly, learners sometimes use '마중 나가다' for things that aren't people, like a package or a delivery. While you can 'pick up' a package, you don't '마중' it. '마중' carries a human element of greeting and welcoming. For a delivery, you would simply use '택배를 받으러 나가다' (to go out to receive a package). Using '마중' for an inanimate object sounds personified and slightly strange unless used humorously to show how much you were anticipating a pizza delivery!

While 마중 나가다 is the most common way to describe this action, there are several alternatives depending on the level of formality and the specific nuance you want to convey. Understanding these differences will help you sound more like a native speaker and choose the right word for the right social situation.

마중 나가다 vs. 마중 가다: '마중 나가다' implies you are inside a building (like a house) and you 'go out' of that space. '마중 가다' is more general and just means you are 'going' to meet them, regardless of whether you are 'exiting' a specific place.
마중 나가다 vs. 데리러 가다: '데리러 가다' (de-ri-reo ga-da) means 'to go to pick someone up'. This is more functional. If you have a car and you are just performing the task of transporting them, '데리러 가다' or the Konglish '픽업하다' (pick-up-ha-da) is often used. '마중 나가다' focuses more on the greeting and the welcome.

'공항에 손님을 맞이하러 갔습니다.' (I went to the airport to welcome the guest.) - Use '맞이하다' for higher formality.

For very formal occasions, such as welcoming a head of state or a high-ranking official, the verb 맞이하다 (ma-ji-ha-da) is used. This is the root of '마중' and sounds much more dignified and ceremonial. You might see it in news reports: '대통령이 외빈을 맞이했습니다' (The President welcomed the foreign guest). In daily life, however, '맞이하다' can sound a bit too stiff.

Finally, consider the word 환영하다 (hwan-yeong-ha-da), which means 'to welcome' in a general sense (like 'Welcome to Korea!'). You can '환영' someone as part of your '마중', but '환영' is the feeling or the ceremony, while '마중 나가다' is the specific physical action of going to the arrival point. By mastering these distinctions, you can navigate Korean hospitality with precision and grace.

ریشه کلمه

The word '마중' is a nominalized form of the native Korean verb '맞다' (matda), which means to receive, greet, or face. The suffix '-웅' was a historical nominalizer.

معنای اصلی: The original sense was 'the act of facing or receiving a guest'.
