इसे कैसे इस्तेमाल करें
감탄스럽다 is used when something or someone evokes a feeling of admiration, wonder, or awe. It's often used for things that are beautiful, impressive, or surprisingly good. You can use it to describe a person's talent, a beautiful view, or a remarkable achievement.
A common mistake is confusing 감탄스럽다 with just 'good' (좋다) or 'beautiful' (아름답다). While something 감탄스러운 can be good or beautiful, it carries a stronger sense of wonder or admiration than those simpler adjectives. Another mistake is using it for mundane things; it's reserved for things that truly inspire awe.

Focus on the emotion
감탄스럽다 describes something that makes you feel awe or admiration. Think about moments that genuinely impress you.
Use with situations or objects
You can use this adjective to describe a beautiful view, an impressive performance, or a remarkable achievement. It’s not typically used for people directly in the sense of 'admirable person' but rather their actions or qualities.
Think 'awe-inspiring'
A good English equivalent to capture the feeling is awe-inspiring or breathtaking, especially when describing scenery.
Connect to '감탄'
The root '감탄' (gam-tan) means admiration or exclamation. So, '감탄스럽다' literally means 'to be admiration-like' or 'to cause admiration'.
Practice with examples
Try saying: '그녀의 노래는 정말 감탄스러웠다.' (Her singing was truly admirable/wonderful.)
Another example
Or: '그 풍경은 너무 감탄스러워서 말을 잃었다.' (The scenery was so awe-inspiring that I lost my words.)
Not for casual praise
This word carries a strong sense of wonder. Don't use it for something mildly good; save it for things that truly impress you deeply.
Impact of nature
Koreans often use this word when describing the grandeur of nature, like majestic mountains or stunning sunsets, reflecting a cultural appreciation for such beauty.
Compare with '멋지다'
While '멋지다' (meot-ji-da) means cool or awesome, '감탄스럽다' is a stronger word, indicating a higher level of admiration and wonder.
