~(으)세요

~(eu)seyo

When you want to respectfully ask or tell someone to do something in Korean, you can use the honorific imperative ending ~(으)세요. This ending is used when speaking to someone older than you, in a position of authority, or simply to show politeness.

You attach ~으세요 to verb stems ending in a consonant, and ~세요 to verb stems ending in a vowel. For example, 가다 (to go) becomes 가세요 (Please go), and 읽다 (to read) becomes 읽으세요 (Please read).

Remember, this is a very common and important way to show respect in Korean, so it's good to practice using it often!

When you want to respectfully ask or tell someone to do something in Korean, you can use the honorific imperative ending ~(으)세요. This ending is attached to the stem of a verb.

If the verb stem ends in a consonant, you add ~으세요. For example, 읽다 (to read) becomes 읽으세요 (Please read). If the verb stem ends in a vowel, you add ~세요. For instance, 가다 (to go) becomes 가세요 (Please go).

This is a polite and commonly used way to give commands or make requests, especially to elders or people you don't know well. It’s important to use this ending to show respect in various social situations.

When attaching ~(으)세요 to a verb stem, if the verb stem ends with a vowel or , then ~세요 is used. If the verb stem ends with a consonant (excluding ), then ~으세요 is used.

This honorific ending is used to give commands or make requests politely, showing respect to the listener. It's commonly found in daily interactions, especially when speaking to elders, superiors, or people you don't know well.

For example, if you want to say "Please sit," you would take the verb stem 앉- (from 앉다) and add ~으세요 to form 앉으세요.

Similarly, for "Please come," the verb stem 오- (from 오다) combines with ~세요 to become 오세요.

When attaching ~(으)세요 to a verb stem, it becomes an honorific imperative, expressing a polite command or request. If the verb stem ends in a consonant, use -으세요. For example, 읽다 (to read) becomes 읽으세요 (Please read). If the verb stem ends in a vowel or the consonant 'ㄹ', use -세요. For example, 가다 (to go) becomes 가세요 (Please go), and 만들다 (to make) becomes 만드세요 (Please make).

§ What is ~(으)세요?

The Korean ending ~(으)세요 is a super useful honorific imperative. It's how you politely ask or tell someone to do something. Think of it as 'please do' or 'you should do,' but with an added layer of respect. You'll hear this everywhere in Korea, from shops to offices, and it's essential for polite communication.

DEFINITION
Please do (honorific imperative ending).

§ Hearing ~(으)세요 at Work

In a professional setting, ~(으)세요 is your best friend for showing respect to colleagues, superiors, and clients. It keeps the atmosphere polite and professional. You'll often hear it for instructions, requests, or even just offering things.

  • Giving Instructions: If your manager or a senior colleague is telling you what to do, they'll likely use this.
  • Making Requests: When you need something from a coworker, using ~(으)세요 makes your request polite and not demanding.
  • Client Interactions: Essential for customer service. It shows respect and courtesy.

저기, 잠시만 이리 오세요. (Excuse me, please come here for a moment.)

이 서류를 확인해 주세요. (Please check this document.)

회의실로 들어오세요. (Please come into the meeting room.)

§ Hearing ~(으)세요 at School

In a Korean school or university, ~(으)세요 is a cornerstone of interaction between teachers and students, and sometimes among students themselves when addressing seniors. It fosters a respectful learning environment.

  • Teacher to Student: Teachers use this to give instructions, assign tasks, or ask students to participate.
  • Student to Teacher (Indirect): While students might use more formal speech when directly addressing a teacher, they'll hear teachers use ~(으)세요 frequently.
  • Student to Senior Student: Younger students might use this form when asking for help or making requests to older students (선배).

책을 펴세요. (Please open your books.)

조용히 하세요. (Please be quiet.)

질문이 있으면 물어보세요. (If you have questions, please ask.)

§ Hearing ~(으)세요 in the News and Public Announcements

Even in public announcements or news reports, you'll encounter ~(으)세요. This is because these communications are often directed at a general audience and need to maintain a polite and respectful tone, addressing everyone honorifically. It's a way to ensure that the message is received well and taken seriously.

  • Public Safety Announcements: Whether it's about weather warnings or public health, these often use ~(으)세요 to politely instruct the public.
  • Broadcast News: When news anchors or reporters address the viewers with a request or advice, they'll use this form.

자세한 내용은 웹사이트를 방문하세요. (For more details, please visit the website.)

지금 바로 신청해 보세요! (Apply right now!) (implies 'please try applying')

Understanding and correctly using ~(으)세요 will significantly improve your politeness and comprehension in many daily Korean interactions. Keep practicing, and you'll soon use it naturally!

§ Understanding Honorifics in Korean

Korean uses honorifics, which means you change your language based on who you're talking to and who you're talking about. This is very different from English, so it takes some getting used to. The ending ~(으)세요 is a key part of speaking politely and respectfully in Korean, especially when you're telling someone to do something.

You use honorifics to show respect to people who are older, have a higher social status, or are not close friends or family. Think of it like this: if you wouldn't use someone's first name immediately in English in a formal setting, you'll likely need honorifics in Korean.

§ Basic Usage of ~(으)세요

The ending ~(으)세요 attaches to the stem of a verb or adjective to make it an honorific imperative (a polite command or request). If the verb stem ends in a consonant, you add 으세요. If it ends in a vowel, you add 세요.

Verb Stem ending in consonant
읽다 (to read) -> 읽으세요 (Please read)
Verb Stem ending in vowel
가다 (to go) -> 가세요 (Please go)

여기 앉으세요. (Please sit here.)

이 책을 읽으세요. (Please read this book.)

§ When to Use ~(으)세요 vs. Other Imperatives

Korean has several ways to give commands or make requests, and the choice depends entirely on the level of politeness needed.

  • ~(으)세요 (Honorific Imperative): This is the most common and generally safest way to give a polite command to an adult you don't know well, or someone older/higher in status. It shows respect.

    천천히 말씀하세요. (Please speak slowly.)

  • ~아/어 주세요 (Polite Request): While ~(으)세요 is a polite command, ~아/어 주세요 is more of a polite request, often implying a favor. It adds a nuance of 'for me' or 'on my behalf'. It's also honorific.

    ~(으)세요
    들어오세요. (Please come in.) - A polite direction.
    ~아/어 주세요
    들어와 주세요. (Please come in for me/us.) - A polite request, perhaps more personal.

    저를 도와주세요. (Please help me.)

  • ~아/어요 (Polite Statement/Question/Suggestion): This is the general polite ending for sentences. While it can imply a suggestion or mild command in context, it's not a direct imperative form. It's less forceful than ~(으)세요.

    ~(으)세요
    주무세요. (Please sleep.) - A direct polite command to someone (e.g., an elder).
    ~아/어요
    주무셔요. (You are sleeping/Please sleep.) - Less of a direct command, more of a polite suggestion or observation. Note the honorific stem 주무시- is still used here.
  • ~(으)십시오 (Formal Honorific Imperative): This is a very formal and stiff imperative, often heard in announcements, military contexts, or very formal speeches. It's much less common in daily conversation than ~(으)세요.

    ~(으)세요
    안녕히 계세요. (Please stay well.) - Common polite farewell.
    ~(으)십시오
    안녕히 계십시오. (Please stay well.) - Very formal farewell, less common daily.
  • ~(으)라 (Plain Imperative): This is a casual command form, usually used between very close friends, or by adults to children. It's impolite to use with strangers or people of higher status.

    ~(으)세요
    드세요. (Please eat.)
    ~(으)라
    먹어라! (Eat!) - Very direct, informal command.

§ Special Honorific Verbs

Some verbs have completely different honorific forms. You can't just add ~(으)세요 to them. You need to use the special honorific verb stem before adding the ending.

있다 (to be/have)
계세요 (Please stay/be)
먹다 (to eat), 마시다 (to drink)
드세요 (Please eat/drink)
자다 (to sleep)
주무세요 (Please sleep)
말하다 (to speak)
말씀하세요 (Please speak)

점심 드세요. (Please eat lunch.)

💡
When in doubt, use ~(으)세요. It's generally safe and polite in most situations with adults you don't know well. As you get more comfortable, you'll learn to differentiate when other forms are more appropriate.

How Formal Is It?

औपचारिक

"앉으십시오. (Please sit.)"

तटस्थ

"어서 오세요. (Please come in. / Welcome.)"

अनौपचारिक

"앉아라. (Sit down.)"

Child friendly

"이거 먹으세요. (Please eat this.)"

रोचक तथ्य

This ending is a combination of two honorific markers: -(으)시- (honorific suffix) and -어요/아요 (polite ending). Over time, it merged into the commonly used -(으)세요.

ज़रूरी व्याकरण

Use -(으)세요 with verbs to form an honorific imperative. If the verb stem ends in a consonant, use -으세요. If it ends in a vowel or 'ㄹ' consonant, use -세요.

읽다 (to read) → 읽으세요 (Please read) 가다 (to go) → 가세요 (Please go) 만들다 (to make) → 만드세요 (Please make)

This ending is used when speaking to someone older than you, a superior, or someone you wish to show respect to. It is polite and commonly used in daily conversation.

선생님, 앉으세요. (Teacher, please sit down.) 어머니, 드세요. (Mom, please eat.)

When forming a negative honorific imperative, use -지 마세요. This means 'Please do not do (honorifically)'.

가지 마세요. (Please don't go.) 만지지 마세요. (Please don't touch.)

Certain verbs have special honorific forms which should be used with -(으)세요 when applicable. For example, '먹다' (to eat) becomes '잡수시다' or '드시다', and '있다' (to be/have) becomes '계시다'.

선생님은 지금 계세요. (The teacher is here now.) 할머니, 많이 잡수세요. (Grandma, please eat a lot.)

While -(으)세요 is an imperative, it can also be used in a question form to politely ask someone to do something or to ask about their intention. This often softens the request.

좀 도와주세요? (Would you please help me a little?) 뭐 드시겠어요? (What would you like to eat?)

~(으)세요 vs ~(으)십시오

This is a more formal and slightly stronger imperative, often used in public announcements or formal speeches. '~(으)세요' is generally more conversational and softer.

~(으)세요 vs ~아/어/여요

This is a polite ending for statements and questions, but when used as an imperative (e.g., 앉아요), it's less honorific and less direct than '~(으)세요'. It's more like a polite suggestion.

~(으)세요 vs ~아/어/여라

This is a very informal and direct imperative, typically used towards subordinates, children, or close friends in a casual context. It lacks any honorific meaning.

व्याकरण पैटर्न

V-(으)세요: Honorific imperative ending. Used to politely ask or tell someone to do something. If the verb stem ends in a vowel or 'ㄹ', use -세요. If it ends in a consonant (not 'ㄹ'), use -으세요. When the verb stem ends in 'ㄹ', the 'ㄹ' is dropped and -세요 is added (e.g., 만들다 -> 만드세요). Can also be used in questions (V-(으)세요?) to ask about someone's action in an honorific way. Irregular verbs: For 'ㄷ' irregular verbs, 'ㄷ' changes to 'ㄹ' before -(으)세요 (e.g., 듣다 -> 들으세요). For 'ㅂ' irregular verbs, 'ㅂ' changes to '우' before -(으)세요 (e.g., 돕다 -> 도우세요). Used to show respect to the listener or the subject of the sentence. Not typically used with adjectives in a direct imperative sense, but can be used to suggest a state (e.g., 건강하세요 - Please be healthy).

आसानी से भ्रमित होने वाले

~(으)세요 vs 어서 오세요

Often confused as just 'welcome,' but it literally means 'please come quickly/promptly.' It's used to invite people in warmly.

'어서' (quickly/promptly) adds a nuance of urgency and warmth to the greeting, making it more than a simple welcome.

손님, 어서 오세요! (Customer, please come in quickly! [Welcome!])

~(으)세요 vs 앉으세요

Learners might think it's simply 'sit,' but the honorific ending implies a polite command or request, 'please sit.'

Without '~(으)세요', it would be '앉아' (sit, informal) or '앉아요' (sit, polite but not honorific command). The honorific makes it appropriate for elders or strangers.

여기 앉으세요. (Please sit here.)

~(으)세요 vs 드세요

Can mean 'please eat,' 'please drink,' or 'please take/have,' depending on context. This broad usage can be confusing.

It's the honorific form of 먹다 (to eat), 마시다 (to drink), and 들다 (to take/have). Context is key to understanding its meaning.

식사 드세요. (Please eat your meal.)

~(으)세요 vs 말씀하세요

Often confused with '말해요' (speak/talk). '말씀하세요' is the honorific way to say 'please speak' or 'please tell me.'

'말씀' is the honorific noun for '말' (word/speech). Using '말씀하세요' shows respect when asking someone to speak.

무엇을 말씀하시겠어요? (What would you like to say? [Please speak.])

~(으)세요 vs 기다리세요

While it means 'please wait,' the honorific implies a polite instruction, not just a statement of fact.

Simply '기다려' is informal. '기다리세요' is polite and respectful when telling someone to wait, especially someone older or a stranger.

잠시만 기다리세요. (Please wait for a moment.)

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल

10 सवाल

~(으)세요 is a Korean honorific imperative ending. It means 'please do' or 'please be' and is used when you are politely asking or telling someone to do something. It's often used with people older than you or in positions of authority, or simply when you want to show respect.

It depends on the verb stem. If the verb stem ends in a consonant (and the consonant is not ㄹ), you add -으세요. For example, 읽다 (to read) becomes 읽으세요 (Please read). If the verb stem ends in a vowel or the consonant ㄹ, you add -세요. For example, 가다 (to go) becomes 가세요 (Please go), and 만들다 (to make) becomes 만드세요 (Please make).

Yes, you can! When used with adjectives, ~(으)세요 functions as an honorific suggestion or a polite command to 'be' a certain way. For example, 행복하다 (to be happy) becomes 행복하세요 (Please be happy).

Both ~(으)세요 and ~십시오 are honorific imperative endings, but ~(으)세요 is generally softer and more commonly used in everyday conversations. ~십시오 is more formal and often heard in announcements, military contexts, or very formal speeches. Think of ~(으)세요 as 'please do' and ~십시오 as 'you must do' in a very polite way.

~(으)세요 is a direct polite command or request, focusing on the action itself (e.g., 'Please sit'). ~아/어/여 주세요 directly asks someone to do something 'for' the speaker or another person (e.g., 'Please sit for me'). So, ~(으)세요 is a general polite request, while ~아/어/여 주세요 implies a favor.

While ~(으)세요 is polite, it's generally too formal for close friends. With friends, you'd typically use less formal imperative forms like ~아/어/여 (e.g., 가! - Go!) or ~아/어/여라 (e.g., 가라! - Go!). You would use ~(으)세요 if you want to be extra polite to a friend, but it's not the default.

Yes, there are some! The most common irregularity is with 'ㄷ' irregular verbs. For example, 듣다 (to listen) becomes 들으세요 (Please listen), where ㄷ changes to ㄹ. Also, some 'ㅂ' irregular verbs change to '우' before 으세요, like 돕다 (to help) becomes 도우세요 (Please help).

You generally shouldn't use ~(으)세요 when giving commands to people significantly older than you or in very high positions, as it might still be considered slightly informal for those very specific contexts. In those cases, you might use ~십시오 or other more formal expressions, depending on the situation. Also, don't use it if you're trying to be rude or informal!

~(으)세요 attaches to verb or adjective stems, not directly to nouns to form an imperative. If you want to use a noun in an honorific imperative, you'd usually combine it with another verb. For example, if you want to say 'Please be a student,' you'd say 학생이 되세요 (Please become a student). '학생이세요?' means 'Are you a student?' (honorific question), not a command.

To make ~(으)세요 negative, you can use ~지 마세요 (Please don't). For example, 가지 마세요 (Please don't go) or 읽지 마세요 (Please don't read). You attach ~지 마세요 to the verb stem, regardless of whether it ends in a vowel or consonant.

multiple choice C2

Which of the following sentences correctly uses ~(으)세요 to politely ask someone to read a book?

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: 책을 읽으세요.

~(으)세요 is an honorific imperative ending used to politely ask or command someone to do something. For verbs ending in a consonant, '으세요' is used. For '읽다' (to read), it becomes '읽으세요'.

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: 앉으세요.

You want to politely tell a customer to eat their meal. Which of the following is the most appropriate way?

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: 식사하세요.

'식사하다' (to have a meal) is a verb that can be directly used with ~(으)세요. Since '하다' verbs connect directly to '세요', '식사하세요' is the common and polite way to say 'Please eat' in an honorific context.

true false C2

The ending ~(으)세요 can be used with both verbs and adjectives to form polite commands or suggestions.

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: गलत

~(으)세요 is primarily used with verbs to form polite commands or requests. While some adjectives can take '으세요' in specific contexts to express a polite suggestion (e.g., '예쁘세요' for 'you are pretty' in a polite descriptive sense), its primary function as an imperative is with action verbs. In the context of giving a command, it is used only with verbs.

true false C2

When the verb stem ends in 'ㄹ', the 'ㄹ' is dropped before adding '으세요', resulting in '세요'.

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: सही

This is a correct grammatical rule. When a verb stem ends in 'ㄹ', such as in '만들다' (to make), the 'ㄹ' is dropped before adding '으세요', so it becomes '만드세요'.

true false C2

Using ~(으)세요 is always appropriate when speaking to someone significantly older than you, regardless of the social context.

सही! बिलकुल नहीं। सही जवाब: गलत

While ~(으)세요 is an honorific ending, its appropriateness depends on the specific social context and the degree of formality. For very high honorific situations or when addressing someone in a position of extreme seniority, the more formal '-(으)십시오' might be preferred. It's polite but not always the highest level of respect, especially in very formal settings.
