This isn't just learning; it's transforming your Korean into an instrument of persuasive elegance.

How This Grammar Works

This chapter introduces you to a set of highly formal and nuanced connectives, each designed to elevate your expression in Korean. First, -건대 (Korean Connective: 'As I See It') is used to express an opinion or judgment that is based on observation, consideration, or a heartfelt wish. It implies a deeper, more reflective process than a simple I think. For example, «제가 보건대, 이 계획은 성공할 것입니다» (As I see it, this plan will succeed) conveys a considered judgment.
Next, -되 (The Formal 'But': Using -되 for Provisos) functions as a formal connective meaning 'provided that,' 'on the condition that,' or 'although.' It's perfect for stating a condition or limitation in formal contexts. For instance, «자료를 제공하되, 외부 유출은 금합니다» (We will provide the data, provided that external leakage is prohibited). This clearly sets a formal proviso.
Moving on, -거니와 (Elegant Additions: Beyond 'Not Only') is a sophisticated way to add information, emphasizing that the preceding statement is true and the following one is also true, often with a sense of accumulation or reinforcement. It goes beyond a simple and or also, implying a stronger connection or additional weight. «그는 똑똑하거니와 성실하기까지 하다» (He is not only smart, but also diligent) showcases this elegant addition.
Finally, we differentiate between -려니와 (Formal Addition: -려니와) and -(으)ㄹ 뿐만 아니라. While both mean
not only... but also,
-려니와 is markedly more literary and archaic, often found in classical texts, formal speeches, or highly stylized writing.
«그 풍경이 아름다우려니와 공기마저 맑았다» (Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the air was also clear) illustrates its usage. In contrast, -(으)ㄹ 뿐만 아니라 is the common, modern equivalent for
not only... but also,
suitable for a wider range of formal and semi-formal contexts.
Mastering these forms allows for exceptional precision in your C2 Korean grammar.

Common Mistakes

  1. 1Wrong: «저는 그렇게 생각하건대, 그 제안은 좋지 않아요.» (I think that way, so that proposal isn't good.)
Correct: «제가 판단하건대, 그 제안은 실현 가능성이 낮습니다.» (As I judge, that proposal has low feasibility.)
*Explanation:* -건대 implies a deeply considered observation or judgment, not a simple 'I think.' It's often paired with verbs like 보다 (to see), 생각하다 (to think/consider), 판단하다 (to judge), 바라다 (to hope) to convey a more profound, reflective opinion. Using it with a casual thought diminishes its formal weight.
  1. 1Wrong: «회의에 참석했지만, 발언은 안 됐어요.» (I attended the meeting, but I couldn't speak.)
Correct: «회의에 참석하되, 발언권은 부여되지 않습니다.» (You may attend the meeting, provided that speaking rights are not granted.)
*Explanation:* -되 is used for formal provisos, conditions, or concessions. While -지만 (but) and -는데 (but/and) can introduce a contrast, they lack the formal, conditional nuance of -되. Using -되 correctly establishes a formal boundary or condition.
  1. 1Wrong: «그녀는 똑똑하고 친절해요.» (She is smart and kind.)
Correct: «그녀는 똑똑하거니와 친절하기까지 합니다.» (Not only is she smart, but she is also kind.)
*Explanation:* While «똑똑하고 친절해요» is grammatically correct, it's a simple conjunction. -거니와 adds a sophisticated layer, emphasizing the accumulation of positive attributes and giving more weight to the statement, implying
not only X, but also Y, which is equally or more significant.
It elevates the rhetorical impact.

Quick FAQ

Q

How does -건대 differ from simply saying «저는 생각합니다» (I think)?

-건대 implies a more deeply considered, reflective judgment or observation, often based on thorough analysis or a heartfelt wish, rather than a simple personal opinion. It carries greater weight and formality.

Q

Is -되 always interchangeable with other 'but' connectives like -지만 or -는데?

No. While they all express some form of contrast or concession, -되 specifically denotes a formal proviso, condition, or limitation, making it distinct from the more general contrasting functions of -지만 or -는데.

Q

When should I choose -거니와 over the more common -(으)ㄹ 뿐만 아니라?

Use -거니와 when you want to add a layer of sophistication and emphasize the accumulation or reinforcement of points in a more elegant, perhaps slightly more literary way, beyond just stating

not only... but also.
It often implies that the second point is a natural extension or a particularly noteworthy addition to the first.

Q

Are these C2 Korean grammar patterns commonly used in everyday informal conversations?

Generally, no. These patterns are characteristic of formal speech, academic writing, legal documents, political discourse, and literary texts. Using them in casual conversation might sound overly stiff or even pretentious.

Cultural Context

These C2-level Korean grammar patterns are primarily found in formal settings, reflecting the Korean emphasis on precise and respectful communication in professional, academic, and official contexts. Using -건대 demonstrates a speaker's thoughtful consideration, while -되 is crucial for clearly stipulating conditions, especially in legal or policy discussions. -거니와 allows for eloquent persuasion by building robust arguments, often seen in speeches or scholarly articles.
The distinction between -려니와 and -(으)ㄹ 뿐만 아니라 highlights an awareness of stylistic registers, with the former evoking a classical, somewhat poetic tone. Mastering these forms signals not just linguistic proficiency, but also cultural sensitivity to appropriate registers.

Review Summary

  • Verb stem + -건대
  • Verb stem + -되
  • Verb/Adj + -거니와
  • Verb/Adj + -려니와

よくある間違い

The suffix -건대 is usually attached to verbs of perception like 보다 (to see) or 듣다 (to hear), not 생각하다.

Wrong: 제 생각하건대...
正解: 제가 보건대...

-되 is for linking a proviso within the same logical flow, not starting a new sentence with a contradiction.

Wrong: 하되, 그것은 안 됩니다.
正解: 수행하되, 그 조건은 지켜야 합니다.

-거니와 attaches directly to the verb/adjective stem, not after the connective -고.

Wrong: 예쁘고 거니와...
正解: 예쁘거니와...

よくある質問 (6)

いいえ、あまり使いません。ニュースや論文、スピーチなどで使われる非常にフォーマルな表現です。友達に使うと少し演劇的すぎるかもしれません。 «내가 보건대 너는 배가 고픈 것 같아.»
はい、大丈夫です。 「내가 보건대」や「제가 보건대」のように使われますが、主語が省略されることも多いです。 «제가 보건대 상황이 좋지 않습니다.»
はい、可能ですが非常に稀で文学的な表現(例:하였으되)になります。現代韓国語では語幹に直接つける形が一般的ですよ。
「〜するが(ただし〜)」「〜したとしても」という、条件付きの強い逆接・譲歩に近いです。
いいえ、少し違います。どちらも事実を繋ぎますが、 «-거니와» はよりフォーマルで、前の事実を認めた上でさらに重要な情報を付け加える強調のニュアンスがあります。
はい、過去の語幹に付けます。例えば «공부했거니와» (勉強しただけでなく…)のように使います。
