Real-World Usage of '구술하다'
You'll encounter '구술하다' (gusulhada) most frequently in contexts that specifically require or emphasize oral communication, especially in formal or academic settings. It's a word that signals a deliberate act of speaking information aloud.
- Academic Settings
- The most common place to hear '구술하다' is in relation to oral examinations or presentations. Students are often required to '구술하다' their answers or their research findings. For example, a university professor might say, "다음 주에 여러분은 배운 내용을 구술해야 합니다." (Next week, you will have to state what you have learned orally.)
- Job Interviews
- In a job interview, candidates are expected to '구술하다' their skills, experiences, and suitability for the role. The interviewer might ask, "당신의 강점을 구술해 보시겠어요?" (Could you express your strengths orally?)
- Legal and Official Proceedings
- In courtrooms or official hearings, witnesses or individuals may be asked to '구술하다' their statements or testimonies. This is often done for the record, ensuring that the spoken word is captured accurately. A judge might instruct, "증인은 사실 관계를 명확하게 구술해 주십시오." (Witness, please state the facts clearly orally.)
The patient was asked to 구술하다 their symptoms to the doctor.
- Language Learning
- In language learning contexts, especially when practicing speaking skills, instructors might encourage students to '구술하다' their thoughts or responses rather than just writing them. This emphasizes the active use of spoken language.
- Dictation
- The act of dictating, where someone speaks words for another person to write down, is also a form of '구술하다'. For instance, a writer might ask their assistant to listen and transcribe as they '구술하다' their next chapter.
The historian was invited to 구술하다 the events of the war for a documentary.
Avoiding Pitfalls with '구술하다'
Learners of Korean often make mistakes with '구술하다' (gusulhada) by either overusing it in casual contexts or confusing it with more general terms for speaking. Understanding its specific nuance is key to using it correctly.
- Mistake 1: Confusing with '말하다' (malhada)
- '말하다' is the general verb for 'to speak' or 'to say'. '구술하다' is more specific, implying a formal or structured oral expression. Using '구술하다' for a simple greeting like "안녕" (hi) would be incorrect. For example, saying "저는 친구에게 안녕을 구술했어요" (I spoke 'hi' to my friend orally) is unnatural. The correct verb here would be '말했어요'.
- Mistake 2: Overusing in Casual Conversation
- '구술하다' is not typically used for everyday, informal conversations. If you're just chatting with friends, you'd use verbs like '이야기하다' (to talk) or '말하다'. Saying something like "우리는 어제 저녁 식사를 같이 구술했어요" (We expressed dinner together orally yesterday) is very strange. The natural way to say this would be "우리는 어제 저녁 식사를 같이 했어요" (We had dinner together yesterday) or "우리는 어제 저녁 식사를 하면서 이야기를 나눴어요" (We talked while having dinner yesterday).
- Mistake 3: Incorrect Conjugation
- Like any verb, '구술하다' needs to be conjugated correctly based on tense, politeness level, and sentence structure. Forgetting to conjugate or using the wrong ending can lead to grammatical errors. For example, using the base form "저는 발표를 구술하다" (I to state the presentation orally) instead of a conjugated form like "저는 발표를 구술했어요" (I stated the presentation orally) is a common mistake.
Incorrect: I orally said hello to my friend. (나는 친구에게 안녕하세요를 구술했다.)
Correct: I said hello to my friend. (나는 친구에게 안녕하세요라고 말했다.)
- Mistake 4: Using it for internal thoughts
- '구술하다' specifically refers to expressing something *out loud*. It cannot be used for thinking or formulating ideas internally. For example, you cannot say "저는 제 생각을 마음속으로 구술했어요" (I orally expressed my thoughts in my mind). For internal thoughts, you would use verbs like '생각하다' (to think) or '고민하다' (to ponder).
- Mistake 5: Misunderstanding the 'object' of 구술하다
- While you can '구술하다' a specific piece of information (like an answer or a report), it's not always about speaking a single word or phrase. It's about conveying a message or content. For example, you might '구술하다' a story, a presentation, or a testimony. Saying "저는 그의 이름을 구술했어요" (I orally expressed his name) is not wrong, but it's more common and natural to say "저는 그의 이름을 말했어요" (I said his name) unless there's a specific context of formal recitation.
Finding the Right Word: Alternatives to '구술하다'
While '구술하다' (gusulhada) is specific, Korean offers several other verbs related to speaking and expressing. Choosing the right one depends heavily on the context, formality, and nuance you wish to convey.
- 1. 말하다 (malhada) - To speak, to say
- This is the most general verb for speaking. It can be used in almost any situation, from casual conversation to formal speeches.
Usage: Covers a wide range.
Example: "그는 자신의 의견을 말했다." (He stated his opinion.)
Comparison: '구술하다' is more specific to formal or structured oral expression, whereas '말하다' is broader. - 2. 이야기하다 (iyagihada) - To talk, to chat
- This verb implies a more relaxed, conversational tone. It's used for discussions, storytelling, or casual chats.
Usage: Informal to neutral conversations.
Example: "우리는 밤새도록 이야기했다." (We talked all night.)
Comparison: '구술하다' is formal and structured; '이야기하다' is informal and conversational. - 3. 대답하다 (daedapada) - To answer
- This verb specifically refers to responding to a question or prompt. While an answer is often spoken, the focus is on the response itself.
Usage: Responding to questions.
Example: "그는 질문에 대답했다." (He answered the question.)
Comparison: '구술하다' can be used to express an answer orally, but '대답하다' focuses solely on the act of answering, regardless of whether it's spoken or written (though typically spoken in context).
Context: A student is asked to explain a historical event.
Using '구술하다': 학생은 역사적 사건을 구술했다. (The student expressed the historical event orally.) - Emphasizes the formal, structured delivery.
Using '말하다': 학생은 역사적 사건을 말했다. (The student spoke about the historical event.) - More general.
- 4. 발표하다 (balpyohada) - To present
- This verb means 'to present' or 'to announce', typically in a formal setting like a conference, class, or meeting. A presentation inherently involves speaking.
Usage: Formal presentations.
Example: "그녀는 연구 결과를 발표했다." (She presented her research findings.)
Comparison: '구술하다' is the act of speaking the content, while '발표하다' is the overall act of delivering a presentation. - 5. 진술하다 (jinsulhada) - To state, to testify
- This verb is used in formal contexts, especially legal or official ones, to mean 'to state' or 'to testify'. It implies a formal declaration of facts.
Usage: Formal declarations, legal testimony.
Example: "증인은 사건의 전말을 진술했다." (The witness stated the full story of the incident.)
Comparison: '구술하다' can be used to orally deliver a statement or testimony, but '진술하다' specifically refers to the act of stating facts in a formal manner.
How Formal Is It?
豆知識
The character '述' (sul) itself has an interesting etymology. It is composed of '辵' (chok, meaning 'to walk') and '朮' (chul, meaning 'millet' or 'to cultivate'). The combination suggests the idea of 'walking and narrating' or 'cultivating and expressing', implying a gradual and deliberate process of communication.
発音ガイド
- Pronouncing '구' (gu) too short.
- Making the 'l' sound in '술' (sul) too hard or too soft.
- Pronouncing the 'h' in '하다' (hada) too strongly, making it sound like 'ha-da' instead of the softer 'hada'.

使い方
Medium. While not an everyday word, it's common in specific formal contexts.
-
Using '구술하다' for casual greetings or everyday conversation.
→
Use '말하다' (to speak) or '이야기하다' (to talk) for casual conversations. For example, say '안녕하세요라고 말했어요' (I said hello) instead of '안녕하세요를 구술했어요'.
'구술하다' implies a formal or structured oral expression, not casual speech. Using it for simple greetings is unnatural and incorrect.
-
Confusing '구술하다' with '쓰다' (to write).
→
'구술하다' means to speak orally. '쓰다' means to write. If you need to express something verbally, use '구술하다'; if in writing, use '쓰다'.
'구술하다' is exclusively about vocalization. It is the direct opposite of writing.
-
Incorrect conjugation, e.g., using the base form '구술하다' in a sentence.
→
Always conjugate the verb according to tense and politeness level. For example, '저는 답을 <mark class='bg-violet-200 dark:bg-violet-800 px-0.5 rounded'>구술했어요</mark>' (I stated the answer orally).
Korean verbs must be conjugated. Using the dictionary form in a sentence is grammatically incorrect.
-
Using '구술하다' for internal thoughts or silent reading.
→
'구술하다' means to express 'orally'. For internal thoughts, use '생각하다' (to think). For reading aloud, use '읽다' (to read) or '낭독하다' (to read aloud formally).
'구술하다' requires vocalization. It cannot be used for mental processes or silent reading.
-
Overusing '구술하다' when '말하다' or '설명하다' would be more appropriate.
→
Use '구술하다' only when the context specifically demands a formal, structured, or examined oral expression. For general speaking, use '말하다'; for explaining, use '설명하다'.
'구술하다' has a narrower, more specific meaning than general speaking verbs. Misusing it can make your speech sound unnatural.

暗記しよう
記憶術
Imagine someone with a very large 'mouth' (口) trying to 'narrate' (述) a long story. The 'mouth' helps you remember the oral part, and 'narrate' helps with the expression. The Korean pronunciation 'gusulhada' sounds a bit like 'goo-sool-ha-da', where 'goo' could remind you of 'go', as in 'go ahead and speak'.
視覚的連想

語源
The word '구술하다' is derived from the Sino-Korean words '口述' (gusul). '口' (gu) means 'mouth' or 'speak', and '述' (sul) means 'to narrate', 'to tell', or 'to express'. Together, they literally mean 'to narrate with the mouth'. This etymology clearly points to the act of verbal expression.
元の意味： To narrate or express using one's mouth.
Sino-Korean (derived from Chinese characters)文化的な背景
When discussing '구술하다', it's important to remember it's about expressing information, not about gossip or casual chatter. The context should always imply a purpose or requirement for the oral delivery.
In English-speaking cultures, similar concepts exist, such as 'to articulate', 'to express verbally', 'to state', 'to recite', or 'to give an oral account'. The formality and context often dictate the best English equivalent.

よくある質問
10 問'구술하다' (gusulhada) specifically refers to expressing something orally in a structured, formal, or examined manner, such as in an oral exam, presentation, or testimony. '말하다' (malhada) is the general verb for 'to speak' or 'to say' and can be used in any context, from casual conversation to formal speeches. Think of '구술하다' as 'to articulate verbally' or 'to state orally' in a more deliberate way, whereas '말하다' is simply 'to speak'.
'이야기하다' (iyagihada) means 'to talk' or 'to chat' and is used for informal conversations and casual storytelling. '구술하다' is used for formal, structured, or examined oral expressions. For example, you would '이야기하다' with friends about your day, but you would '구술하다' your answers in an oral exam.
No, '구술하다' strictly means to express something 'orally' or 'verbally'. It is the opposite of writing. The verb for writing is '쓰다' (sseuda).
Common situations include oral examinations (구술 시험), job interviews (구술 면접), formal presentations (구술 발표), giving testimony in court (증언을 구술하다), and dictating information (보고서를 구술하다). It's about a purposeful and often formal act of speaking.
'구술하다' is a regular verb. You conjugate it like other verbs ending in '-하다'. For example: Present polite informal: 구술해요 (gusulhaeyo), Present formal polite: 구술합니다 (gusulhamnida), Past polite informal: 구술했어요 (gusulhaesseoyo), Past formal polite: 구술했습니다 (gusulhaetseumnida).
'구술하다' itself is neutral. Its connotation depends on the context. For instance, '구술하다' an answer in an exam is a neutral or positive action, while being forced to '구술하다' information against one's will might have negative implications. The word itself simply describes the act of oral expression.
While reading aloud involves speaking, '구술하다' usually implies expressing one's own thoughts, knowledge, or prepared statements rather than simply reciting text written by someone else. For reading aloud, verbs like '읽다' (ilkda - to read) or '낭독하다' (nangdokada - to read aloud formally) are more appropriate.
The noun form is '구술' (gusul), which means 'oral expression' or 'recitation'.
Dictation is a direct application of '구술하다'. When someone dictates, they are '구술하다'-ing the text for someone else to write down. For example, '작가는 비서에게 보고서를 구술했습니다' (The writer dictated the report to the secretary).
No, '구술하다' is generally not used in everyday, casual conversation. It's reserved for situations that require a more formal, structured, or deliberate oral expression. For casual talk, you would use words like '말하다' (malhada) or '이야기하다' (iyagihada).
