팁과 요령 (3)

💡

Drop the pronoun

You don't need 'Аз' or 'Ти' every time. The verb ending tells the story.

💡

Drop the Pronoun

In Bulgarian, you can drop 'Аз', 'Ти', etc., because the verb ending tells you who is speaking.

💡

Don't translate 'am'

Review Summary

  • Stem + а/я
  • Stem + е
  • Stem + и

자주 하는 실수

You added the 'you' ending (-ш) to the 'I' form. Always match the ending with the pronoun.

Wrong: Аз не четаш.
정답: Аз не чета.

When asking a question, use the second person form. It sounds unnatural to ask yourself in this way.

Wrong: Пия ли аз кафе?
정답: Пиеш ли кафе?

In Bulgarian, 'не' must come directly before the verb, not after it.

Wrong: Аз пия не кафе.
정답: Аз не пия кафе.
