Overview

휴대폰 사진 갤러리를 보면서 «와, 고양이 흐릿한 사진 50장이나 진짜 필요 없네»라고 생각해 본 적 있나요? 무언가를 없애고 싶다는 바로 그 느낌이 throw away가 필요한 순간입니다. 이것은 영어에서 가장 흔하고 유용한 구동사 중 하나이며, 어디서나 듣게 될 거예요.
throw away는 간단히 말해 무언가를 버린다는 뜻입니다. 쓰레기이거나, 고장 났거나, 그냥 더 이상 원하지 않기 때문에 없애는 거죠. keep(보관하다)의 반대말로 생각하면 됩니다.
방 청소, 디지털 라이프 정리, 또는 그냥 오래된 바나나 껍질을 처리할 때 등, 청소할 때 사용하는 단골 표현입니다. 낡은 티셔츠 같은 물리적인 물건을 throw away할 수도 있고, 기회 같은 추상적인 것도 throw away할 수 있습니다. 정말 다재다능한 표현이죠.
핵심 아이디어는 소유하고 있던 무언가를 쓰레기통이나 다른 처리 장소로 옮기는 것입니다. 복잡한 숨은 뜻은 없으니 안심해도 되겠죠?

How This Grammar Works

throw away는 타동사 구동사입니다. 즉, 목적어가 필요하다는 뜻입니다. 그냥
나는 throw away
라고 말할 수 없습니다.
사람들은
throw away하는데?
라고 물을 겁니다. 무엇을 버리는지 구체적으로 말해야 합니다. 예를 들어,
시험이 끝나면 낡은 노트를 throw away한다.
throwaway라는 단어가 한 팀처럼 작용하여 이 의미를 만들어냅니다.
throw는 팔로 무언가를 던진다는 뜻이고, away는 방향(자신으로부터 멀리)을 나타냅니다. 함께 쓰여 '버리다'라는 의미가 됩니다.
한 가지 아주 중요한 점은 throw away가 분리 가능하다는 것입니다. 즉, 목적어를 구동사 중간에 넣을 수 있다는 뜻입니다.
나는 threw the old pizza away
라고 말할 수도 있고,
나는 threw away the old pizza
라고 말할 수도 있습니다.
둘 다 완벽해요! 하지만 까다로운 규칙이 하나 있습니다. 목적어가 대명사(it, them, him, her 등)일 경우, 반드시 중간에 와야 합니다.
나는 threw it away
라고 말해야 합니다.
나는 threw away it
이라고 말할 수 없습니다. 원어민에게는 정말 이상하게 들립니다.
신발 위에 양말을 신는 것처럼 약간 어색한 느낌이죠.

Formation Pattern

1
throw away로 문장을 만드는 방법은 다음과 같습니다. 표준적인 주어-동사-목적어 패턴을 따릅니다.
2
주어로 시작합니다. 버리는 행위를 하는 사람입니다. (I, you, my mom, the company 등)
3
동사 throw를 추가합니다. (throw, throws, threw, have thrown처럼 올바른 시제로 활용)
4
목적어를 추가합니다. 버리는 물건입니다. 이것은 away의 *앞*이나 *뒤*에 올 수 있습니다. 예를 들어, the broken chair.
5
부사 away를 추가합니다. 3단계의 목적어가 it과 같은 대명사였다면, 목적어는 반드시 away 앞에 와야 한다는 것을 기억하세요.
6
실제 예를 봅시다:
7
Present Simple: I throw away old magazines.
8
With object in middle: I throw the old magazines away.
9
With a pronoun: I throw them away. (정답!)
10
With a pronoun (Wrong):I throw away them. (이렇게 하지 마세요!)

When To Use It

그럼 이 표현은 실생활에서 언제 쓸까요? 항상 씁니다!
  • Cleaning Up: 가장 명백한 경우입니다. 방을 청소할 때, 쓰레기, 낡은 종이, 그리고 필요 없는 모든 것을 throw away합니다.
    책상에 있는 이 빈 커피컵들 다 throw away해야겠어.
  • Food: 점심 다 먹었나요? 포장지를 throw away합니다. 냉장고에 냄새가 좀 의심스러운 음식이 있나요? 당연히 throw it away해야죠.
    이 우유 지난주에 유통기한 지났어. throwing it away할 거야.
  • Getting Rid of Unwanted Items: 이사를 가거나 봄맞이 대청소를 할 수도 있죠(마리 콘도에게 경의를!). 낡은 옷, 고장 난 전자제품, 더 이상 마음에 들지 않는 가구 등을 throw away할 수 있습니다.
    우리는 새 매트리스를 샀을 때 낡은 매트리스를 threw our old mattress away했다.
  • Metaphorical Use (Wasting something): 이건 좀 더 고급 표현이지만, 아주 흔하게 쓰입니다. 기회, 경력, 재능을 throw away할 수 있습니다. 낭비했다는 뜻이죠.
    그는 뛰어난 음악가였지만, 모든 것을 threw it all away했다.
    약간 극적이긴 하지만, 요점은 전달됩니다. 친구가 콘서트 황금 티켓을 갖고 있는데 잠만 자서 놓친 경우처럼요. 그는 좋은 기회를 threw away한 거죠!

Common Mistakes

«나 아직 배우는 중이야!»라고 외치는 듯한 작은 실수들을 막아봅시다.
  • Throw away it: 앞서 언급했듯이, 이게 가장 큰 실수입니다. 대명사는 항상 중간에 넣으세요: throw it away. 구동사 클럽의 절대적인 규칙입니다.
  • Confusing with take out: 집 안의 쓰레기통에 무언가를 넣어서 throw something away합니다. 집 안에서 가득 찬 쓰레기봉투를 수거를 위해 밖의 쓰레기통으로 가져갈 때 쓰레기를 take out합니다. 미묘하지만 중요한 차이입니다.
  • Using throw alone: 그냥
    나는 사과를 threw했다
    고 말하면, 공중으로 던졌다는 뜻입니다. 아마 캐치볼을 하고 있었을지도 모르죠. 버렸다는 뜻이라면 away가 필요합니다. away가 '버린다'는 신호입니다.

Contrast With Similar Patterns

영어에는 무언가를 없애는 것에 대해 말하는 몇 가지 방법이 있습니다. 혼동을 풀어봅시다.
  • Throw away vs. Throw out: 많은 경우, 이 둘은 같은 의미이며 서로 바꿔 쓸 수 있습니다.
    나는 threw away the trash
    =
    나는 threw out the trash.
    차이가 없습니다. 하지만 throw out에는 몇 가지 추가적인 의미가 있습니다. 아이디어를 throw out(거절하다)하거나 사람을 throw out(어떤 장소에서 강제로 내쫓다)할 수 있습니다.
    경비원이 시끄러운 손님을 threw away했다
    고는 말하지 않습니다. 그는 그를 threw him out했습니다. 그러니 확실하지 않을 때는 쓰레기에 대해 throw away를 사용하세요. 그게 더 안전한 선택입니다.
  • Throw away vs. Get rid of: Get rid ofthrow away의 훌륭한 동의어입니다. 좀 더 일반적이죠. throw away는 종종 쓰레기통에 넣는 것을 암시합니다. Get rid of도 그럴 수 있지만, 팔거나, 기부하거나, 파괴하는 것을 의미할 수도 있습니다. 예를 들어,
    나는 내 낡은 차를 get rid of해야 해.
    아마 팔고 싶다는 뜻이지, 거대한 쓰레기통에 넣고 싶다는 뜻은 아닐 겁니다. 물론 그것도 볼만한 광경이겠지만요.

자주 묻는 질문 (8)

No. In English, when a phrasal verb is separable and the object is a pronoun (it, them, me, you, him, her, us), the pronoun **must** go in the middle.

They are 99% the same. 'Throw out' is slightly more common in American English and can also mean to physically remove someone from a place.

It is neutral. It's fine for speaking and most emails. In very formal academic writing, use `discard` or `dispose of`.

Only metaphorically, like 'throwing away a relationship'. You shouldn't use it to mean 'firing' or 'breaking up with' someone directly.

It's a comment made in a casual way, often in a play or movie, that isn't meant to seem important but might be funny or significant.

It is irregular. The forms are `throw` (present), `threw` (past), and `thrown` (past participle).

Yes, it means you wasted your money on something useless.

It describes a culture where people buy things and discard them quickly instead of repairing them.
