Review Summary

  • Barev
  • Anuns [Name] e

자주 하는 실수

Students often add an extra vowel. The correct form uses the possessive suffix '-s'.

Wrong: Anunim [Name] e
정답: Anuns [Name] e

Using the informal 'es' instead of the polite 'ek' is common but can be seen as rude to strangers.

Wrong: Vonts es
정답: Vonts ek

Shortening the word too much makes it sound incomplete. Always use the full form for clarity.

Wrong: Shnorhakal
정답: Shnorhakalutyun
