돈을 받다

doneul batda

When you hear Koreans say, '돈을 받다,' they're talking about receiving money. The word '돈' (don) means money, and '받다' (batda) means to receive or to get. So, put them together, and you have 'to receive money.' This phrase is used in many everyday situations, like getting your salary, receiving change, or getting money back from a friend. It's a fundamental phrase for talking about financial transactions in Korean. Remember it for when you need to talk about getting some cash!

When you hear 돈을 받다 (doneul batda), it means someone is receiving money. Think of it as getting paid or having money given to you. This phrase is very common in everyday Korean when talking about salaries, payments, or even just receiving a gift of money.

For example, if you work, you 돈을 받다 for your efforts. If a friend repays a loan, you would also 돈을 받다. It's a straightforward way to express the action of getting money in various situations.

When Koreans say 돈을 받다, it means they are receiving money. This is a versatile phrase that can be used in many situations. For example, if someone paid you for a service, you would say you 돈을 받다. It's also used if you get your salary or if someone gives you money as a gift. So, it simply means 'to receive money' or 'to be given money' in a general sense.

Now that you know what 돈을 받다 (to receive money) means, let's look at how you'll actually hear and use this phrase in everyday Korean situations. This isn't just about textbooks; it's about real life.

§ At Work: Getting Paid

When you're working, a common topic is, surprise, surprise, getting paid! 돈을 받다 is exactly what you'll use to talk about receiving your salary, payment for a service, or even a bonus.

이번 달 월급을 받았어요.

Meaning
I received this month's salary.

일한 만큼 돈을 받았어요.

Meaning
I received money for the work I did.

§ At School: Scholarships and Allowances

Students often talk about receiving money too. This could be for scholarships, allowances from parents, or even money from part-time jobs. You'll hear 돈을 받다 in these contexts as well.

장학금을 받아서 학비 부담이 줄었어요.

Meaning
I received a scholarship, so my tuition burden decreased.

부모님께 용돈을 받아요.

Meaning
I receive an allowance from my parents.

§ In the News: Financial Reports and Aid

When you watch or read the news in Korean, especially about economics, business, or government aid, you'll definitely encounter 돈을 받다. It's used when talking about companies receiving investment, countries receiving aid, or people receiving financial support.

회사가 정부에서 지원금을 받았습니다.

Meaning
The company received financial aid from the government.

피해 주민들이 구호품과 함께 현금을 받았습니다.

Meaning
Affected residents received cash along with relief supplies.

§ General Conversations: Loans, Gifts, and More

Beyond these specific environments, 돈을 받다 is used in general conversations whenever money is received, regardless of the reason.

  • From family/friends: Getting money as a gift (e.g., birthday, New Year's) or borrowing from someone.

  • From banks: Taking out a loan.

  • Any transaction: Receiving money back for a return, or as change.

친구에게 빌려준 돈을 드디어 받았어요.

Meaning
I finally received the money I lent to my friend.

As you can see, 돈을 받다 is a very common and versatile phrase. It's essential for talking about anything related to receiving money in Korean, whether it's your paycheck, a scholarship, or even a casual gift.

§ Mistakes people make with 돈을 받다

Learning Korean often involves understanding the nuances of how verbs interact with different particles and situations. The phrase 돈을 받다 (to receive money) seems straightforward, but there are a few common pitfalls that English speakers encounter. Let's look at these so you can avoid them.

§ Mistake 1: Confusing 받다 with 얻다 or 얻어오다

While both 받다 and 얻다 can mean 'to get' or 'to obtain,' they are not always interchangeable, especially with money. 받다 specifically implies receiving something that is given to you, often with the connotation of being a payment, a gift, or something that is due. 얻다 is more general and can mean to acquire something through effort, luck, or by finding it.

DEFINITION
돈을 받다: To receive money (given by someone, as a payment, gift, etc.)
DEFINITION
돈을 얻다: To obtain money (more generally, perhaps by finding it, or winning it)

월급을 받았어요. (I received my salary.)

길에서 돈을 얻었어요. (I found money on the street.)

§ Mistake 2: Incorrect Particle Usage with the Giver

When indicating who gives the money, students sometimes get confused with the particles. With 받다, you usually use ~에게서 (from person) or ~한테서 (from person, more casual) or ~한테. While ~에게 or ~한테 can indicate the recipient of an action, when you are the one receiving, you specify the source with the 'from' particles.

친구한테서 돈을 받았어요. (I received money from my friend.)

회사에서 돈을 받았어요. (I received money from the company. - For organizations, use ~에서.)

§ Mistake 3: Overusing '을/를' with money

While 돈을 받다 is the correct structure, sometimes learners might try to add another object particle '을/를' in a sentence where it's not needed. Just remember that '돈' is the direct object of '받다'.

아르바이트 해서 돈을 받았어요. (I worked part-time and received money.)

Don't try to add another '을/를' like '저는 돈을 월급을 받았어요' (Incorrect). '월급' (salary) is a type of '돈', so you'd say '월급을 받았어요' or '돈을 받았어요'.

§ Mistake 4: Not understanding the passive implication

받다 inherently carries a passive meaning in the sense of 'to be given.' This is important because in English, we often say 'I got money' which can be ambiguous (did you find it, earn it, or were you given it?). In Korean, 돈을 받다 clearly means you were the recipient of someone else's action of giving.

  • Active (giving): 돈을 주다 (to give money)

  • Passive (receiving): 돈을 받다 (to receive money)

엄마가 저에게 돈을 줬어요. (Mom gave money to me.)

저는 엄마한테서 돈을 받았어요. (I received money from Mom.)

§ Mistake 5: Using it for non-monetary 'receiving' in certain contexts

While 받다 is used for receiving many things (gifts, letters, compliments), it's crucial to remember our focus here is on money. The phrase 돈을 받다 is specific. Don't try to substitute '돈' with other things in a way that doesn't make sense or isn't natural.

칭찬을 받았어요. (I received a compliment.)

This is correct. The point is to be mindful of context when using 받다 with various objects. For money, it's always 돈을 받다.

Fun Fact

The verb '받다' is a common and versatile verb in Korean, used in many contexts beyond just receiving money, such as '선물을 받다' (to receive a gift) or '상을 받다' (to receive an award).

How to Use It

돈을 받다 literally translates to 'receive money'. It's a common and straightforward way to say you are getting money from someone or something. You can use it in various situations, like getting your salary, receiving payment for a service, or even getting money as a gift.

For example, if you say 월급을 받아요 (wolgeupeul badayo), it means 'I receive my salary.' Or, if a friend owes you money and pays you back, you might say 친구한테 돈을 받았어요 (chinguhante doneul badasseoyo), meaning 'I received money from my friend.'

Common Mistakes

A common mistake learners make is trying to use a more direct translation of 'to get paid' with different verbs. While other verbs might seem to fit, 돈을 받다 is the most natural and widely understood expression for 'to receive money' or 'to be paid' in everyday Korean. Avoid overcomplicating it with other verbs like 얻다 (eotda) or 가지다 (gajida) when the context is specifically about receiving money. These verbs have broader meanings and might not convey the same nuance as 돈을 받다.
