你将学到什么
Ready to take your Korean conversations to the next level? This chapter is all about giving you the power to articulate your intentions, plans, and the desired results of your actions with native-like fluency. No more simply stating what you're doing – you'll master how to clearly communicate *why* you're doing it and *what outcome* you're aiming for!
We'll kick things off by making your movements purposeful with 러/으러. This handy ending allows you to explain your reason for going or coming somewhere, like saying, "I'm going to the library *to study*.
Next, get ready to share your future with 려고/으려고, the perfect tool for expressing your personal intentions and plans, such as, I'm planning *to meet friends* this weekend."
Then, we dive into the versatile world of connecting actions to their results using -게 and ~도록. You'll learn to say so that or in order to, enabling you to explain, for example, "I'll study hard *so that* I pass the exam,or even express doing something to an extreme degree, likeI ran *until* I was exhausted." By the end of this chapter, you won't just be speaking Korean; you'll be conveying your thoughts and motivations with precision and natural flow. Imagine planning a trip with Korean friends, explaining your study goals, or simply detailing the purpose behind your everyday actions. You'll sound more expressive, more confident, and truly B1! Let's get started!

I intend to, I plan to, or "I'm going to."so that, in order to), or an extent. It attaches to a verb or adjective stem. When expressing purpose or result, it means so that [something happens]or
in a way that [something happens].
so that, in order to) or an extent (until, to the point where). It attaches to a verb or adjective stem. It often implies a goal or a limit. While similar to -게 for purpose, -도록 strongly emphasizes the *result* or *extent* of an action.
Common Mistakes
- 1✗ Wrong: 저는 커피를 마시러 공부해요. (I study to drink coffee.)
- 1✗ Wrong: 빨리 끝내려고 노력하세요. (Please try to finish quickly.)
to the point of achievingor
so that something happens.-게 (빨리 끝나게 노력하세요) is also possible but -도록 is very common with 노력하다.
- 1✗ Wrong: 문이 열리게 기다렸어요. (I waited so that the door would open.)
until a specific event happens, -도록 or -을 때까지 are more precise. -도록 would be 문이 열리도록 기다렸어요.

Quick FAQ
How is 러/으러 different from -고 싶어서?
러/으러 explicitly states the *purpose for moving* (going/coming) to a location, while -고 싶어서 states a *desire as a reason* for any action.
Can 려고/으려고 be used with commands or suggestions?
Generally no, 려고/으려고 expresses *one's own* intention. For commands/suggestions, you'd use other forms like -세요 or -읍시다.
What's the main difference between -게 and -도록 when expressing so that?
Both can express purpose. -게 often describes *how* something is done to achieve a result, or simply the result itself. -도록 often emphasizes reaching a *specific goal or extent*, and is common with verbs like 노력하다 (to try) or 하다 (to do).

常见错误
You don't need '려고 해요' when using '러' with motion verbs. It's redundant to say 'plan to go to study'.
Use '려고' for personal intent. '-도록' is better for stating a goal or a state achieved by effort.
When describing doing something until a point of exhaustion, '도록' is the natural choice for intensity.
