다니시다 30秒了解
- 다니시다 is the honorific version of the verb 다니다, meaning to attend or go to a place regularly, such as work or school.
- It is used only when the subject of the sentence is someone you respect, like a boss, teacher, or elderly family member.
- Commonly conjugated as 다니세요 (polite) or 다니십니다 (formal), it implies a habitual routine rather than a one-time trip.
- Never use this word to describe your own actions, as it is grammatically and culturally incorrect to honor yourself in Korean.
The Korean verb 다니시다 is the honorific form of the base verb 다니다. At its core, it describes the act of going and coming back repeatedly to a specific location, typically for a fixed purpose such as employment, education, or religious practice. Because it includes the honorific suffix -시-, it is used exclusively when the subject of the sentence—the person doing the 'attending'—is someone to whom the speaker wishes to show respect, such as a boss, a teacher, a parent, or an elder.
- Habitual Movement
- Unlike '가다' (to go), which refers to a one-way trip, 다니시다 implies a cycle. It suggests a routine or a state of belonging to an institution.
- Honorific Nuance
- The addition of '-시-' elevates the subject. You would never use this to describe your own actions; doing so would be a major linguistic faux pas in Korean culture.
- Social Context
- It is most frequently heard in professional settings or when inquiring about the well-being and daily routines of respected family members.
"우리 아버지는 아직도 회사에 다니십니다."
Understanding this word requires grasping the Korean concept of 'Chem-myeon' (face) and social hierarchy. When you ask a senior, "어디 다니세요?" (Where do you go/work?), you are acknowledging their active role in society while maintaining a respectful distance. The word encompasses the physical act of commuting and the social act of being part of a collective.
"선생님께서는 어느 교회에 다니시나요?"
Which church do you (Teacher) attend?
In modern Seoul, this word is the standard way to ask about someone's career path without being overly blunt. Instead of asking 'What is your job?', asking 'Where do you attend?' is considered more polite and indirect, which is a hallmark of high-level Korean communication.
Using 다니시다 correctly involves mastering the conjugation of the honorific suffix -시- across various tenses and politeness levels. Since this is an honorific verb, it almost always appears in polite (해요체) or formal (하십시오체) endings. It is rarely seen in the plain form (해라체) unless in written literature describing a respected figure.
1. Present Tense Conjugations
The most common forms you will encounter are:
- 다니세요 (Polite): The standard way to ask or state something in daily conversation. (e.g., 부모님은 등산을 다니세요 - My parents go hiking.)
- 다니십니다 (Formal): Used in business presentations, news reports, or when speaking to someone of much higher rank.
- 다니시는군요 (Exclamatory): Used when you just found out where someone works or goes.
2. Past Tense Conjugations
When discussing where someone used to work or a school they graduated from:
- 다니셨어요: "Did you attend...?" or "They attended..."
- 다니셨습니다: The formal past tense, often found in biographies or formal introductions.
Structure: [Place] + 에 + 다니시다
Example: 대학교에 다니시다 (To attend university - honorific)
3. Asking Questions
When asking a superior about their habits, 다니시다 is the safest choice. It avoids the directness of 'do you do X?' and frames it as 'is it your honorable habit to do X?'.
- Work/Career
- 직장에 다니세요? (Do you work at an office?)
- Hobbies
- 요즘도 수영장에 다니세요? (Do you still go to the swimming pool?)
You will encounter 다니시다 in environments where social hierarchy is clearly defined or where professional etiquette is paramount. It is a staple of the Korean 'honorific atmosphere'.
1. In the Corporate World
In a Korean office, employees rarely refer to the CEO or senior managers with plain verbs. When a junior employee talks about the 'Sajang-nim' (CEO), they will say, "사장님께서는 매일 아침 일찍 회사에 다니십니다." Even if the CEO is not present, the honorific is used to show respect for their position.
2. Family Gatherings
During holidays like Chuseok or Seollal, relatives often ask about each other's parents. A common question is, "아버님께서는 요즘도 운동 다니세요?" (Is your father still going out for exercise these days?). Using the honorific here shows respect to the listener's family.
"할머니께서는 일요일마다 성당에 다니십니다."
3. Service Industry
If you are at a high-end gym or a private academy (Hagwon), the staff might ask you, "전에 다른 학원에 다니셨나요?" (Did you attend another academy before?). By using the honorific, the staff member treats the customer with the highest level of professional courtesy.
Because Korean honorifics are complex, learners often make specific errors with 다니시다. Avoiding these will make your Korean sound much more natural and culturally aware.
1. Self-Honorification (The Biggest Mistake)
Incorrect: "저는 삼성전자에 다니십니다."
In Korean, you never raise yourself. Using '-시-' for your own actions sounds incredibly arrogant or simply confused. You must use the plain form: "저는 삼성전자에 다닙니다."
2. Confusing '다니시다' with '가시다'
While both involve movement, they are not interchangeable. 가시다 (honorific of 가다) is for a specific trip to a destination. 다니시다 is for a repetitive, habitual attendance. If you say "사장님이 병원에 가셨어요," it means he went to the hospital (perhaps for an emergency). If you say "사장님이 병원에 다니세요," it means he is receiving ongoing treatment or works there.
- 가시다 (Go)
- Focus on the destination or the act of leaving.
- 다니시다 (Attend)
- Focus on the frequency and the relationship with the place.
3. Incorrect Particle Usage
Learners often use the object particle '-를/을' with 다니시다. However, 다니시다 (like 다니다) usually takes the static location particle -에. While '-를' can be used in specific poetic or emphasized contexts (e.g., 길을 다니다), '-에' is the standard for institutions.
"학교를 다니시다" (Acceptable/Common) vs "학교에 다니시다" (Standard/Correct)
To truly master 다니시다, you should understand how it relates to other verbs of movement and employment in the honorific register.
1. 출근하시다 (To go to work - Honorific)
While 다니시다 means you are employed somewhere, 출근하시다 specifically refers to the act of arriving at the office for the day. You 'attend' (다니시다) a company, but you 'go to work' (출근하시다) at 9 AM.
2. 재직하시다 (To be in office/employed - Formal)
This is a very formal, Sino-Korean word (在職). It is used in official documents or formal introductions to state that someone is currently holding a position. 다니시다 is more colloquial and active.
3. 통학하시다 (To commute to school - Honorific)
Specifically used for students commuting from home to school. If a professor asks a student's parent about the student, they might use this, though 다니시다 is still the most versatile choice.
| Word | Nuance |
|---|---|
| 다니시다 | General attendance, habitual going. |
| 가시다 | One-time movement to a place. |
| 방문하시다 | To visit (formal/honorific). |
