토스트

토스트 (toseuteu) means 'toast' in English. It's a common loanword, so it sounds very similar to the English word.

You can use it just like you'd use 'toast' in English. For example, '아침에 토스트를 먹었어요.' (Achime toseuteureul meogeosseoyo.) means 'I ate toast in the morning.'

No, not necessarily! While it's common for breakfast, you can eat 토스트 any time. Many cafes sell various kinds of toast as snacks or light meals.

Yes, absolutely! You'll find things like 길거리 토스트 (gilgeori toseuteu, street toast) which is a popular savory sandwich-like toast, or sweet toasts with jam or fruit.

You could say '토스트 주세요.' (Toseuteu juseyo.) which means 'Please give me toast.' or '토스트 있어요?' (Toseuteu isseoyo?) meaning 'Do you have toast?'

It generally refers to bread that has been toasted. However, in Korea, especially with '길거리 토스트', it can often imply a filled toasted sandwich.

It's pronounced 'toh-seu-teu'. The 't' sound is a bit softer than in English, and the 'eu' vowel is like the 'u' in 'but', but without the 't' sound at the end.

Yes, it's very common, especially when talking about food, breakfast, or cafe menus.

No, that's a different meaning of 'toast' in English. For a celebratory drink, you would use words like '건배' (geonbae) in Korean, which means 'cheers' or 'toasting'.

You might hear '토스트 굽다' (toseuteu gupda), which means 'to toast bread' or 'to grill toast'. For example, '빵을 토스트로 구웠어요.' (Ppangeul toseuteuro guwosseoyo.) 'I toasted the bread.'
