Question 171

저는 10분 동안 걸었어요

Answer 171

I walked for (a period of) 10 minutes

________

동안 is a very useful word that can be used to indicate how long an action occurs. It is typically placed after a duration of time, for example:

2분 = 2 minutes
2분 동안 = for 2 minutes

동안 can also be used to indicate that an action occurs “while” another action occurs. You will learn about that application in Lesson 33 after learning some key grammar points in the lessons to come.

Those can then be added into sentences to indicate how long one does something for. Notice also that no additional particle is added to 동안. One would think that 에 should be added, but it is not.

While the translation of “동안” in these examples is usually “for”, in essence, what you are doing is stating “for that period of time.” Understanding this will help you understand later usages of “동안” in future lessons. For example:

저는 10분 동안 걸었어요 = I walked for (a period of) 10 minutes

저는 30분 동안 공부했어요 = I studied for (a period of) 30 minutes

저는 이틀 동안 안 잤어요 = I didn’t sleep for two days

__________________

Talking about minutes is easy because you always simply use 분. For example:

3시 20분 means “3:20”, and
20분 동안 means “for 20 minutes”

When talking about hours, however, 시 is used when talking about the hour on a clock, whereas 시간 is used when counting hours. Notice the difference between these two sets:

3시 = 3:00
세 시 = Three o’clock

3시간 동안 = for 3 hours
세 시간 동안 = for three hours

Remember that pure Korean numbers are used when talking about hours. I usually write out the Korean word when I’m referring to an amount of hours as in the examples below. For example:

저는 세 시간 동안 잤어요 = I slept for 3 hours

저는 한 시간 동안 달렸어요 = I ran for one hour

Question 175

저는 한 시간 동안 달렸어요

Answer 175

I ran for one hour

I watched TV for two hours yesterday

*Notice that 보다 (to see) is used when watching something. You can also use 보다 when you watch a performance or concert, or similar things. In English “I saw a TV” and “I watched TV” have two different meanings, but Koreans simply say “I see TV.”

When talking about seconds, you need to use the Sino-Korean numbers. When putting a number before “초,” it doesn’t matter if you use the word or the numeral. For example:

1초 = 1 second
일 초 = one second

2초 동안 = for 2 seconds
이 초 동안 = for two seconds

Question 182

저는 지난 주에 영화를 봤어요

Answer 182

I saw a movie last week

______________

지난 and 다음 are two words that you can use in many situations, including in situations related to time. In Lesson 10, you learned about 마지막, which can be used to refer to the “last” or “final” thing in a sequence. Remember, Korean people use another word when referring to a “previous” (or last) thing, as in: “I saw a movie last (the previous) week.”

Imagine you are on a six week trip, and you are currently in your fourth week of the trip. You can use “지난” to refer to the previous week, and you can use “마지막” to refer to the final week. (You can refer to them both as “last week” in English).

지난 can be added immediately before some words of time (I discuss “some” a little bit later) to refer to a “previous” thing. This often translates to “last,” though.

저는 지난 수업을 안 들었어요 = I didn’t go to/attend the last/previous class

Also, note that this sentence is also correct, but is referring to a different class than above:

저는 마지막 수업을 안 들었어요 = I didn’t attend the last class

Question 183

Question 184

저는 지난 수업을 안 들었어요

Answer 184

I didn’t go to/attend the last/previous class

In order to say “attend a class,” Korean people say “수업을 듣다,” which literally translates to “listen to/hear a class.” As such, you can see that the particle ~을 is attached to “수업” because “the class” is the noun that is being listened to.

Question 186

저는 그것을 지난 시간에 배웠어요

Answer 186

I learned that (thing) last time

____________

지난 can be added only before some words of time. For example, you couldn’t say “지난 분/지난 초.” These would mean “last minute/second” as in ‘the last minute/second’ that just passed – which doesn’t make any sense. Notice that they do not have the meaning of “I handed in my paper at the last minute.” This meaning refers to the last minute in a sequence of minutes; therefore, “마지막” must be used in this case.

시간, however, means “time” in addition to being a counter for “hours.” So, “지난 시간” can be used to mean “last time” (but not “last hour”).

Question 187

저는 그것을 지난 번에 배웠어요

Answer 187

I learned that (thing) last time

__________

You can also use the word 번 to refer to the last “time” something happened.

Question 188

우리가 지난 번에 계획이 없었어요

Answer 188

We didn’t have plans last time

__________

You can also use the word 번 to refer to the last “time” something happened.

__________

You can also use the word 번 to refer to the last “time” something happened.

Question 196

나는 3일 동안 공부했어

Answer 196

I studied for 3 days

_____________

You should have noticed that every day of the week ends in 일. 일 means “day” but it is never used alone (if it is used alone, it means ‘work’). I’m looking at my Korean calendar now, and see a variety of words ending in “일.” Don’t worry about these words now, just recognize the importance of “일” within them:

총선 = general election
총선일 = the day of the general election (election day)
현충일 = Memorial day

일 is also the counter for days. You learned in Lesson 10 that you must use pure Korean numbers when counting. When you count days, however, you use Sino-Korean numbers. When putting a number before “일,” it doesn’t matter if you use the word or the numeral.

나는 3일에 수업을 들었어

Answer 207

I went to class on the 3rd (day of the month)

___________

You can also place a (Sino-Korean) number before 일 to refer to a specific day in a month. It seems like it would be easy to confuse when one is talking about the day of a month (3일) and when doing something for a specific period (3일).

Question 227

저는 두 달 동안 한국어 수업을 들었어요

Answer 227

I took a Korean class for 2 months

________

First, notice that the names of each month correspond to the number of the month in the calendar For example:

January = 1월
February = 2월
December = 12월

When counting months, you can either use 달 or 개월. When using 달, you must use the pure Korean numbers, and when using 개월, you must use the Sino-Korean numbers. There is no difference in meaning, and both are used frequently. When putting a number before 달, I prefer to write the Korean word. When putting a number before 개월, it doesn’t matter if you use the word or the numeral.

My Korean grammar teacher told me years ago that ‘동안’ is actually incorporated into the meaning of 달, which would mean that you wouldn’t have to say 동안 after 달. Still, though, most people use 동안 after 달.
