How old are you?

Notes: 연세 is the formal equivalent of the word “나이.” When talking to (much) older people, you should use the word “연세” to refer to their age. Using this word is a delicate science, because if you use the word “나이” on a very old person, he/she might be offended. However, if you use the word 연세 on somebody who isn’t very old, he/she might be offended as well.

The “연” in “연세” is the same Hanja character as the word for “year” 년 (年).
