to recognize, to try to know ## Footnote Notes: This word can be used to indicate that one recognizes (or does not recognize) something, usually because of a change in appearance. When used like this, “알아보다” is formed by combining the meanings of the words “알다” (to know) and “보다” (to see). For example: 머리를 깎아서 못 알아봤어요 = I couldn’t recognize you because you cut your hair 친구가 수술을 받은 후에 알아보기 어려워요 = It is difficult to recognize my friend after she got surgery It can also be formed by combining “알다” (to know) with the grammatical principle ~아/어보다 (to try to), which is introduced in Lesson 32. When used like this, the translation is closer to “to try to know,” and is often used when somebody looks into something new. For example: 저는 캐나다 숙소를 알아봐야 돼요 = I need to look into places to stay in Canada 어제 비행기표를 알아봤는데 싼 게 없어요 = I looked into plane tickets last night, and there is nothing cheap
