[@Frasenius9]

Thanks, very useful!

[@mrchibimaru]

how about "used to be able to" (ex. i used to be able to make kimchi)? 나는김치를 만들수 있곤했어요?

[@GoBillyKorean]

+mrchibimaru Yeah, you can say that :) I'd probably change 나는 to 저는 though.

[@hamburgerandsprits]

How to say "get used to" please someone answer

[@BlackCatBCB]

After 곤 is 하다 always in the past tense?

[@Loly...9]

what if i want to say (excuse me if english is not good) "I used to want to travel" 나는 여행하고 싶 곤했어 or 나는 여행을 하고 싶 곤했어 is it right? which one of them is right?

[@SleeplessinOC]

어릴 떼 한국어만 하곤 했지만 지금은 잘 못해요. Is that right?

[@GoBillyKorean]

*어렸을 때 (specifically spelling it as 때) "when I was young" and yes :) Great job!

[@SleeplessinOC]

Learn Korean with GO! Billy Korean thanks Billy! Love your videos. Can you please make longer lessons?

[@vjorp5332]

This sentence is very important please someone correct it XD 저는 무험가가 당신과 같곤 했지만 그때 화살이 제 무릎을 촬영했습니다. I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I got an arrow to the knee. Funfact: That idiom from Skyrim many laughed at is actually a norse saying. "to get an arrow to the knee" means to get married.

[@kunikosturkie8361]

Thank u always^_^

[@thirteenth137]

어릴때 ..isn't supposed to be 어렸을 때. ?? Please show me the diffrence

[@user-db3hv8el6m]

어릴때 means when something or someone is young "when a child is young", "when a puppy is young" (it is a present tense of being young), and 어렸을때 is the past tense, "when I was young", "when we were young" etc.. Hope that helped :)

한국말 열심히 배우세요!

[@MojaveHigh]

When is -던 or -았/었/였던 used? Is it used when you modify a noun? 갔던 곳 = the place I used to go? I guess you wouldn't say 가곤 했는 곳 ?? Sorry, this is kind of confusing. I'm not even able to describe the difference in English.

[@GoBillyKorean]

던 is used when turning a past tense verb into an adjective (to use before a noun). You're correct :) I have a full lesson about it in my 3rd book, but I'll also make a video about it in the future.

[@ajko000]

Is this simply attaching the contracted particle form of 그리고 in a descriptive form? Or is this totally unrelated?

[@GoBillyKorean]

~곤 comes from ~고는, which you won't often see.

[@ajko000]

Ah thank you!
