Korean Q&A - Difference between 하면 (if) and 한다면 (if)

[@littlecc1234]

I liked how he also corrected the English grammar in the tweet lol.

[@naritruwireve1381]

I'm sure he has better English than me by now and I'm a native lol

[@gwendalynnwatkins1296]

I cackled when he did that, cause he did it so casually 💀

[@oncewithtwice]

Lol

@@gwendalynnwatkins1296 what did he do? That was from 2 years ago.. But I'm curious haha

[@huanquatro]

I was once told by my Korean teacher that Korean grammar isn’t hard, it’s just a combination of very easy things. This is the perfect example. I never realized the whole abbreviation thing. That’s so smart.

[@talktomeinkorean]

Thank you!!

[@moonlightning8269]

it's similar with a lot of the "hard" languages I've found. there are some concepts that initially seem very odd or a higher amount of "different" things but there's usually some internal logic and with repeated immersive practice it starts to feel natural.

[@loveujiminiee]

@@moonlightning8269 Yes! I find it quite similar to Hindi

[@knightenchanter7908]

@@loveujiminiee I'm Indian. I studied Hindi all through my school years and I still suck at it. I studied Korean for about 5 years and I'm fluent. Imo Hindi is harder.

[@loveujiminiee]

@@knightenchanter7908 ya but the use of the verb होना , adjectives and sentence structure I find similar, otherwise I agree that Hindi is much harder:(

You were truly born to teach! You make things so easy to understand! Thank you Hyunwoo for all you do :D

[@J_young_824]

Indeed he was born to teach. When he simplified all of the examples i was like "aaahhhh""" 👏👏👏 thank you 선생님 😍

[@oncewithtwice]

I agree! 👍🏽👍🏽 감사합니다, 선생님!

[@_jlaya]

Thank you so much for all the effort that everyone puts into making TTMIK! As a language student, I can honestly say that I have not come across any other materials like the lessons that you guys provide (even some of the stuff that I have been taught at university is not as clear as your lessons/pdfs) - you seriously blow all competition out of the water - you all deserve some big award ☺️Thanks for all your time and effort 😜

[@metaforically]

jlaa perhaps you've not come across Japanese pod 101

[@shadowkatzchen]

I completely agree, I’ve tried to learn a few different languages over the years and TTMIK’s teaching and resources are far superior to anything else I’ve seen. Thank you for your hard work TTMIK!

Hyunwoo is truly amazing. 15 min lesson while speaking a non native language, explaining things perfectly. Thank you sir.

[@eliTUNE]

Ahh so the -ㄴ다면 is like when we use "let's say ..." in English!! I always wondered what the difference was. Really really appreciate this video!!! Thank you TTMIK :)

[@jaoossi_]

I literally can’t unsee that “to do” as “todo”,the word ‘all’ in Spanish

[@UziTuni]

JAJAJA a mí también me pasa

[@flet__]

I learn Spanish as well as Korean and I can never unseen todo as English "to do''

[@aqwandrew6330]

hi newbie

[@sebastiankumlin9542]

So -(ㄴ/는)다면 and -(ㄴ/는)다고 하면 poses a hypothetical situation while -(으)면 poses an expected event?

[@bigbigbans]

yes, it's like (in English) the difference between- "if we hang out tomorrow" or "if, by any chance, we could hang out tomorrow"

[@emilyp258]

Sebastian - This is exactly what I was going to ask for clarificaton! Kwetibaby - Thank you :)

[@supertotoro]

I always thought of the difference as "if" and "if + should". 한국으로 가면 - if/when I go to korea 한국으로 간다면 ㅡ if I should go to korea. I think my way of differentiating them are correct but I really enjoyed the deeper and full explanation so it was very interesting to me anyway.

[@LanceClark]

한국으로 간다면 - If I were to go to Korea.

[@marshmallow3346]

this guy is the best teacher. is it really okay for him to teach these things for free? im learning so much and im not even paying. but then thank u for making it free

[@ajko000]

What I really love about you guys is that you explain things not only IN context, but around context as well. It's one thing to say, "this means this". It's another thing to say "in THIS context, it means this". But even further, you guys explain the evolution of the concepts and ideas which really, REALLY ingrain the concept/idea into my head. There is so much detail in small bits of Korean this really helps to make everything make sense.

[@GygaxGirl]

So much info, so fast. Definitely an advanced intermediate lesson. Thanks for the explanation.

[@tanjiro5966]

아주 쉬운 방법으로 가르쳐 주셔서 감사합니다.

[@bobchen5662]

You guys are the best! Love watching your lessons while having breakfast every morning. A great way to start a day. 🥰🥰🥰

[@spicymangooo]

I appreciate being direct and not straying too far away from the lesson. Somehow many seemingly good instructions go south when it’s suddenly but don’t do this don’t do that. This helps me focus.

[@kasrahere]

I loved this lecturee!! Pleasee make more videos with details I love it it makes me understand the real reason of using words in these kinda forms. Thank you soooo muchhh...

[@drhcc3649]

Really loved this episode! (Well, I love a lot of your videos!) Korean is the very first language that I learned completely from scratch through my own efforts, and I have Talk to Me in Korean to thank for that! Seriously, I'm teaching myself a bunch of different languages, but Talk to Me in Korean is in my opinion one of the best language learning resources out there. Interesting, high-quality, and informative, Talk to Me in Korean videos and books have helped me get to a level where I am almost able to watch a Korean show without subtitles. I'll keep watching and buying your books so that I can get to fluency! Many, many thanks!

[@nanda8112]

I want to say a big thank you to you guys from TTMIK. I am not an english or korean native speaker but I really like to learn new languages. As a language student from Brazil (and I always learn every language I want all by my own) I would probably not know how to speak korean as much as I know now if I hadn't your lessons. If I become fluent in korean one day as I am in english now (not too fluent, but okay) then it will be because of you guys. You are always saving my life haha

[@talktomeinkorean]

Thank you ^_^!!!

[@sosmcs]

U r a great teacher. I was so confused until u showed examples of the use of both. Plz keep using this smart board.

[@amitychu9511]

While picking up knowledge from this clip, 태연's 만약에 lyrics hit my brain. 만약에 내가 간다면 내가 다가간다면 넌 어떻게 생각할까 용길 낼 수 없고 만약에 네가 간다면 네가 떠나간다면 널 어떻게 보내야 할지 자꾸 겁이 나는걸 So without further exploring the rest of the story, we can tell the chances of 태연 confessing is very low. 🙃

[@94moonasha]

[@yaraf.1108]

It was recommended to me right after I finished watching Korean Unnie's "I WISH to..." video. I was actually thinking about how can I differentiate between her lesson and the "if" because I'm familiar with both structures but never really studied them in detail.

Superb explanation! 정말 감사합니다 선생님~

[@ichliebebaeumeweilbaum]

Yay! Again simular to the concept of "wenn" (if/when >-면) and "falls" (if, by any chance >-ㄴ다면) in German. Both mean if, but the second one is used when the thing probably isn't going to happen. E.g. This conversation: "If we meet again-" "IF we meet again..." (the second person thinks it's unlikely) Would be: "Wenn wir uns wiedersehen sollten-" "FALLS wir uns wiedersehen sollten..." Could it also be translated like that in Korean? "우리 다시 만나면-" "우리 다시 만난다면..."
