Hello everyone, we are back with another lesson! This one is a bit shorter than the last one, and we are introducing how to say ‘when’ in Korean. You can also listen to many examples where the word ‘when’ is used to form questions. Listen in, check out the free PDF lesson note, and be sure to try answering the question “When do you get up in the morning?” in Korean in the comment box.
Thank you as always for studying with us! 감사합니다.
So, 아침에 언제 일어나요?
You can download a free PDF for this lesson here, or if you want to study with our TalkToMeInKorean textbooks, you can get them here. And after you learn the basics, try writing your own Korean sentences and get corrections from native speakers through HaruKorean, our 1:1 correction service.













how to answer the last question?
is it .. “아침 칠에 일어나요”..?
-so the number that we had learn before, we can use in this sentence?
how to say “i wake up at 6 am everyday”?
You need to say if it’s hours or minutes though. In case of hours you acutaly need to know the other counting system introduced in the next lesson.
아침 아홉 시에 일어나요. (아홉 = 7, 시 = hour)
For now you can write 아침 7:00에 일어나요, but you still read it as above. Minutes and seconds are with the Chinese number names, from prev lesson.
매일 오전 여섯 시에 일어나요
오후 네 시 이십 분에 퇴근해요 – I’m going back from work at 4:20 PM.
i wake up at 6 am everyday?
> (저는) 매일 여섯 시에 일어나요.
아침 칠에 일어나요
If you want to mean that I wake up at 7 in the morning, then you can say “아침 일곱 시에 일어나요”.
oh I confused 일곱 and 아홉 T.T I hate numbers and day/month names
Instead of saying 도착했어요 can you say 도착았어요 ?
We don’t say “도착았어요”. “도착했어요” is right.
No, because 도착하다 has the syllable 하 which means that it becomes 도착해요 in the present tense and 도착했어요 in the past tense.
So I tried making a sentence on my own. I tried saying ” When did you get up? ” and I was wondering if my sentence is correct. ” Eon-je i-reo-na-sseo-yo? ” Kamsahamnida !
Yes, that is correct.
아침에 육 일어나요. Is that how you say I wake up at six in the morning?
If you wanted to say, What time will you arrive later, would “later” be 나중에에? 감사합니다!
요즘 여섯 시에 일어나요.
Is it correct to say: 아침에 여섯 시에 일어나요.
Or do I have to drop the 에 after 아침?
Also, can I drop the 시에 from that sentence and still make sense?
Thanks again for your wonderful lessons. Please don’t shorten them, I love just listening to you. I wake up at 12 noon but then again I sleep at 4am so it’s only fair!!!
안녕하새요, 손생님!
If I am trying to say: “When did you buy this?”
Would I say: 이거 언제 샀어요?
감사합니다!
