Welcome to another episode of TalkToMeInKorean! In this lesson, we are looking at how to use the verb 말다 in the form “말고” and make expressions such as “Not this one but THAT one.” “Not here but over there.” or “Don’t buy it and use this one.”
Thank you so much for studying with us and as usual, be sure to leave us comments and practice making your own sample sentences!
You can view 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.

말고 and 아니고. With nouns, what’s the difference?
They mention this in the PDF
말고 is from 지 말다. a command to not do something, i.e action verbs.
아니고 is to not be (이다) so
우유 말고 커피 주세요. is don’t give me A(milk), give me B(coffee) instead.
Whereas 아니고 would be used to say “this IS NOT A but is B”
이거슨 우유 아니고 커피 이에요. this is not milk; it’s coffee.
^I don’t know if this sentence is right.
안녕하세요 TTMIK!!

I noticed 경은 says 굉장히 간단하고 쉬어요 at one time and I came to wonder, is there any difference between these two?
I love your site by the way ^^b
Thought I should start commenting since you always insist. ㅋㅋ
슬플땐 바보같이 참지말고 울어요.
그런 거 아니다 이런 거 이에요.
It’s not like that it’s like this. (not sure if this is right).
안녕하세요
stop complaining and just try eating it
불평하지 말고 그냥 먹어봐요
I like Donghae ssi not Eunhyuk ssi
은혁씨 말고 동해씨 종아해요
Eunhyuk ssi , dont like but you should love him
은혁씨는 종아하지 말고 사랑해야돼요
(this sounds … kinda weird lol)
this is my favorite lesson and also lesson 26.
