In this lesson, we look at how to say “I guess …”, “I assume …” or “I suppose …” in Korean : -나 보다 [-na bo-da] Today’s key structure is somewhat similar to -것 같다 in meaning, but it has a stronger nuance of “I assume … based on this fact” or “I suppose … because …”. We hope you enjoy this lesson and thank you as always for studying Korean with us!

For situations where you go somewhere with a friend but you have no money and it’s time to pay for ~~~ and they look at you for money can you say:
저는 고장났어요. I’m broke.
돈 있었나 봤어요. I assumed you had money.

오늘 아침에 눈이 내렸나 봐요!
“눈이 오다”도 괜찮아요?

You mean 내렸다고 봐요 – yes it also means “I think”
About 오다 maybe 눈이 오고 있었나 봐요
