Are the mp3 links all working ? Just went through lesson 4 mp3 those files on the first page don’t seem to work ? Is this just on my com ?
it’s ok that the audio isn’t working..seeing the particle and example is already enough to learn this another easy lesson.. :)

Why are sample sentences are all in past tense? Can I say in present tense like “작은 내 동생을 기다리다가 내가 잘 수가 있어”? 절 도와주기 덕분에 감사합니다.
점심을 먹다가 이 래선을 들었어요.
Thanks for this lesson. I have seen this “다가” structure quite a bit, and have been wondering what it means. :)
