Korean has no words like "who", "which" or "that": the whole describing clause goes in front of the noun and the verb takes a modifier ending - -(으)ㄴ for past, -는 for present, -(으)ㄹ for future. Everything that would follow the noun in English comes before it in Korean.
Examples
- 제가 어제 만난 사람은 선생님이에요.
- The person I met yesterday is a teacher.
- 지금 읽는 책이 인생을 바꿨어요.
- The book I'm reading now changed my life.
- 내일 볼 영화를 예매했어요.
- I booked the movie I'll see tomorrow.
- 가장 소중한 것은 가족이에요.
- The most precious thing is family.
The mistake to avoid
Word-ordering it like English (사람 제가 만난) - the clause must come before the noun.
Where this fits in
삶에 대한 생각, Korean B2: Reflect on life, values, personal growth, and relationships.
