Unlike Chinese in Korean, there are so many symbols to help break sentences, so there is 띄어쓰기 (interval writing), leaving spaces when writing for others to read. How important it is to add spaces correctly, let's look at a few negative examples:
The junior senior is the best. （×）
He's the best senior in the juniors. （○）
The seniors who posed for the back position (beep) were awesome
The seniors who think about the younger generations are awesome
Mommy's fingers are exceptionally small. （×）
Mom's pinky finger is exceptionally small (○)
Mom's XX (beep) fingers are extra small
Mom's little thumb is extra small
My sister keeps touching me (×)
My sister keeps up(○)
My sister always touched me
My sister lost repeatedly
Seoul City Society (×)
Seoul Athletic Association (○)
Seoul corpse sashimi
Seoul City Sports Association.
Boss (×) like a plain dog
Rainbow-like boss (○)
Very much like the president of the dog
President like a rainbow
Oh, I smell fuck (×)
I smell my uncle's foot (○)
Ah that West Eight (beep) has a stinky smell
The uncle has a bad foot
So don't mess with the space, otherwise you will really be beaten when you go out! In order to write a new chapter in the construction of a harmonious society, it is necessary for us to learn the correct principles of Korean space writing, let's take a look at it together:
1. The auxiliary word is simulcast with the word that precedes it.
My brother......
My brother is 哥哥......
오빠처럼 Like a brother
My brother...
圸韩国 in Korea
한국으로 Towards Korea
2. Dependent nouns should be written separately.
(Dependent nouns, i.e., incomplete nouns, must be used in conjunction with other words and cannot appear alone, such as 것, 수, 만큼)
It is power to know.
Knowledge is power.
Harvest as much as you try.
One point of hard work, one point of harvest.
I can do it too.
I can do it too.
3. Noun spacing denoting units
When there is a quantifier, the noun, the quantifier, and the quantifier are separated.
한 개 One
One cow 一头牛
열 살 Ten years old
It can only be written in conjunction with a representation order or custom with a number word.
KRW 80 80元
10 10个
제1과 Lesson 1
May 4, 1987 1987年5月4日
Doosi thirty minutes five seconds 2点30分5秒
16-dong 502 16栋502号
4. Write numbers in "10,000" increments.
1.2334888,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
1.234.56 million 7898 12亿3456万7898
5. The word spacing used when connecting two words or enumerating.
국장 겸 과장 Director and Chief of Section
Heat to Twenty 10至20
There are desks, statues, etc.
6. Words composed of single syllables can be written together.
그때 At that time
그곳 That place
큰것 Big stuff
좀더 Slightly more
7. Surname and first name, surname and number, etc. are written consecutively, and additional titles, positions, etc. are written in intervals.
Lee Kwang-so
Kim Jong-kuk Kim
유재석 씨 Mr. Liu Zaishi
Dr. Ji Seok-jin
Only the first name and the first name, the last name and the number need to be clearly distinguished and can be written separately. (Many compound surnames will be written separately in order to distinguish)
Namgung Min 南宫珉
Hwangbo Hyejung 皇甫贞
8. In principle, intrinsic names other than names are written in word intervals, but they can also be written in unit intervals
Middle School for 原则
Allowed 대한중학교 Daehan Middle School
9. In principle, professional language is written in word intervals, but can be written consecutively.
原则 Chronic myetic leukemia
Allows 만성골수성백혈병 chronic myelogenous leukemia
Here it is recommended that you do not simply memorize the rules, but memorize them together with the example sentences, so that when you encounter writing questions in the future, just think about whether there are similar example sentences that can correspond to them
