Description
A/V + (으)ㄴ/는/(으)ㄹ 줄 몰랐다 : 줄 Refers to a certain situation or fact. This is very comprehensive in possible meaning. Although the "몰랐다" refers directly to " I didn't know," it can also be accurately translated as "I was unaware (that) ~" or "I was uncertain (that) ~" etc.
Notes
- The opposite pattern is A/V + (으)ㄴ/는/(으)ㄹ 줄 알았다
- -(으)ㄴ 줄 몰랐다 - to not know something or someone was/did
- -는 줄 몰랐다 - to not know sthg or so is/does
- -(으)ㄹ 모랐다 - to not know sthg or so will/would
Pronunciation
- When the pattern is A/V + (으)ㄹ 줄 몰랐다, due to consonant assimilation rules, 줄 gets pronounced as 쭐
