Many verbs/adjectives with a ㄷ 받침 are irregular: the ㄷ changes to ㄹ when followed by a vowel.

Note that many verbs/adjectives with a ㄷ 받침 are regular (the ㄷ does not change). There is no specific rule to know whether one is irregular or not; instead you must memorize which are irregular and which ones aren't.

Explanation

  • For irregular ㄷ verbs, no change is made to the 받침 if it is followed by a consonant.
For example: 듣다 → 듣습니다
  • For irregular ㄷ verbs, the ㄷ 받침 changes to a ㄹ when followed by a vowel.
For example: 듣다 → 들어요
  • Steps for conjugating irregular ㄷ verbs which are followed by a vowel:
1. Replace ㄷ 받침 with ㄹ
2. Follow the same conjugation rules for patterns with a 받침.
For example: 걷다 + A/V + (으)니까 you would use 으 since it has a 받침.
So 걷다 becomes 걸으니까


Note that ㄹ irregular verbs, verbs with a ㄹ 받침 are irregular in a different way. (This can be somewhat confusing if you mix them up with ㄷ irregular verbs.)
