Description
V + (으)ㄹ래요 : This grammar pattern has several usages:
- When used with in the first person tense, it is used to expresses the intention or will of the speaker.
- When used with another subject, it asks for the thoughts and intentions of the listener. This can be a polite way of asking someone if they want to or can do something either with you or for you. However in the case with strangers, elders or people in a higher status position, you should attach the honorific suffix 시 if you are asking them to do something for you, otherwise it can still seem rude (even with a 요 ending!). See below.
Notes
- This pattern cannot be used in the third person.
- When combined with the honorific attachment 시 can be used to ask if the listener wants to or can do something. In general, you should use the [[시] attachment to form -실래요 when speaking to strangers, elders or people in a higher status position, otherwise it can sound rude (even with 요 at the end). Also when asking for something in a restaurant, use the -실래요 ending instead of just ㄹ래요.
- 할아버지, 가실래요?
[Would you like to go, Grandpa?]
- 할아버지, 갈래요?
- 할아버지, 가실래요?
- Using words that are already normally not polite on their own still remain rude or even more rude due to a slight feeling of sarcasm. Similar to saying "Would you shut up?" in English, where 'would you' doesn't make the sentence any more polite than just 'shut up.'
- 비켜 줄래? [You mind getting out of the way?]
- 닥쳐 줄래? [Would you shut up?]
Conjugation Rule
| Pattern | Case | Example | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rule 1: | Verb + ㄹ 래요 | If there is no 받침 or if the adjective/verb stem has ㄹ as a 받침 | 가다 → 갈래요 |
| Rule 2: | Verb + 을래요 | If there is a 받침 at the end of the adjective/verb stem | 먹다 → 먹을래요 |
