TTMIK nível 7 lição 26 (Brasil)

In this lesson, let us take a look at how to say “in addition to + V-ing” or “on top of + V-ing” in Korean. The structure we are looking at is “-(으/느)ㄴ 데다가”. How it is formed “데” by itself means “a place” or “a spot” , but it is always attached another Korean word, like in “아픈 데”, which means a place that hurts (on your body). -(에)다가 means “adding to this” or “to this place” as in, “put it over here” (“여기에다가 놓으세요”) or “I left it at home” (“집에다가 두고 왔어요”). By adding 데 to -(에)다가 , 데다가 is formed, which means “on the place of...” or “adding to the spot where...”. When -(으/느)ㄴ is used, it connects other verbs with 데다가. All together, -(으/느)ㄴ 데다가 means “on top of …” or “in addition to …” Construction [Present tense] Action verb + -는 데다가 Ex) 먹다 → 먹는 데다가 Descriptive verb + -(으)ㄴ 데다가 Ex) 예쁘다 → 예쁜 데다가 [Past tense] Verb stem + -(으)ㄴ 데다가 Ex) 먹다 → 먹은 데다가

Examples 1. 예쁘다 = to be pretty 예쁜 데다가 = in addition to being pretty 2. 바쁘다 = to be busy 바쁜 데다가 = in addition to being busy 3. 비싸다 = to be expensive 비싼 데다가 = in addition to being expensive When using -(으/느)ㄴ 데다가 in a sentence, it is usually followed by a clause that is consistent with the previous. Therefore, the two clauses in the sentence should be consistent with each other, and -도 (also) is often used in the second clause. Sample Sentences 1. 석진 씨는 잘생긴 데다가 키도 커요. = In addition to being handsome, Seokjin is also tall. 2. 효진 씨는 똑똑한 데다가 공부도 열심히 해요. = In addition to being smart, Hyojin studies hard too. 3. 경은 씨는 예쁜 데다가 성격도 좋아요. = In addition to being pretty, Kyeong-eun also has a nice personality. 4. 이 식당은 시끄러운 데다가 맛도 없어요. = In addition to being noisy, this restaurant’s food is also not good. 5. 경화 씨는 친구가 많은 데다가 하는 일도 많아서 만나기 어려워요. = In addition to having a lot of friends, Kyung-hwa also does lots of things, so it’s difficult to meet her.
