Lesson 100 (Intermediate 4 Lesson 6)
November 7, 2021•1,019 words
Test is in two weeks. We finished Chapter 16 this lesson, and next lesson will be revision. After the test, the lesson time will change, which means we are merging with the other class. I hope the class does not end up becoming too big…
We started this lesson with Quizlet Live. This was really fortunate for me (because that means I can guess as it is MCQ) rather than having to answer individually. Of course this was the word deck (this is never done with the sentence deck). The winner was not surprising; it was first the older lady (cos she actually studies), then later when the other newer girl (not the newest) joined the class, then she finished first. Then that other lady got second. I got second and third with some care since I could eliminate some answers.
We finished up with the worksheet (the last grammar point). There was also a review after that of the Quizlet sentence deck, if I recall correctly, mostly to go through the new grammar? I cannot remember.
Anyway, after that, we looked at the textbook, from the beginning. Not everything was covered. We skipped going through the grammar points again, but did some of the activities below. One of the speaking activities we did, I just have this feeling it is going to come out on the test…
We did not do the culture note either, and finished with pronunciation. We did not cover the self-check in class since there wasn’t time. I suspect we might not do it next week but go straight to the revision sheet. If we do have the entire lesson for revision, I wonder if we will be using Quizlet like we did a very long time ago… probably the first or second test I had…
Grammar
4. A/V-(으)ㄹ 테니까
Apparently, just like how the noun modifiers would be a form that we would see frequently in other grammar forms, we will also be seeing more of 테 in other grammar forms.
This particular grammar is used to indicate a speaker’s strong supposition or intention before giving orders or making a suggestion.
Essentially, it is one of:
And so, usually it is followed by a suggestion, order, or request.
| 받침 X, ㄹ + ㄹ 테니까 | 받침 O + 을 테니까 | |
|---|---|---|
| A | 크다 → 클 테니까 | 작다 → 작을 테니까 |
| V | 가다 → 갈 테니까 | 먹다 → 먹을 테니까 |
Examples
- 청소를 제가 할 테니까 설거지 좀 해 주세요. (I will clean up, so please do the dishes.)
- 주말에는 사람이 많을 테니까 미리 예악하세요. (There will be a lot of people on the weekend, so please book in advance.)
- 내가 도와줄 테니까 걱정하지 마. (I will help you, so don’t worry.)
Pronunciation
It feels like I just wrote about pronunciation very recently… oh, I actually did in the last post. This just shows how fast we are going.
For Chapter 16, the pronunciation is about what happens when ‘ㄴ’ meets ‘ㄹ’.
When the initial consonant ‘ㄴ’ is preceded by the final consonant ‘ㄹ’, ‘ㄴ’ is pronounced as [ㄹ].
The teacher said it is also the same when the final consonant is ‘ㄴ’ and initial consonant is ‘ㄹ’, like we saw in 연락 [열락]. I tried to search, but I think we learnt this one without it being covered in a pronunciation section in the textbook. (It is in Lesson 58’s vocabulary section.)
Examples
- 실내 [실래]
- 물냉면 [물랭면]
- 사진이 잘 나왔네요 [잘라완네요]
