Lesson 108 (Pre-Advance 1 Lesson 6)
January 23, 2022•760 words
We started the lesson with the guessing game. We were supposed to write 5 sentences using the 서술체 form that we learnt in the last lesson that I did not do.
We finished up the 2B book.
There is not really much to talk about. The culture note was a poem. Then we had to write a poem as homework, which was the task on that page. The teacher sent us 2 other sample poems. I tried my best with this one.
There was no new pronunciation topic. Instead, there was a passage with certain words underlined that we were supposed to pay attention to the pronunciation for—these were pronunciation rules we learnt before.
For the last half an hour of the lesson, we started on the handout for chapter 1. We covered the new vocab, and also the first portion about indirect speech. It is not even the full grammar point, but the summary, and only for the present tense.
Grammar
This is the very first grammar point in 3A Chapter 1.
1. Indirect Speech (간접 화법)
This builds on the very important ending that was covered in the last chapter (and that we’ll apparently see more of in this level).
A-다고 하다, V-는/ㄴ다고 하다, and N(이)라다.
While it is essentially the same for adjectives and verbs, it is slightly different for nouns. But it should still look familiar.

| A | 크다 → 크다고 해요 | 작다 → 작다고 해요 |
