Workbook: Unit 18 - Negative Sentences

Practice saying "no" and making verbs negative!

Exercise 1: Make it Negative

Add μ•ˆ to the following regular verbs to make them negative. Translate the new sentence.

  1. λ΄μš” (watch) -> ________ (Meaning: ________ )
  2. μƒ€μ–΄μš” (bought) -> ________ (Meaning: ________ )
  3. λ§›μžˆμ–΄μš” (is delicious) -> (Wait! λ§›μžˆμ–΄μš” is a compound of 맛 + μžˆμ–΄μš”. The opposite of μžˆμ–΄μš” is μ—†μ–΄μš”. So you don't use μ•ˆ! You just say λ§›μ—†μ–΄μš”!) Let's try a regular adjective: μ»€μš” (is big). -> ________ (Meaning: ________ )

Exercise 2: The ν•˜λ‹€ Exception

Change the following ν•˜λ‹€ action verbs into their negative present tense form (ν•΄μš” -> μ•ˆ ν•΄μš”). Remember to split the noun and the verb!

  1. μš”λ¦¬ν•˜λ‹€ (to cook. Noun: μš”λ¦¬) -> I do not cook:
  2. μˆ˜μ˜ν•˜λ‹€ (to swim. Noun: 수영) -> I do not swim:
  3. μš΄λ™ν•˜λ‹€ (to exercise. Noun: μš΄λ™) -> I do not exercise:

Exercise 3: Translation

Translate the following short sentences into Korean.

Vocabulary: * 학ꡐ (hak-gyo) = school * 에 (e) = to (direction particle) * κ°€λ‹€ (ga-da) = to go * μΌν•˜λ‹€ (il-ha-da) = to work

  1. I do not go to school.
  2. I did not work. (Past tense!)
