Transcript
- Lucas: Welcome back to Learn Korean with Fexingo! I'm Lucas. Luna: And I'm Luna! Today we're talking about the weather again, but focusing on hot and cold. Lucas: Right. In a previous episode we covered 날씨가 좋아요 and 날씨가 나빠요, but today we'll learn more specific words. Luna: Oh good, because I've been wanting to say 'it's hot' in Korean! Lucas: Great! So the word for 'hot' is 더워요. Let's say it together: 더워요. Luna: 더워요. Lucas: Perfect. And for 'cold', it's 추워요. Try it: 추워요. Luna: 추워요. Lucas: Awesome. Now, to ask about the weather, you can say 날씨가 어때요? which means 'How is the weather?' Luna: 날씨가 어때요? That's what we learned before, right? Lucas: Exactly. So if someone asks you that, you can answer 날씨가 더워요 or 날씨가 추워요. Luna: 날씨가 더워요. It's hot. 날씨가 추워요. It's cold. Lucas: You've got it! Let's practice with a little scene. Imagine it's summer and we're outside. Luna: Okay! I'll say 날씨가 어때요? and you answer. Lucas: Sounds good. Luna: 날씨가 어때요? Lucas: 날씨가 더워요. Now you ask me again, but this time imagine it's winter. Luna: 날씨가 어때요? Lucas: 날씨가 추워요. See how easy that is? Luna: Yeah! But what if I just want to say 'I'm hot' or 'I'm cold'? Can I just say 더워요? Lucas: You can! 더워요 and 추워요 can mean 'it's hot/cold' or 'I'm hot/cold' depending on context. So if you're sweating, you can just say 더워요. Luna: Ah, that's handy. 더워요! I can already feel the summer heat. Lucas: Me too! Now, let's do a quick review. Repeat after me: 날씨가 어때요? Luna: 날씨가 어때요? Lucas: 날씨가 더워요. Luna: 날씨가 더워요. Lucas: 날씨가 추워요. Luna: 날씨가 추워요. Lucas: Perfect!
