= The standardization of student grades in Korean high schools will help the students enter University

사원 = member of staff, employee

Notes: If I asked 100 people in Canada what their job is, I would probably only get the answer “office worker” a few times. In Korea however, probably 50% of the people would respond with “office worker.” Many Korean people work for big companies in offices, not all doing the same thing obviously, but I’m not exactly sure what they’re all doing in there.

저는 부탁이 하나 있어요 = I have one favor Another common translation for 부탁 is “a request.” For example:

저는 신입사원에게 그 일을 부탁했어요 = I asked the new employee to take care of that work If the favor is an action, you can attach ~아/어 달라고 to the verb. For example:

Introduction

In this lesson, you will continue to learn about quoted sentences. You will learn how to say that one asks for something, or requests for something to be done. Let’s get started.

Quoted Imperative Sentences with 주다: ~ 달라고

In Lesson 40, you learned how to create imperative sentences. For example:

신입사원을 만나러 나가 = Go out to meet the new employee

매출이 왜 떨어졌는지 설명해라 = Explain to me why the sales dropped

In Lesson 52, you learned how to make quoted sentences. For example:

우리가 지난 주에 영화를 네 편 봤다고 했어요 = I said that we saw four movies last week

설문조사를 벌써 작성했다고 했어요 = I said that I already filled out the survey

In Lesson 54, you learned how to make quoted imperative sentences, for example:

신발끈이 풀려 있어서 묶으라고 했어요 = I told him to tie his shoes because they were untied

고급시험을 봐 보라고 했어요 = I told him to try to write the advanced exam

Finally, in Lesson 41, you learned how to use 주다 to ask for an object, or ~아/어 주다 to ask for an action to be completed. For example:

그 펜을 주세요 = Please give me that pen

나를 내버려둬 주세요 = Please leave me alone

When quoting a sentence like this (a sentence that ends with 주다 in the imperative mood), the sentence changes differently compared to what you learned in Lesson 54. If ~(으)라고 were added to 주다, the acting agent within the quoted sentence would be telling the listener to give/do something to another person. For example, if I said:

성경에게 학생에게 펜을 주 라고 했어요

I used the term “acting agent” in the explanation above to refer to the person who is acting within the quote. In the example sentence above, I am talking to my friend 성경, and I am telling her to give the pen to the student. In the underlined section of the sentence, 성경 would be the person giving the pen – and I refer to this as the “acting agent.” It’s a little bit confusing because there are three people: Me, who is speaking to 성경 and telling her what to do; 성경, who is listening to me and acting within the quote; and the student who is neither speaking nor listening, but receives the pen from 성경.

I could take out the “student” whom 성경 gives the pen to and the sentence would still work – it just wouldn’t specifically indicate who is receiving the pen. For example:

성경에게 펜을 주 라고 했어요 =I told 성경 to give (you) the pen

(or to somebody who we can’t know in this sentence)

As you can see, 주다 can be used in quoted imperative sentences, but only to quote that one tells a person to give something to another person. This can create some confusion.

When the original speaker of the quoted sentence asks for an object to be given to him/her (or for an action to be done for him/her) using ~주다 (or ~아/어 주다), 주다 should be replaced by the verb 달다.

달다 is a verb, but you don’t really need to memorize it as a word in your vocabulary studies. It’s typically only used in these situations – as a substitute for “주다” in quoted imperative sentences. As a standalone verb, it technically means “to request.”

Let’s look at a very simple example:

A. Person 1: 밥(을) 주세요 = Give me rice

B. Person 2: 뭐라고? = What did you say?

C. Person 1: 밥(을) 달라고 했어요 = I said “give me rice”

Here, the original speaker of the quoted sentence (seen at A) is asking for rice. Therefore, when I quote that sentence (the final quoted sentence can be seen at C), I use 달다 instead of 주다 because the original speaker is asking for an object to be given to him.

Notice that I underlined the words “original speaker of the quoted sentence” above. I did this to emphasize that – in order to use 달다 in these sentences, the speaker of the final sentence doesn’t need to be “I/me.” Regardless of who says the final sentence, if somebody requests something be given (or be done) to him/her, and that sentence is quoted, 달다 should be used instead of 주다.

These explanations are making my head spin because there are so many people we are talking about. Let’s look at another simple conversation that I think will help you understand what I’m trying to say.

A. Person 1: 밥(을) 주세요 = Give me rice

B. Person 2: 뭐라고? = What did you say?

C. Person 3: 밥(을) 달라고 했어요 = He said “give me rice”

Here, the original speaker of the quoted sentence (seen at A) is asking for rice. The speaker of the final sentence (seen at C) is not the same person who originally asked for the rice. Regardless, when Person 3 quotes that sentence (the final quoted sentence can be seen at C), 달다 should be used instead of 주다 because the original speaker is asking for an object to be given to him.

달다 is sometimes translated to “request” in these situations. For example:

A. Person 1: Give me rice

B. Person 2: What did you say?

C. Person 3: He requested rice

I can see why this translation is often used, but I prefer to use “give” as a translation. Remember, we’re dealing with quoted sentences here and in my mind saying “request” doesn’t fully take in the meaning that we’ve created.

To go back to what we looked at before, ~(으)라고 can be added to 주다 if the original speaker of the quoted sentence asks for an object to be given to somebody else. For example:

A. Person 1: 애기에게 밥을 줘 = Give the baby rice

B. Person 2: 뭐라고? = What did you say?

C. Person 3: 애기에게 밥을 주라고 했어 = I said “give the baby rice”

Let’s look at many examples of ~(으)라고 being used with 달다:

휴지를 달라고 했어요 = I said “please give me a tissue”

맥주 한 병을 달라고 했어요 = I said “please give me one bottle of beer”

엄마가 숟가락과 칼을 달라고 했어 = Mom said “please give me a spoon and a knife”

우리 아들은 계속 용돈을 달라고 졸라요 = Our son keeps pestering for pocket money

부장은 사원에게 창고에 있는 자전거를 달라고 했어요 = The boss said to his employee “give me a bike from the warehouse.”

As I mentioned, it is also possible to use 달다 when the original speaker of a quoted sentence asks for an action to be done for him/her. In essence, 달다 replaces 주다 in ~아/어 주다 in these cases. For example:

저의 머리카락을 꼬지 말아 달라고 했어요

= I told her to please stop twisting my hair

학생은 선생님에게 성적을 올려 달라고 했어요

= The student said to the teacher “raise my grades”

다음 주에 입주할 거라서 그때 와 달라고 했어요

= We will be moving into the new house next week, so I told them to come then

비타민이 풍부하게 들어가 있는 과일만 사 달라고 했어요

= I requested to only buy fruit that is abundant with vitamins (fruits rich in vitamins)

어떤 공무원이 우리 집에 와서 설문조사를 답해 달라고 했어요

= Some government worker came to our house and requested that we answer a survey

그들에게 조용히 해 달라고 했지만 그들은 아직 너무 시끄러워요

= I told them to “please be quiet,” but they are still very loud

부장님은 우리회사가 행사를 개최할 때 끝까지 애써 달라고 했어요

= When we host this event, the boss requested that we try our best

할아버지가 이 컴퓨터를 어떻게 쓰는지를 설명해 달라고 했지만 세대 차이 때문에 아주 힘들었어요 = Grandpa asked me to explain how to use this computer, but it was difficult because of the generation gap

Favor: 부탁

부탁 often translates to “favor” and can be used as a noun in sentences. For example:

저는 부탁이 하나 있어요 = I have one favor

Another common translation for 부탁 is “a request.” For example:

저는 부탁이 하나 있어요 = I have one request

In English, we often use the word “favor” to ask if somebody can do something for you. For example:

Can I ask you for a favor? or,

Can you do me a favor?

In Korean, you can create similar sentences using the word 부탁 by attaching~하다 to 부탁. 부탁하다 is a verb that you can translate to “to ask for a favor” or “to request a favor.” For example:

저는 더 자세한 설명을 부탁했어요 = I asked for a clearer explanation.

I translated the sentence above as “I asked for a clearer explanation” but it could just as easily be “I asked a favor for the explanation to be clearer” or “I requested a clearer explanation.”

부탁하다 is often used with a noun that refers to some sort of task or work. 부탁하다 is then used to ask the listener to “take care of” that task. For example:

It’s really hard to translate these sentences directly. Don’t look at the English translations below as direct translations of the Korean sentences. Rather, try to understand that their meanings are equivalent:

남편에게 청소를 부탁했어요 = I asked my husband to take care of the cleaning (for me)

저는 신입사원에게 그 일을 부탁했어요 = I asked the new employee to take care of that work (for me)

빨래를 아들에게 부탁하고 집에서 나왔어요 = I asked my son to take care of the laundry for me and left the house

In the example sentences so far, 부탁하다 has come after a noun. If the favor (or what you are requesting) is an action, you can attach ~아/어 달라고 to the verb, followed by 부탁하다. For example:

밥을 빨리 만들어 달라고 부탁했어요 = I asked him to make (the rice) quickly

저는 그에게 더 자세히 설명해 달라고 부탁했어요 = I asked him to explain it more clearly

One more peculiar thing about the word “부탁하다” is that it is often said as “부탁(을) 드리다.” You learned in Lesson 39 that “드리다” is the honorific form of “주다” and is used when the receiving person deserves high respect. When using “부탁,” the person receiving the favor is you, and you should never use 드리다 when talking about yourself receiving something. The way I think about it is that I am giving a request to somebody, which would allow me to use 드리다. For example:

밥을 빨리 만들어 달라고 부탁 드렸어요 = I asked him to make (the rice) quickly

엄마에게 그것을 사 달라고 부탁 드렸어요 = I asked my mother to buy that for me
