what about a series of things. do you add 와/과 to the end of each noun in the series?
Hi Alexis,
Yes, you add 와/과 to each noun in written Korean or 랑/이랑 in spoken Korean.
For example, 바나나랑 사과랑 배 = a banana, apple and pear
Hi Luke, I was just wondering when you would use 하고 for "and" and this blog is so helpful thank you so much:))
Hi Anonymous,
You can use 하고 to link sentences. For example,
나는 청소를 했다 = I did cleaning
나는 저녁을 먹었다 = I had dinner
나는 청소를 하고 저녁을 먹었다 = I did cleaning, and had dinner.
