Hi I was wondering if someone could explain to me what the difference between μκ°νκ³ μμ΄
μ and μκ΅νκ³ μλ μ€μ΄μμ. First one means I'm thinking but don't know what ~λ μ€μ΄ μμ is all about. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

~λ μ€μ΄μμ: in the process of verb.
~ μ€μ΄μμ: in the process of noun. Edited by Z.J.J on 20 July 2009 at 2:11pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

This sheds a bit of light for me, but could you post some example sentence? I'm entirely sure... 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

The second one means "in the middle of thinking" and can be shortened to simply μκ° μ€μ΄μμ and e perfectly grammatical. A native can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the former implies that you're actively thinking at the moment, whereas the second implies you're sleeping on it, giving it consideration, or otherwise giving something some time before you come to a conclusion or decision.

In addition to what qklilx said, μ€γmeans middle or center.
See grammar point 5 here for some examples of similar use. http://www.language.berkeley.edu/korean/10/lesson08/index.ht m Edited by Yukamina on 20 July 2009 at 7:30pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Alas.. a bit too late.. I think other learners have elaborated it in enough detail for you. If you are still unsure about it, post a reply and I'll compose a small grammar lecture for you.. :)
