Day 57 of 135

Day 57: Who Plays the Teacher Tomorrow

The day before the class talent show, fourth-graders Geonu (A) and Yerin (B) meet in the school playground to rehearse their comedy sketch.

How to study this lesson 4 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Still learning Hangul? Tick Romanization to see how each line sounds, but read the Korean first.
  3. Download the Anki deck below and review it every day. It has every line of today's dialogue. Review earlier decks too when Anki asks you to.
  4. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Korean, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

  1. B κ±΄μš°μ•Ό, λŒ€λ³Έ κ°€μ Έμ™”μ§€? 내일 μž₯κΈ° μžλž‘ λ¬΄λŒ€μ— μ„œλŠ”λ° 우리 아직 ν•œ λ²ˆλ„ λκΉŒμ§€ λͺ» ν•΄ λ΄€μ–΄.

    Geonuya, daebon gajyeowatji? Naeil janggi jarang mudaee seoneunde uri ajik han beondo kkeutkkaji mot hae bwasseo.

    Geonu, you brought the script, right? We're going on stage at the talent show tomorrow, and we still haven't done it all the way through once.

  2. A κ°€μ Έμ™”μ§€. 근데 λ°°μ—­λΆ€ν„° λ‹€μ‹œ μ •ν•˜μž. μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ€ λ‚΄κ°€ ν• λž˜. μ›λž˜ λ¬΄μ„œμš΄ 역할이 제일 μ›ƒκΈ°μž–μ•„.

    Gajyeowatji. Geunde baeyeokbuteo dasi jeonghaja. Seonsaengnimeun naega hallae. Wollae museoun yeokhari jeil utgijana.

    Yeah. But let's decide the roles again first. I want to be the teacher. The scary part is always the funniest.

  3. B 무슨 μ†Œλ¦¬μ•Ό? μ§€λ‚œμ£Όμ— μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ€ λ‚΄κ°€ ν•˜κΈ°λ‘œ ν–ˆμž–μ•„. λ„ˆλŠ” μˆ™μ œ μ•ˆ ν•΄ μ˜€λŠ” 학생이고.

    Museun soriya? Jinanjue seonsaengnimeun naega hagiro haetjana. Neoneun sukje an hae oneun haksaengigo.

    What are you talking about? Last week we decided I'd be the teacher. You're the student who never does his homework.

  4. A 그건 λ„€κ°€ κ°€μœ„λ°”μœ„λ³΄μ—μ„œ λ°˜μΉ™ν•΄μ„œ 그런 κ±°μ§€. λ„ˆ κ·Έλ•Œ ν•œ λ°•μž 늦게 λƒˆμž–μ•„.

    Geugeon nega gawibawiboeseo banchikaeseo geureon geoji. Neo geuttae han bakja neutge naetjana.

    That's only because you cheated at rock-paper-scissors. You threw yours a beat late that time.

  5. B 내일이 곡연인 λ§ˆλ‹Ήμ— κ°€μœ„λ°”μœ„λ³΄ μ–˜κΈ°λ₯Ό 또 ν•˜μžκ³ ? 우리 μ—„λ§ˆκ°€ 이럴 λ•Œ μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ λ§ν•˜κ±°λ“ . "μ§€κΈˆ 그게 μ€‘μš”ν•˜λ‹ˆ?"

    Naeiri gongyeonin madange gawibawibo yaegireul tto hajago? Uri eommaga ireol ttae ireoke malhageodeun. "Jigeum geuge jungyohani?"

    The show's tomorrow and you want to bring up rock-paper-scissors again? My mom says this at times like this: "Is that really what matters right now?"

  6. A μ•Œμ•˜μ–΄, μ•Œμ•˜μ–΄. 그럼 λˆ„κ°€ 더 μ„ μƒλ‹˜ 같은지 ν•œ λ²ˆμ”© ν•΄ 보자. λ‚΄κ°€ λ¨Όμ € ν•œλ‹€. "λ°•μ˜ˆλ¦°! μ–΄μ©œ μˆ™μ œλ₯Ό ν•œ λ²ˆλ„ μ•ˆ ν•΄ μ˜€λ‹ˆ!"

    Arasseo, arasseo. Geureom nuga deo seonsaengnim gateunji han beonssik hae boja. Naega meonjeo handa. "Bagyerin! Eojjeom sukjereul han beondo an hae oni!"

    Okay, okay. Then let's each have a go and see who's more like a teacher. I'll go first. "Park Yerin! How is it you never, ever do your homework!"

  7. B λ„ˆλ¬΄ μ•½ν•΄. μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ€ μ•ˆκ²½μ„ μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ μ“± μ˜¬λ¦¬λ©΄μ„œ ν•΄μ•Όμ§€. 봐 봐. "μˆ™μ œλ₯Ό κ°•μ•„μ§€κ°€ λ¨Ήμ—ˆλ‹€κ³ ? κ·Έ 말을 μ§€κΈˆ μ„ μƒλ‹˜λ”λŸ¬ λ―ΏμœΌλΌλŠ” κ±°λ‹ˆ!"

    Neomu yakae. Seonsaengnimeun angyeongeul ireoke sseuk ollimyeonseo haeyaji. Bwa bwa. "Sukjereul gangajiga meogeotdago? Geu mareul jigeum seonsaengnimdeoreo mideuraneun geoni!"

    Too weak. A teacher has to push her glasses up like this. Watch. "The dog ate your homework? And you expect me to believe that?"

  8. A μš°μ™€, μ’€ 무섭닀. 근데 우리 λ‹΄μž„ μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ€ μ•ˆκ²½ μ•ˆ μ“°μ‹œμž–μ•„.

    Uwa, jom museopda. Geunde uri damim seonsaengnimeun angyeong an sseusijana.

    Whoa, that's kind of scary. But our homeroom teacher doesn't even wear glasses.

  9. B κ·ΈλŸ¬λ‹ˆκΉŒ 더 웃기지. 관객듀이 λ‹΄μž„ μ„ μƒλ‹˜ μ³λ‹€λ³΄λ©΄μ„œ 웃을 거라고.

    Geureonikka deo utgiji. Gwangaekdeuri damim seonsaengnim chyeodabomyeonseo useul georago.

    That's what makes it funnier. The audience will look over at our teacher and laugh.

  10. A κ·Έλž˜λ„ λ‚˜ 학생은 μ‹«μ–΄. 계속 "μ£„μ†‘ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€"만 ν•˜λ‹€κ°€ λλ‚˜μž–μ•„. λŒ€μ‚¬κ°€ λ„€ 쀄밖에 μ—†μ–΄.

    Geuraedo na haksaengeun sireo. Gyesok "joesonghamnida"man hadaga kkeunnajana. Daesaga ne julbakke eopseo.

    I still don't want to be the student. All he does is say "I'm sorry" till the end. He's only got four lines.

  11. B 학생이 λ„˜μ–΄μ§€λŠ” μž₯면도 μžˆμž–μ•„. 그게 제일 웃긴 μž₯면인데 λ„Œ λ„˜μ–΄μ§€λŠ” μ‹œλŠ‰μ„ μ§„μ§œ μž˜ν•˜μž–μ•„.

    Haksaengi neomeojineun jangmyeondo itjana. Geuge jeil utgin jangmyeoninde neon neomeojineun sinyungeul jinjja jalhajana.

    There's the scene where the student falls over. That's the funniest scene, and you're really good at pretending to fall.

  12. A 칭찬이야, μš•μ΄μ•Ό? μ•„λ¬΄νŠΌ μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ μ‹Έμš°λ‹€κ°€λŠ” μ—°μŠ΅ ν•œ λ²ˆλ„ λͺ» ν•˜κ² λ‹€.

    Chingchaniya, yogiya? Amuteun ireoke ssaudaganeun yeonseup han beondo mot hagetda.

    Is that a compliment or an insult? Anyway, if we keep fighting like this, we won't get to practise even once.

  13. B 곡연을 μ½”μ•žμ— λ‘” λ§ˆλ‹Ήμ— μ‹Έμš°κ³ λ§Œ 있으면 μ–΄λ–‘ν•΄. 무슨 쒋은 방법 μ—†μ„κΉŒ?

    Gongyeoneul koape dun madange ssaugoman isseumyeon eotteokae. Museun joeun bangbeop eopseulkka?

    What are we doing, just fighting, when the show's right around the corner? Isn't there some good way to sort this out?

  14. A μ•„! 쀑간에 λ°”κΎΈλ©΄ λ˜μž–μ•„. λ°˜μ€ λ‚΄κ°€ μ„ μƒλ‹˜, λ°˜μ€ λ„€κ°€ μ„ μƒλ‹˜.

    A! Junggane bakkumyeon doejana. Baneun naega seonsaengnim, baneun nega seonsaengnim.

    Oh! We can just swap halfway through. I'm the teacher for half, and you're the teacher for the other half.

  15. B 쀑간에 μ–΄λ–»κ²Œ λ°”κΏ”? 관객듀이 ν—·κ°ˆλ €ν•˜μ§€ μ•Šμ„κΉŒ?

    Junggane eotteoke bakkwo? Gwangaekdeuri hetgallyeohaji aneulkka?

    How do we swap in the middle? Won't the audience get confused?

  16. A μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ 학생 가방에 κ±Έλ € λ„˜μ–΄μ§€λ©΄μ„œ μ•ˆκ²½μ„ λ–¨μ–΄λœ¨λ¦¬λŠ” κ±°μ•Ό. 그럼 λ„€κ°€ κ·Έκ±Έ μ£Όμ›Œ μ“°κ³  μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ λ˜λŠ” κ±°μ§€.

    Seonsaengnimi haksaeng gabange geollyeo neomeojimyeonseo angyeongeul tteoreotteurineun geoya. Geureom nega geugeol juwo sseugo seonsaengnimi doeneun geoji.

    The teacher trips over the student's bag and drops her glasses. Then you pick them up, put them on and become the teacher.

  17. B 였, 그럼 λ„˜μ–΄μ§€λŠ” 것도 λ„€κ°€ ν•˜κ³  μ„ μƒλ‹˜λ„ λ„€κ°€ λ¨Όμ € ν•˜λ„€? μ’€ μ–΅μ§€ κ°™κΈ΄ ν•œλ° 웃기긴 ν•˜κ² λ‹€.

    O, geureom neomeojineun geotdo nega hago seonsaengnimdo nega meonjeo hane? Jom eokji gatgin hande utgigin hagetda.

    Oh, so you get to fall over and be the teacher first? It's a bit of a stretch, but it would be funny.

  18. A λŒ€μ‹  λ§ˆμ§€λ§‰ λŒ€μ‚¬λŠ” λ„€κ°€ ν•΄. μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ λ„˜μ–΄μ‘ŒλŠ”λ° 학생이 μ›ƒλŠ” μž₯면이야. 제일 λ©‹μ§„ λŒ€μ‚¬λ‘œ.

    Daesin majimak daesaneun nega hae. Seonsaengnimi neomeojyeonneunde haksaengi unneun jangmyeoniya. Jeil meotjin daesaro.

    But you get the last line. It's the scene where the teacher's fallen over and the student laughs. Make it the best line.

  19. B μ’‹μ•„! μ—°μŠ΅ν•΄ 볼게. "κΉ€κ±΄μš°! μ–΄μ©œ μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ λ„˜μ–΄μ‘ŒλŠ”λ° μ›ƒκΈ°λ§Œ ν•˜λ‹ˆ! λ„ˆ λ‚΄μΌκΉŒμ§€ λ°˜μ„±λ¬Έ μ—΄ μž₯!"

    Joa! Yeonseupae bolge. "Gimgeonu! Eojjeom seonsaengnimi neomeojyeonneunde utgiman hani! Neo naeilkkaji banseongmun yeol jang!"

    Deal! Let me practise. "Kim Geonu! How can you just laugh when your teacher has fallen over! Ten pages of apology by tomorrow!"

  20. A 크크, λ°˜μ„±λ¬Έ μ—΄ μž₯은 λ„ˆλ¬΄ν–ˆλ‹€. 우리 μ„ μƒλ‹˜λ„ μ„Έ μž₯밖에 μ•ˆ μ‹œν‚€μ…”. ν˜Έλ“€κ°‘ μ’€ 쀄여.

    Keukeu, banseongmun yeol jangeun neomuhaetda. Uri seonsaengnimdo se jangbakke an sikisyeo. Hodeulgap jom juryeo.

    Heh, ten pages is way too much. Even our teacher only makes us write three. Tone down the drama a bit.

  21. B μ½©νŠΈλ‹ˆκΉŒ κ³Όμž₯ν•΄μ•Ό 웃기지. 자, 이제 μ§„μ§œ μ²˜μŒλΆ€ν„° ν•΄ 보자. μ•ˆκ²½ λŒ€μ‹  μ—„λ§ˆ μ„ κΈ€λΌμŠ€ κ°€μ Έμ™”μ–΄.

    Kongteunikka gwajanghaeya utgiji. Ja, ije jinjja cheoeumbuteo hae boja. Angyeong daesin eomma seongeullaseu gajyeowasseo.

    It's a sketch, so it has to be over the top to be funny. Okay, now let's really do it from the top. I brought my mom's sunglasses instead of glasses.

  22. A μ„ κΈ€λΌμŠ€ μ“΄ μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ μ–΄λ”” μžˆμ–΄? ...μ•„λ‹ˆλ‹€, 그게 더 웃기겠닀. μ‹œμž‘!

    Seongeullaseu sseun seonsaengnimi eodi isseo? ...Anida, geuge deo utgigetda. Sijak!

    What teacher wears sunglasses? ...Actually, never mind, that'll be even funnier. Go!
