Day 172 of 215

Day 172: Two Files Named 'Final'

At a print shop an hour before her thesis deadline, Hana (A) hands a USB stick to the clerk, Taewoo (B).

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. A μ €κΈ°μš”, 이 USB에 μžˆλŠ” 파일 μ’€ 인쇄해 μ£Όμ„Έμš”. ν•œ μ‹œκ°„ μ•ˆμ— λ‚΄μ•Ό λΌμš”.

    Jeogiyo, i USBe inneun pail jom inswaehae juseyo. Han sigan ane naeya dwaeyo.

    Excuse me, could you print a file from this USB stick? I have to hand it in within an hour.

  2. B λ„€, 파일 이름이 λ­μ˜ˆμš”?

    Ne, pail ireumi mwoyeyo?

    Sure, what's the file called?

  3. A 'μ‘Έμ—… λ…Όλ¬Έ μ΅œμ’…'이라고 된 κ±°μš”.

    'Joreop nonmun choejong'irago doen geoyo.

    The one called "Thesis Final".

  4. B 음... 'μ΅œμ’…'이라고 μ“°μ—¬ μžˆλŠ” 파일이 두 κ°œμΈλ°μš”. ν•˜λ‚˜λŠ” 'μ΅œμ’…', ν•˜λ‚˜λŠ” 'μ§„μ§œ μ΅œμ’…'μ΄μ—μš”.

    Eum... 'choejong'irago sseuyeo inneun pairi du gaeindeyo. Hananeun 'choejong', hananeun 'jinjja choejong'ieyo.

    Um... there are two files that say "Final". One is "Final" and the other is "Really Final".

  5. A λ„€? 밀을 μƒˆμ›Œμ„œ 기얡이 ν•˜λ‚˜λ„ μ•ˆ λ‚˜μš”.

    Ne? Bameul saewoseo gieogi hanado an nayo.

    What? I stayed up all night, so I don't remember a thing.

  6. B μ €μž₯ν•œ μ‹œκ°„μ„ 보면 μ•Œ 수 μžˆμ–΄μš”. 'μ§„μ§œ μ΅œμ’…'이 μƒˆλ²½ λ„€ μ‹œμ— μ €μž₯λλ„€μš”.

    Jeojanghan siganeul bomyeon al su isseoyo. 'Jinjja choejong'i saebyeok ne sie jeojangdwaenneyo.

    We can tell from when they were saved. "Really Final" was saved at 4 a.m.

  7. A 그럼 그게 λ§žμ„ κ±°μ˜ˆμš”. λ§ˆκ°μ— λŠ¦μ§€ μ•ŠκΈ° μœ„ν•΄ μƒˆλ²½κΉŒμ§€ κ³ μ³€κ±°λ“ μš”.

    Geureom geuge majeul geoyeyo. Magame neutji anki wihae saebyeokkkaji gochyeotgeodeunyo.

    Then that must be it. I was fixing it until dawn so I wouldn't miss the deadline.

  8. B ν˜Ήμ‹œ λͺ¨λ₯΄λ‹ˆκΉŒ νŒŒμΌμ„ μ—΄μ–΄μ„œ ν•œλ²ˆ 확인해 λ³Όκ²Œμš”.

    Hoksi moreunikka paireul yeoreoseo hanbeon hwaginhae bolgeyo.

    Just in case, I'll open it and check.

  9. A λ„€. λ§ˆμ§€λ§‰ μž₯에 ν‘œλ₯Ό ν•˜λ‚˜ λ„£μ—ˆμ–΄μš”. 그게 있으면 λ§žμ•„μš”.

    Ne. Majimak jange pyoreul hana neoeosseoyo. Geuge isseumyeon majayo.

    Okay. I added a table on the last page. If it's there, that's the one.

  10. B μž κΉλ§Œμš”, ν‘œκ°€ μ—†λŠ”λ°μš”? ν‘œλŠ” 'μ΅œμ’…' νŒŒμΌμ— μžˆλ„€μš”.

    Jamkkanmanyo, pyoga eomneundeyo? Pyoneun 'choejong' paire inneyo.

    Hang on, there's no table here. It's in the "Final" file.

  11. A λ„€? 그럼 μƒˆλ²½μ— μ œκ°€ 뭘 ν•œ κ±°μ˜ˆμš”? μ•„λ¬΄νŠΌ 'μ΅œμ’…'으둜 μ„Έ λΆ€ 뽑아 μ£Όμ„Έμš”.

    Ne? Geureom saebyeoge jega mwol han geoyeyo? Amuteun 'choejong'euro se bu ppoba juseyo.

    What? Then what was I doing at 4 a.m.? Anyway, please print three copies of "Final".

  12. B λ„€, μ„Έ λΆ€ λ°”λ‘œ 뽑아 λ“œλ¦΄κ²Œμš”.

    Ne, se bu baro ppoba deurilgeyo.

    Sure, I'll print three copies right away.
