Day 28: Donating Toys, Except the Bear

At home, Jia (A) and her mom (B) sort through Jia's toys to give to a charity shop.

How to study this lesson 4 steps

Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
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.
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.
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.

B 지아야, 기부할 장난감은 이 상자에 넣어.

Jiaya, gibuhal jangnangameun i sangjae neoeo.

Jia, put the toys you're giving away in this box.
A 알았어. 이 자동차랑 블록은 이제 안 가지고 놀아. 다 줄래.

Arasseo. I jadongcharang beullogeun ije an gajigo nora. Da jullae.

Okay. I don't play with this car and the blocks any more. I'll give them all away.
B 와, 우리 지아 멋있네. 다른 친구들이 좋아할 거야.

Wa, uri Jia meosinne. Dareun chingudeuri joahal geoya.

Wow, that's so nice of you, Jia. Other kids will love them.
A 인형도 나눠 줄게. 토끼 인형이랑 강아지 인형.

Inhyeongdo nanwo julge. Tokki inhyeongirang gangaji inhyeong.

I'll share my soft toys too. The rabbit and the puppy.
B 곰 인형은? 그것도 많이 낡았는데.

Gom inhyeongeun? Geugeotdo mani nalganneunde.

What about your teddy bear? It's pretty worn out too.
A 곰돌이는... 음, 줄게. 다른 애가 더 사랑해 줄 거야.

Gomdorineun... eum, julge. Dareun aega deo saranghae jul geoya.

Teddy... um, okay, I'll give him away. Another kid will love him even more.
B 좋아. 그럼 다 정리하고 나서 가게에 가자.

Joa. Geureom da jeongnihago naseo gagee gaja.

Okay. Once we've sorted everything, let's go to the shop.
A 엄마... 나 결국 곰돌이 다시 꺼내고 말았어. 곰돌이 없으면 잠이 안 올 것 같아.

Eomma... na gyeolguk gomdori dasi kkeonaego marasseo. Gomdori eopseumyeon jami an ol geot gata.

Mom... I ended up taking Teddy back out. I don't think I can sleep without him.
B 그럴 것 같았어. 괜찮아, 곰돌이는 계속 지아 방에 있어도 돼.

Geureol geot gatasseo. Gwaenchana, gomdorineun gyesok Jia bange isseodo dwae.

I thought you might. It's okay, Teddy can stay in your room.
A 대신 내 책 다섯 권 더 넣을게. 그럼 괜찮지?

Daesin nae chaek daseot gwon deo neoeulge. Geureom gwaenchanchi?

Instead, I'll put in five more of my books. That's okay, right?
B 당연하지. 기부하고 나서 아이스크림 먹으러 가자.

Dangyeonhaji. Gibuhago naseo aiseukeurim meogeureo gaja.

Of course. After we drop everything off, let's go and get ice cream.
