Sino Korean Vocab; The 생 in 인생 Meaning

The 생 in 인생 meaning comes from the Hanja 生 which meaning is tied to life and living. You’ll find 생 in a lot of words; from a social life, birth, and even over to students!

생: life 인생: human life 생명: life, soul 일상생활: everyday (daily) life 일생: one’s lifetime 평생: lifetime 사생활: private life 사회생활: social life 생계: livelihood 생활: someone’s lifestyle/daily life 생활비: cost of living 생활환경: living environment 고생: a hard life/hardships

고생하다: to suffer/have hardships 발생하다: to occur/happen

미생물: microbe 발생: occurrence 생장: growth 생존: being/existence 동생: younger sibling

생산: production 생산자: manufacturer/producer 생존: survival 생존자: survivor

재생: rebirth/regeneration/reincarnation (lit. again/re- life) 출생: baby birth 탄생: birth (more general; can be used for animals, birth of new technology, etc.) 년생: year of birth 생일: birthday

Student Vocab with 생 Hanja

While 인생 meaning can seem intuitive once you learn that 생 is tied to life you might be confused as to why 생 and its Hanja is found in words for students, studying, and teachers. 생 means life but also living so when I think about it I can see the connection, 학 is tied to learning so a student’s life is focused on learning, right?

생물: creature (lit. life creature) 생물학: biology (lit. life creature learning) 생화학: biochemistry (lit. life change learning)

선생: teacher 학생: student 신입생: a new student/freshman 유학생: exchange student/student studying abroad

대학생: university student 중학생: middle school student 초등학생: an elementary school student 모범생: model student 장학생: student on a scholarship 학생증: student identification 졸업생: a graduate

The rare and satisfying feeling of an old skill being very handy in a new context. I started doing at home yoga at 21 (back in the 1960s) with a friend because we hated our bodies but were too cheap for gym memberships, kept doing it intermittently because a) the stretching helped my back b) still cheap, and as a result am the most flexible person BY A MILE in my taekwondo classes. Some of these hoes have a black/red belt in their teens but I’m the one doing a 3 minute plank without blinking.

v. 실감하다 (實感하다)

to feel, to sense, to realize [smth as actually happening]

EXAMPLE SENTENCE

며칠째 그에게 연락이 없는 것을 확인한 후에야 나는 이별을 실감했다. Only after confirming that for the last few days there's no contact incoming from them, the reality of breakup started sinking in for me.

NOTES

the difference between 실감하다 (실감을 하다) and 실감나다 (실감이 나다) is that the former is a transitive verb and it's used with the object marker -을/를, while the latter is intransitive and is used either with subject marker -이/가 or topic marker -은/는. it's the basic transitive/intransitive, or active/passive sentence structure differences.

to go into more detail, in the example sentence we have "이별을 실감했다" , which very literally and simply would translate as "I sensed a breakup" – this type of form highlights the speaker as someone actively sensing or feeling the breakup. if we wanted to say the same sentence with 실감나다, it would look something like: "이별은 실감이 났다". this type of format takes the spotlight from the speaker, immediately erasing them as someone relevant (i.e. there's no need for an active feeler) implying that the breakup happens by itself and we could translate the sentence as "a breakup has become a reality". this highlights the the breakup itself and the fact that it's becoming a reality.

RELATED WORDS

n. 실감 = lifelike feeling, real feeling

phr. 실감이 나다 (실감나다) = to be realistic, convincing, [for smth] to sink in

phr. 실감이 안 나다/나지 않다 = to not be realistic, convincing (commonly used when one wants to say something "doesn't feel real")

SINO KOREAN NUMBERS PT.1

2024년 8월 7일

안녕하세요 여러분!

Today, i’m going to share how you use sino-korean numbers. You use this numbers to say:

Telephone numbers (05860791834)

Metro/Bus lines (Line 8 / Bus 576)

Height/Weight (150cm and 50kg)

Years old (45yo)

Minutes and seconds (45min and 20 seconds)

Prices (5,000 wons)

Directions (Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney)

Then, after you know this, let get into what we want to know: sino-korean numbers.

0 = 영/공

1 = 일

2 = 이

3 = 삼

4 = 사

5 = 오

6 = 육

7 = 칠

8 = 팔

9 = 구

10 = 십

100 = 백

1.000 = 천

10.000 = 만

100.000 = 십만

1.000.000 = 백만

Now, how do you form numbers like 56, 184, 7.694, 15.696, 294.586 or 6.746.329?

Take you time, please, to read this. If you don’t understand, send me an ask / open the chat and i’ll explain it writting it in a paper <3

These numbers form multiplying and adding numbers. I’ll explain it with the numbers above.

56 = 5 x 10 (50) + 6 = 오 (5) x 십 (10) + 육 (6) = 오십육 (56)

184 = 100 + 8x10 (80) + 4 = 백 (100) + 팔 (8) x 십 (10) + 사 (4) = 백팔십사 (184)

7.694 = 7x1000 (7.000) + 6x100 (600) + 9x10 (90) + 4 = 칠 (7) + 천 (1000) + 육 (6) x 백 (100) + 구 (9) x 십 (10) + 사 (4) = 칠천육백구십사 (7.694)

Lets stop here. Why? Okay, so, you know, we always separate numbers by 3 figures/numbers (9.999.999 for example), but koreans do separate them by 4 figures/numbers. It sounds complicated, i know (my brain freeze the first time i hear it lol).

If the number have more than 4 figures, please, separate them like this:

15.696 = 10.000 // 5.696

1 (10.000) + 5x1000 (5.000) + 6x100 (600) + 9x10 (90) + 6 =

만 (10.000) + 오 (5) x 천 (1.000) + 육 (6) x 백 (100) + 구 (9) x 십 (10) + 육 (6) = 만오천육백구십육 (15.696)

294.586 = 290.000 // 4.586

Tip: 100.000 is 십만, right? okay, and here, you have two numbers: 29 so it will be 2십9만. The first number (2) goes before 십, and the second number (9) goes between 십 and 만.

29 (290.000) + 4x1000 (4.000) + 5x100 (500) + 8x10 (80) + 6 =

이십구만사천오백팔십육

6.746.329 = 6.740.000 / 6.329

Tip: 1.000.000 is 백만. So, here, you have three numbers: 674 and it will be 6백74만. The first number (6) goes before 백, and the second and third number goes between 백 and 만, those two numbers have to be said as a pair, which means, you have to say 74 (7x10+4), not 7 + 4.

6.746.329 = 6x100 (600) + 7x10 (70) + 4 (4) // 6x1000 (6000) + 3x100 (300) + 2x10 (20) + 9 =

육백칠십사만육천삼백이십구.

I know its scary at first, but now, you are going to be able to say from 0 to 9.999.999 in korean! With practice, it will be more easy with the time!

For part two i’ll share how to say korean telephone numbers, what termination you have to use for years, kg, cm, etc.

어제는 한중의 수를 공부했어요: 저는 수마다 한중처럼 읽고 있었어요 ㅋㅋ 너무 재밌었어요. 누가 제 전화번호를 묻면, 웃을고 그것을 쓸 거예요 ㅋㅋ 그러나 이거 말해서 훈련해고 있어요. 아, 어렵다!~ 그런데 진��� 재밌다, 저는 한국어 배우고 너무 좋아요. 저는 제을 곧 나았으면 좋겠어요. 선생님들 너무 감사합니다, 제에게 도움과 가르치고 있어요.
