Korean Learn (Level 3 part 15) [geureomyeon-in that case]

안녕하세요!
Welcome back to another lesson on conjunctions!
Today we are introducing a conjunction that means “in that case” or “if so”.

그러면 [geu-reo-myeon] = in that case, if so, then

Do you remember -(으)면?

Yes, we introduced it in Level 2 part 23.

만약 -(으)면 or -(으)면 means “if” or “in case”.

그러면 is a combination of 그렇다 [geu-reot-ta], which means “to be so” and -면.

A shorter version of 그러면In spoken Korean (and very often also in casual written Korean), instead of saying 그러면,people just use the shortened form of 그럼 [geu-reom]. Try not to confuse it with 그런 [geureon], which means “such”.

Sample sentences
1. 그러면 이거는 뭐예요?
[geu-reo-myeon i-geo-neun mwo-ye-yo?]
= Then, what is THIS?

2. 지금 바빠요? 그럼 언제 안 바빠요?
[ ji-geum ba-ppa-yo? geu-reom eon-je an ba-ppa-yo?]
= You’re busy now? Then WHEN are you not busy?

3. 한국 음식 좋아해요? 그러면 김밥도 좋아해요?
[han-guk eum-sik jo-a-hae-yo? geu-reo-myeon gim-bap-do jo-a-hae-yo?]
= Do you like Korean food? Then do you like kimbap too?

4. 진짜요? 그럼 이제 어떻게 해요?
[ jin-jja-yo? geu-reom i-je eo-tteo-ke hae-yo?]
= Really? If so, what do we do now?

5. 그럼 이거는 어때요?
[geu-reom i-geo-neun eo-ttae-yo?]
= Then how about this one?

Finish for this part.... see you at the next part ^_^
