Korean Learn (Level 2 part 26) [ask someone to do something]



we wanna learn how to tell someone to do something in polite Korean. This is one of the most essential things to be able to say, even when you are just asking for a favor

In order to tell someone to do something, you basically add -(으)세요 [-(eu)se-yo] at the end of the verb stem. Verb stems ending with a consonant are followed by -으세요 (-euseyo) and verb stems ending with a vowel or with the consonant “ㄹ” are followed by -세요 (-seyo).

Exception:

When a verb stem ends with the last consonant ㄹ, you drop the ㄹ and add -세요 (-seyo).

팔다 [pal-da] = to sell
팔 --> 파 + 세요 = 파세요 [pa-se-yo] = Please sell it.
