Questions & Answers about amachueo geukdani mudae uisangeul junbihaesseo.

What does 아마추어 극단 mean as a phrase?

아마추어 극단 means an amateur theater troupe/company.

• 아마추어 = amateur
• 극단 = a theater troupe, dramatic company, or stage group

In Korean, nouns are often placed next to each other like this to make one larger noun phrase, so 아마추어 극단 is literally something like amateur theater group.

Why is the subject particle 이 used after 극단?

The particle 이/가 marks the subject.

Here, the subject is 아마추어 극단이 = the amateur theater troupe.

Korean chooses between 이 and 가 based on the final sound of the noun:

• after a noun ending in a consonant → 이
• after a noun ending in a vowel → 가

극단 ends in ㄴ, which is a consonant, so it becomes 극단이.

What is 무대 의상? Is it one idea or two separate nouns?
