Questions & Answers about sae undongbogeul ipgo gongwone ganeun ge johayo.

What does 입고 mean, and how does the -고 ending work here?

입다 means “to wear.” When you add -고, it becomes 입고, the connective form, which links actions. So 입고 literally means “wearing (and then)…,” connecting it to the next action, 공원에 가다.

Why is 새 used before 운동복, and what role does the -을 in 운동복을 play?

• 새 is an attributive adjective meaning “new,” and it directly modifies the noun 운동복 (“workout clothes”).
• The particle -을 is the object marker. It shows that 운동복 is the direct object of 입고 (you wear the workout clothes).

What does 공원에 mean, and why is the location marked with -에 instead of -에서?

• 공원 means “park.”
• -에 indicates the destination (“to the park”).
  If you used -에서, it would mean “at the park” (location of an action), not “going to the park.”

What is the function of 가는 게, and why not just 가는 것이?

• 가는 is the present participle of 가다 (“to go”).
• 것이 nominalizes the verb (“the act of going”). In everyday Korean, 것이 contracts to 게.
  So 가는 게 = “going” as a noun phrase.
