Questions & Answers about gonghangeseo gukjeseon pyoreul sayo.
Why is 에서 used after 공항? What does it indicate?
에서 marks the place where an action happens (or “from” with motion verbs). Here, 공항에서 means “at the airport,” showing where you buy the ticket.
What’s the difference between 에 and 에서?
- 에 indicates a destination (“to”) or a static location (“at” in a state-of-being sense).
- 에서 indicates the location of an action (“at”) or the origin of motion (“from”).
Example:
• 집에 가요 – I go to my house.
• 집에서 쉬어요 – I rest at my house.
Why is it 국제선 표? What do 국제 and 선 mean?
- 국제 (國際) means “international.”
- 선 (線) means “route,” “line,” or “flight” in this context.
Combined, 국제선 means “international flight route.” Adding 표 (票, “ticket”) gives 국제선 표, “international flight ticket.”
What is the function of 를 in 표를 사요?
를/을 is the direct-object particle. It attaches to 표 because the ticket is the object being bought.
