Questions & Answers about maeil undongeul hamyeon geonganghaeyo.

What role does 매일 play in this sentence?

매일 is an adverb meaning every day. It modifies the verb phrase that follows, indicating the frequency of the action (exercising daily).

What is 운동을, and what does the particle -을 indicate?

운동 means exercise. The particle -을 is the object marker, showing that 운동 is the direct object of the verb 하다 (to do). Together, 운동을 하다 means “to do exercise.”

Why is 하면 used here, and what does it mean?

하면 is the conditional form of 하다 (verb stem 하- + -면). It means “if (you) do”. So 운동을 하면 means “if (you) exercise.”

Could I say 운동을 매일 하면 건강해요 instead of 매일 운동을 하면 건강해요?

Yes. Korean word order is flexible for adverbs. 운동을 매일 하면 건강해요 still means “If you exercise every day, (you) are healthy.” The emphasis shifts slightly, but it’s grammatically correct.

Can I drop the object particle -을 in 운동을 하면 and just say 운동 하면?
