Questions & Answers about chimsire noheul jageun chaeksangeul sagiro haesseo.

Why is 에 attached to 침실?

에 is the location particle. It tells us where something happens or where something is placed. In 침실에 놓을, it means “(that I will) put it in the bedroom.”

Why is 놓을 used instead of 놓는다 or 놓았다?

Because 놓을 is the attributive (modifier) form of 놓다. When you want to modify a noun (here, 작은 책상) with a verb, you use its ✱relative clause✱ form:

• Present/future modifier: verb stem + -(으)ㄹ → 놓을 (that I will put)
• Habitual or descriptive: verb stem + -는 → 놓는 (the desk I put)
• Past modifier: verb stem + -은/ㄴ → 놓은 (the desk I put)

What’s the difference between the -을 in 놓을 and the -을 in 책상을?

They look the same but serve different roles:

• In 놓을, -을 is the future/attributive suffix attached directly to the verb stem (no space).
• In 책상을, -을 is the object particle marking 작은 책상 as the object of 사기로 했어 (it’s written as part of the noun but conceptually a separate particle).
