Questions & Answers about geumyoil ohueneun jeojjok geonmul oksangeseo swigido haeyo.

Why do we use -에는 after 금요일 오후 instead of just -에?

금요일 오후에 means “on Friday afternoon.” Adding 는 (→ 금요일 오후에는) topicalizes that time frame—“as for Friday afternoons…”—and is commonly used to talk about habits or general statements linked to that time.
Example:

• 주말에는 운동을 해요. (On weekends, I (we) exercise.)

What does 저쪽 mean and how is it different from 저기 or 거기?

저쪽 literally means “that side” or “over there” (a direction farther from both speaker and listener).

• 저기 = “there” (a neutral “there”)
• 저쪽 = “that way/side over there” (more directional)
• 거기 = “there” closer to the listener’s side
  Example:
• 저쪽 건물 = “the building over there (in that direction)”

Why is 옥상에서 using 에서 instead of 에?

에서 marks the place where an action occurs. Since 쉬다 (to rest) is an action, you say 옥상에서 쉬다 (“rest at the rooftop”).

• Action verbs → use 에서
• Existence or destination → use 에
  Examples:
• 교실에서 공부해요. (I study in the classroom.)
• 집에 있어요. (I’m at home.)

What does -기도 해요 indicate in 쉬기도 해요?
