Questions & Answers about yemaehaji anheumyeon misulgwane mos deureogayo.
What does 예매하다 mean?
예매하다 is a verb meaning “to reserve or buy tickets in advance.” It literally combines 예 (beforehand) + 매 (buy) + 하다 (to do).
How does the conditional ending -지 않으면 work in 예매하지 않으면?
Attach -지 않으면 to a verb stem to mean if you don’t [verb]. It’s built from -지 않다 (negative) + -으면 (if). So 예매하지 않으면 means if you don’t reserve.
Why is 못 used before 들어가요 instead of 안?
못 expresses inability (“cannot”), while 안 is simple negation or choice (“don’t”). Here the intended meaning is “cannot enter,” so we use 못 들어가요.
Is 예매하지 않으면 미술관에 못 들어가요 a double negative, and does it cancel out?
No. The first negative (-지 않으면) sets a condition (“if you don’t…”), and 못 marks inability in that condition. They don’t cancel; together they mean “if you don’t do X, you won’t be able to do Y.”
Why is 미술관에 used with 들어가다? Couldn’t it be 미술관에서 or 미술관으로?
