Questions & Answers about misulgwane garyeomyeon miri onraineuro yemaehaeya hae.
What does -려면 mean in 미술관에 가려면, and how is it used here?
-려면 is a conditional suffix attached to the verb stem (가다 → 가려면). It means “if you want to …” or “in order to …”. Here 미술관에 가려면 literally means “if you want to go to the art museum”.
How does the particle 에 work in 미술관에 가려면?
The particle 에 marks a destination or location. In 미술관에 가려면, 미술관에 means “to the art museum.” So 가다 (to go) takes 에 to show where you’re going.
What does 미리 mean, and why is it used here?
미리 is an adverb meaning “in advance” or “ahead of time.” It specifies that the action must be done before your visit, so 미리 예매해야 해 means “you have to book in advance.”
Why is 온라인으로 used instead of just 온라인?
온라인으로 uses the particle -으로, which indicates the means or method (“by/through”).
• 온라인 by itself is a noun (“online”).
• 온라인으로 ≈ “online(ly),” i.e., “by going through an online method.”
What’s the difference between 예매 and 예약?
• 예매 (豫買) refers to booking tickets or reserving seats (movies, concerts, museums).
• 예약 (預約) is a more general reservation (restaurants, hotels, doctors).
In this sentence, you use 예매 because you’re purchasing admission tickets for the museum.
What nuance and speech level does 해야 해 convey, and can it be changed?
• 해야 해 is the informal polite (hae) form of “you have to ….”
• Nuance: It’s a direct obligation in everyday speech.
