Questions & Answers about jeoneun hanggongsa-e jeonhwahaeyo.
저는 is a combination of the first-person pronoun 저 (“I”) plus the topic particle -는. It marks “I” as the topic of the sentence, signaling that what follows is about “me.”
Here -에 marks the destination or target of an action (“to the airline”). When you “call” someone in Korean, the person or organization you are calling usually takes -에, not the object particle -를. It literally conveys “I phone to the airline.”
전화해요 comes from the Sino-Korean noun 전화 (電話, “phone call”) + the verb 하다 (“to do”). Conjugated in polite present tense:
• 전화 + 하다 → 전화하다
• 전화하다 → 전화해요
Yes. Because 전화 is originally a noun, you can treat it as a direct object:
• 전화를 하다 (to do a phone call)
• 전화를 해요 (I make a phone call)
However, 전화하다 is such a common compound verb that Koreans often drop the object marker and say 전화해요 without changing the meaning.
