Questions & Answers about keompyuteoreul ppareuge kyeogo inteonese yeongyeolhae.
Why is 컴퓨터를 using the particle -를 here?
Because 켜다 is a transitive verb that takes a direct object, and -을/를 marks that object. So 컴퓨터를 켜다 literally means “to turn on the computer.”
Why is 빠르게 used instead of 빨리?
Both 빠르게 and 빨리 mean “quickly.” 빠르게 is the adverb form of the adjective 빠르다 using -게, giving it a slightly more formal or descriptive feel. 빨리 is a native adverb. In most contexts they’re interchangeable, but 빠르게 can sound a bit more deliberate.
Can the adverb 빠르게 go in a different position?
Yes. Korean word order is flexible as long as the verb stays at the end. You could say:
- 빠르게 컴퓨터를 켜고 인터넷에 연결해
- 컴퓨터를 켜고 인터넷에 빠르게 연결해
Both still mean “Turn on the computer quickly and connect to the internet.”
What does the -고 ending in 켜고 do?
The connective ending -고 links two verbs in sequence, similar to “do A and then do B.” Here it joins 켜다 (“turn on”) to 연결해 (“connect”), indicating you do them one after another.
Why is there no subject in the sentence?
