Questions & Answers about naeilbuteo sugang sincheongi sijakdwae.
What does 내일부터 break down into, and what does it mean?
내일부터 = 내일 (tomorrow) + 부터 (from). Together it literally means “from tomorrow,” i.e. “starting tomorrow.”
How does the time particle 부터 function here?
부터 marks the starting point in time or space. When attached to a time expression (like 내일), it means “from [that time].” You could contrast it with 까지 (“until”), as in 내일부터 다음주까지 (“from tomorrow until next week”).
What is 수강 신청, literally and functionally?
수강 신청 is a compound noun:
- 수강 comes from 듣다 (to take a course) + 강 (lecture), so it means “taking a course.”
- 신청 means “application” or “registration.”
Put together, 수강 신청 means “course registration.”
Why do we attach 이 to 신청, and why not 은/는?
- 이 is the subject marker for nouns ending in a consonant (신청 ends in ㅇ).
- It simply marks “수강 신청” as the subject of 시작돼 (“registration starts”).
- You could use 은/는 to add contrast or topic emphasis, but here 이 is the neutral subject marker.
