Questions & Answers about seoryureul keompyuteo-e jeojanghae duseyo.

Why is 서류 followed by -를?

Because -를 marks the direct object of a verb in Korean. Here, 서류 (“document(s)”) is what you’re saving, so it takes -를 (the object particle).

What role does -에 play in 컴퓨터에?

-에 indicates the location where an action happens. In this sentence, 컴퓨터에 means “on/in the computer,” specifying where the documents should be saved.

What does 저장해 두세요 consist of?

It’s a combination of:
• 저장하다 (“to save”) in its connective form 저장해
• the auxiliary verb 두다, which here means “to do something and leave it that way (for future use)”
• the polite imperative ending -세요 (“please do …”).

Why use 두다 in 저장해 두세요 instead of just saying 저장하세요?

Adding 두다 conveys that you should save the document now and keep it saved—“prepare it in advance.” 저장하세요 alone just means “please save,” without that nuance of leaving it in place for later.

How is 저장해 두세요 different from 저장해 주세요?

-주세요 is a request for a favor (“please save it for me”), focusing on the listener’s help. -두세요 emphasizes performing the action and leaving the result ready (preparation), not necessarily asking for a favor.

Could you use 파일 instead of 서류 here?

Yes. 파일 refers specifically to a digital file, while 서류 is a more general term for document or paperwork. If you’re talking strictly about a computer file, 파일을 컴퓨터에 저장해 두세요 works perfectly.

Why is there no subject in this sentence?

Korean often omits the subject when it’s clear from context. Here, it’s understood that the speaker is telling “you” (or someone in general) to save the document, so no subject word like 당신이 (“you”) is needed.
