Questions & Answers about gaeksireseo waipaireul yeongyeolharyeomyeon bimilbeonhoreul ipryeokhaeya haeyo.
What does -(으)려면 mean in 연결하려면?
It sets up a condition: “if you want to/if you intend to do X, then Y.” Form:
- Verb stem + -려면 (after a vowel): 가려면, 연결하려면
- Verb stem + -으려면 (after a consonant): 먹으려면, 읽으려면 It’s natural and conversational. A more formal equivalent is -기 위해(서)는.
Why is it 와이파이를 연결하다 and not 와이파이에 연결하다?
Both appear in real usage:
- 와이파이에 연결하다 = “connect to Wi‑Fi” (Wi‑Fi as the destination/target; very common with networks: 인터넷에 연결하다).
- 와이파이를 연결하다 = “connect Wi‑Fi” (treating Wi‑Fi/connection as the object you establish; also heard in everyday speech). Neither is wrong. If you want to be textbook‑clear about “connect to,” use -에: 와이파이에 연결하다.
Why 객실에서 and not 객실에?
- -에서 marks the place where an action happens (do something in/at a place).
- -에 marks a static location or destination (be at, go to). Since the action (connecting) happens in the room, 객실에서 is correct.
