Questions & Answers about baedalbiga bissaseo geunyang pojanghae gallae.

What does the ending in 비싸서 do?

• -아/어서 attaches to a verb/adjective stem to give a reason or cause: 비싸서 = because it’s expensive.
• The clause before -서 typically doesn’t take tense markers like -었/았; tense is expressed in the following clause or by context.
• It’s natural for neutral, factual reasons. When you explicitly justify a request/command/suggestion, -(으)니까 is often preferred, but in everyday speech -아/어서 also appears frequently.

Why is it 배달비가 and not 배달비는?

• -가 marks the subject that is directly responsible for the reason: “the delivery fee is (the thing that’s) expensive.”
• -는 would topicalize/contrast: 배달비는 비싸서… = “as for the delivery fee, it’s expensive (implying contrast with something else, like dine-in).”
• Both are grammatically fine; -가 is the default, unmarked choice for presenting the reason.

What nuance does 그냥 add? Can I drop it?

• 그냥 means “just/simply/rather,” making the choice sound low-effort or default.
• It softens the tone: “let’s just do takeout (instead of paying delivery).”
• You can drop it for a firmer tone: 배달비가 비싸서 포장해 갈래.
