Questions & Answers about ajik yeyageul mos haesseoyo.
What does 아직 mean here, and where does it usually go in the sentence?
아직 means yet / still (not) in this context. It commonly appears near the beginning of the sentence, before the part you want to mark as “not done yet,” so 아직 예약을 못 했어요 sounds very natural. You can also place it right before the verb phrase for emphasis: 예약을 아직 못 했어요 (still haven’t made the reservation).
Does 아직 imply “not yet” automatically, or do I need a negative form too?
You still need a negative form. 아직 sets up the idea of “up to now,” but the not-yet meaning comes from combining it with a negative like 못 했어요 / 안 했어요. So 아직 예약을 했어요 would be odd unless it’s in a special contrast context; normally 아직 + negative is the pattern.
What is 예약 exactly—noun or verb—and how is it used?
예약 is primarily a noun meaning reservation/booking. Korean often pairs a noun like this with 하다 to make a verb:
- 예약하다 = to make a reservation So 예약을 했어요 literally means (I) did a reservation → (I) made a reservation.
Why is there an 을 after 예약?
is the , marking as the thing being done (or not done).
