Questions & Answers about hyudaeponeul jibe dugo wa beoryeosseoyo.

How do you break this sentence down?

A natural breakdown is:

• 휴대폰을 = cell phone
  • object marker -을
• 집에 = at/to home
• 두고 = leave/put
  • -고 (and)
• 와 = come
• 버렸어요 = past polite form of auxiliary 버리다

So the core pattern is 두고 오다, which literally means leave something somewhere and come.

The full sentence is built from 휴대폰을 집에 두고 오다 + -아/어 버리다 + past polite ending, giving the nuance of I ended up leaving my phone at home.

Why does 휴대폰 take -을?

Because 휴대폰 is the thing being left behind, so it is the object of the verb.

• 휴대폰을 두고 오다 = to leave the phone behind and come

The particle -을/를 marks the direct object. In casual conversation, Korean sometimes drops object particles, but in a clear textbook-style sentence, 휴대폰을 is the normal form.

Why is it 집에, not 집에서?
