Questions & Answers about ibeon silpaedo jungyohan gyeongheomieyo.

What does 이번 mean exactly?

이번 means this time, this instance, or this round.

It comes from:

• 이 = this
• 번 = number, turn, occasion

So 이번 실패 literally means this time’s failure or this failure.

It is different from 이 실패, which would sound more like this failure in a direct pointing sense. 이번 실패 emphasizes that this is the failure from the current attempt or occasion.

Why is 도 attached to 실패?

도 means also, too, or sometimes even.

So 실패도 means:

• the failure too
• this failure also
• possibly even this failure

In this sentence, 도 suggests that this failure, just like something else already being discussed, can also be seen as an important experience.

So the nuance is not just This failure is an important experience, but more like:

• This failure too is an important experience.

Why is it 실패도, not 실패는?

Because replaces particles like or in many cases.
