Questions & Answers about deungrok jeone gwamogeul dasi hwaginhaeyo.

Why is it 등록 전에 and not 등록하다 전에?

전에 attaches to a noun phrase, not directly to the dictionary form of a verb.

• 등록 = registration / enrolling
• 전에 = before

So 등록 전에 literally means before registration or before enrolling.

If you want to use the full verb 등록하다 before 전에, you normally change it to a modifier form:

• 등록하기 전에 = before registering
• 등록하기 전에 과목을 다시 확인해요.

In everyday Korean, the noun form is very common and natural, so 등록 전에 sounds concise and normal.

What exactly does 전에 mean here?

전에 means before.

In this sentence, it marks the time before registration:

• 등록 전에 = before registration / before enrolling

A useful comparison:

• 전에 = before
• 후에 = after

Examples:

• 수업 전에 = before class
• 식사 전에 = before eating / before the meal
• 등록 후에 = after registration

So the first part of the sentence sets the time context for the action that follows.

Why does 과목 have the particle 을?
