Questions & Answers about jigeum eunhaeng aebe jeopsokhaeseo gyejwa janaegeul hwaginhaneun jungiya.
Why is 에 used in 은행 앱에 접속해서?
Because 접속하다 usually takes 에 to mark the place, service, or system you connect to.
- 은행 앱에 접속하다 = to access/connect to the banking app
- 웹사이트에 접속하다 = to access a website
- 인터넷에 접속하다 = to connect to the internet
So here, 은행 앱에 means to the banking app or more naturally in English, the banking app as the thing being accessed.
What does 접속해서 mean exactly?
접속해서 comes from 접속하다 = to connect/access/log in, plus -아서/어서, which links actions.
So:
- 접속해서 = connect/access/log in and then...
In this sentence, it connects two actions:
- access the banking app
- check the account balance
It can sound like simple sequence, but in real usage it often just links closely related actions smoothly, like by accessing the app or after logging in.
Why is it 확인하는 중이야 instead of 확인하고 있어?
