Questions & Answers about yoksil muni an dathyeoseo naeil dasi surihareo ondae.

Why is it 문이 and not 문을?

Because the sentence is using 닫히다 (to close / to become closed) rather than 닫다 (to close something).

• 문이 안 닫혀서 = because the door won’t close / isn’t closing
• 문을 안 닫아서 = because someone didn’t close the door

So 문이 is the subject of 닫히다. The focus is on the door’s condition, not on a person failing to close it.

What exactly is 안 닫혀서?

안 닫혀서 comes from:

• 닫히다 = to close, to be closed
• 닫혀서 = because it closes / because it is closed / because it won’t close, depending on context
• 안 닫혀서 = because it doesn’t close / because it won’t close

Here, the natural meaning is because it won’t close.

Also, the form changes like this:

• 닫히다
• 닫히 + 어서
• 닫혀서

That 히 + 어 → 혀 contraction is very common.

Why use 안 here? Could it be 못 instead?
