Existence Verbs (Part 2)

The English is put underneath these examples so you can see the word order explicitly.

seo@ur@e hakkyo @issseupnida
in Seoula schoolis

Note that there is no need for a subject marker on an “exists” sentence. When we use the “doesn’t exist” verb, though, we must put in a subject marker. Thus, to say, “There is no kimch’i (kimch'i ),” we say this:

kim-ch'i-ga @eopsseupnida
kimch’iis not
