Part 2: Choose the Right Pair

Korean particles change depending on whether the previous word ends in a consonant or vowel.

Question 1

저 + topic marker

저 ends in a vowel sound.

Question 2

책 + object marker

책 ends in a consonant.

Question 3

커피 + object marker

커피 ends in a vowel sound.

Question 4

사람 + subject marker

사람 ends in a consonant.

Question 5

학교 + subject marker

학교 ends in a vowel sound.

Answer Key and Explanations

1. 저는 학생이에요.

저 ends in a vowel, so the topic marker is 는.

2. 책을 읽어요.

책 ends in a consonant, so the object marker is 을.

3. 학교에 가요.

에 marks the destination: go to school.

4. 도서관에서 공부해요.

에서 marks where the action 공부해요 happens.

5. 친구하고 영화 봐요.

하고 means with/and in many beginner sentences.

6. 저 + 는 = 저는

Use 는 after vowel endings.

7. 책 + 을 = 책을

Use 을 after consonant endings.

8. 커피 + 를 = 커피를

Use 를 after vowel endings.

9. 사람 + 이 = 사람이

Use 이 after consonant endings.

10. 학교 + 가 = 학교가

Use 가 after vowel endings.

How to Use This Practice

  1. Answer once without notes, even if you are unsure.
  2. Check the explanation, not only the answer.
  3. Rewrite every missed item by hand or type it twice.
  4. Repeat the same set tomorrow before learning new material.

Common Mistakes

Mixing 에 and 에서

Use 에 for destination or existence. Use 에서 for where an action happens.

Ignoring batchim

The final consonant decides 은/는, 이/가, and 을/를. Always check the last sound.

Translating word-for-word

Particles rarely translate cleanly. Learn the Korean pattern as a whole.

Particles are Korean sentence glue

Once particles click, Korean sentence structure becomes much easier to read and build.
