ㄱ과

This is the 8473rd most frequent Korean word.


ㄱ과

The Korean word "ㄱ과" can mean "ㄱ and" or indicate the subject marker "ㄱ" with "과" (used in formal contexts or written text), but its exact meaning depends on context.


In this sentence, "와" (the variant of "과" used when the preceding noun ends in a vowel) indicates accompaniment, meaning "together with someone."

나는 어제 친구와 공원을 거닐었다.

Yesterday, I strolled in the park with a friend.


Here, "와" connects the nouns "사과" (apple) and "배" (pear), indicating an additive or inclusive relationship, equivalent to "and."

사과와 배를 좋아합니다.

I like apples and pears.


In this case, "와" links "노래" (song) and "춤" (dance) to describe multiple activities being enjoyed together.

우리는 노래와 춤을 즐겼다.

We enjoyed songs and dances.
