맺은

In a sentence

• 그들은 서로 맺은 약속을 소중히 여겼다.

  They valued the promise they made to each other.

  In this sentence, '맺은' modifies '약속,' indicating a promise that was made. '맺은' derives from the verb '맺다,' meaning 'to form' or 'to establish,' and here it describes the agreement or connection formed as a result of the action.

• 나무는 열매를 맺은 후 더 많은 가지를 뻗었다.

  The tree spread more branches after bearing fruit.

  Here, '맺은' relates to '열매,' indicating fruit that the tree has produced or formed. Again, '맺은' comes from '맺다,' signifying the conclusion or result of the tree's biological process in producing fruit.

• 그 시는 작가가 맺은 깊은 감정을 표현했다.

  The poem expressed the deep emotions the writer had formed.

  '맺은' here modifies '감정을,' referring to emotions that have been established or deeply felt by the author. '맺다' in this case reflects the formation or rooting of abstract entities like emotions or feelings in context.
