N도

Title: Using "N도" to Express Inclusion or Addition

Grammar Explanation:

The particle "도" in Korean is analogous to the English words "also," "too," or "as well." It is used to add or list subjects, objects, or other elements in a sentence, indicating that the element it follows shares a characteristic or action with a previously mentioned element.

Key Points:

1. Subjects and Objects: When "도" is used with subjects or objects, it replaces the subject or object particles (은/는, 이/가, 을/를). For example, "나는" becomes "나도," and "사과를" changes to "사과도."

2. With Other Particles: In cases where "도" is used with other types of particles like location or direction particles, the original particle is retained along with "도". For example, "미국에" becomes "미국에도," not "미국도."

Example Sentences:

1. 나는 영화를 좋아해요. 그리고 드라마도 좋아해. (I like movies. And I like dramas too.)

2. 여기에 살아요. 그리고 서울에도 살아요. 왜냐하면 저는 부자라서 집이 많아요. (I live here. And I also live in Seoul. I have many houses because I am rich.)

3. 민지도 나를 좋아하고 소현이도 나를 좋아해. 그래서 너무 피곤해. (Minji likes me and Sohyeon likes me too. So I am very tired.)

Sample Dialogues:

• A: 오늘 뭐 할 거예요? (What are you going to do today?)

  B: 영화를 볼 거예요. 그리고 ‘눈물의 여왕’도 볼 거예요. (I'm going to watch a movie. And I will also watch ‘Quen Of Tears’)

• A: 이 과일을 좋아해? (Do you like this fruit?)

  B: 응, 좋아해. 그리고 너도 좋아해. (Yes, I like it. And I also like you.)
