Let's learn the difference between V+(으)러, (으)려고 and (으)려고 하다 [Korean Grammar] and make some example sentences.
Difference between V+(으)러, (으)려고 and (으)려고 하다 [Korean Grammar]
USE:
V+(으)러 가다 오다 and v-(으)려고 grammar patterns are connectors which come in the middle of the sentence. while v-(으)려고 하다 is a verb ending which will come at the end of the sentence.
1. V+(으)러 가다/ 오다 Korean grammar pattern is used to express the intention or purpose of going and coming somewhere.
It equals to "in order to do something " in English and 가다, 오다 or 다니다 always comes after the verb in the sentence.
2. V-(으)려고 Korean grammar pattern is used to express the intention or the purpose of the speaker to do something.
It equals to " in order to" in English.
3. V+ (으)려고 하다 Korean grammar pattern is used to tell the plan or intention to do an action.
It equals to "Plan to or intend to" in English.
CONJUGATION RULE:
These grammar patterns are used with verbs. The first step of the conjugation is to remove ‘다’ from the base form of the verb.
- If the verb stem is ending with a final consonant (받침), we use v+(으)러 가다/ 오다, (으)려고 or (으)려고 하다.
- If the verb stem is ending with any vowel( without patchim) then ‘v+러 가다/ 오다, 려고 or 려고 하다’ is used.
So let's take a verb 먹다(to eat). if you remove 다 from 먹다, 먹 (stem) is left. And then, look at the stem. So in the 먹, is ending with final consonant i.e. Patchim.
According to the conjugation rule, if the stem is end with Patchim, we add (으)러 가다/ 오다, (으)려고 or (으)려고 하다.
so it becomes 먹으러 가다/ 오다, 먹으려고 or 먹으려고 하다.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN V-(으)러, V-(으)려고 & V-(으)려고 하다 GRAMMARS:
