You’ll need these sentences when you want to say things like:
Mr. Kim buys a pencil.
The friend sees the plate.
You’ll need both the subject and object markers, and both “flavors,” depending upon whether the subject and object end with a consonant or a vowel. Here’s a recap of that portion of the table:
| Function | After words ending in a consonant |
After words ending in a vowel |
|---|---|---|
| Subject | -이 | -가 |
| Object | -을 | -를 |
