기본 문장 구조 — Basic Sentence Structure

Korean uses SOV (Subject-Object-Verb) word order — the verb always comes last. This is the most fundamental difference from English (SVO).

LanguageOrderExample
EnglishSVOI eat rice.
KoreanSOV저는 밥을 먹어요. (I + rice + eat)

Key rules:

  • The verb is always last — this is the one non-negotiable rule
  • Other elements (subject, object, time, place) can be rearranged relatively freely
  • Subjects and objects are often dropped when clear from context: 밥 먹어요 = "(I) eat rice"
  • Particles (조사) attach to nouns to show their grammatical role, so word order is flexible

Basic patterns:

PatternKoreanMeaning
S + V저는 가요.I go.
S + O + V저는 물을 마셔요.I drink water.
S + Location + V저는 학교에 가요.I go to school.
S + Time + Location + V저는 아침에 학교에 가요.I go to school in the morning.

Tip: Think of Korean sentences as building blocks that stack before the verb. The verb is like a period — it ends everything.

Learners place the verb in the middle of the sentence (SVO habit) or forget that the verb must be last. 🇬🇧 English speakers: The SVO→SOV switch is the #1 challenge. English speakers say *저는 먹어요 밥을 instead of 저는 밥을 먹어요. Practice: always put the verb last. 🇩🇪 German speakers: German has V2 rule and verb-final in subordinate clauses (weil ich Reis esse), so the concept of verb-final is somewhat familiar. Still, the consistent SOV is new.

Häufige Fehlermuster

Placed verb before the object (SVO instead of SOV)

Korean verb is ALWAYS last. Practice: Subject + (other info) + Verb

Included subject when context makes it obvious

Korean drops subjects freely when clear from context — it's natural, not lazy

저는 학생이에요.

Ich bin Student.

Grundmuster S+V: 저 (ich) + 는 (Thema) + 학생 (Student) + 이에요 (bin). Die Kopula 이에요 steht am Ende.

저는 커피를 마셔요.

Ich trinke Kaffee.

SOV-Reihenfolge: 저 (ich) + 는 (Thema) + 커피 (Kaffee) + 를 (Objekt) + 마셔요 (trinke). Verb 마셔요 steht am Ende.

아침에 학교에 가요.

Ich gehe morgens zur Schule.

Subjekt 저는 wird weggelassen (aus dem Kontext klar). Zeit (아침에) und Ort (학교에) stehen vor dem Verb (가요).

뭐 해요?

Was machst du?

Minimalsatz: 뭐 (was) + 해요 (machst). Subjekt 'du' wird weggelassen. Auch in Fragen steht das Verb am Ende.
