MANNAM! 깜놀?!(ggam nol)
Second Lesson for Korean shorten word!
Today’s word is 깜놀! (ggam nol)
It means surprised!
깜놀 is a shortened form of ‘깜짝 놀라다’
*깜짝 : It’s an expression of being
shocked.
*놀라다 : Surprised
깜놀 is usually added with ‘하다’(do) to change to
a verb form.
Moreover, when we say '깜놀', it's usually used in the past tense form.
So word ‘하다’(Do) changes to ‘했다’(Did) as a past tense.
As a result, when you are suprised, say ‘깜놀했어!’(ggam nol hat uh)
Koreans use this word, they used to say ‘깜짝이야!’(ggam jjak e ya)
As the meaning above, it is an expression of being socked.
But as time goes by, words change and it’s time to say ‘깜놀했어!’ J
