MANNAM! Do you know the difference between ‘다르다’ and ‘틀리다’??

MANNAM! Do you know the difference between ‘다르다’ and ‘틀리다’??

*다르다(da reu da) : different

*틀리다(teul ri da) : wrong

These two words contain totally different meaning but even Koreans make mistakes too.

다르다 is about differences. It has nothing to do with worng. When we speak about somethings we could have different opinions.

However, 틀리다 is not just talking about difference, but also meaning worng. It’s not an answer so you have to make it correct. Like a math problems.

Still not sure?

Then let’s see with examples.

I am Korean and you are from other country. We have different culture, language, religion and so on.

But that doesn’t mean neither you nor I am wrong. There is no answer for this, right?

우리는 다를 수 있어도 틀리지는 않아요. We could be different, but each of us are not wrong.

Whenever I hear about this mistake, it really bothers me.

A word can judge people by using wrong word even though they are not wrong.

So we should think once more before we say this word!

We are MANNAM! We are from everywhere. aren’t we?

It’s natual to have different culture, but NEVER say someone is 틀리다!

We sometimes feel like others are very 다르다 than us. They feel like this too!

Sometimes, 다르다 may be 틀리다, but least in MANNAM, we are all right!

From the difference, we could learn more and share new thingsJ
