In Korean the Verb always comes where in the sentence structure?
- A.
At the beginning
- B.
At the end
- C.
In the middle before the noun and after the object
Correct Answer
B. At the endExplanation
In Korean, the verb always comes at the end of the sentence structure. This is because Korean is a subject-object-verb (SOV) language, meaning that the subject is typically placed at the beginning of the sentence, followed by the object, and finally the verb. This word order is different from English, which is a subject-verb-object (SVO) language. Placing the verb at the end of the sentence in Korean allows for more flexibility in sentence structure and allows for additional information to be added before the verb.Rate this question:
