What are Korean adverbs?


Korean Adverbs (부사) are used to describe a verb or an adjective further. There are
three ways in which adverbs are created and used in the Korean language, and at least
100 commonly used Korean adverbs.
1.2 How to make adverbs in Korean – the three basic rules of Korean
adverbs
Do note that there are also numerous adverbs, such as some adverbs related to frequency,
which do not need to follow any of these rules and simply stand on their own. In their
case, you, unfortunately, have no option but to memorize which adverbs follow the rules
and which do not.
Thankfully, there are quite clear steps regarding what kind of adverbs fit which rule
category. And to make memorizing a little easier, we’ve included the special adverbs that
aren’t conjugated by any rules as a separate chart for you to memorize from.

1) 히 (hi)

The conjugation 히 (hi) is used when you form adjectives into adverbs. This is usually
added to adjectives that end with -하다 (hada). To do that, you replace -하다 (hada) in
the dictionary form of the word with 히 (hi).

For example:

Nepali Verb Korean verb Nepali adverb Korean Adverb

हतारिनु 성급하다 हतार गरि 성급히

to be vague 막연하다 vaguely 막연히

In this example, both 성급하다 (seonggeupaha) and 막연하다 (magyeonhada) end with -
하다 (hada). However, in order to turn them from adjectives into adverbs, the 하다
(hada) gets removed and is replaced by the syllable 히 (hi).

Note that some 하다 (hada) adjectives can be used with 이(-i) instead of 히 (hi).For
example, if the stem ends in ㅅ, 이 is used for adverbs.

깨끗하다 (kkaekkeuthada) to be clean → 깨끗이 (kkaekkeusi) cleanly

2) ~게 (ge)
With ~게 (ge) conjugations, you can make an adverb in Korean out of an adjective. In
this case, you keep the entire word stem and simply replace 다 (ge) with 게 (ge).
For example:
Korean Adjective English Adjective English Adverb Korean Adverb
크다 big in a big manner 크게
건조하다 dry dryly 건조하게
나쁘다 bad badly 나쁘게

As you can see in the above examples, 다 (da) gets removed from the verb stem, and 게
(ge) gets added, and a Korean adverb is thus formed. Do note that in the case of some
adjectives with -하다 (hada) endings, the syllable 히 (hi)-rule is used. You,
unfortunately, simply have to learn to memorize these different adverbs in Korean that
“break” the rule.

3) ~으로 (euro)
Finally, the third way of forming Korean adverbs. Technically, ~으로 (euro) is a post-
position, not an adverb. But when used together with adjectives, you can create adverbs
from them. If you translate Korean to English, 으로 adverbs mean “in some way,” which
helps explain why they can be used in adverb form as well. It’s used with adjectives that
end in the suffix 적 (jeok).

For example:
English Adjective Korean Adjective English Adverb Korean Adverb
rational 이성적 rationally 이성적으로
economical 경제적 economically 경제적으로

With each adjective in the example above, the great thing is that you don’t have to
remove any part of it; you just simply add 으로 (euro)!
