Grammar Points
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Grammar Point #1 - From - -부터/에서
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
부터 (buteo) and -에서 (eseo) are words that mean "from", and both can be used for
indicating time, range and distance. They are often paired with 까지 (kkaji), which means
"until" or "up to". Although 부터 and 에서 are of the same meaning, 부터 is much more
4 commonly used than 에서. Also, 에서 doesn't sound very natural with some nouns, but there
is no set rule for this.

▷ Construction
Noun + 부터/에서

Ex)
- 오늘 (oneul) - today
- 오늘 + 부터 = 오늘부터 = from today

Ex)
- 여기 (yeogi) - here
- 여기 + 에서 = 여기에서 = from here

☞ remember ☜
Note that -에서 can also work as a location particle, expressing the place where an action
takes place.

Grammar Point #2 - To, Until, Up To - -까지

time to mean "until." It is often paired with -부터 or -에서.

지금 (jigeum) - now
지금 + 까지 = 지금까지 = until now
