-는데요 softens statements and often invites a response: 지금 좀 바쁜데요…
It can signal contrast, hesitation, or “actually…” depending on intonation.
Extremely common in service Korean and everyday polite speech.
Do not overuse in formal writing where -지만 or full clauses may fit better.
Level: elementary. Read the pattern, say each example out loud, then write two new sentences of your own before moving on.
After you can produce the form, open related Chamelingo pages (vocabulary, conjugator, particles) so the pattern connects to words you actually study.
예문
저기요, 질문이 있는데요.
Excuse me, I have a question…
오늘은 시간이 없는데요.
I don’t really have time today…
흔한 실수
- Do not translate English word-for-word into “-는데요”: match Korean order and speech level.
- Do not treat near-miss patterns as free synonyms of “-는데요” without checking meaning and register.
연습 방법
- Register: learn the polite 요 form first unless this page is specifically about formal 습니다 style.
- Production tip: use the pattern in a short dialogue (question + answer) the same day you study it.
