GRAMMAR
The
Focus
of
This
Lesson
Is
-ㄹ(을)까.

액션
영화
볼까?



"Should
we
watch
an
action
movie?"



We
use
the
volitional
form
to
express
intention
on
the
part
of
the
speaker
or
to
invite
someone
to
do
something
in
informal
situations.
Specifically,
the
speaker
uses
this
form
when
asking
someone
whether
he
or
she
would
like
to
do
something
with
the
speaker
or
with
a
group
that
includes
the
speaker.
In
English,
we
can
translate
this
as
"shall
we...?"
or
"should
we...?"
In
addition
to
inviting
someone
to
do
something,
we
also
use
it
to
ask
for
one's
opinion,
view,
or
appraisal
about
a
certain
fact.
This
form
is
a
sentence
ender.

I.
We
use
-ㄹ까요?
(-lkkayo?)
with
verbs
that
end
in
vowels.

II.
We

(-eulkkayo?)
with
verbs
that
end
in
consonants.

(standard

재미있을까?
(jaemiisseulkka?)
"Will
it
be
fun?"/"What
do
you
think?"
(intimate
politeness
level)

볼까?


In
this
lesson,
we
use
-ㄹ(을)까
(l/eulkka)
in
the
form
of
볼까?
(bolkka?).
This
uses
the
above
grammar
formation
with
the
verb
보다
(boda),
meaning
"to
see"
or
"to
watch."
Combined
with
that
construction,
we
translate
the
phrase
볼까
(bolkka)
as
"should
we
see?"
or
"shall
we
see?"
