Grammar in this lesson
- A/V-(으)ㄹ뿐더러 — not only … but also — adding a second, stronger point in the same direction (close to -(으)ㄹ 뿐만 아니라 · -거니와 from Lesson 4B-8)
- V-자기에 — since someone suggested 'let's …' — explaining what you did because of a suggestion (-자고 하기에, shortened)
- A/V-더라고(요) — I saw that … · it turned out … — passing on what you found out yourself, now in a story told in order, quoting what people said (그러더라고요) and with -았/었더라고요 · Lesson 4B-3, deeper
- A/V-데(요) — I noticed … · it was …, I found — passing on something you experienced yourself, shorter and softer than -더라고요 (and not -대요, which is hearsay)
