Today I’ll teach you how to say ‘from ___ to ____’. All you have to do is learn the particles that mean ‘from’ and ‘to’ in Korean, and insert whatever location or place in the blanks.
As an example, let’s pick two locations: Seoul and Jejudo. Let’s first learn how to say, ‘from Seoul’. In Korean this is, Seoul ehso (서울에서). Therefore the particle for ‘from’ is ehso (에서).
Then let’s learn how to say ‘to Jejudo’. Before I begin, I just want to tell you that if you translate this literally in English, it’s more like ‘until Jejudo’. So the particle we want to focus on is kkaji (까지). To/until Jejudo = Jejudo kkaji (제주도까지).
Altogether the sentence, ‘from Seoul to/until Jejudo’ is Seoul ehso Jejudo kkaji (서울에서 제주도까지).
I’ll provide another example. How do you say, ‘from Busan to/until Ulsan’? This would be: Busan ehso Ulsan kkaji (부산에서 울산까지).
Let’s make a full sentence from these two examples. How would you say, ‘I drive from Busan to Ulsan’? Before I tell you the answer, let’s figure out what we need here. We’ll need the verb ‘to drive’ which is unjunhada (운전하다). Let’s assume this is in the deferential polite. So, it’ll be conjugated as unjunhamnida (운전합니다). If you’re still confused about forming the deferential polite, take a look at the last couple of posts before this post.
Altogether the sentence ‘I drive from Busan to Ulsan’ is busan ehso ulsan kkaji unjunhamnida (부신에서 울산까지 운전합니다).
