Korean sentences are written in the following order:
Subject – Object – Verb (for example: I hamburger eat)
Or
Subject – Adjective (for example: I beautiful)
The subject refers to person/thing/noun/whatever that is acting. The subject does the action of the verb.
The object refers to whatever the verb is acting on.
Sometimes there is no object because it has simply been omitted from the sentence. For example, “I ate” or “I ate rice” are both correct sentences.
Subjects are also present in sentences with adjectives. However, there is no object in a sentence with an adjective.
Every Korean sentence has to end in either a verb (like eat, sleep or walk) or an adjective (like beautiful, pretty, and delicious).
I reference grammar is definitely useful because it is designed to teach someone about the language and to give readers a reference tool for looking up specific details of the language. It is written for individuals who have some understanding of language as a universal phenomenon and who wish to learn how the particular language described fits into universal understandings of human language
