  • What do you need to know about the structure of your target language?  How will you acquire the knowledge you need?  Do you think a reference grammar can be useful?  Why or why not?

Similar to English, Korean sentences consist subject and verb or subject, object, and verb. However, where they are placed in a sentence is different. In Korean the subject come right after the verb and if there is an object it comes in between the subject and verb. The verb is often at the end of the sentence. I will acquire this knowledge of the Korean language structure through both my Korean language partner and research and practice from listening. I think reference grammar will help because it is better to understand why the language is that way as oppose to just memorizing because often grammar can have exceptions.
