오늘날 회화시 강세의 위치는 어떤 공식에 의해 결정되기 보다는 화자가 어디에 초점을 두느냐에 따라 달라집니다. 다음 두 문장이 그 좋은 예들 입니다.
How are you?
강세가 올 수 있는 곳은 아래와 같습니다.
1) you
2) are
3) how와 you
How are you doing?

Dear YESusa,
Among the responses in your last e-mail, I have some
additional questions.
"Hello, this is Kyunghee. I called to do some free talking."
A: The act of calling is in the past, since one must call first before one
can be talking on the phone. Thus the simple past tense is proper.
Above is what you said in your last email.
If I follow your logic, I think I can never use the present perfect tense
whatsoever because at the moment we say something it becomes the
past. In your logic, I cannot use "I've finished the work" if it is not at the very
moment I finished the work. I must be doing something else whatever it
is after I finished the work. So, it's impossible to use the present
perfect tense. What do you think? I need your help.
And I need your help in a similar situation.
"Have you brought an unbrella?" and "Did you bring an unbrella?"
How would you differentiate the two? I need your help.
Your reply would be appreciated.

The present perfect tense is what can be called a comparative tense, that is, it is used to differentiate between two or more actions that take place at different points in time. In general, the present perfect is also used to discuss actions that took place in the past but are somehow linked to the present. Certain actions in English rarely allow for that. The action "call" to mean "telephone" is one of them. The simple past tense is preferred. The logic of the language holds that one calls, the action is over, and that is that. The action "marry" is similar. It makes no sense in English to say "He has married her." One simply says, "He married her."
"Have you brought an umbrella?" and "Did you bring an umbrella?" are both proper. The difference is very slight and has to do with etiquette. The first sentence is generally considered to be more polite and formal than the second.

안녕하세요. YESusa님.
이렇게 유익한 사이트를 알게 되어 무척 기쁩니다.
제가 여쭈고자 하는 내용은 "이 서식을 작성해 주십시오"라는 우리말에 대한 영어 표현인데요. 방송 매체를 통해 흔히 "Fill out this form, please."라고 들었습니다. 그런데 "Fill in this form, please."는 어떤지요. 사전을 보니까 두 가지 모두 나와있더군요. 제가 보기에는 'in'과 'out'은 서로 상반되고 '빈곳을 채우시오'라고 할때는 오히려 "fill in"이 더 적절하게 생각되거든요. 어느 표현이 옳은 것인지, 모두 쓰인다면 의미상의 차이는 있는지, 각기 다른 상황에서 쓰이는지 알고 싶습니다. 구체적으로 예를 들어서 설명해 주시면 감사하겠습니다.
fidebona님께

"Fill in the form." is not used. The proper expression is "Fill out the form." However, if one is talking about just a portion of a form, then both "fill in" and "fill out" can be used.
For example:
Fill out/in this section.
You don't need to fill out the entire form. You can just fill out/in these lines.

질문 1
1. Below is your correction sent to 박주님.
"I also had good relations with leaders in the organization as well as both senior and junior members."
2. Below is to 이천표님.
"~ he doesn't need to worry about getting a job or about the next few years"
In the first sentence, you omitted the preposition, "with" right before "both." I'd like to know about the possibility that the sentence could then be interpreted as "I had both senior and junior members," not "I had good relations with both senior and junior members." I know it is awkward to interpret it in the former way in terms of the context. But it still leaves the possibility to think that way, I expect.
By the same token, if you can skip the preposition in the first sentence , I suppose, you can also skip the preposition "about" in the second sentence like "~ he doesn't need to worry about getting a job or the next few years." What do you think? In the sentence "I love people in America as well as in Korea", however, I think it'll be awkward if we omit the latter preposition "in." Would you explain the reason why we can or cannot omit those prepositions?
Especially when it comes to the sentence which could be interpreted in either way, I suppose, I have to take extra care in omitting the prepositions even though the above mentioned sentences are not ambiguous. I need your help; I've always been haunted by curiosity like this.
답변
The first sentence cannot be interpreted as you suggest, because it is not plausible for the subject "I" to have members.
The preposition "about" should not be omitted in the second sentence because the two phrases that follow are not similar in structure, one is an -ing phrase and the other is a noun (time) phrase.
In the sentence, "I love people ..." it simply sounds better to use "in" in both places. This is a matter of style, not grammar.
질문 2
In your correction to 이천표님, you said "I had to feed him, change his clothes, and other things too." I think it's more proper to put "do" before "other things too" not to let
"other things too" stand alone. I need your help.
답변
Both are correct, but letting "other things too" stand alone is generally preferred because it is a more inclusive expression.
질문 3
This is your correction to someone. "Hello, this is Kyunghee. I called to do some free talking." In my opinion, if Kyunghee is still on the phone, I think it's more appropriate that Kyunhee use the present perfect tense, not the past tense. What do you think about putting "have" before "called."
답변
The act of calling is in the past, since one must call first before one can be talking on the phone. Thus the simple past tense is proper.
질문 4
If I say " This is not a Japanese company, but a Korean company." Can I omit the indefinite article "a" before "Korean company"? And what about replacing the last "company" with "one." If I can't, please explain when I can use "one" in replacement of the latter noun of the repetitive nouns with some of your examples.
답변
The article "a" must be included. This is a point of grammar, not style. However, it is possible to use "a Korean one" in place of "a Korean company." This is a matter of preference.
질문 5
Finally, I tend to pay too much attention to every usage of the words and sentences. I would appreciate it if you would give me a brief comment on my writing style and expressions for my better English.

Your writing shows promise, but needs guidance. YESusa cannot provide such guidance, however, for that is limited to YESusa members. It would not be fair to YESusa members to provide such services to non-members.

안녕하십니까?
저는 수능 시험에서 해방된 고3학생입니다.
고3시절 영어 공부를 하는 중에 '누워서 떡 먹기'라는 속담을 영어로 바꿔 놓은 것을 본 적이 있습니다.
'It's a piece of cake' 많은 사람들이 이 속담을 알고 있더군요.
제가 아는 한 외국어 학원 외국인 선생님께서도 이 것을 알고 계시더군요. 그런데 제가 봤던 한 영어 문제집에 'It's a apple pie'와 'It's a falling log'가 같은 뜻을 가지고 있다고 되어 있었습니다.
만약 제 기억이 맞다면 badger_69@hotmail.com 으로 Barry Henderson이라는 사람에게 E-mail을 보내 주십시오. 제 기억이 잘못 되었다면 저에게 좀 자세히 가르쳐 주십시오. 부탁 드립니다.
Dear Chiysh,
There are three English expressions currently in use that can be translated as '누워서 떡 먹기':
It's a piece of cake.
It's easy as pie.
It's easy as apple pie.
The expression "It's a falling log" is no longer in use.

교정본 보내드립니다.
Q 1. 표제 건과 관련한 귀하의 12월 10일 E-mail 은 잘 받았습니다.
We have received your kind E-mail for the captioned matter dated December 10.
수정: Thank you for your December 10 email regarding the caption.
-------------------------------------------------------
I'd like to know whether the expression "we have received ~" is rarely used and awkward, sometimes with "well" at the end of it. What about the "kind" before "E-mail"? Is it not good to use "dated December 10" only in the above sentence or generally? What would, if any, be the difference?
Best Regards.
"SINCERE ENGLISH LEARNER"
Dear Jung Si Uk,
The expression "Thank you for ..." is usually preferable to "We have received ..." since the first expression takes care of both acknowledging receipt and giving thanks.
Describing a business email as "kind" is usually awkward. This adjective is better used to describe such things as assistance, consideration and the like.
The expression "dated December 10" can be used. Sometimes, however, using an expression such as "December 10 email" is preferable for its brevity. There is little difference in meaning, so which expression one uses depends on preference, style and the rhythm of the resulting sentence.
Sincerely,
YESusa
Burma's Voice of Hope
Aung San Suu Kyi's fight for democracy in Burma won her the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize. It has earned her a reputation as a steadfast believer in non-violence and nicknames like "Burma's Gandhi" and "Burma's Joan of Arc." It has also brought her and her followers great suffering, for Burma's military junta has been unrelentless in its suppression of the democracy movement. She was detained under house arrest from 1989 to 1995, and she still lives under constant surveillance. Three of her top aides, all cousins of hers, were recently arrested and tortured.
Despite her renown, Suu Kyi is an enigma. Few know much about her. Author Alan Clements spent five months interviewing her at her home in Rangoon, Burma's capital. As soon as he left the country, the military government permanently banned him from ever visiting Burma again. He recently published a chronicle of their conversations, titled The Voice of Hope. It is a rare glimpse of a strong, steadfast woman committed to democracy and non-violence. Suu Kyi discusses her life, her philosophy, and her hopes for the future. When Clements asked whether members of the military government would face criminal charges if her struggle for democracy is successful, Suu Kyi replied:
"I will never make any personal guarantees. It is only for our party, the National League of Democracy, a group that represents the people, to speak. But I do believe that truth and reconciliation go together. Once the truth has been admitted, forgiveness is far more possible. Denying the truth will not bring about forgiveness, neither will it dissipate the anger in those who have suffered."
Responding to criticism that non-violence is passive and ineffectual, she said:
"I do not believe in an armed struggle because it will perpetuate the tradition that he who is best at wielding arms, wields power. That will not help democracy. Non-violence means positive action. You have to work for whatever you want. You don't just sit there doing nothing and hope to get what you want. It just means that the methods you use are not violent ones."

Dear Jaungsy,
"during" is used to indicate a time period when something happened, but the exact length of that time period is unspecified.
For example:
We worked during our lunch break because we had to meet a deadline.
We took many long walks during the summer.
"for" is used to indicate a length of time.
For example:
We worked for five years to build this robot.
He tried for nearly a year to make the sale.

Dear YESusa,
Thank you for your answer.
The main reason why I wrote my previous e-mail in English was for begging you to proofread it, if it didn't bother you.
I've actually had an awful lot of questions to ask as far as English is concerned. I'm always ready to learn, and believe you could be of great help. The following question is one of them.
Would you explain the differences of "shimmer" and "glimmer", "flicker" and "blink", and "glow" and "shine" with some of the examples?
Your proofread regarding my last e-mail & today's e-mail would very much be appreciated.
With sincere thanks.
Jung Si Uk
P.S.) I am always worried whether my e-mail would be another
burden to your daily work.
Dear Jung Si Uk,
YESusa regrets that it cannot proofread or edit your email, for that falls under services performed for members only. YESusa has a membership program for questions related to editing of written English or to translation. Other questions, such as questions of grammar, word usage, or word origin, are open to the public at large.
Your writing is quite good, but the expressions are sometimes awkward. Your writing ability would improve rapidly with a little guidance.
Regarding your vocabulary questions:
- "shimmer" refers to the sparkling of light and thus indicates light that moves rapidly in a shivering kind of motion.
For example: The moon shimmered in its reflection on the ocean waves.
- "glimmer" refers to a tiny piece or slice of light. Metaphorically, it is often used to indicate something that is just barely seen.
For example: The lake was just a glimmer in the distance.
- "flicker" refers to the movement of a flame or a light.
For example: "The candle flickered in the wind.
- "blink" refers to an on-and-off motion of light.
For example: There must have been a momentary loss of power, for the lights blinked.
- "glow" and "shine" refer to steady, smooth light. "glow" also has the connotation of beauty.
For example: The lights shone steadily all night.
The moon glowed like a jewel in the midnight sky.
Each of the words above can be used as both verbs and nouns.
Sincerely,
YESusa

Dear Kim Inkyeom,
Thank you for your question. The answer follows below.
remember to + verb:
This is used for tasks or actions that are to be performed in the future, or when confirming whether such an action was performed.
For example:
Did you remember to close the windows?
I must remember to call my company today.
Will you remember to order the books tomorrow?
remember + -ing:
This is used when the -ing action is something in the past.
For example:

다음은 영문으로 보내온 질문 원본입니다.
Dear YESusa.
I happened to click this site about a week ago, and knew it was very good for study. Moreover, I felt that the people working in YESusa were enormously kind, and was thrilled with the way you answer to every one of the questions with all your heart.
Below is what I excerpted from your answer to JUY.
-----------------------------------------------------------
That day, I was scheduled to introduce each program before it begins. During the first part, I did well. But during the second part, I was totally confused. Before the student recital was finished (exactly two performances were left), I told the audience that "the next program is the congratulatory concert." As soon as I said that, I realized that I had made a mistake. So I confessed to them that "I am novice, please be understandable." Everyone in the audience laughed. It was so embarrassing.
-------------------------------------------------------------
My question is about tense. In your first sentence, you wrote, "before it begins." When the proceeding tense is past, could it be possible to use present tense in the same sentence? If so, would you explain the reason why?
In addition, I'd also like to have your correction of my original writing especially in terms of tense. In the second sentence of mine, I said, "I felt that the people working in YESusa were~~" If and when I feel that way till now, can I substitute "are" for "were"?
And what would be the difference?
In the same sentence, I wrote, "the way you answer", not "the way you answered." I think it's possible if I want to express generally.
Your reply would be appreciated.
Best Regards
From "SINCERE ENGLISH LEARNER"
Dear Jung Si Uk,
Q 1. That day, I was scheduled to introduce each program before it begins.
A 1. "begins" is used in the present tense because this action comes after the action of "was scheduled" and also after the action of "introduce." However, it is also possible to use the past tense "began" in order to match the tense of "was scheduled. Which tense is used is a judgment call, and results in a slightly different feel to the writing.
Q 2. In the second sentence of mine, I said, "I felt that the people working in YESusa were~~" If and when I feel that way till now, can I substitute "are" for "were"? And what would be the difference?
A 2. In this case, the verb tense of "felt" and "were" should be matched. If you want to emphasize that you still feel this way, then the sentence should read:
I feel that the people working at YESusa are ....
Q 3. In the same sentence, I wrote, "the way you answer", not "the way you answered."
A 3. "the way you answer" is correct, but you can also use "the way you answered." Using the present tense makes it a general, habitual action, while using the past tense limits it to those actions in the past.
Also, the preposition "to" does not follow the verb "answer." Thus your sentence should read "the way you answer every question."
Please feel free to contact YESusa with any question you may have regarding English. YESusa has a membership program for questions related to editing of written English or to translation. Other questions, such as questions of grammar, word usage, or word origin, are open to the public at large.

다음은 성경 마태복음의 일부 내용에 대한 질문입니다.
Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to John, John would have prevented him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" But Jesus answered him, "Let it be so now: for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then he consented. And when Jesus was baptized, he went up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and alighting on him; and lo, a voice from heaven, saying, "This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased."
질문 3: "to the Jordan to John"을 "요르단 강으로 요한을 찾아오셨다"라고 해석하고 있습니다. 전치사 to가 이상하다고 느껴지는데 그 이유를 알려주시고 현대문이라면 어떻게 바꾸어야 할까요?
답변: "came from Galilee to the Jordan to John" = "came from Galilee to the Jordan and to John"
The above phrase indicates that going to Jordan and going to John were simultaneous actions. The expression is somewhat old-fashioned and poetic, so it is rarely used in conversation, although it can still sometimes be found in writing. There is no need to change it.
A more contemporary expression would be: "to the Jordan to meet John" or "to the Jordan to find John." However, note that the meanings are slightly different. In the contemporary expressions, one action is done in order to do the second. In the expression found in your English translation of the Bible, the two actions are simply simultaneous.
Also note that the expression "from A to B to C" can indicate a sequence of destinations rather than two simultaneous actions, such that one went first to A, then to B and then to C. Which meaning is intended can be inferred from the context.
질문 4: "Son, with whom I am well pleased."에서 왜 ","를 Son 다음에 사용하는지 모르겠습니다.
답변: The comma is not grammatically necessary, although it can be used to indicate a break between the main sentence and the clause. Most specialists in English grammar, however, prefer to use the comma here. In this sentence, it is also used to indicate that the speaker paused briefly at that point.

Dear Kim Hyung-Min,
Both American department stores and some large national stores have gift certificates. Even fast food chains such as McDonald's and Burger King sometimes offer gift certificates, usually during the holiday season in December.
The term "consumer confidence" is used to mean that consumers feel confident enough to spend money and buy things. What they feel confident about is left unspecified, but it can be assumed that "consumer confidence" refers to consumers' confidence in the strength of the economy and in their own personal economic situation.

Q 1. 미국의 대학들이 제공하는 홈페이지를 보면 공학으로 분류되는 것 중에서도 Electrical Engineering이나 Mechanical Engineering처럼 쓰이는 것도 있고 Image Printing Technology처럼 technology로 끝나는 경우도 있습니다. 그러면 기계설계과를 Department of Mechanical Technology나 Department of Mechanical Design으로 할 때 어떤 차이가 있는지요.
A 1. Technology indicates that it is it related to technical science, while design indicates that it is closer to technical design. For example, automobile technology would be about how cars run and would concern such things as engines, axles, wheels, suspension, etc., while automobile design would be about the shape of the car and would concern such things as aerodynamics, shape of the fenders and doors, etc.

작문을 하는데 있어서는 이제 선생님께서 도움을 많이 주셔서 많은 두려움은 사라졌습니다. 그런데 정말로 영어에서는 작문, 듣기, 말하기, 독해 이 모든 것을 같이 끌어 가기가 힘이 드는 것 같습니다. 듣기는 A.F.K.N을 계속 들어 주고 있고는 있습니다. 매일 30분씩은 항상 들어 주곤 합니다. 벌써 일년이 되어가는데요, 많은 부담은 줄어들었고 쉬운 드라마는 경우에 따라서는 거이 이해하지만 아직도 들리지 않는 단어는 계속 들리지 않네요. 또 하나의 문제는 말하기 인데요, 모든 학생들의 불만 이겠지만, 정말 늘지가 않아요. 그나마 어학연수로 터논 입이 자꾸만 굳어져요. 듣기를 계속하면 좀 말하기가 나아질까요? 아님 이번처럼 말하는 것도 나름대로 계속 각본을 짜고 외어봐야 할까요.

Listening, speaking, reading and writing can improve only with practice and
proper guidance. Writing can help improve your speaking, for writing helps
you think of the right words for your thoughts and ideas.
You said that you are not able to understand new words when you listen to
AFKN. Try listening to the news using the following three-step method:
First, read the Korean newspapers. This will familiarize you with the news.
Second, read the English newspapers. This will familiarize you with the
English vocabulary related to current news events and issues.
Third, listen to the English news on television. Because the first two
steps have familiarized you with the news events and issues as well as with
related vocabulary, you will find that you understand more of what you hear.
Follow these three steps daily, and your listening comprehension will
improve, and you will be able to understand new words.

American Culture Conquers the Globe
Hyunjoo: I wonder why my Ms. magazine isn't here yet. Anything interesting in your latest issue of Mother Jones magazine?
Gina: The cover story is about how globalization has resulted in American culture conquering the world. What's worse is that people do more than just buy American cultural products, like movies or books or clothes. They start to adopt American values, too.
Hyunjoo: That's because globalization is just imperialism for the 21st century. It's good to be exposed to other cultures, but you can't have genuine give-and-take when the people and the cultures involved don't have equal power.
Gina: Right. And the culture with the power is American commercial culture, so the values people learn are America's worst, not America's best. The idea that a woman's worth depends on being young and sexy, for example, or the idea that greed is good.
Hyunjoo: You can definitely see that in Korea. Just look at the advertisements. Sex is used to sell everything these days, and most women you see on TV or in magazines are young and sexy. Traditional Korean patriarchy has many problems, but I don't think that valuing women only for their youth and sex appeal is one of them.
Gina: America didn't always focus on female sex appeal, either. Commercial culture helped turned sex appeal into the primary measurement of a woman's worth.

Hi, YESusa,
A couple of days ago, my daughter asked me who the old man standing
in front of Kentucky Fried Chicken is. I answered that he might be
a president of KFC or an inventor of KFC recipe but promised her that
I would ask almighty YESusa. Who is the old man? Is it just a fictional
creature?
My daughter was delighted when she got the answer for a hot dog and
she became one of YESusa fans. I hope YESusa will continue its service
until she participates in the site for herself.
Thank you.
Dear Janice,
The old man is Colonel Sanders. According to KFC company legend, his recipe for fried chicken was famous throughout Kentucky, and he founded KFC to bring southern food to the rest of America.
YESusa plans to continue its service for as long as Koreans around the world need to learn English. Because our site's members include Koreans of all ages, we would be most pleased to welcome your daughter as a member. At the age of 12, she is at a wonderful stage to begin studying English through our web site. Writing skills can be learned almost intuitively at this age, and English would become not a foreign language, but truly a second language for her. As you know, the best way to learn how to express oneself accurately is to write. This is why children are assigned personal journals as writing exercises. Other members in her age group send us short English essays or journal entries with Korean in parentheses after expressions of which they are uncertain. This helps us find the right English expression for them and it also encourages them to be creative with their English writing.
We would also like to introduce 천재교육 직영 해법교실, our sister organization in Korea. It is the nation's top mathematical institute for children, so you may already know it well.
Sincerely,
YESusa
P.S. Following is an edited version of your email:

Black Feminist Pioneer
Ida B. Wells was a journalist at a time when few women in the United States, especially Black women, had the opportunities to gain education and careers. Although the majority of Black women worked, most labored to earn a living. The few who became professionals became schoolteachers or nurses. But Wells became not only a journalist, but a passionate advocate for the rights of Blacks and an outspoken opponent of the racist lynchings of Black men. Through her activism for Black people, she became one of the first role models of Black feminism.
She was born in Mississippi in 1862, just three years before the American Civil War ended. Her parents were slaves. After slavery was abolished with the victory of the American North in 1865, her father worked as a carpenter. He was active in political movements to improve the lives of the newly freed slaves. Many whites opposed giving Blacks citizenship, and the Ku Klux Klan used terror and violence to maintain white supremacy. Although Blacks were no longer slaves, they were still far oppressed by a system of racial discrimination that privileged whites.
Wells learned from her father's activism that resistance was the only way to obtain full equality for Blacks. She was an eloquent writer, and used her skills to investigate and write about injustices against Blacks. She toured the United States and England giving lectures about the rights of Blacks to full equality. She became famous for her crusade against lynchings, incidents in which mobs of white people hanged Black men. Lynchings were common in many areas of America, and the racist practice did not completely end until after World War II.
Wells died in 1931. Sadly, the racism she fought lives on, for America continues to oppress not only Blacks, but all peoples of color. The struggle against racism did not begin with her, however, and it did not end with her. The spirit of resistance burns brightly, for people of conscience everywhere continue to fight racism every way they know how.

What do you mean by "This is so in character to me"? 끝에서 두 번째 문장은 무슨 뜻으로 쓰셨나요? 우리말로 알려주시면 영작해 드리겠습니다.
안녕하세요. 이 홈페이지를 다른 site에서 추천하길래 한번 서핑해 보았습니다. 질문도 있구요. 정말 반갑습니다. 아래는 제가 궁금해 하는 사항인데 답변을 부탁 드려도 될까요?
'You've Got Mail'에 관련된 영어 기사의 첫 부분인데, 여기서 swap spit이 무슨 뜻인지 몰라 해석이 좀 애매하네요.
There's no swapping spit in cyberspace, so playing post office just isn't what it used to be. Online love affais, as "You've Got Mail" demonstrates, may be intriguing, even intimate, but they are also wordy and physically chaste. The Internet is unlikely to replace intercourse.
생각 끝에 swap spit이 kiss를 의미하는 게 아닐까 생각하기도 했는데 맞는지요?

Jazz musicians referred to cities where they were scheduled to perform as "apples." New York was considered the most desirable and also the biggest city in which to perform.

질문1. 예문2)에 the가 쓰이지 안았는데 옳은 문장입니까?
답변
예문 2)의 Yangtze River discharge를 분석하면 다음과 같습니다.
discharge는 문맥에 따라서 정관사가 필요하기도 하고 필요하지 않을 수도 있지만 Yangtze River는 형용사로써 명사 discharge를 수식하므로 정관사를 쓸 수 없습니다.
예문 1)의 Yangtze River는 명사로 쓰였으므로 정관사가 필요합니다.
질문2. Annual fluvial runoff resource in Yangtze River drainage basin.
이 경우 양쯔강 앞에 the를 써야 합니까?
답변
drainage basin는 항상 정관사와 함께 쓰입니다.
Yangtze River는 형용사로 명사 drainage basin을 수식하지만 drainage basin는 항상 정관사와 함께 쓰이므로 정관사가 꼭 필요합니다.
질문3. Fresh water discharge of Yangtze River.
이 경우 양쯔강 앞에 the를 써야 합니까? 그리고, Fresh water와 Freshwater 중 어느 것이 맞습니까? 둘 다 가능한지요. 아니면 쓰임이 다른지요?
답변
일반적으로 명사일 때는 뛰어 쓰고 형용사일 때는 붙여 쓰지만 그렇지 않을 경우도 있습니다.
1) fresh water: 명사
The Great Lakes are large bodies of fresh water.
2) freshwater: 형용사
Freshwater pearls have become fashionable.
논문에서는 명사의 뜻으로 사용되었으므로 fresh water로 쓰는 게 좋습니다.
위 문장은 다음과 같이 수정되어야 합니다.
fresh water discharge from the Yangtze River (문맥에 따라서 fresh water discharge 앞에 정관사가 올 수도 있고 그렇지 않을 수도 있습니다.)
질문4. 예문1)을 다음가 같이 쓰면 틀린지요? 어느 것이 더 나은 문장인지요? 예문1) 또는 아래 번호 중?
1) ...from the mouth of the Yangtze River to the shores off Cheju Island.
2) ...from the mouth of the Yangtze River to off the shores Cheju Island.
3) ...from the mouth of the Yangtze River to off Cheju Island.
사전을 찾아보니까 off 단어에는 앞바다라는 의미가 있더군요. 따라서 off를 사용하면 the shores를 쓸 필요가 없다고 생각되는데.
답변
위 문장은 모두 틀립니다. 다음과 같이 쓰입니다.
...from the mouth of the Yangtze River to the shores of Cheju Island

Of Games and Science
The percentage of women earning computer science degrees has actually
declined over the past decade, according to a recently released study. In
the United States, the peak was in 1983-84, when women earned 37.1 percent of computer
science bachelor's degrees. But in 1993-94 that percentage declined to 28.4
percent. The United States is not alone in this trend. Women used to make up a third of
students in information technology and related computer science courses in Great
Britain, but now they make up barely five percent.
Why did the numbers of women choosing to study computer science steadily
rise and then fall? Part of the answer may lie in computer games. When computer
science first became a popular major in the 1970s, computer games were rare. By the
late 1980s, however, they were all the rage. And most players were boys. With a few
exceptions, computer games were geared toward a male market, emphasizing sports,
war, and action adventures featuring heros, not heroines. Experience with these games
gave male college students the advantage of familiarity in college computer courses.
Computer professionals also note that gender discrimination is a factor. As
computer-related jobs became more lucrative and demanded long hours, companies were
more reluctant to hire women. And women became more reluctant to enter a field where
they faced such discrimination.

안녕하십니까, 김경미입니다.
눈 깜짝할 사이에 크리스마스도 다 지나가고 연말에 새해가 코앞에 다가오고 말았네요.
선생님들께서는 한해의 정리를 어떻게 하고 계시는지요??
전 정신이 없어서 제가 올해 뭘 하고 살았는지 생각도 안 날 정돕니다. 기억나는 일은 많지요, 가슴 아픈 경험도 했구요. 하지만 그만큼 얻은 것도 많은 한해였다고 생각을 합니다. 내년 한해는 정말 멋진 나날을 살고 싶네요. 20세기의 마지막 해잖아요?? 2000년을 더더욱 찬란하게 맞아들이기 위해서라도 내년은 있는 힘을 다해 정진해야 하겠네요.
선생님들을 알게 된지 얼마 되지는 않았지만 정말 너무 너무나 많은 도움을
받았습니다. 항상 감사드려요. 내년에도 함께 해주실 거죠??
늦었지만 선생님들께서도 부디 행복한 성탄절을 지내세요. 그리고 언제나 댁내에 행복이 가득하기를 멀리서 나마 기원하겠습니다.
Merry Christmas & Happy new year!!
김경미님께
교정본 보내드립니다.
연말이 다가오고 있습니다. 여러분께서는 지난 한해 동안 하신 일에 만족하고 계신가요? 새해는 다같이 뜻 깊은 해로 만듭시다.
This year is coming to an end. Are you satisfied with what you have done this year? (OR) Are you satisfied with what you have done throughout the year? Let's not spare any efforts to make next year a memorable one. (한국말에 충실하려니 이렇게 밖에 안되네요.) (OR) I wish you all the best for coming year. (맞는지 틀리는지...)
수정: The year is coming to an end. Are you satisfied with what you have done this past year? Let's work together for a memorable and happy new year.
구체적인 질문 1:'여러분께서는 지난 한해 동안 하신 일에 만족하고 계신가요?'를 영작할 때 Are you satisfied with what you have done this year? 이라고 만 해도 괜찮죠?? 그런데 this year 앞에 throughout 이나 during 을 붙여보면 어떤가요?? throughout this year 은 말이 되는 것 같은데 what you have done during this year 은 어딘지 모르게 좀 이상한 것 같거든요. 어디가 잘못된 거죠??
제 짧은 생각에는 during 은 완료시제랑 못쓰는 것 같아요. 차라리 what you did during this year 이라고 하면 나을까..사전을 찾아보니 during 은
1. throughout the duration of (swim everyday during the summer)
2. at a point in the course of (was offered a job during a visit to the capital)
라고 되어있는데 이것만 봐서는 왜 during 이랑 현재완료시제랑 이상하게
어긋나는 느낌이 드는지 설명이 안되네요. 좀 도와주세요.
답변: Regardless of verb tense, it is generally preferable to eliminate prepositions altogether and simply add the time element, as in the following examples:
What are you doing this summer?
What did you do this summer?
What have you been doing this past summer?
What have you done this summer?
What will you be doing this summer?
구체적인 질문 2: 연말이 다가오고 있다라는 표현에..just around the corner 나 draws to a close (영영사전에 보니까 나와있던데 확실히 어떤 때 쓰이는 것인지 잘 모르겠어요) 는 어떤가요??
답변: "just around the corner" can only be used to refer to things that are approaching, while "draws to a close" is for things that are ending. In reference to the new year and the end of the year, therefore, the best way to use these expressions are as follows:
The new year is just around the corner.
The year is drawing to a close.
Although it is possible to say "The end of the year is just around the corner," this is very awkward and so it is better to avoid this expression.
구체적인 질문 3: 음.. 마지막 문장을 let us have a great year 이라고 한다면, 좀 어색하지요?? let us 는 교회에서 기도할 때나 듣던 표현인 것 같아서..어떤가요? 평상시에는 let us 라는 말을 잘 안 쓰지요??
답변: In regular conversation, "let's" is commonly used. "Let us" is quite formal, and thus is reserved for formal or solemn occasions, such as church services, weddings, graduation ceremonies, and the like.

하지만 너무 빨리 자신을 바꾸려고 해서는 안됩니다. 자칫 자신에게 실망해서 포기해버리기가 쉽습니다. 또한 다른 사람들이 여러분의 변화된 모습을 금방 알아차려줄 것이라고 기대해서는 안됩니다. 사람들 중에는 여러분이 원하는 반응을 결코 보여주지 않는 사람도 있을 것이고, 마음을 열고 여러분과 사귀고 싶어하게 될 때까지 많은 시간이 걸리는 사람도 있을 것입니다.
원본 1: You should not try to change yourself too quickly. If you
try to do so, you might give it up because of disappointment
about yourself. Also you should not expect that other people
will recognize your changed shape immediately. There might
be some people those who never show up any responses
which you want to attract from them, and those who will take
a long time to be acquainted with you with their open mind.
원본 2: But you should never change yourself in a very short time.
Maybe you will give it up because of disappointing about
yourself. Also you should not expect that people soon realize
you're now different from past days. All people do not show
you what you want them to do you, and some need nore time
to become closer relationship with you.
교정본 1: You should not try to change yourself too quickly. Otherwise, you might give up in disappointment. Also, don't expect others to immediately recognize how you have changed. Some people may never respond the way you would like, and with others it may take a long time before they open their hearts to you.
교정본 2: But you should never try to change yourself too quickly. It's possible that you will just give up in disappointment. Also, you should not expect others to realize at once that you are now a different person from what you were. Not everyone will respond as you wish they would, and some will need more time to develop close relationships with you.
질문: 한국 사회의 조직에는 사원, 대리, 과장, 차장, 부장, 이사, 전무, 상무, 사장이라는 직급이 있습니다. 미국 사회의 일반적인 직급에 관한 단어를 알고 싶습니다.
답변: These vary greatly from corporation to corporation. Entry-level corporate positions often have titles that depend on job duties rather than position rank. Such titles would include consultant, analyst, and copy writer. Adding senior to the title indicates higher rank and can sometimes indicate that the person oversees a team of other professionals. A senior analyst, for example, might oversee a team of other analysts.
Titles that indicate rank are normally those that involve administrative duties such as overseeing a region, department or a team of workers. Some general job titles are, in roughly increasing order of rank: assistant manager, associate manager, manager, district manager, regional manager, assistant vice president, associate vice president, vice president, chief financial officer, president, chief executive officer, chairman.
질문: 외국인 학생들과 편지를 주고 받는 환경을 제공하고 싶은데, 추천할 만한 사이트가 있는지요? 아니면 지금 일하고 계신 사이트에서는 서로 맺어주는 그런 종류의 일도 하시는지 궁금합니다.

안녕하세요. 최승박입니다.
"영작은 문법, 독해, 어휘 등을 공부하고 난 후에 한다는 생각은 위험합니다. 동시에 하는 게 가장 좋습니다."
선생님이 답변해 주신 글을 읽다가 위와 같은 글이 있더라구요. 저도 선생님 글 읽기 전에 저렇게 할려고 노력은 해봤는데요. 순전히 제 생각이지만, 상당히 어렵더라구요. 물론 쉬운 것부터 차츰차츰 해야 하는 건 알지만..그것도 쉽지가 않구요. 현재 독해책 보다가 짜증이 나서(모르는 단어가 워낙 많아서)
그냥 회화책 그냥 읽기만 하고 있거든요.
한글을 먼저 읽고, 영문을 보는 식으루요. 몰라도 그냥 막연히 넘어가고 있습니다. 한번 써보지도 않구요. 그냥 한글 읽고 영문 읽고 이런식으루요. 이게 과연 도움이 될까요? 도움이 된다면 어떤 효과가 있을까요..
최승박님께
답변 보내드립니다.
초등학교 영어 교과서 ---> 중학교 영어 교과서 ---> 고등학교 영어 교과서로 공부를 시작한다면 시작 단계에서부터 영작, 문법, 독해, 어휘, 회화, 발음을 동시에 공부할 수 있습니다. 기초 단계에서부터 하기 때문에 시간도 걸리고 진도도 느릴 겁니다. 하지만 이제껏 공부해 오신 방법과 비교한다면 어렵다는 느낌은 거의 들지 않을 겁니다.
이때 주의하실 점은 교과서와 테이프, 사전만 가지고 시작하세요. 꼭 필요할 때 자습서를 보시기 바랍니다.
한글을 먼저 읽고 영문을 보는 식의 공부법은 위험한 습관입니다. 하루 빨리 이 습관을 버려야 합니다.
영어 때문에 좌절하실 필요는 없습니다. 영어도 말이므로 말을 배운다고 쉽게 생각하세요. 조급하게 생각 마시고 6개월 후를 내다 보고 1차 계획을 세워보세요.

A1. 상황에 따라서는 중얼거리면서 눈으로 읽어야 할 때도 있겠지만 입으로 소리내어 읽는 게 좋습니다.
Q2. 단어를 외우는 게 좋을까요..문장을 외우는 게 좋을까요..
A2. 문장을 외우는 게 좋습니다. 하지만 길고 어려운 문장은 피하세요. 초등영어 교과서부터 시작하는 건 어떠세요?
Q3. 서점에서 독해 책을 두 권 샀는데 두 권이 지향하는 목표가 달라서 혼동이 많이 옵니다.. 책 한 권은 영어 문장 순서대로 해석하는 것이고, 또 책한 권은 영어 문법 순서에 따라 정확하게 해석하는 겁니다.. 어떤 게 더 효과가 좋을까요..
A3. 초보자에게는 영어 문법에 따라 해석하는 것 보다 영어 문장 순서대로 해석하는 게 좋습니다. 참고로 정확한 해석을 해야 할 경우라면 문장의 구조에 따라 해석해야 합니다. 문장의 구조란 넓은 의미에서 영어문법을 뜻 하지만 사실 복잡한 문법을 몰라도 문장의 구조에 따라 글을 읽으면 정확한 해석이 됩니다. 그러므로 문법은 기본만 하겠다라는 생각으로 부담 갖지 마시기 바랍니다.
Q4. 한글->영문으로 바꾸는 연습과 영문->한글로 해석하는 연습 중 어느 게 더 효과가 좋을까요.. 전 회화가 목적이거든요..
A4. 회화를 잘하려면 많은 영어(영화 등 등)를 접해야 합니다. 즉 많은 영어 표현을 접하고 이 표현들에 익숙해지다 보면 내 영어가 된다는 뜻입니다.
Q5. 그리고 그 많은 영어 단어들.. 잘 보면 규칙이 보이는 것 같던데 단어를 외우는 방법이 있나요? 예를 들면 앞에 ad... 로 시작하는 단어는 대체로 어떤 의미를 포함하고 있다 라든지..

2) 문맥에 따라서 전치사 고유의 뜻으로 해석되기도 하고 그렇지 않을 수도 있습니다. 영자 신문, 잡지 등을 접하게 되면 많은 경우 전치사 고유의 뜻으로 해석되지 않음을 알게 됩니다.
전치사의 기본 뜻을 습득한 후 영자 신문, 잡지 등에서 글을 접할 때는 (전치사에 초점을 두지 말고) 문맥의 흐름에 초점을 맞춰서 해석해야 합니다.

A Study On Heat Fluxes In The South Sea Of Korea
Kim, Byung Choon
(Directed by Professor Cho, Yang Ki)
Department of Oceanography
Graduate School of Chonnam National University
Kwangju, Korea
Abstract
The long-term mean (10-year mean) surface heat fluxes over the
South Sea of Korea are estimated by the bulk method using the most
available meteorological observatory data along the Southern
coast of Korea and from the KODC (Korea Oceanographic Data Center).
Applying the Box model, mean sea flow velocity and heat content were
calculated. The long-term annual mean net heat flux is about
-110W/m-2 (negative sign means that the sea loses heat from the
air) with the annual range from 90W/m-2 in June to -327W/m-2 in
December. The region with the largest loss of heat is in the Southeast of
Cheju Island. This seems to indicate the existence of the Tsushima Warm
Current. In that area in winter, the maximum loss of heat is
-403W/m-2. The largest insolation occurs in May and the smallest in
December. This is due to variation in cloudiness.
The calculated insolation is in good agreement with direct
measurements at meteorological observatories. The long-wave
radiation has small variations, but it shows a maximum value in winter
and a minimum in summer. The upward latent heat flux becomes the
largest in December in this area. In June, the latent heat flux and
sensible heat flux are the smallest.
The annual variations in heat fluxes in this area are closely related
to the SST minus air temperature and the air temperature itself.
In February and August, annual variations of heat fluxes are larger than
in other months. This is due to variations in marine-meteorological
variables.
Assuming that the transport of the Korea Straits is 3.0×106 m3/sec
in the Box model, incoming heat content through B3 is about 76% and
the other is through B1. Outgoing heat content through B2 is 95% and
the other is through the sea surface.
