    Over explainer? That's new.
    I always thought your explanation were your USP. That's where your videos shines!
    They are perfect for non natives.

    Thank you so much 샘. Your examples made the difference between the two very clear. I appreciate how much research you put into your videos and how you respond to questions we have. Your definitely my fav channel to learn Korean from

    We usually call the outside of watermelon the "rind" (US English). Rind is used for fruits with hard exteriors like melons have, where as "peel" is used for softer ones like with oranges or apples. Rind is also used for some hard cheeses as well that have a hard outer layer. Shell of course still makes perfect sense! Flesh is absolutely correct for watermelon. Just incase you were still wondering! :)

    This was a perfect explanation! I just learned what 속 was when I got a Korean sentence of mine corrected, not knowing there was another word for "inside", but this helped so much in giving me the 'why' behind the correction. I was even able to guess all answers correctly at the end. Great job! 감사합니다.

    This is so wonderful, 쌤! 👍 I also agree 안 and 속 are interchangeable for 주머니, 가방, 옷장! 😃 안 vs 속 어려워하는 학생들 많은데, 너무 도움이 되는 비디오네요!!! 저도 제 “머릿속에” 있는 예들 나올 때마다 반가워하면서 너무 재미있게 봤어요! 🤩

    Here is a tip: imagine that you turn a thing up side down that what's in it drops out by gravity, it is 안. Whereas if it stays inside, it is 속.

    Completely clear! You can also explain the difference between -은, -면 and -았/었던. I know it’s a very hard one, that’s why we need it, I understood at last after studying a lot their differences and even though I understand now, it’s really hard to choose one to use it when speaking... I hope you can do it 💪🏻❤️ 수고하세요! 화이팅!

    감사합니다 샘씨. For watermelon the outside is probably called the skin, not the shell. Fleshy is a proper term for the red meaty part of the watermelon. With pocket and purse, would thinking about the context of the discussion help in making the decision . If we were talking about the lining, or number of sections inside a purse, would we use 속, but if we were talking about makeup or car keys, or other things we put into the purse to take out and use later, things that are in the purse sometimes, but outside the purse at other times, would we use 안?

    I wonder if this is something Korean speakers get mixed up too sometimes, use the wrong one or are unsure :)

    • @YourKoreanSaem

      I think if they mix it up it will be for the interchangeable ones that I mention later in the video :P

  • @회기-c3w
    @회기-c3w ปีที่แล้ว

    Your simple explanation related to differentiating the usage of 안 and 속 is very helpful. But there is a usage that I recalled in the Bible that comes up a lot. 그리스도 안에서. Does this imply that Jesus is empty inside? Or does it imply that Jesus is some kind of boundary that we are told to pass through and to be inside is not to be part of the boundary?

    Hello Saem!
    Pls clarify me the difference b/w the pronunciation ofㅏand ㅡ in korean...
    Because most of the times, they both sound the same, but influence the syllable block order...
    I'm stuck in this :(
    PLEASE HELP!!

    It seems like 안 is mostly used for artificial things, as boundaries are always something that humans make or see.

    • @YourKoreanSaem
      @YourKoreanSaem  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a really interesting way of looking at it!

  • @CyberMew
    @CyberMew 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    if we say building 속, then it will be literally inside the metal/concrete of the building materials itself i think.

  • @ni5439
    @ni5439 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What would "inside a glass of water" be in Korean?
    The glass itself is a division between the outside and the inside of the glass (안). But at the same time, would a glass of water be called like that if water wasn't a part of it's interior (속)?
    Which one is used? Is the water or the glass more important in that sentence?

    • @YourKoreanSaem
      @YourKoreanSaem  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Depends on what you’re trying to say? In which context would u want to say inside a glass of water? If say you’re “mixing” something into a glass of water then the water would be more important but there are other verbs to use and you might not need to use either 안 or 속. So context 😊

    • @ni5439
      @ni5439 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@YourKoreanSaemSomething like "there's a fly in the glass of water".
      Also, what about something more abstract? In Spanish we have an idiomatic expression that in English would be "don't drown in a glass of water" (don't be overwhelmed by small problems) I assume Koreans don't use it but, how would you say it in Korean?
      Btw, thanks for the video. It was very informative and cleared all of my doubts. I'm just nitpicking here

    • @YourKoreanSaem
      @YourKoreanSaem  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No problem, I understand. I think you could use either one and it makes sense. If you use 속 it should modify the 물 (water) and if you use 안 it should modify the 컵. So it depends on how you structure your sentence.

  • @바보Queen
    @바보Queen 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    so saying in my mind would be 속.. same as memory .. more abstract.. for non tangible things

      The common phrase is (엄마의) 배 속 so inside the belly rather than inside the mom :)
