I want you to demand money from him in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

Breakdown of 나는당신이돈을요구하기를바랍니다:

1. 나는 (na-neun) – “I” with the topic marker 는 attached.
 • Tip: Remember that pronouns in Korean often include markers (은/는 for topics, 이/가 for subjects) to clarify the sentence’s focus.

2. 당신이 (dangsin-i) – “you” with the subject marker 이 attached.
 • Tip: When referring directly to someone in a formal context, 당신 can be used, but note that using a name or title is often more natural.

3. 돈을 (don-eul) – “money” with the object marker 을 attached.
 • Tip: The object marker 을/를 comes right after the noun that is being acted upon.

4. 요구하기를 (yogu-hagi-reul) – “demanding” as a noun phrase, formed by taking the verb 요구하다 (“to demand”), turning it into a noun with -기, then adding the object marker 를 (here functioning as a grammatical connector in constructions like “…하기를 바랍니다”).
 • Tip: To express “to do something” in a noun-like form, attach -기 to the verb stem. Then, when used in a clause that is the object of another verb (like 바랍다), attach 를.

5. 바랍니다 (baramnida) – “I hope” or “I wish” (formal), expressing the speaker’s desire.
 • Tip: 바랍다 is a polite/formal verb meaning “to wish” or “to hope.” It is commonly used in written or formal speech.

Formation Note:
The sentence literally means “I wish that you demand money.” The structure follows: [Topic] + [Subject doing the action] + [Object] + [Action turned into a noun with -기 + marker] + [Desire verb]. This is a common pattern to express that one person wants another to perform an action.

Alternate ways to say “I want you to demand money from him”:

Alternate 1:
나는 당신이 그에게 돈을 요구하기를 바랍니다.
(na-neun dangsin-i geu-e-ge don-eul yogu-hagi-reul baramnida.)
This adds 그에게 meaning “from him” or “to him” depending on context.

Alternate 2:
나는 당신이 그에게 돈을 요구하길 원합니다.
(na-neun dangsin-i geu-e-ge don-eul yogu-hagil wonamnida.)
Here, 요구하길 is a contracted, less formal form of 요구하기를, and 원합니다 means “I want” instead of “I hope.”

Alternate 3:
나는 당신이 그에게 돈을 요구해 주었으면 좋겠습니다.
(na-neun dangsin-i geu-e-ge don-eul yogu-hae ju-eoss-eumyeon jokesseumnida.)
This expression softens the request by saying “it would be good if you could demand money from him,” using the structure …았으면 좋겠습니다 for suggestions or wishes.

These variations all convey the speaker’s desire for the addressed person to demand money from him, though with slight differences in tone and formality.
