It is curious that they have accepted in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

Structure Explanation:
• “그들이” (geudeuri) – “그들” means “they,” and adding “이” marks it as the subject in the sentence.
• “받아들인” (badadeurin) – This is the modifying (relative clause) form of the verb “받아들이다” (badadeurida), meaning “to accept.” In Korean, when a verb is used to describe a noun (“것” in this case), its form changes to an attributive form. For past action, “-은” or “-인” is used, hence “받아들인.”
• “것이” (geosi) – “것” means “thing” or “matter.” The particle “이” attached to “것” marks it as the subject of the following adjective.
• “궁금합니다” (gunghumhamnida) – A formal expression meaning “is curious” or “I wonder,” concluding the sentence.

Tips to Remember:
• When forming relative clauses in Korean, practice converting verbs into their modifying forms (e.g., “받아들이다” becomes “받아들인” for past descriptions).
• Recognize that the noun “것” can serve as a placeholder for “what” has been accepted, making the sentence “the thing that they accepted.”
• Notice the subject-predicate structure: the relative clause (“그들이 받아들인 것”) is the subject of the sentence, followed by the adjective “궁금합니다.”

Alternate Ways to Express “It is curious that they have accepted”:
• “그들이 받아들였다는 사실이 궁금합니다.” (Geudeuri badadeuryeotdaneun sasil-i gunghumhamnida.)
 – This uses “받아들였다는” (the fact that they accepted) instead of the relative clause directly.
• “그들이 받아들인 것이 신기합니다.” (Geudeuri badadeurin geosi singihamnida.)
 – Here “신기합니다” (is amazing/interesting) replaces “궁금합니다,” offering a slightly different nuance.

Each version maintains the core meaning while slightly altering the nuance or structure.
