Tips to Remember
• Think of a lid (덮개 [deopgae]) covering something—when something is covered, it’s "덮이다" (deopyeoda).
• Remember that the passive ending “-이다” indicates the state of being, so “덮이다” means “to be covered.”

Explanations
• "덮이다" is the passive form of "덮다" (to cover). It means that something gets covered by another object or substance.
• It is an intransitive verb used to describe the state of being covered without specifying the agent.

Other Words with Similar Meanings
• "씌워지다" (sshiwojida) – can also mean “to be covered” or “to be overlaid.”
