At that time in Korean 🇰🇷

그때 info.

Tips to remember:
• Break it into two parts: “그” means “that” and “때” means “time.” Think of it as “that time.”
• Remember the similar sound to “good day” but replace “good” with “that” to cue the association with a past time.

Explanation:
• “그때” (geuttae) is used to refer to a specific moment or period previously mentioned or understood in context. It functions similarly to “at that time” in English.

Other words with similar meanings:
• 당시 (dangsi) – a more formal term for “at that time.”
• 그 시절 (geu sijeol) – meaning “that period” or “those days.”

Alternate meanings/slang:
• In casual speech, “그때” can also be used nostalgically when recalling past experiences. However, it does not have widely recognized slang meanings beyond its standard temporal reference.

Example sentences:
• “그때, 모든 것이 달라졌어.”
 (Geuttae, modeun geosi dallajyeosseo.)
 “At that time, everything changed.”
• “나는 그때, 매우 행복했어.”
 (Naneun geuttae, maeu haengbokhaesseo.)
 “I was very happy at that time.”
• “우리는 그때를 잊지 못할 거야.”
 (Ulineun geuttaereul itji mothal geoya.)
 “We will never forget that time.”
