Can you repeat it please? in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

다시 말씀해 주세요? breaks down into three parts:

• 다시 (dashi): means “again.”
• 말씀 (malsseum): is the honorific term for “말,” meaning “word” or “speech.” It is used to show respect when referring to someone’s speech.
• 해 주세요 (hae juseyo): combines the verb 하다 (“to do”) in its polite imperative form with 주세요 (“please do/give”), making it a courteous request.

Together, the sentence literally translates to “Please do your speaking again” or simply “Please say it again.”

Tips to remember:
• Recognize that 다시 always signifies repetition.
• Note that 말씀 is the honorific version of 말. Use it when speaking to someone elder or in a formal context.
• 해 주세요 is a versatile polite request ending that can be attached to many verbs.

Alternate ways to say “Can you repeat it please?”:
• 다시 한 번 말씀해 주시겠어요? (dashi han beon malsseumhae jusigesseoyo?) – “Could you please say it one more time?”
• 한 번만 더 말해 주실래요? (han beonman deo malhae jusillaeyo?) – “Would you mind saying it one more time?”
