Do you want to get married someday? in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

This sentence is built from several components:
• 언젠가 (eonjenga) – This means “someday” or “at some point.” It functions as an adverb and usually comes at the beginning of the sentence.

• 결혼 (gyeolhon) – This is the noun for “marriage.” It comes from the verb 결혼하다 (gyeolhonhada), which means “to marry.”

• 하고 싶습니까 (hago sipseumnikka) – This part is formed by taking the verb stem from 결혼하다 (“to marry”), attaching 하고 (hago, meaning “to do” after the noun 결혼) to indicate the action, then 싶다 (sipda, “to want”), and finally adding the formal question ending 습니까? (seumnikka?) to make the whole sentence a polite question. Essentially, 결혼하고 싶습니까? translates to “Do you want to marry?”

Tips to remember:
• Note that Korean sentences often omit the subject when it's understood from context.
• The construction “-고 싶다” is a general way to express desires with verbs, so once you learn this pattern, you can attach many verbs before it.
• The formal question ending 습니까? is used in formal settings; in informal contexts, you might use -어? or -니?

Alternate ways to say “Do you want to get married someday?”
• 언젠가 결혼하고 싶으세요? (Eonjenga gyeolhonhago sipseyo?) – A slightly softer, yet still polite, version.
• 언젠가 결혼할래요? (Eonjenga gyeolhonallaeyo?) – A more casual variation asking “Do you want to marry someday?”

Each of these alternates varies in formality and nuance but conveys the general idea of asking about marriage plans in the future.
