Tips to Remember:
• Connect the idea of “등” with the concept of “the rest” or “others.” Imagine a row of items where after listing a few, you gesture to the “back” (등, pronounced “deung”) where more items are hidden.
• Recall that “등” is short and simple, much like “etc.” in English, signaling that there are additional, similar items not fully listed.
Explanations:
• In this context, “등” is used after a list to indicate “etcetera” or “and so on.” It suggests that the mentioned items are part of a larger group.
• It can appear alone as “등” or in the repeated form “등등” for emphasis.
Other Words with the Same Meaning:
• 기타 (gita) – meaning “others” or “etcetera.”
• 기타 등등 (gita deungdeung) – “and so on” or “etcetera.”
Alternate Meanings (including slang):
• “등” also means “back” (as in the human body). For example, “허리와 등이 아프다” means “My waist and back hurt.”
• In slang, derivatives like “등신” (deungshin) can be pejorative, referring to someone considered foolish or clumsy, but this use is separate from the “etc.” meaning.
