I don’t think you’ve eaten snake in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

저는 (jeoneun)
• 저 means “I” (humble form)
• 는 is the topic marker (“as for me”)

그쪽이 (geujjoki)
• 그쪽 means “that side” or “that person” (referring to “you” in this context)
• 이 is the subject marker

뱀을 (baemeul)
• 뱀 means “snake”
• 을 is the object marker

먹었다고 (meogeotdago)
• 먹었다 is the past form of 먹다 (“ate”)
• 고 attached here functions to quote or report what was said or assumed (“that …”)
• Thus 먹었다고 means “that [someone] ate”

생각하지 않아요 (saenggakhaji anayo)
• 생각하다 means “to think”
• 지 않아요 makes the verb negative (“do not think”) in a polite form

Combined literal translation: “I do not think that that person ate snake.”
Natural translation: “I don't think you've eaten snake.”

Tips to remember:
• Notice how Korean uses topic and subject markers (는, 이) to show roles in the sentence.
• The structure “Verb-었다고” is a way to report a statement, in this case what is being thought.
• To say “I don't think…” you can use “생각하지 않아요” for politeness.

Alternate ways to express “I don’t think you’ve eaten snake”:
• 저는 그쪽이 뱀을 먹은 거라고 생각하지 않아요.
 – Here, 먹은 거라고 emphasizes “the act of having eaten” by using 먹은 거 (“the thing that was eaten”).
• 저는 네가 뱀을 먹었다고 생각하지 않아요.
 – Replacing 그쪽이 with 네가 (“you” as subject) makes it more direct.
• 저는 뱀을 드셨다고 생각하지 않아요.
 – Using 드셨다 (an honorific form of 먹었다) is polite if referring to someone senior.
