I got married last year in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

In the sentence "나는 작년에 결혼했다," the structure is as follows:

• "나" means "I," and when combined with the topic marker "는" it becomes "나는" (na-neun), emphasizing the subject "I."
• "작년" means "last year." When you add the time particle "에" to indicate when something occurred, it becomes "작년에" (jak-nyeon-e).
• "결혼했다" is the past tense of the verb "결혼하다" (gyeol-hon-ha-da), meaning "to get married." The ending "했다" shows that the action is completed, translating to "got married."

Tips to remember:
• Recognize that Korean often marks the subject with particles like "는," and time expressions use "에" after the time noun.
• When forming past tense verbs, note that many Korean verbs end with "했다" in the narrative past, which is a common way to denote a completed action.
• Practice by identifying subjects, time markers, and main verbs in sentences to see how particles indicate grammatical roles.

• "나는 지난해 결혼했어." (na-neun ji-nan-hae gyeol-hon-haet-seo) – another informal variant using "지난해" for "last year."
