It’s impossible that he wins in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

1. Sentence Breakdown:
• 이기는 (igi-neun): This is the present participle form of the verb 이기다 (“to win”) with the adjectival ending ~는. It functions like “winning.”
• 것은 (geos-eun): Literally “thing” (것) with the subject marker 은 attached, turning the whole expression “winning” into the subject of the sentence.
• 불가능합니다 (bulganeunghamnida): This is the formal statement meaning “is impossible,” constructed from 불 (not) + 가능 (possible) with the formal verb ending 합니다.

2. Formation Tips:
• Recognize that Korean often turns verbs into adjectives by adding ~는, allowing you to use actions as subjects (e.g. 이기는 “winning”).
• Remember that ~것은 is a way to nominalize a clause into a subject.
• Note that 불가능합니다 is a formal, polite ending. If you need less formality, you might use 불가능해요.

3. Alternate Ways to Say “It’s impossible that he wins”:
• 그가 이기는 것은 불가능합니다. (Geuga igineun geos-eun bulganeunghamnida.) – Adds “그가” (“he”) as the subject.
• 그가 이길 수 없습니다. (Geuga igil su eopseumnida.) – Literally “He has no ability to win,” conveying the same meaning in a different construction.
