Next in Korean 🇰🇷

다음 info.

Tips to Remember:
• Think of “다음” (romanized: daeum) as the moment right after the current one—you always look forward to what’s coming next.
• Imagine a countdown; when one round ends, the countdown “transitions” to the 다음 round, reinforcing the meaning “next.”

Explanations:
• “다음” means “next” or “following” and is commonly used to indicate the item or time that comes immediately after the current one.
• It functions as both an adjective (e.g., “다음 주”, meaning “next week”) and a noun (referring to the next item in a sequence).

Other Words with Similar Meanings:
• 이후 (ihu) – means “after” or “later,” though it can have a broader sense of “subsequent.”
• 차후 (chahu) – often used in formal contexts to indicate “subsequent” or “later.”

Alternate Meanings (including Slang):
• When capitalized as “Daum,” it refers to a major South Korean web portal. In casual conversations, mentioning “Daum” might be understood as referring to this online service rather than the word “next.”
• In menus (like on electronic devices or websites), “다음” appears as the button to move forward to the next page or item.

Example Sentences:
• “다음 주에 만나요.”
  Romanization: “Daeum ju-e mannayo.”
  Meaning: “See you next week.”
• “다음 버스를 기다려요.”
  Romanization: “Daeum beoseu-reul gidaryeoyo.”
  Meaning: “I’m waiting for the next bus.”
• “다음 페이지로 넘어가세요.”
  Romanization: “Daeum peijero neomeogaseyo.”
