Tips to Remember:
• Think of "뿐" as a short, punchy word that emphasizes the idea of “only” or “just” – imagine a single “boon” standing alone.
• Associate it with its extended form "뿐만 아니라" (bboonman anira), meaning “not only … but also,” to remember its versatility.
Explanations:
• "뿐" is used to indicate that something is limited exclusively to one thing.
• It is often attached to a noun (or noun phrase) to stress that nothing else is included.
• When combined with "이다" (ida) as in "뿐이다" (bboonida), it means “is only.”
Other Words with a Similar Meaning:
• "만" (man) – commonly used as the particle for “only.”
• "밖에" (bakke) – also means “only,” but is used with a negative verb (e.g., "먹을 수밖에 없다" means “can only eat” in the sense of “have no other option”).
Alternate Meanings / Slang:
• There isn’t a widely recognized slang use for "뿐"; its meaning remains centered on “only” or “just” in most contexts.
• In informal speech, emphasis might be added simply by intonation, but the core meaning stays the same.
Example Sentences:
• 나는 너뿐이야.
Romanization: naneun neoppuniya
Meaning: It’s only you. / You’re the only one for me.
• 이거뿐이다.
Romanization: igeosppunida
Meaning: It’s just this.
• 공부뿐 아니라 운동도 중요해요.
Romanization: gongbuppun anira undongdo jungyohaneyo
Meaning: Not only studying but also exercise is important.
• 그는 돈뿐 아니라 명예도 원해요.
Romanization: geuneun donbppun anira myeongye-do wonhaeyo
