She’s/He’s washing them in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

"그 사람은 그것들을 씻고 있어요." breaks down as follows:

• "그 사람은" – "그 사람" means "that person." The particle "은" is a topic marker attached to the noun to indicate that "that person" is what the sentence is about.
  Romanized: geu saram-eun

• "그것들을" – "그것들" is the plural form of "그것" ("that thing" or "it"), and the particle "을" marks it as the object of the verb.
  Romanized: geugeot-deul-eul

• "씻고 있어요" – The base verb "씻다" means "to wash." The form "씻고 있어요" is made up of the verb stem "씻-" plus "-고 있다" which expresses a continuous/progressive action (i.e., "is washing"). This is a common way in Korean to indicate something is happening right now.
  Romanized: ssitgoseoyo

Tips to remember:

• Korean typically places the topic/subject first and the object next, followed by the verb at the end.
• Use 은/는 after the subject to mark it as the topic and 을/를 after the object to show what the action is performed on.
• To form the present progressive, take the verb stem and add -고 있어요. For example, "읽다" (to read) becomes "읽고 있어요" (is reading).

Alternate ways to say "She's/He's washing them":

• 그 사람은 그것들을 씻고 있습니다.
  Romanized: geu saram-eun geugeot-deul-eul ssitgoseumnida
  (This is a more formal version.)

• 그 분은 그것들을 씻고 계세요.
  Romanized: geu bun-eun geugeot-deul-eul ssitgokegyeyo
  (Using "그 분" instead of "그 사람" shows respect or formality.)

Each variant retains the core structure while slightly shifting nuance or formality.
