To be thick in Korean 🇰🇷

짙다 info.

Tips to Remember:
• Associate "짙다" (jitda) with thick, deep, or intense colors—think of a very saturated color being “thick” in appearance.
• Remember that the “짙” sound resembles the English word “thick,” making it easier to recall its meaning.

Explanation:
• "짙다" means that a color, smell, or characteristic is deep, intense, or strong. It is often used to describe colors (e.g., dark, saturated colors) or sometimes even smells.
• The word functions as a descriptive adjective in Korean.

Synonyms:
• 진하다 (jinhada) – also used to describe deep or intense colors or flavors.
• 농도가 짙다 (nongdo-ga jitda) – when referring to the concentration or density of a substance.
