You may have to pay them in Korean 🇰🇷

Sentence info.

Breakdown of the sentence:
• "그들에게" means “to them.” "그들" (geudeul) means “them” and the particle "에게" (ege) marks the indirect object.
• "지불해야" comes from "지불하다" meaning “to pay.” The ending "해야" (jibulhaeya) indicates necessity, equivalent to “must” or “have to.”
• "할지도" attaches to the verb "하다" (to do) in its future/nominalized form "할" and combines with "지도" (haljido) to express possibility (“might have to”).
• "모릅니다" (moreumnida) is the polite, formal negative form of 모르다 (to know), used here as part of the “-지도 모릅니다” structure that implies uncertainty about necessity.

Tips to remember:
• Notice that Korean often omits the subject, so focus on particles like "에게" to understand the roles.
• The necessity concept is expressed with the form "해야" (must do) attached to the verb.
• The uncertainty or possibility is conveyed by the pattern "할지도 모릅니다"—a common way to say “might/may have to.”
