6. Postpositions
In a sentence, the grammatical function of words depend on postpositions.
ex)
(Cheolsu hit the ball).
( The ball hit Cheolsu).
Postpositions `/' come after nouns, pronouns, and numerals to make the subject form.
Proposition`/' come after nouns, pronouns, and numerals to make the object form. Other
postpositions consist of `' which signifies `direction' or `destination,'
`' which signifies `location,' and `/' which signifies `the means' or a `tool.'
ex)
. (I'm going to Seoul.)
. (I study at school.)
. (I'm going by taxi.)

7. Positives and Negatives

There are three ways to make a sentence positive or negative.
1. / (/) .
ex)
. (I am Korean.) / . (I am not a Korean.)

2. /
ex)
. (I have a Korean friend.) / . (I don't have a Korean
friend.)
3. In order to make any other verbs negative, one places `' in front of the

predicate.
ex)
. (I eat Gimchi.) / . (I don't eat Gimchi.)
