🇵🇭 Teka muna! Mas madali ang grammar kapag alam mo na ang mga salita — kung hindi mo pa naaral ang Chapter 28-2 Vocabulary (Chuseok), i-memorize muna ito! Ngayon, aralin natin ang -(으)ㄹ 줄 알다/모르다, kung paano sabihing marunong ka o hindi gumawa ng isang bagay.

📌 1. What is -(으)ㄹ 줄 알다/모르다?

-(으)ㄹ 줄 알다/모르다 is attached to a verb to show whether you know (or don’t know) HOW to do something — the method or skill.
🇵🇭 Idinidikit ang -(으)ㄹ 줄 알다/모르다 sa isang pandiwa upang ipakita kung alam mo (o hindi alam) kung PAANO gawin ang isang bagay — ang paraan o kasanayan.

[Basic pattern]
✅ Verb stem WITH a Final Consonant (받침 O) 👉 + -을 줄 알다/모르다 (e.g., 먹다 → 먹을 줄 알아요)
✅ Verb stem WITHOUT a Final Consonant, or 받침 ‘ㄹ’ 👉 + -ㄹ 줄 알다/모르다 (e.g., 타다 → 탈 줄 알아요, 만들다 → 만들 줄 알아요)
💡 Remember: “Stem” means removing -다 first! Full explanation in Chapter 4-1.
🇵🇭 Tandaan: tinatanggal muna ang -다 para makuha ang “stem”! Buong paliwanag sa Chapter 4-1.
