You learned previously that you use 더 in the following situation: 저는 3 시간 더 공부했다. This means that you studied for 3 more hours. However, 저는 3 시간 이상 공부했다 means that you studied for more than 3 hours. By putting 이상 after a word (usually a time or a noun), it has the meaning of “more than ____”: For example: 18세 이상 = over 18 years of age You can also put 더 behind 이상 to make 더 이상 which is usually used in negative sentences to mean “anymore”: 나는 이 영화를 더 이상 보고 싶지 않아 = I don’t want to watch this movie anymore 빠지다 is another word that can be used in a wide variety of situations (like 들다 or 걸리다). It’s main meaning is to “fall into _____.” Depending on what “____” is, the meaning of 빠지다 can change slightly. One common usage of 빠지다 is “사랑에 빠지다” which means “to fall in love.” 빠지다 can also be combined with 나오가 or 나가다 to make 빠져나오다/빠져나가다, which both mean “to escape.” However, when you use these words, the meaning of “escape” is a little bit more complex. When you use 빠져나오다/빠져나가다 is sort of means that you were somehow able to wriggle your way out of a situation. 또는 pretty simply means “or” but be careful not to use this with verbs. It can only separate two nouns. You can use it with verbs if the verb is in noun form, but you don’t know how to do that yet. 늘다 is the passive form of the verb ‘to increase’ – which means it’s definition is “to have increased/to have gained.” A common way this is used is to indicate that somebody’s skills increased: 저의 친구의 한국어 실력이 많이 늘었다 = My friend’s Korean (skills) really increased/got better The active form of this verb is 늘리다: 저의 친구는 한국어 실력을 늘렸다 = My friend increased his Korean skills Always remember the difference between passive and active verbs. howtostudykorean
