《Korean Language 101》Topic Markers
Advertisement
This concept might be new to some of you but its interesting. The topic markers are the particles which are added with a noun to show what we are talking about. They are '은' and '는'.
The particle 은 is used with words ending with a consinant while 는 is used with words ending with a vowel.
For example,
저는 - I
너는 - You
나는 - I
커피는 - the coffee
밥은 - the meal/rice
좋은 - is good
우산은 - the umbrella (우산 - umbrella)
Now how to use in sentences?
저는 말코예요.
Marco.
저는 미나예요.
Mina.
저는 학생이에요.
a student.
저는 선생님이에요.
a teacher.
저는 지수의 엄머니예요.
Jisu's mother.
We have a different case here,
오늘은 저는 영화 볼거예요.
Today will watch a movie.
In this exmple, the topic is "Today" but its "I" who will watch a movie, not "Today". Therefore we add the topic particle to 저 as well.
The topic markers are also used to emphasize or highlight a certain point of the topic. A few examples are,
이거는 싫어요.
I hate/dislike/don't want one.
그거는 예뻐요.
one is pretty.
오늘 날씨 좋네요.
Today the weather is good.
오늘은 날씨 좋네요.
the weather is good.
오늘은 날씨는 좋네요.
Today, the is good.
은/는 are used in the means of the noun being "unique" among others or "different".
These are not used in every other sentence just like WE DON'T EMPHASIZE EVERY SINGLE THING THE WAY I AM DOING RIGHT NOW COZ ITS ANNOYING. So we seldom use these particles. But they're used a lot in the form:
저는
너는
나는
당싱은
이거는
저거는
그거는
여기는
저기는
거기는
Okay? Okay.
That's it for today,
안녕~ 다음에 봐요♡

Longshots
Superpowers ... without capes. A man produces narcotic gas in his lungs, a woman turns into a wall of corrosive flesh. One girl creates tiny stinging 'mayflies' while another is assaulted by the emotions of anyone she touches. After the mysterious 'Seventeen Seconds' sweeps the globe, a handful of people develop extraordinary abilities. Rachel's father is one of them--and that's why she shoots him. But four years after she's charged with his murder, he reappears. He's rich. He's connected. And he's plotting to destroy a city. To stop him, Rachel enlists the help of Lark Larson, an easygoing slacker with bizarre abilities of his own.

Another Day
New day shall come, again and again. Some will see it, some won't. And that is what I have been telling myself for quite some time... One more day. Just one more day. 18+ Extreme profanity, violence and gore. Size of chapters grow a 'bit'. [Chapter 4 - 2000 words.] [Chapter 20 - 15000 words.] This project was caused by huge amount of fantasy stories I have read on royalroad, and the issues I had, and still have with them. Don't like, make your own. Right? Anyway, please read the tags carefully, each one of them is there for a reason. This is my first story so don't expect too much.

The Core And The Wardens of Eternity
What is the Core, they asked me... It's the light that pushes the darkness away, a bastion of justice, a safe keeper of life. It grooms love and tolerance, embraces science, fights ignorance, sentences it to die a slow and tragic death. The Core... it's something that can't be destroyed for destroying it is to terminate the time and space itself. When the stuck-in-a-dark-age world of Zanria goes offline, the Core sends one of its experienced agents to find out what is going on and to try to reestablish a mysteriously severed connection. However, all his training and experience might come way short as the world sinks in war and chaos with different races and clans fighting for the Star of Bardan, the ward rumored to possess enough supernatural power to create and destroy entire worlds. *** I just changed the name of the series, from 'the Nexus' to 'the Core'. Somehow it just sounds more right to me. This is the first story, and it has a medieval fantasy setting. But, eventually, this is going to turn into Isekai series with elements of LitRPG. So, my future books might include worlds with advanced technologies that might be more in SciFi, including Steampunk, genre. The first book might start slow, but after a few chapters, it should all be properly set up, and by then you should get the feel of how it will all flow. Also, I plan to introduce different story threats that should spread out and criss-cross in the future. Hopefully, I will not complicate it too much, and that it will all read good. I am planning to continue to add chapters to the main storyline here, but I'm also starting a new story threat in the Core series called The Recordings of Raan. There is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.
