-Notes: Certain types of words can be placed before nouns to describe them. For example, adjectives can be placed before nouns to describe them (for example: a pretty girl). 이 is a type of word called a “관형사,” which isn’t an adjective, but is another type of word that can be placed before nouns to describe them. In English, “관형사” translates to a “modifier” or “a determiner.” 이 is placed before nouns within reaching distance to indicate that one is talking about “this” specific thing. For example:

+Certain types of words can be placed before nouns to describe them. For example, adjectives can be placed before nouns to describe them (for example: a pretty girl). 이 is a type of word called a “<TTS>관형사</TTS>,” which isn’t an adjective, but is another type of word that can be placed before nouns to describe them. In English, “관형사” translates to a “<span class="md spoiler">modifier</span>” or “<span class="md spoiler">a determiner</span>.” 이 is placed before nouns within reaching distance to indicate that one is talking about “this” specific thing. For example:
+
+- <TTS>이 사람</TTS> = <span class="md spoiler">this person</span>
 
 Other examples of determiners in Korean (and English) are:
 
-그 사람 = that person
-모든 사람 = all people
-어떤 사람 = which person
+- <TTS>그 사람</TTS> = <span class="md spoiler">that person</span>
+- <TTS>모든 사람</TTS> = <span class="md spoiler">all people</span>
+- <TTS>어떤 사람</TTS> = <span class="md spoiler">which person</span>
 
 It is easy to distinguish between a determiner and an adjective in Korean. Although both placed before nouns to “describe” them, the dictionary (ordinary) form of an adjective always ends in ~다 and must change in order to describe them. For example, 예쁘다 changes to 예쁜 when placed before a noun to describe it (See Lesson 3 for more information). Determiners keep their original form when placed before a noun. This might be too much grammar for you at this point, but make a note of it.
 
 Example:
-**이** 차는 너무 비싸요 = **This** car is too expensive
-**이** 방은 넓습니다 = **This** room is big/wide
-저는 **이** 영화를 더 이상 보고 싶지 않아요 = I don’t want to watch **this** movie anymore
-**이** 고기는 돼지고기입니다 = **This** meat is pork
-**이** 사람은 저의 누나예요 = **This** (person) is my sister

 그 and 저 both translate to “that.” This often causes confusion for English speakers.
 
 Also notice that “저” has more than one meaning. Earlier, you saw that “저” means “I/me.” Welcome to the world of Korean! Where often times one word has more than one meaning.
