(Because it’s easy to overeat when you eat your favorite food, I decided to drink a glass of water before eating.)

Note:

(Because I’m studying now, I don’t want to talk to you.)

This grammar particle has the same meaning with that of 때문에 and -아/어서. While they all mean the same when translated in English, remember that 때문에 is only attached to nouns while 기 때문에 is attached to verbs and adjectives. Further, when it comes to meaning, 때문에 expresses a short answer, -아/어서 provides a detailed answer, and 기 때문에 kind of gives a background (the reason) for the next statement.

• 겠 is attached to verbs to indicate the speaker’s will or intention to carry out the action.

• In English, it corresponds to WILL.

(Hello, please deliver one pizza for me)

(Okay, I will leave in 15 minutes.)

저는

(I will never give up on my dream until the end.)
