“Want to” ~고 싶다 & ~래(요) | Live Class Abridged

During my most recent Korean class we talked about the forms ~고 싶다 and ~래(요). These forms can both mean “want to,” but are used in completely different ways. ~고 싶다 is used to express a simple desire for something you want to do, while ~래(요) implies that you’re going to actually do that.

The full live stream was over an hour long, but you can learn about these forms in my abridged version which is just under 10 minutes.
