Korean Pronoun Part 2 - I, me - 제가, 저는, 내가, 나는

**Video pending

I hope you have been keeping your motivation to learn Korean.  As I said, it feels difficult at first but that is because our brain is being fed with new information (and a lot of it!).

Learning Korean from a native speaker can often be like learning English from a native speaker (which is not a teacher) as well.  While native speakers get all the grammars perfectly well, there is a reason why language teachers are teachers, its because they know how best to explain things.  If you ask a native speaker why some things are the way they are, the answer you would probably get is, "its just is".

I'm not a (real) teacher but I would like to share what I found from my self learning when it comes to the above subject.  Even for a native speaker they would simply say, "its just is" or 그냥 (keu-nyang).


The question is, if 저 and 나 are 'I/me' and 제 and 내 are 'my/mine' in English, so why are there 제가 and 내가 and why is 저가 and 나가 not used?

If you feel that this is too long to read, you can skip everything and read paragraph*** but you probably will miss some conceptual points.  For the inspiring Korean speakers, this may be helpful.  Besides pure repetition and practise, understanding concept is best into being able to understand and remember this.  In fact, it would be helpful if one can pass it on to other new learners in the future.
