I'm having some trouble here.
What's the difference between
"아니다" and "않다"? And when do you use one over the other, and are they ever interchangeable?
Thanks. |

my Korean isnt so hot but maybe I can take a swipe.
아니다 I typically see as an independent word or in the begining of a phrase or sentence
않다 usually I find at the end of a phrase and/or attached to another word like:
좋아지 않다= its not good |

I've never really thought of this before, grammar isn't something you generally think of when speaking your own language..

아니다 can also mean not. ("이 가방은 파랑색이 아니다. The bag is not blue.")
...
않다 is also short form for 아니하다. a verb or adjective would come before it.
(~하지 않다)
a subject(주어) would come before 아니다.
(~이/가 아니다)
And I'm not sure how relevant this is, really, but..

OK I see. 않다 makes the preceding predicate an adverb, yes? |

adverb too, yes.
I'm honestly not sure if ALL verbs/ adjectives/ adverbs apply. I am trying my best though, by running through several common and 'unique' words of each category and making sure they make sense! |
