- Korean
보고 싶다 = “보다” + “-고 싶다”
보다 means “see”
보고 싶다 can translate to “want to see” but, generally speaking, it means “miss”

-고 싶다 means "want to do something" 보 comes from 보다 means see, to say "I want to see" you take the "다" from the verb and just let 보.
보고 싶다. I want to see (someone or something) but 보고 싶다 also mean "I miss you"
