@2z0121 why does your one example have 가 at the end of 도대체? Does 도대체 function as the subject?
- Korean
Nope! 도대체 doesn't mean why.
도대체 is use to emphasize negative sentences. So it has a higher urgency.(maybe..)
Not swearing.
도대체 doesn't function as the subject. (We're doing it.. Haha..)
가 used to emphasize the 도대체.
But it is very very weak.
