@Seoulight woah I didn’t even know what erroneous meant😳 you’re teaching me korean AND English. That’s lit 😌👌

I really like this question. There are so many words that seem like to have similar meaning, but completely not interchangable for each other.
I recently questioned about the difference between reinforce and enhance, which are the same meaning when they are translated into Korean.

@jbg1324 yess you’re right! I also realized there is 고치다 and 수리하다 as well. They’re close to having the same meaning but are still different 😂😂
- Korean
yeah both 고치다 and 수리하다 are able to be used with 기계, like 기계를 고치다, 기계를 수리하다. but not with 문장. like 문장을 고치다 (o) , 문장을 수리하다(x). what the hell!

- Korean
간단히 설명하면
(글 문장)수정하다
(법) 개정하다
(말을) 정정하다
바꾸다 = change
바꾸다는 어디에나 쓸수있어요
