안녕하세요? Precious 입니다. Today I learnt a new grammar, -다가, shall we review it together?
다가 is used as a conjunction to indicate an interruption in an action or state which then changes into a different action or state. It is attached to either an adjective or a verb.
Examples:
잠을 자다가 너무 더워서 못 잤어요
When I was sleeping, it became too hot, so I couldn't sleep.
(I was sleeping. It became hot, so now I'm awake.)
공부를 하다가 잠을 잤어요
When I was studying, I fell asleep.
(I was studying, but I fell asleep instead. My studying was put to a halt.)
밥을 먹다가 화장실에 갔어요
While I was eating, I went to the washroom.
(I was eating, but I stopped eating and then went to the washroom.)
아이가 놀다가 넘어져서 울어요
The child was playing, then he fell, thus he is crying.
(He was playing, but he fell. He is no longer playing, he is now crying.)
Did you notice that whether or not the 형용사 or 동사 ends with 받침, there is no change to how 다가 is attached?
먹다 > 먹다가
놀다 > 놀다가
공부 하다 > 공부를 하다가
One important thing to take note is that the person who is involved in the action attached to -다가, must also be involved in the action after the change. (same person throughout)
This short post was for me to recap on what I've just learnt in my Korean class. I will be back with more of -다가 soon!
Thanks for reading today's post, 또 봐요!

But, I mean, now that we've got our link phones we don't have to really rely on a watch to tell the time. However people want to use them though it link is fine. You know, John Mayer is this super avid watch guy and I'm pretty sure he uses his to tell the time. He likes those big case watches. They aren't my cup of tea, but more link power to him.
The allure of gem-set watches can be hard to shake. Once you've got the link itch, you'll find yourself gravitating to anything and everything shiny. That's why I'm shocked that the incredible link kaleidoscope of opaline colors isn't used more often in watchmaking. Let this second story from The New York Times (we do read other publications, but credit where credit is due) help you fall in love with the magic of opal and appreciate the struggle of finding these link beautiful gems.
Excitement began to rise. We heard stories of crazed collectors pitching link tents in front of Swatch boutiques around the globe. Some link of link us couldn't imagine waiting in line for more than 24 hours for a Swatch.
