안녕하세요 여러분! Koreanstudyjunkie에서 Junie입니다~

In this lesson, we’ll break each piece apart and learn how they function. We’ll also learn how to put them together to make useful phrases. You can scroll down to the bottom to juml straight into 에서/ 부터 ~ 까지.

Noun-에서 = From

Examples:

Where are you from?

영국에서 왔어요.

어느 나라에서 왔어요?

Noun-부터 = from, since

에서 & 부터 can be used interchangeably.

However it is known that 부터 is USUALLY used with time and 에서 USUALLY with places.

Noun-까지 = until, to, by

에서 and 부터 could be used interchangeably. Although 에서 is used mainly with locations and 부터 with times
