| Notes | The core pattern -(으)면 좋다 (literally 'it would be good if ...') attaches to adjective and verb stems. It is primarily used in expressions of hope or wish where it corresponds to 'I wish/hope ...'. The addition of other principles modifies the primary meaning to match the connotation. When a wish or hope is related to the past situation or to a far-fetched future state of affairs, the -았/었으면 좋- version with the past tense modifier is used. The addition of -겠- in -(았/었)으면 좋겠- makes the wish more emphatic. -(았/었)으면 좋겠- also takes on the meaning of 'shall' (for example, in some questions); the pattern can be used in indirect obligations. |
