But then .. one day .. my phone did not recognize my fingerprints..
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.12.

Kate쌤2020.12.12.

[오전 12:31]

@영어감자🥔 Sarah
Too bad it didn't end up being in my place
Kate쌤2020.12.12.
btw .. 별이 lovesssss the couch(수정됨)
[오전 12:32]
Last time she was at my place, she chose the couch over her cozy tent
2
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.12.
Yeah ... that's why it should be in my place
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.12.
so, she chooses the couch over you?
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.12.
so, she chooses the couch over you?
@에릭쌤 👑 haha probably
Kate쌤2020.12.12.
she chose to sit WITH ME on the couch
[오전 12:33]
She knows I can't fit in that tent
@영어감자🥔 Sarah
Yeah ... that's why it should be in my place
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.12.
your place is too small for the couch. we should bring it to the office where there is enough space
1
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.12.
She loves ur place
Kate쌤2020.12.12.
Umm... Eric.. I don't think this place is spacious anymore haha
@영어감자🥔 Sarah
She loves ur place
Kate쌤2020.12.12.
She does, doesn't she?
[오전 12:33]
I'm glad she does
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.12.
your place is too small for the couch. we should bring it to the office where there is enough space
@에릭쌤 👑 my place is perfect.. the office needs a bigger one
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.12.
yeah, it used to look so big, now, it is soooo tiny
Kate쌤2020.12.12.

But I wouldn't say it's spacious either
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.12.

에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
[오전 11:01]
Personally, i do PASSIVE FORM(수동태) from time to time
[오전 11:02]
but it seems like some people are bothered by passive form being used (일부러 동명사 의미상의 주어에 수동태 넣어서 영작해드림, HOW CONSIDERATE OF ME!) when I speak Korean
[오전 11:03]
and just for the record, PASSIVE FORM is used very very often in English
[오전 11:03]
so, this is what i wanted to ask you
[오전 11:03]
how much does ME USING PASSIVE FORM bother you? and please be honest
[오전 11:04]
물론 문장 따라 느낌이 다를순 있을듯 합니다만
[오전 11:04]
1 It doesn't bother me at all
37
6
[오전 11:04]
2 It sounds a little unnatural. I don't use it but I don't mind other people using it
19
[오전 11:05]
3 It sounds quite awkward. It kind of bothers me
3
[오전 11:06]
4 It sounds really unnatural. It makes you think my Korean is terrible
2
[오전 11:06]
ok, let me know, guys
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
Ok .. so .. now there are more than 1000 covid 19 cases in this country ....
[오후 10:49]
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
this is INSANE
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
and apparently .. the country's running out of hospital beds for patients ...
[오후 10:50]
it's seriously insane ..
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
so... have they officially announced level 3?
@영어감자🥔 Sarah
and apparently .. the country's running out of hospital beds for patients ...
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
yeah, that's what i heard..
@Kate쌤
so... have they officially announced level 3?
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
i don't think they have yet
[오후 10:51]
but there is a good possibility that they will
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
I know that the government has elevated the social distancing level to 2.5 .. but I really feel like we need to strengthen the rules
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
Wow..
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
sometimes, i wish i was the president
1
[오후 10:52]
LOL
@Kate쌤
so... have they officially announced level 3?
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
maybe in 경기 province? but i'm not 100% sure
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
lol
and how would you do things differently?
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
yeah, what would happen in level 3?
[오후 10:53]
are we all grounded?
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
I guess you could say that
[오후 10:55]
2.5 and 3 are completely different
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
I mean .. it's just so unfair .. you know ..
some people are being extra cautious to make the situation better .. whereas others are out partying.. gathering at churches ..
Some just don't even seem to care much about social distancing at all!
1
1
1
[오후 10:56]
It's very very annoying ..
[오후 10:57]
i mean .. some of us are starting to have cabin fever being stuck at home!!!
1
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
make me the president of this country
[오후 10:57]
i'll make things right
1
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
This lack of awareness....
[오후 10:57]
It's just so depressing
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.

@에릭쌤 👑

영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.

에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
i can't even imagine what i would do with SUCH POWER...
@영어감자🥔 Sarah
what's gonna happen to small businesses when the government elevates the social distancing level to 3 ... man ..
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
yeah, i feel sorry for small business owners
[오후 11:00]
i was thinking about the kindergarten my kids go to
[오후 11:01]
i was like "what about all the money that they are NOT making for a month?"
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
small businesses, big businesses, .. all going through incredible crisis ..
I mean .. what the hell is going on ..
에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
i hope the 원장님 is loaded or sth
Kate쌤2020.12.13.

에릭쌤 👑2020.12.13.
who would have ever imagined this Covid stuff would last this long?
1
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
Well ... the only thing we can rely on is the vaccine and the cure
영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
I know .. I never expected this to last THIS long
1
Kate쌤2020.12.13.
At the beginning the media used to report that this would at least last 3 years

영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
It's been almost a year.. almost a whole freakin' year
[오후 11:04]

[오후 11:04]

영어감자🥔 Sarah2020.12.13.
