Guessing & Intentions

"It seems like..." and "I'm planning to..." — one of these is built entirely from yesterday's modifier forms, so this lesson is lighter than it looks.

Before you start

Reusing what you just built

것 (thing) + 같다 (to be like) = "it's like the thing that..." — and "the thing that..." is exactly Lesson 17's modifier system.

올 것 같아요

-(으)ㄹ / -(으)ㄴ 것 같아요

Future modifier for a guess about what's coming; past modifier for a guess about what already happened. Same shapes as Lesson 17, new job.

가려고 해요

-(으)려고 해요

"Planning to / intend to." Simple batchim rule, no contractions — safe to use with any verb, vowel-ending or not.
