You already know 24 letters, 11 more vowels, and 26 words. Today those words become real sentences — using just three small particles and three simple patterns.
Korean sentences follow one big rule, plus the same batchim logic you already learned in Lesson 2 — just applied to whole words instead of single letters.
English says "I like water." Korean says "I water like" — 저는 물을 좋아해요. The verb always comes last.
A short syllable attached to a noun tells you whether it's the topic, the subject, or the object — and which one to use depends on batchim, exactly like Lesson 2.

All three follow the exact same rule: if the word ends in a batchim, use the left column; if it ends in an open vowel, use the right column.
Attach 이에요 (after batchim) or 예요 (after a vowel) directly to a noun to say what something is.
💡 이것 ("this thing") is only for objects. For a person, say 이 사람 ("this person") instead — never 이것.
Mark the noun with 이/가, then add 있어요 (there is) or 없어요 (there isn't).
저는 (as for me) + noun + 을/를 + 좋아해요 (like). Pick any word below and watch the particle choose itself.
