안녕하세요 여러분~!
It feels like I haven't made any Korean learning videos in forever! I've been so preocupied with university work and my other YouTube projects that I feel I totally abandoned our ~Weekly Korean~ videos *cries*
However, I'm back on track and ready to bombard you with intense Korean learning vids! But seriously, get ready. These won't be easy.
Meaning #1: when ~(으)로 is added at the end of a noun, it indicates by what method/device/process/tool/material something is made or accomplished.
Transportation:

다른 단어 (Other words you can substitute for "taxi"):

Language:

*~으로 is added to nouns that end on a consonant and ~로 is added to nouns ending on a vowel AND the letter ㄹ, creating an 'L' sound.
Meaning #2: ~(으)로 can also indicate a general direction of where the talker is headed. It sometimes can be a synonym of the ~에 particle.
오른쪽으로 갔어요- I went to the right (Literal: I went in the right direction)
어디로 가겠어요? - Where are you planning on going (very general)
서울로 갈거예요 - I will go to Seoul (Literal: I will go in the general direction of Seoul)
Difference between 로 and 에:
집으로 갈 거예요-- I'll go in the general direction of home, whereas 집에 갈 거예요 -- I will go home
집 안 쪽으로 달렸어요 -- I ran inside the house (from the outside), whereas 집 안에서 달렸어요 -- I was running inside the house (without going outside of it)
