오늘은 영어 수업을 듣는데 알게된 것이 있어서
여기에 그걸 정리해 볼까 합니다.
Grateful vs Thankful은 좀 헷갈리는 단어인데요
오늘 배운 걸 기준으로 정리해 볼까요
1. Grateful
We use grateful to talk about how we feel when someone is kind to us or does us a favor. For example, [a message on a thank-you card] or [at the end of a formal letter]
Grateful은 누군가가 나를 위해 친절을 베풀어 준 경우나 상대방이 나의 부탁을 들어 준 경우에 사용하는 느낌이네요
Thank you so much for helping us move house. We are so grateful.
Love
Mark and Rose
I would be very grateful if you could send me more information about your company for my school project.
2. Thankful
We usually use thankful when we are relieved that something unpleasant or dangerous didn’t happen
Thankful은 뭔가 불행한 일이나 위험한 일이 나한테 발생하지 않아 감사하는 마음으로 얘기하는 경우에 사용한다고 하네요.
– I heard you were in an accident. Are you okay?
I’m fine. There was some damage to the car. I’m just thankful that no one was injured.
Have you already know the difference between “grateful” and “thankful“? Don’t worry, I prepare a quiz for you👇it is time to show yourself!
