잊히다: Vocabulary #595

Example Sentences#

  1. 소음 속에서 잊혀진 날 찾아1
    Searching for myself, forgotten in the noise
    • 잊혀지다 is a verb formed by attaching the passive suffix -히- to the root verb 잊다 (to forget), creating the passive form 잊히다 (to be forgotten), and then adding the suffix -어지다, which indicates a gradual change or transformation and converts transitive verbs into intransitive passive forms, creating a double passive form, 잊혀지다, which is grammatically redundant but more commonly used than 잊히다.
    • -ㄴ is a past tense modifier that turns the preceding statement into a phrase describing the following noun.
