변화 · 상태 정리 — change and state review — it got …, I came to …, it is (still) …, and I did it ready for later

Change and state review — it got …, I came to …, it is (still) …, and I did it ready for later. Korean grammar for upper beginner learners — Level 2B, lesson 12: 2급 정리 · TOPIK I 맛보기 (Level 2 round-up — a taste of TOPIK I).

What it means

Level 2B gave you two ways to talk about change and two ways to talk about how things are now. A-아/어지다 (2B-1) turns an adjective into a change: 더워요 'it's hot' → 더워졌어요 'it has got hot'; 익숙해졌어요 'I've got used to it'. V-게 되다 (2B-1) says something came about — often not by your own plan, or little by little: 매운 음식을 잘 먹게 됐어요 'I've come to eat spicy food well', 다음 학기에 3급에서 공부하게 됐어요. -아/어 있다 (2B-9) says the result of an action is still there: 문이 열려 있어요 'the door is open', 의자에 앉아 있어요 'is sitting'. Keep it apart from -고 있다, an action going on: 문을 열고 있어요 'is opening the door'. -아/어 놓다 (2B-6) says you did something in advance and left it that way for later: 음료수를 사 놓았어요 (in speech often 사 놨어요). -아/어지다, -아/어 있다 and -아/어 놓다 follow 아/어 like -아요/어요; -게 되다 just adds 게 to the stem.
