Korean Past Tense- Conjugating (ha-da) Verbs/ 하다 Verbs

WATCH THE LESSON: https://youtu.be/FLoqCK04y8E
This video is on how to conjugate HA-DA verbs into the past tense. Korean has three types of verbs and videos for the other two types are linked in the description. Ha-da verbs are easily identifiable because their infinitive form ends in ha-da. These verbs are very common. Ha-da means "to do" so you can add it onto the end of many nouns to make them into verbs. When we are making the past tense we change that ha-da ending into
했어 to make the casual form
했어요 to make the polite form
했습니다 to make the formal form
if you're not familiar with the concept of casual polite and formal language I have a video on that in the description.
We now have our past tense of to do... did.
Now you can make sentences by putting a noun in front and adding a subject marker. if you need a lesson on what a subject marker is and how to use it there is a video in the description. Here are some example sentences in the casual form, polite form, and formal form.
I did. 나는 했어. 저는 했어요. 저는 했습니다.
We did. 우리는 했어. 저희는 했어요. 저희는 했습니다.
Those people did. 그사람들은 했어. 그사람들은 했어요. 그사람은 했습니다.
Mom did. 엄머는 했어. 엄머니는 했어요. 엄머니는 했습니다.
Pikachu did. 피카츄는 했어. 피카츄는 했어요. 피카츄는 했습니다.

and like I said ha-da is the verb "to do" and it can also be the ending of many more verbs. Like these ones.

Try conjugating a few of them if you like and check your answers in the description. That's all for now my fellow students. Thank you for studying with me.
