   Thank you.

—ᆸ니다 (mnida) is used after verbs and adjectives with no finals or ㄹ (l), which falls out. For example,

가— (ga-, “to go”) + —ᆸ니다 (mnida) = 갑니다 (gamnida)

알— (al-, “to know”) + —ᆸ니다 (mnida) = 압니다 (amnida)

습니다 (seumnida) is used otherwise; that is, after verbs and adjectives with finals that are not ㄹ (l). For example,

먹— (meok-, “to eat”) + —습니다 (seumnida) = 먹습니다 (meokseumnida)

• —습니다 (seumnida)
• —ᆸ니까 (mnikka)/—습니까 (seumnikka)
• —ᆸ시다 (psida)

• Japanese: ニダ (nida)
