자주 묻는 질문Common questions

How do you conjugate 진압하다 in Korean?

진압하다 (to quell) is 진압하요 in the polite 해요체, 진압합니다 in formal 합니다체, 진압하 in casual 반말 and 진압한다 in the plain written style. The past is 진압핬어요.

What is the past tense of 진압하다?

진압핬어요 in everyday polite speech, 진압핬습니다 formally. It is built from the 아/어 form 진압하 plus ㅆ, which is why an irregular stem shows its irregularity here.

Is 진압하다 a regular verb?

Yes. Its stem never changes shape: 진압합니다, 진압하, 진압하니 all keep 진압하 intact. Only the ending moves.

What TOPIK level is 진압하다?

It carries no TOPIK grade. That is a fact about the published word lists rather than about the word — it conjugates by exactly the same rules as everything else.
