Common questions

How do you conjugate 무안하다 in Korean?

무안하다 (to be embarrassed) is 무안해요 in the polite 해요체, 무안합니다 in formal 합니다체, 무안해 in casual 반말 and 무안하다 in the plain written style. The past is 무안했어요.

What is the past tense of 무안하다?

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

Is 무안하다 irregular?

Yes — it is 여 irregular (여 불규칙). 하다 and every verb built on it: 하다 → 하여 → 해요. That is why the stem looks different in 무안하여 and 무안하니 but unchanged in 무안합니다.

What TOPIK level is 무안하다?

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.
