Common questions

How do you conjugate 역겹다 in Korean?

역겹다 (disgusting) is 역겨워요 in the polite 해요체, 역겹습니다 in formal 합니다체, 역겨워 in casual 반말 and 역겹다 in the plain written style. The past is 역겨웠어요.

What is the past tense of 역겹다?

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

Is 역겹다 irregular?

Yes — it is ㅂ irregular (ㅂ 불규칙). ㅂ becomes 우 before a vowel: 춥다 → 추워요. That is why the stem looks different in 역겨워 and 역겨우니 but unchanged in 역겹습니다.
