아버지, 땅에 왜 볏짚이 덮여 있는 거예요?
Father, why is the ground covered with straw?
저렇게 하면 추위로 인한 땅의 동결을 막을 수 있단다.
Doing that prevents the ground from freezing due to the cold.
이 계획대로 하려면 지금 있는 자금으로는 무리입니다.
If we go with this plan, the current funds won't be enough.
계획 동결을 생각할 만큼 무리인 상황입니까?
Is it so bad that we need to consider freezing the plan?
그 회사에서 사람을 작년보다 더 뽑을까요?
Do you think that company will hire more people than last year?

As of now, the hiring quota is frozen.

The tide won't come in until around tomorrow morning, so we can launch the boat then.
그럼 오늘 밤엔 섬을 빠져나갈 수가 없겠군요.
Then we can't get off the island tonight.
이번 태풍은 남부 지방에 큰 피해를 남겼습니다.
This typhoon has caused great damage to the southern region.
네. 돌풍에 대해 대비를 하지 않아 수십 채의 가옥이 지붕이 날아가는 등의 큰 피해를 입었어요.
Yes, because they weren't prepared for the squall, dozens of houses had their roofs blown off and suffered other major damage.
이 영화가 예상치 못한 돌풍을 일으키고 있다면서?
I heard this movie is causing an unexpected sensation.
응. 올해 최다 관객 수 기록을 조만간 깰 것 같아.
Yeah, it's likely to break the record for the highest attendance this year soon.
벌써 봄이 온 것 같아.
It feels like spring has already come.
응, 봄바람이 불고 새잎도 돋아나고 있어.
Yeah, the spring breeze is blowing, and new leaves are sprouting.
어서 멋진 남자가 나타나 나한테 고백을 하면 좋겠어.
I wish a handsome guy would show up and confess to me.
네가 봄바람이 들어도 단단히 들었구나.
You've really caught spring fever, haven't you?
어제 새벽에 내린 극한 폭우로 피해가 크대요.
I heard the extreme heavy rain early yesterday morning caused a lot of damage.
시골에 계신 부모님에게 먼저 연락해 보는 게 좋겠구나.
We should contact your parents in the countryside first.
지수 화 났어? 찬바람이 쌩 도네?
Is Jisu mad? There's a cold wind blowing.
내가 지수한테 잘못을 좀 했거든.
I did something wrong to Jisu.
오늘 지리 수업 시간에는 어떤 걸 배웠니?
What did you learn in today's geography class?
우리나라의 기후에 대해 배우면서 계절풍의 종류를 배웠어요.
We learned about the climate of our country and the types of monsoons.
와, 전에는 물이 탁하더니 지금은 무척 맑아졌네!
Wow, the water used to be murky, but now it's so clear!
응. 강 상류에 있던 공장이 문을 닫았거든.
Yeah. The factory upstream closed down.
날씨가 언제 맑아질까?
When will the weather clear up?
그러게. 계속 비오고 흐리네. 언제쯤 파란 하늘을 볼 수 있을지.
I know. It keeps raining and staying cloudy. I wonder when we'll see a blue sky.
언니, 이 이어폰 써 봤어? 이거 쓰니까 음색이 훨씬 더 맑아져서 들리더라.
Sis, have you tried these earphones? With these, the sound comes through much clearer.
와, 정말? 나도 써 봐야겠네.
Wow, really? I should try them too.
밖이 따뜻하니 옷을 얇게 입어도 되겠지?
It's warm outside, so I can wear thin clothes, right?
그래도 밤이 되면 추워지니까 외투를 챙겨 가지고 나가렴.
Still, it gets cold at night, so take a coat with you.
지금 밖에 눈이 많이 와?
Is it snowing a lot outside right now?
응. 게다가 눈보라도 강하게 쳐서 매우 추워.
Yeah, and the snowstorm is blowing hard too, so it's really cold.
형, 저 아파트 위에 뭐가 있는 거야?
Bro, what's that on top of that apartment building?
태양광 발전 시설이야. 태양빛으로 전기를 만드는 거지.
It's a solar power facility. It makes electricity from sunlight.

These 17 exchanges are the dictionary's own examples for the 11 ungraded words in this category — 동결, 밀물, 돌풍, 봄바람, 극한 and the rest. Each is two turns, so what you see is not only how the word is used but what it is usually said in answer to.
They are written examples rather than transcribed speech, so they are tidier than a real conversation and shorter. What they are not is translated English: they were written in Korean, by Korean lexicographers, to show how the word behaves — which is why the speech levels and the sentence endings in them are worth copying.
