첫댓글They say English is Noun oriented Language but Korean is not. So there are lots of great expressions of Noun-vocabulary in English. On the other hand there are enormous adjective- vocabulary in Korean. But these days Korean is influenced by English. Noun oriented expressions are increased rapidly. For example " Have a nice day!" equals " 즐거운 하루 되세요" I think this Korean sentence is grammatically and logically wrong. But it is generalized in Korea.

Yes, english is noun-oriented language and korean is preicate one.
Therefore "즐거운 하루 보내세요' is right, said Mr. Lee(이수열 선생님)
