How do you say something is short or long in Korean?
Let's say I wanted to say long socks and short socks would I 반 or 긴 infront of 양말? 반 being short and 긴 being long.
Thank you!

Question

Answer

To be short is 짧다. to be long is 길다. The 반 you're referring to, as in the word 반바지 (shorts) does not mean short but half. So 반바지 = half pants.

However you can't say 반양말 (half socks), short socks are 짧은 양말, long socks are 긴 양말.
