-던가 등에 쓰이거나 grammar
I have a question.
보통 무섭다라는것은 귀신(Ghost)을 본다던가 등에 쓰이거나
I understand what this sentence means. It means "Usually 무섭다 is used when you see a ghost or smth (in this kind of situations)".
But still I have some question. Could you explain me the point of ' ...던가 등에 쓰이거나'? Ending 거나 I see for the first time.

Привет.
~거나 : a conjuntional ending : или
또는 : a conjuntion : или
There are two ways to connect two clauses or sentences in korean language.
Using a conjuntional ending 거나 (또는) using a conjuntion word.
Sometime both are used together to emphasize the next sentence.
