개 in front of adejctives Hello! I don't really think that this is an appropriate question but I don't really have whom to ask for an answer. I've seen/heard (quite rarely though) that sometimes Koreans use the word "개" in front of an adjective and some examples that come to my mind are: "개 이쁘네"; "개 맛있어" I've always thought that it's some kind of a swearing? ( I always saw/heard it in a colloquial language) like how in English we say f** beautiful/perfect etc. But it's been on my mind a lot lately and I wonder about its real meaning. If it is a swear word(?) I'm really really sorry for being inappropriate but yet again, I don't have anyone who can explain it to me. Thank you in advance!

In Korean dictionary, [개-] means 1.'야생 상태의' 또는 '질이 떨어지는', '흡사하지만 다른' 뜻을 더하는 접두사(wild,fake) ex) 빛좋은 개살구, 개떡 2. '헛된', ' 쓸데없는'의 뜻을 더하는 접두사(Useless, vain) ex)개소리, 개꿈 3. '정도가 심한'의 뜻을 더하는 접두사(hard, extreme) ex)개망나니, 개고생 In the examples like "개 이쁘네"; "개 맛있어" , 개 is used as the meaning of number 3(very, extremely) This adverbial 개 is mostly used by teenagers. It is not a swear word but slang between teenagers.

You can consider it as the perfect equivalence to [fu**ing] in English, with the only difference it being in no way (sexually) offending. (No [beep] required) It is supposed to remind of cute puppies instead, and it absolutely doesn't have anything to do with swearing or dog meats.
