Is there a word similar to "even" used as an adverb?
Hi All

In english there is a specific use for the "even" to really stress or really intensify the truth about something. In this form, "even" is an adverb.

E.g.
1) We don't even talk anymore.
2) He is crazy, even psychotic.

Is there a word or particle that is used for the same purpose? And can you write in hangul, with the two example sentences?

Thanks!In english there is a specific use for the word "even" to really stress or really intensify the truth about something. In this form, "even" is an adverb.

Sorry about the typo!

Answer

In the first example, you can use "-도", as the above answerers say. I've personally never used "심지어" in speaking.

In the second... I think you can use "완전". Its literal meaning is "perfectness" and it can stand for "완전히" in a sense, but I see people say it to put emphasis on what they say. If you don't think it's similar to "even", unfortunately, there's nothing you can pick up. 
2) 걔 미쳤어, 완전 사이코야.

Answer

Or you can also use "심지어". 
"~도" and "까지" is more natural way to say "even", but if you wanna know an exact word which is similar to "even", that word is "심지어". 
When you use "심지어", it is more natural using with "~도" or "까지". 

1) We don't even talk anymore. 우린 심지어 더이상 말도 안해. 

2) He is crazy, even psychotic. 그는 미쳤어, 심지어 싸이코 같아. 
(in this case, it's hard to translate to Korean. my translation is "He is crazy, he seemed even psychotic.)

Answer

Well... sometimes direct translation from English to Korean may not match nicely in terms of the meanings of the sentences. Maybe the nearest particle to use in this case is "도". In some cases, you may also use "까지".

For example,
1) We don't even talk anymore. --- 우리 이제 말도 안해. (informal conversational)
2) He is crazy, even psychotic. --- 그는 미친놈 이야.. 싸이코까지... (i.e. He is a crazy man, till the extent of being psychotic)
