건가요 is colloquail form of 것인가요 것인가요? is interrogative form of 것이다 여기서 드실 건가요? = (확실한 것은) 여기서 드실 것인가요? Are you sure that you will eat it here? 것 means "thing". It can be mean a real object, situation or action. 것이다 literally means "to be thing". Commonly translated as "it's that" It usually used like (으)ㄴ 것이다 (past tense) 는 것이다 (present tense) (으)ㄹ 것이다 (future tense) 1. Real object usage 그 사과는 내가 먹은 것이다 That apple is that I ate. 그 사과는 내가 먹는 것이다 That apple is that I am eating. 그 사과는 내가 먹을 것이다 That apple is that I will eat. 2. Situation, action (사실은) 그가 이 책을 빌린 것이다. The fact is that he borrowed this book. 내가 가장 좋아하는 것은 영화를 보는 것이다. My favorite thing is watching movies (확실한 것은) 나는 오늘 이 책을 그에게 줄 것이다. It's certain that I will give him this book today.
