how to say "it's not working!" in korean
I want to know how to say "it's not working" for situation that something is not function.
For example.
Im using subway pass card but it's not scanning. I would say "it's not working".
Or I'm using vending machine or some machine that won't function I would say "it's not working"

"it's not working!"
- it is: 그것(it) + 이(subject marker) -> 그게 (contracted from); 이것(this) + 이 -> 이게.
(If something won't work, it is likely to be close by, so 이게 is usual)
- not: 1) 안 + verb (short form); 2) verb + ~지 않다 (long form) - both forms are in wide use.
- work: 작동하다, 작동을 하다(formal); 되다(informal).
So we can say:
- 이게 안 돼요 / 이게 안 되는데요. (most common) * 돼요 = 되어요. * ~데요: colloquial smooth ending.
- 이게 되질 않아요. (using the long form negation)
- 이게 작동(을) 안 해요.
In addition, you can also be more specific about it:
- 이게 스캔이 안 돼요 (It won't scan).
- 이게 들어가질 않아요 (It won't go in).
- 이게 반응이 없네요 (It won't respond).
