Which words should be used to express 'very' in Korean?
I'm aware that there are a number of Korean words which have the meaning of 'very'. For ex. 아주, 너무, 매우, etc.
I just wonder which words are considered as the 'academic' words that native speakers should use in writing.
As for me, I usually use 매우 because I have a feeling that other words shouldn't use in writing. Am I correct?
Thank you so much for your wise advice in advance.

Answer

in slang, u can use "존나", it means fuxking.

fuxking good! 존나 좋아! funxking bad! 존나 싫어!

Answer

A long-time learner myself, I see 매우 as a written equivalent of 아주. 너무 seems to be a colloquial word for 'too'. To express that something is excessive, I would rather use 과도하게, 과잉...etc depending on the context. Hope the natives will correct me if I'm wrong.

Answer

I heard the dialect expression 금나게 (not sure about the correct spelling) quite often, but do not know if this is used by young people as well. I would guess rather not.
