네 and 아니요 are the most common answers in Korean they are both 존댓말. But often, 네 and 아니요
are used to express agreement and disagreement.
For example, if someone asks you if don’t you like coffee, and you don’t like coffee, your answer must
include ‘네’ because you agree with the statement/question that you do not like coffee.
SAMPLE CONVERSATION:
네 in Korean can also become a question and mean something similar to ‘what’. If you ask ‘네?’ in
Korean, you are asking something similar to ‘pardon?’
Example:
맞아요 – Right
This expressions comes from the verb 맞다, which means to be right/correct. It can be used as a
question and a statement – it is also a form of letting the speaker know you’re actively listening.
