Did you know?
- The word 붙이다 in 붙여넣기 is a homonym with a word meaning 'to light' a fire or a candle.
- In digital contexts, the opposite of 붙여넣기 is 잘라내기 which literally translates to 'cutting out' like using scissors.
- While 붙여넣기 is used for digital 'paste', the English word 'paste' can also mean a soft food. In Korean, if you want to refer to a thick, soft food paste like miso or peanut butter, you would use the word 페이스트 (pe-i-seu-teu) or more commonly 반죽 (ban-juk).
