짐을 여기 맡겨도 돼요?

When to use

Use this when you need to store your bags at the hotel, perhaps before check-in or after check-out, to allow for sightseeing or other activities.

How it works

This is a polite informal question using the '-아/어도 돼요?' construction for permission. '짐' (luggage) is the object, '여기' (here) is the location, and '맡기다' (to entrust/leave) is the action.

• 짐을: 'Luggage' (짐) followed by the object particle '을'.
• 여기: 'Here', indicating the location where the action takes place.
• 맡겨도 돼요?: 'Can I leave (it)?' This construction combines the verb stem '맡기-' with '-아/어도 되다' (to be allowed to, to be okay to) and the polite question ending '-어요?'.

Speech Level and Omission

The '-돼요?' ending indicates the polite informal speech level. The subject 'I' (저는) is omitted, which is common in Korean when the speaker is clearly the one asking for permission.

Pronunciation tip

In '맡겨도 돼요', the 'ㅌ' batchim of '맡' neutralizes to a 'ㄷ' sound. When this 'ㄷ' sound is followed by '겨', the 'ㄱ' of '겨' tensifies to 'ㄲ', and the 'ㄷ' sound is often weakened or omitted, resulting in [마껴도 돼요].

Notes

Ask if you can store your luggage at the hotel, typically before check-in or after check-out.
