    This document is a Korean language lesson about using the passive voice structure "-어 있다" to indicate something that has been put into a certain state by someone and remains in that state. It provides examples like "잡혀 있다" meaning "to be in custody, to have been caught and is still caught now". The structure expresses the resultant state of something that underwent a passive action, and is used more commonly in Korean than just the passive form alone. Sample sentences demonstrate using "-어 있다" with verbs like "열다" (to open) and "켜다" (to turn on).

    LEVEL 7 LESSON 24

    In Level 6 Lesson 21 and 23, we looked at how the passive voice works in Korean. In this lesson,

    let’s learn a structure you can use with the passive voice to say that something has been put

    into a certain state and stays that way.

    For example, the verb for “to put something somewhere” is 놓다 [no-ta]. The passive voice is 놓

    이다 [no-i-da], so you can say 놓였어요 to say “it was put down (on the table/ground/etc)”.

    Now, the following structure is used when you want to say that something is on the floor/table/

    etc, but imply that it has been put down there by someone.

    Passive Voice + -어 있다
    = to have been put into a certain state (by someone) and stay that way

    What’s the difference between “Passive Voice” and “Passive Voice + -어 있다”?

    Passive voice describes that action as it gets done, where as passive voice + -어 있다 expresses

    the state that the subject is in as a result of the passive action. This ‘resultant state’ structure is

    more commonly used in Korean than in English, so things you can express in English with just

    the passive voice are often expressed through this structure.

    Examples
    1.

    잡다 = to catch

    잡히다 = to be caught

    잡혀 있다 = to be in custody, to have been caught and is still caught now

    깨다 = to break

    깨지다 = to be broken, to get shattered

    깨져 있다 = to be in a broken state, somebody broke it and it’s still in that state

    3.

    켜다 = to turn on, to switch on

    켜지다 = to be turned on, to be switched on

    켜져 있다 = somebody turned it on and it’s still on

    4.

    쌓다 = to pile things up

    쌓이다 = to be piled up

    쌓여 있다 = to have been piled up (e.g. snow)

    5.

    열다 = to open

    열리다 = to get opened

    열려 있다 = to have been opened and stay open

    **Note that you can’t use this structure with transitive verbs.
