In Korean we have these conjugated forms. They both sound the same:
[na.a](from 낫다) be/become better[na.a](from 낳다) give birth (to a baby)So when given A as an example:
(A) 감기에 걸렸어요. I got a cold.
(B) 빨리 나으세요! Hope you get better soon!
(C) 빨리 낳으세요! Hope you give birth soon!
For some reason Koreans across all ages write C instead of B by mistake. It became a national joke at this point and some do it ironically on purpose. I used to teach Korean. Imagine my face every time.
There are more but I'm on my phone. Will do more later.
the laguage is evolving, don't stop it grow
