>> CORRECT
1. What is the difference between ‘keep’ and ‘keep up’?
1. What is the difference between ‘keep’ and ‘keep up’?
If you mean just for simple comparison, like in this sentences:
She keeps hiding my charger. = ( usually followed by a verb)
She needs to keep up with the latest technology. = (usually followed by \'with\' + object)
>> The word \'keep\' has so many meanings depending on the sentence.
examples:
Keep the change. = (to hold in your possession)
Keep yourself warm. = ( to continue in the same situation for a long time)
I keep my keys in the drawer. = (put/store things somewhere)
Now, if we add a preposition after \'keep\', the meaning totally changes. They are called phrasal verbs.
examples:
Keep up the good work. = ( continue doing well)
I can\'t keep up with my brother\'s running speed. = ( maintain a rate or pace with someone)
We need to keep up with the latest technology. = ( be updated with the changes)
2. Do I have to add an ‘s’ after ‘[이름]ute’ when it\'s ‘number + [이름]ute’?
-> ex) 30 [이름]utes, 1 [이름]utes, 10 [이름]utes, 25 [이름]utes
example:
I finished a 25-[이름]ute class. ( notice that there is an object after [이름]ute, so it is used as an adjective)
I studied for 25 [이름]utes. ( talks about the length/how long someone studied)
