Description

Noun + 과 and Noun + 와 ; This is a cunjunction, which connects 'noun' and 'noun or 'noun phrase' and 'noun phrase'. Same with 'and' in English but '-과' and '-와' are used only to connect nouns and noun phrases. This meaning can also sometimes mean 'with' as in '삼촌과 살아요' (I live with my uncle). In spoken language, however, people prefer using '-(이)랑' to using '-과' and '-와'.
