"무슨" is a Korean word that translates to "what" in English. It is commonly used to ask questions about things, objects, or situations. For example, when someone wants to know what kind of food is being served, they might ask, "무슨 음식이에요?" which means "What food is it?" In addition to its use in questions, "무슨" can also express uncertainty or a lack of specificity. For instance, if someone is unsure about a particular event, they might say, "무슨 일이 있어요?" meaning "What is happening?" This versatility makes "무슨" an essential part of everyday conversation in the Korean language.
