Meaning: ๋ง “be full of”, ์ฅ “year”, ์ผ “one”, ์น “guide”
๋ง์ฅ์ผ์น (consensus) refers to a situation when all people gathered in a place are of the same opinion. ย When everybody agrees with an item, we say “๋ง์ฅ์ผ์น ์ฐฌ์ฑ (a unanimous agreement)”, on the other hand, when everybody disagrees with an item, we say “๋ง์ฅ์ผ์น ๋ฐ๋ (a unanimous disagreement)”. This word is often found in political systems or frameworks.

์ ์กฐ์ด (New Coinage)
์คํ : The proof of various abilities which job seekers have
‘์คํ’ is from the English word ‘spec’ which is the contraction of ‘specification’, and it means the characteristic, function or performance of a certain product. ย By the way, we began to use the word ‘์คํ’ as the meaning of ‘์ทจ์ ์ ์ํด ๊ฐ์ถ๊ณ ์๋ ๋ฅ๋ ฅ (ability which is needed for finding a job), by comparing the job seekers to the products as if they are the products sold to the company. ย We often say ‘์คํ์ด ์ข๋ค/๋์๋ค (spec is good/bad)’or ‘์คํ์ ์๋ค (build a spec)’, and we use it for anything needed for finding a job such as in ‘์คํ ๊ด๋ฆฌ (spec management)’, ‘์ธ๋ชจ ์คํ (appearance spec)’ and ‘ํฉ๊ฒฉ ์คํ (pass spec)’.
Lately, the word ‘์คํ’ย earned a negative meaning as people useย ‘์คํ’ for almost everything which would help with finding a job such as school ties, regionalism, blood ties and even appearance which does not have anything to do with ability or skill.
์ ๋ฅผ ๋จน๋ค (have a hard time (literally, ‘eat Ae’)) : have considerable difficulties andย feel extremely tired.
๊ด์ฉํํ (Korean Idiom)
From an old Korean saying, “์ (Ae)” literally means the “intestine”. Now, the word has come to mean “๊ทผ์ฌ์ ์ธ์ฌ ์ด์กฐํ ๋ง์์ (one’s nervous mind that is filled with worries)” and “๋ง์๊ณผ ๋ชธ์ ๋ชน์ ์๊ณ ๋ก์ (extremely tired mind and body)”. ย “์ ๋ฅผ ๋จน๋ค (to eat Ae)” means “to have considerable difficulties”, or simply put, “to do backbreaking work”. ย Because this expression is used when we arduously completed something uneasy, we need to clarify the reasons of eating Ae by using the following sentence structure: “-๋๋ฌธ์ ์ ๋ฅผ ๋จน๋ค (to eat Ae, because of something)”, “-๋๋ผ ์ ๋ฅผ ๋จน๋ค (to eat Ae when doing something)”. However, these expressions with Ae are not used with the elderly.
์๊ทธ์ ๊ฐ์๋ฐ (It is just like yesterday) : This expression means that somethingย which happened long time ago seems as if it just happened yesterday or the dayย before yesterday.
์ผ์ํํ (Korean Conversation)
When we feel like time flies, we use the expression “์๊ทธ์ ๊ฐ์๋ฐ (it seems like yesterday or the day before yesterday)”. ย It means something that happened so long ago but it seems to you that it just happened yesterday or the day before yesterday. ย It has a nuance that you feel little bit sad or surprised for the days going so quickly without noticing it.
