Completed 100% of course

The content is good for beginners, but it is annoying that "we" is always expressed as "us". The learners and the instructor are "us", and if there is an instructor and the instructor's staff, that group is "us" from the learners' perspective. I think that grammatical errors in oral speech are a huge risk in online lectures. I believe that you will be able to achieve better results if you improve them. -------------------------- (I will add the content after completing the lecture) I polluted the course review with Dae-heon feedback on parts unrelated to the lecture, but after completing the lecture, I found the entire lecture content very helpful to me. I took this course because I wanted to reorganize the basics and get rid of the amateurish(?) feeling of learning and using gRPC as an attribute out of necessity in the field, but it helped me understand the basic concepts and elements with easy examples better than I expected, and it introduced client concurrency processing and gRPC from an MSA perspective... I'm interested in gRPC but it's vague, or I've only dealt with RESTful APIs, so I didn't really feel like I could really use gRPC, so I think this was a great course to get started on, as it reduced my resistance.

First, I will tell you that I will answer by referring to the National Institute of the Korean Language and the Standard Korean Dictionary. Hello, this is instructor Baekoblin. I will answer after checking the part you mentioned! If I check the usage examples of the information you provided, it seems that you suggested that we use the expression 'we' if the listener is included, and 'our' if not. This is one of the parts that I had a lot of trouble with when writing the script. In terms of dictionary meaning, grammar, 'we' has the following meanings. 1. "A first-person pronoun that refers to the speaker and the listener, or multiple people including the speaker and the listener" 2. "A first-person pronoun that refers to multiple people including the speaker when the speaker is not higher than them" In terms of dictionary meaning, 'we' is a polite expression for 'we'. In this case, it plays the role of a polite expression for two of the three meanings that 'we' has. When using we, it is said that the listener is honored by lowering the group to which they currently belong. Therefore, it is said that it is natural to use it when the listener is excluded from the group. The cases in which we can be used can be summarized as follows: 1. When the person being addressed is not higher than me. 2. When expressing a close relationship with oneself In the case of online lectures, the use of we and our is said to be somewhat ambiguous. In the case of the current listener, it is not guaranteed that the speaker is not higher than the listener, as in the case of teachers and students, and since an unspecified number of people can take the class, care must be taken when using expressions of equal status, However, using we lowers the group to which the speaker belongs, and since the listener is included in the class, it may not be natural because both honorific and derogatory expressions are included at the same time. However, if we organize this and think about the usage, "we" can be used when using the polite expression "our", and "our" can be used when using a more friendly and informal expression. Especially considering that in most scripts, we are used in abbreviated situations such as "our course" or "our course", it is said that the lowering of "we" is mostly an expression that lowers the course and raises the students. Thank you.

In this lecture, it is clearly correct to say "our" because it corresponds to both dictionary grammar 1 and 2. The dictionary explanation is ambiguous, but in order for us to be a polite expression, we need to assume that the listener does not belong to the group to which we belong. In other words, only when the listener does not belong to the group to which we belong and is a person of higher status than us can we use "our" to belittle the group to which we belong. Conversely, even if the listener is a person of higher status than us, if that listener is a person of higher status than us, we can only use "our". A typical example is when Koreans unconditionally refer to their home country as "our country", and since both the listener and the speaker belong to the same country, it becomes "our country" regardless of their status. A foreigner who misunderstood this as a proper noun appeared on TV and told the viewers (higher-ranking people) that his or her home country was "our country". This is an example of how referring to it as "we" can be unintentionally rude. Therefore, since the learners and the instructor are in the same boat called a specific lecture, I can cautiously confirm as one who majored in language that there is no option to be humble and can only refer to it as "we". Somehow, it became a debate on a topic that was not related to the lecture itself, but I did not intend to pick a fight. Since the expression that Koreans most often misuse is "we", which is used indiscriminately in different situations, I am absolutely not trying to point out that Baekoblin is particularly wrong. I just left feedback in the hope that you will correct the wrong expression and do better in the future, so I hope you do not think badly of it.
