While traveling or even in your everyday life, there is nothing quite as annoying as a low cellphone battery. Finding a place to charge up when you’re out and about is a difficult one.
When you want to tell someone “My battery is dying,” you can say “je hyu-dae-pon bae-teo-ri-ga geo-ui eop-seo-yo.” If your cell phone ran out of battery, you can use this. “Je hyu-dae-pon bae-teo-ri-ga da na-ga-sseo-yo.”
If you need to find your nearest charging location, you can use this. “Eo-di-e-seo hyu-dae-pon chung-jeon-eul hal su i-sseo-yo?” Which means: “Where can I charge my cell phone?”
“My cell phone battery is dying.” (My battery's almost dead.) =제 휴대폰 배터리가 거의 없어요. je hyu-dae-pon bae-teo-ri-ga geo-ui eop-seo-yo. (je 제 = my (formal), hyudaepon 휴대폰 = cell phone, geo-ui eop-seo-yo 거의 없어요 = low)
“My phone ran out of battery.” (My phone died) = 제 휴대폰 배터리가 다 나갔어요. je hyu-dae-pon bae-teo-ri-ga da na-ga-sseo-yo. (je 제 = my (formal), hyudaepon 휴대폰 = cell phone, danagasseoyo 다 나갔어요 = run out of)
“Where can I charge my cell phone?” = 어디에서 휴대폰 충전을 할 수 있나요? Eo-di-e-seo hyu-dae-pon chung-jeon-eul hal su in-na-yo? (Eodieseo 어디에서 = where, hyudaepon 휴대폰 = cell phone, chung-jeon 충전 = charging, hal su in-na-yo, 할 수 있나요 = Can I)
