-(으)ㄹ 만하다

Worth doing

intermediate

Expresses that something is worth doing or has enough value to be done. The bound noun 만 indicates "extent/degree" and combined with 하다 creates this evaluative expression.

  • Evaluation: "볼 만해요" (It's worth watching)
  • Recommendation: "이 책은 읽을 만합니다" (This book is worth reading)
  • Can also express "tolerable": "참을 만해요" (It's bearable)
