일하다 conjugation

The polite forms end in 요 and suit most conversations; the formal form is for announcements, presentations and first meetings. The same form works for I, you, she or they.

How 일하다 conjugates

1. Find the stem. Take 다 off 일하다 and you are left with 일하.
2. Apply the 하다 pattern. 하 becomes 해 before an ending. That gives 일해요.
3. Build the rest on it. The past tense adds ㅆ to the same base, giving 일했어요, and the table above has the future and the formal form.

Using 일하다

일 (work) + 하다. 어디에서 일해요? = Where do you work?
