    1. Hi 태디미,

      들 is used for plural nouns.

      Example, 사람 = person, 사람들 = people

      집 = house, 집들 = houses.

      However, 들 can also be used when you're talking to people (rather than one person)

      For example,
      안녕하세요 = hello (polite, to one person or people)
      안녕들하세요 = hello (polite, to people(more than one person))

      However, 들 is not used that often because it can sound quite blunt and it doesn't sound quite polite.

      You may hear it in dramas where labour workers are about to have a lunch break, and one person may shout to other people, "점심들 먹고 하죠. = Let's have lunch and then do (the rest of the work), shall we?"

      But again, you may hear it in dramas but I wonder whether it's used that often in real life. But it'd be good to know, anyway, :)

      Hope this helps!

    2. I meant "들 is not used that often when used in the above sense"

      들 is used frequently when it's just used to make a noun plural.

  9. 안녕하세요

    when we conjugate “이다” it will change to “ 이에요 “ for nouns with a final consonant like저는 학생이에요, and “예요” for nouns without a final consonant but why in저는 루크에요 and앤드류는 의사에요 it ends with ”에요” not”예요”?

    고맙습니다
