“We would like to inform you…” in Korean
불가피한 사정으로 회의가 연기되었음을 알려 드립니다
bulgapihan sajeongeuro hoeuiga yeongidoeeosseumeul allyeo deurimnida
Meaning
We would like to inform you that the meeting has been postponed due to unavoidable circumstances.
Usage note
The nominalizing ending -음 turns a clause into a noun, so “-음을 알려 드립니다” means “we hereby inform you that…”, a fixed pattern in official notices and internal memos. 불가피하다 means “unavoidable”.
Romanization follows the Revised Romanization system and is a guide to pronunciation.
