V/A+ 어/아/여.
It is the informal speech form for ‘V/A+ 어요/아요/여요.’ in a declarative sentence. If the word ‘요’ is skipped, usually used as a sign of respect, it becomes the informal speech form. (e.g. 할게요→할게, 하는데요→하는데 (do))
When the action or descriptive verb stem ends in a vowel other than ‘ㅏ,ㅑ,ㅗ’, use ‘어’, and when it ends in ‘ㅏ,ㅑ,ㅗ’, use ‘-아’. When it ends in ‘-하다’, use ‘-여’.
