- ‘아다가/어다가/해다가’is a connecting ending that connects two sentences.
- It is used to indicate that you are doing something first and then doing the next action with the object of the first action.
- It is usually used when the place where the previous action and the next action took place are different.
Let's look at some examples.
- Example Sentences

1) 도서관에서 책을 빌려요. (I borrow a book from the library.)
2) 그리고 집에서 그 책을 읽을 거예요. (And I will read the book at home.)
