How do I Say and Write
"Tell" in Korean?

Pronunciation : Tell
Part of Speech : v.
Etymology : [AS. tellan, from talu tale, number, speech; akin to D. tellen to count, G. z?hlen, OHG. zellen to count, tell, say, Icel. telja, Dan. tale to speak, t?lle to count. See Tale that which is told.]
Definition : 1. To mention one by one, or piece by piece; to recount; to enumerate; to reckon; to number; to count; as, to tell money. "An heap of coin he told." Spenser. He telleth the number of the stars. Ps. cxlvii. 4. Tell the joints of the body. Jer. Taylor.

2. To utter or recite in detail; to give an account of; to narrate. Of which I shall tell all the array. Chaucer. And not a man appears to tell their fate. Pope.

3. To make known; to publish; to disclose; to divulge. Why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife Gen. xii. 18.

4. To give instruction to; to make report to; to acquaint; to teach; to inform. A secret pilgrimage, That you to-day promised to tell me of Shak.

5. To order; to request; to command. He told her not to be frightened. Dickens.

6. To discern so as to report; to ascertain by observing; to find out; to discover; as, I can not tell where one color ends and the other begins.

Note: Tell, though equivalent in some respect to speak and say, has not always the same application. We say, to tell truth or falsehood, to tell a number, to tell the reasons, to tell something or nothing; but we never say, to tell a speech, discourse, or oration, or to tell an argument or a lesson. It is much used in commands; as, tell me the whole story; tell me all you know. To tell off, to count; to divide. Sir W. Scott.

Syn. -- To communicate; impart; reveal; disclose; inform; acquaint; report; repeat; rehearse; recite.

t. [imp. & p. p. Told; p. pr. & vb. n. Telling.]
