I remember trying to use 씻다 everywhere when I first learned it. But it wasn't until a bit later when I learned about 닦다 and 청소하다, and then 감다, and others. So I wanted to put together a simple guide for anyone wondering about how to say "to wash" or "to clean," to help other people who might have thought the same way as I did when I was a beginner.

This video covers using the verbs 씻다, 닦다, 세수하다, 청소하다, 빨다, 감다, and 헹구다.

This is a re-up of an essay I wrote recently for 1945.com about Ukraine.
