마음이 무겁다 weigh down on (someone)

A : 아침에 아이를 야단 쳐서 학교에 보냈거든요.
     I yelled at my kid before I sent him off to school this morning.

     그랬더니 하루 종일 마음이 무겁네요. 
     So it's been weighing down on me all day.

B : 이해가 돼요. 저도 그래서 아침엔 되도록이면 아이를 혼내지 
     않으려고 노력해요. 

     I understand. So I try not to scold my kid early in the
     morning.

 
핸드폰은 진동으로
 
와, 깜짝 놀랐어요.
Whoa! That startled me!
 
저 사람 핸드폰 벨소리 한 번 요란하네요.
That guy's cell phone sure rings very loud.
 
그러게 말이예요.
You can say that again.
 
공공장소에서는 벨 소리를 낮추거나 아예 진동으로 바꾸는 게 에티켓인데요.
It's definitely more polite to turn down the volume in public places, or better yet set the phone to vibrate mode.

1) The global financial crisis has affected a number of powerful countries; however, India seems to be holding its place as one of the world's strongest economic powers. Instead of reporting great losses like the United States, the United Kingdom and South Korea, India's gross domestic product is growing. The nation reported a 5.3 percent increase in the third quarter of the 2008 fiscal year, which was less than expected but much higher than anywhere else in the world.

2) Experts say that India has not felt much of the global financial crisis thanks to bureaucracy and its protectionist policies. Its state-dominated financial system is almost entirely separate from foreign markets and bureaucracy heavily slows export growth, which experts generally cited as negative points for the nation. However, in the case of a global financial crisis, both factors are working to protect the nation. For example, India's low dependence on exports makes it less vulnerable to international economic problems.

3) "Thanks to our domestic consumption and demand, India and a handful of other countries, despite world gloom, are a shining example of a resilient economy," said India's Home Minister P. Chidambaram.

4) In addition to high domestic demand, India's young, powerful population and business innovations are helping to maintain the nation's economy. Indian businesses are continuing to close large investment deals with Indian banks still happily handing out generous loans.

5) On the other hand, some Indians say that they would rather be suffering from the global financial crisis like many other nations so that they could benefit from the economic changes later on. The nation's economic debt is also expected to double to 11.4 percent of its gross domestic product in the next year.

6) "In these two to three years, we will do better than the rest of the world for the various constraints we kept on," said Gurcharan Das, the former Chief Executive of Proctor & Gamble India. "However, a whole generation could have been lifted out of poverty into middle class if we had done these reforms."
