Based on the level of respect or formality, you can say "Can you repeat that?" in Korean in 3 ways:

Can you speak again?

  • Informal: dasi mal-hae-jul su iteo? (다시 말해줄 수 있어?), dasi mal-hae-julrae? (다시 말해줄래?), dasi mal-hae-jul su itni? (다시 말해줄 수 있니?)
  • Formal: dasi mal-hae-jul su iteoyo? (다시 말해줄 수 있어요?), dasi mal-hae-jul su itseupnigga? (다시 말해줄 수 있습니까?)
  • Very Formal: dasi malsseum-hae-jusil su itseupnigga? (다시 말씀해주실 수 있습니까?)

- can do: hal su ittda (할 수 있다)
- can speak: mal-hal su itda (말할 수 있다), malsseum-hal su itda (말씀할 수 있다)
- speak again: dasi mal-hada (다시 말하다), dasi malsseum-hasida (다시 말씀하시다?)
- you (subjective): neo (너), neo-neun (너는), dangsin-eun (당신은), dansin-ggeseo-neun (당신께서는) - omitted here
- to repeat: dasi-hada (다시하다)
