What does “shiruh” mean in Korean? (shiro)?

싫어/Shiru means I don’t want to.

I.E. 학교/Hakgyo (School) 가기/Gɑɡi (go) 싫어/Shiru (I don’t want to)
공부/Gongbu (Study) 하기/Hagi (do) 싫어/Shiru (I don’t want to)

I don’t want to.

Ani is basically just saying no or disagreeing with something.

아니 (ani) means “no” like when someone asks “did you go to the store” and then you say “no”
