as one keeps doing something

Links an ongoing activity to what comes out of it. Followed by a "so" ending it explains a discovery or result — trying something unfamiliar, it turned out to be hard; tracing the symptoms back, one person emerged; standing in the staff's position, he saw it differently. Followed by an "if" ending it predicts one: keep experiencing it and you'll get used to it. Do not mix it with 어 보다, which means trying something once to see how it goes.
