I'd translate it as "I'm worrying [literally "I worry"] about whether I will be able to finish my work by tomorrow." If there's no question word in the sentence like 무엇, 왜, or 어떻게, I usually translate it as "whether." For example:
11 월 2 일에 중간 시험에 합격할지 몰라요. I don't know if I'll be able to pass my midterm exam on November 2.

First of all, I think you'd use 비싸져서 here because 비싸지니까 is mainly used with commands and "let's" grammar. Maybe I'm wrong, though.
I'd also changed 많이 ("a lot") to 충분히 ("enough") if I were you. Unless it's no longer being able to eat five meals a day that you're worried about.  |
thanks for your explaination ... i got new word today... it's very hard to study korean alone .... |

True. Structured classes are the only way to go, in my opinion. Even online ones are better than nothing. At least they'll keep you learning vocab and grammar at a decent rate, and some online classes offer instructors that will grade your homework and essays and give you feedback. Don't know a single conversational foreigner who didn't do classes of some sort. Ignore that guy with a huge ego who says "classes are useless, you need a Korean girlfriend and you need to get drunk with the locals a lot." Because his Korean sucks.
