lets start with the basics.. first, korean language is called in korea as HANGUNGMAL.. it is pronounced as HAN-GUNG-MAL... but it is spelled in hangeul as HAN-GUK-MAL. its like in english, for no reason it is just spelled differently.. what is hangeul anyway?? well.. HANGEUL is the korean writting like this hangeul (한글),are you confused?? the spelling is hangeul but it is pronounced as HANGUL...~nats 낫스

most of you thought that EUNHYUK(은헉)is pronounced as YUN-YOK.most of you say his name that way.but in korea the real pronounciation of that is UN-YOK. notice their shows, wen they call him they will say UNYOKA or UNYOKI..the reason is that "a" and "i" is an indicator that you are saying or calling a name.. thats why when they call heechul, its heechula or heechuli oppa! and hee's name is pronounce as HICHOL~nats 낫스

hee's name in hangeul is 희철.. in romanization it is literally spelled as huicheol here's the letters breakdown: ㅎ(h) ㅢ(ui) -the vowel "ui" of korea is pronounced as "ee or i" it sounds like when you say "bit" and "sit" ㅊ(ch) ㅓ(eo)-this "EO" vowel of korea is pronounced as "O" as is when you say "golf or soft" ㄹ(L/R) , so his name is pronounced as "HICHOL"..~nats 낫스

another one.. ^^, most of you thought that hae's name is pronounced as "DONGHEY or DONGHEI" but its should be "DONGHE", in hangeul its "동해", in romanization its literally spelled as "DONGHAE" ㄷ(d) ㅗ(o) ㅇ(ng) ㅎ(h) ㅐ(ae)-this vowel is pronounced as "E" like when you say or call someone as "bhe or Fe".. ~nats 낫스

most of you thought that teuki's name is pronounced as "LI-TUK" but its should be "I-TUK", in hangeul its "이특", in romanization its literally spelled as "ITEUK" 이(i) ㅌ(t) ㅡ(eu)-this vowel is pronounced as "U" like when you say "PUT", ㄱ(K/G).however, ELFs spelled it as leeteuk and we're also used to it so its ok but it should be pronounced as ITUK. ~nats 낫스

now its Siwon's name.. most of you thought its "SI-WON" but its really "SHI-WON" in korea.. in hangeul its 시원, in romanization its "SIWON", here's the letters breakdown: ㅅ(s) ㅣ(i) 워(wo)ㄴ(n).. however, in korea it is pronounced as "SHIWON", its like in english that its different in spelling and pronounciation like "assignment" its not the same in spelling and pronounciation.. ^^,~nats 낫스

his one is really important since we usually say ANNYEONG HASEYO.. <- this is the romanization and the hangeul is 안녕하세요. letters breakdown: 아(a) ㄴ(n)ㄴ(n) ㅕ

1

Page 2: Korean Learning

(yeo)-this is a korean VOWEL pronounced as "yo" too, ㅇ(ng) ㅎ(h) ㅏ(a) ㅅ(s) ㅔ(e) 요(yo).. most of you thought that it just means "hello", but actually its also goodmorning, goodevening, or goodafternoon so you can say it anytime.. BUT.. there's a rule there.. "annyeong" literally means PEACE and "haseyo" from the root word "HADA" which means "to do".. so it will depend on the way you say it, if you say it as a question "annyeong haseyo?" then it literally means "do you do peace?" but the REAL meaning is that "are you doing good?? or "are you fine?" and if you say it as a statement "annyeong haseyo." it literally means "do peace" which the REAL meaning is "be good or do well".. however it is used as a greeting in korea! ^^,~nats 낫스

by the way.. you can just greet as "ANNYEONG" only.. but this is informal and use to those who are about the same age as yours or if its your friend ur talking to.. ^^,~nats 낫스

lets start our new lesson now.. there are 2 main types of HANGUNGMAL (한국말). 1. BANMAL (반말)(CASUAL) this is derived from the word BAN (반) which means "HALF" and MAL (말) which means "SPEECH" or Language.. 2. JEONDAEMAL (전대말)(FORMAL) from the root words JEON (전) means "RESPECT", DAE (대) means "GREAT" and MAL (말) which me...1. BANMAL (반말)(CASUAL) this is the INFORMAL way of speaking in korea.. under this are the HAE, JI and YA suffix.. so means to say rootword+hae or ji or ya is informal.. example is: "who's there?" - (nuguya? and nuguji?) the rootword is NUGU which means "who" and we put the suffix YA and JI, another one is "BE QUIET" (joyonghihae) the rootword is joyonghi means "quietly or silently" + our suffix HAE which is the informal way of "HADA" means "to do".. ~nats 낫스

the suffix "JI" is use if your not sure.. its more like doubting or sating something to yourself.. example is "who are those people? (doubting and talking to yourself) -> "jeo saramdeuri nuguji?" (저 사람들이 누구지?) jeo means THOSE, saram is PERSON and if u add "deuri" it will mean to say PEOPLE, nugu means WHO and "JI" is our suffix.. ^^,~nats 낫스

2. JEONDAEMAL (전대말)(FORMAL).. iyeyo and hamnida is under this type of speech ^^, these are the most common words as u notice.. iyeyo is like BANMAL we also use this at home, to younger ones and to friends but the difference is that banmal in informal and iyeyo of jeondaemal is the polite way of talking so you can use this also when talking to those older than you ^^,~nats 낫스

so means to say.. iyeyo and hamnida are suffix under JEONDAEMAL TYPE os SPEECH.. iyeyo/eyo".. examples are: annyeong haseyo..(GREETING), nuguseyo? (who

2

Page 3: Korean Learning

are you), i am Natsukeh Yoon. (Natsukeh Yooniyeyo) ^^,~nats 낫스

rootword + iyeyo/eyo another example is kamsahaeyo.. kamsa means thank you and eyo is our suffix.. ^^,~nats 낫스

suffix "hamnida/imnida" is also under JEONDAEMAL, actually this is a very FORMAL way of speaking, it is use in NEWS CASTING, TV SHOWS, BUSINESS RELATED, MOST RESPECTED PEOPLE like grandfather, teacher, doctor etc.. and to strangers as well.. we're all familiar with with iyeyo/eyo as well as hamnida/imnida suffix.. common examples of hamnida/imnida (합니다/입니다) are: thank you "kamsahamnida" kamsa means than you + our formal suffix -hamnida.. i love you "saranghamnida" sarang means LOVE + hamnida.. im Natsukeh Yoon "Natsukeh Yoonimnida".. ~nats 낫스

ok PETALS.. ^^, this is very simple! there's actually a formula here so u can easily remember this.. (N1+neun then N2+iyeyo or imnida) <- depends on what LEVEL of speech you want to use.

you should REPLACE the N1 by either your name or someones name or just the word "I am", then N2 should be replaced the rootword.. example: "I am a student" -> JEOneun HAKSAENGiyeyo.. (jeo means I or me then the rootword haksaeng means student) another example is : ANNA is a student -> ANNAneun HAKSAENGiyeyo.. this is the easiest part of it because it still goes the same even your talking about other person.. its just that you have to change the subject which is your N1..~nats 낫스

you can use imnida also.. example: JEOneun HAKSAENGimnida.. this is the formal LEVEL remember??~nats 낫스

you just have to know the rootword.. another example is: "i am an elephant" (hehehe!) remember our formula (N1+neun N2iyeyo/imnida) JEOneun KOGGIRIyeyo (jeo means "I or me" then KOGGIRI is elephant) i used only YEYO coz the last letter of our rootword is a vowel and you can NOT say it like KOGGIRIiyeyo. ~nats 낫스

ok i know you all waiting for this.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ"I am a FILIPINO" -> JEOneun PILIPIN SARAMiyeyo (jeo means "I or me", then put your coutry's name, SARAM means person) so this literally means I AM A PILIPIN PERSON but the meaning in korea goes "I AM A FILIPINO" (in hangungmal philippines is spelled as PILIPIN) ^^,~nats 낫스

Page 4: Korean Learning

REMINDER: iyeyo/yeyo <- iyeyo is for CONSONANT ending words while yeyo is for VOWEL ending words example: kangiNiyeyo (the ending letter of the word KANGIN is N which is a consonant thats why we used iyeyo) miinAyeyo <- (MIINA end with a vowel A so we used yeyo) same rule goes to hamnida/imnida ^^,~nats 낫스

"I am a 4TH year college student" -> jeoNEUN daehakyo sahangnyeonIYEYO, (jeo means "I or me", daehakyo means COLLEGE, "SA" means four and hangnyeon means GRADE/YEAR ) literally means "I am in 4th yr college" but the meaning in korea is the same as "I am a 4TH year college student".. ~nats 낫스

elementary is chudeunghakyo pronounciation is (chu-dung-hak-yo)mid. is junghakyo pronounciation is (jung-hak-yo)highschool is godeunghakyo pronounciation is (go-dung-hak-yo)college is daehakyo pronounciation is (de-hak-yo)HAKYO literally means SCHOOLGRADE/YR is hangnyeon pronounciation is (hang-nyon)~nats 낫스

lets go to the numbers ^^, there are two types of numbers in korea..1. Sino-korean this use for saying/reading the time in MINUTES, telephone # date and in math classes ^^,2. Native korean it is use for saying/reading time in HOUR, age and counting small amount.. ^^, ~nats 낫스

ill give you only 1-10 ok? ^^, in Sino-korean numbers its 1-il, 2-i, 3-sam, 4-sa, 5-o, 6-yuk, 7-chil, 8-pal, 9-gu, 10-shibin Native korean its 1-hana, 2-dul, 3-set, 4-net, 5-daseot, 6-yeoseot, 7-ilgop, 8-yeodeol, 9-ahop, 10-yeol~nats 낫스

here's the pronounciation in Native korean numbers its 1-hana (HA-NA), 2-dul (DUL), 3-set (SET), 4-net (NET), 5-daseot (DA-SOT), 6-yeoseot (YO-SOT), 7-ilgop (IL-GOP), 8-yeodeol (YO-DOL), 9-ahop (A-HOP), 10-yeol (YOL)~nats 낫스

************************************************************************************

DATE: JULY 14, 2010now you know how to read hangeul, i know most of you wonder why my name NATS is spelled as 낫스.. THE EXPLANATION IS IN THE SESSION 4-B video where it said that when ㅅ is placed in the LEFT it is "S" but when it is in the BOTTOM it is "T" .. so

4

Page 5: Korean Learning

my name is spelled as NATSEU.. it has eu in the end because THERES NO word in... KOREAN that ends with "S", AND THE MOST IMPORTANT RULE IS THAT TWO CONSONANTS CANT GO TOGETHER SO YOU HAVE TO PUT eu in between them ALWAYS like this -> "KeuRiSeuTal" (we use K because there is no letter C in korean alphabet).. ~nats 낫스

btw, in 엘프 (ELF) (elpeu-romanization) (elpu-pronounciation) the letter L and P doesnt have eu in between them because it is in different syllable.. first syllable is EL and the second is PEU.. ^^,~nats 낫스

LOOK at the photo again and FOCUS ON THE SQUARE in the middle.. you can see the L (LEFT), R (RIGHT) and B (BOTTOM).. ㅅ- the name of this letter is ShioT.. what is the first letter of Shiot? ofcourse its S, what is the ending letter? it is T.. so the technique

5

Page 6: Korean Learning

is.. when ㅅ is placed in the L (LEFT) it is "S".. and when ...its in the BOTTOM it is "T".. so here is the list of the other letters: ㄱ(GiyeoK), ㅈ(JieuT) ㅂ(BieuP) ㄷ(DigeuT) ㄴ(NieuN) ㅁ(MieuM) ㄹ(RieuL) ㅎ(HieuT) ㅋ(KieuK) ㅌ(TieuT) ㅊ(CHieuT) ㅍ(PieuP)..

~nats 낫스

ok so lets start now while we're waiting for the SESSION 5-A video to be uploaded, have you ever noticed when SJ is talking about their members they would say "MEMBEODEURI". the reason is DEUR is use for PLURAL or those which is more than one.. its like in english that we put S when its more than one.. example is appleS, dogS.. it goes the same with DEUR, and the "i" is an indicator when your calling a name right? its also used for NOUNS, and the word MEMBEO is "MEMBER"..~낫스

another example of DEUR is the word SARAMDEURI, saram is a person but when you put DEUR it means you are now talking about more than 1 person so it will now mean PEOPLE.. so saram is person and saramdeur is people.. we add i to indicate it in a sentence.. ~낫스

do you still remember the formula (N1neun then N2iyeyo/imnida)?? actually it should be neun/eun (는/은)..if ur N1 ends with a consonant then you should use eun (은) and when it ends with vowel you should use neun (는)..the reason is that like in english for example, you can NOT say "a apple" or "an dog", it should be "an a...pple" or "a dog" right?? that also applies to 는/은..

~낫스

so its (N1+neun/eun then N2+iyeyo/imnida) example: Karen is a girl (karenEUN yeojaYEYO) yeoja means GIRL.. another one : Doni is a boy (doniNEUN namjayeyo) namja means BOY.. ~낫스

now i will teach you how to construct a NEGATIVE SENTENCE.. we also have a formula here (N1+neun/eun then N2+ i/ga then aniyeyo/animnida) example: I AM NOT ANNA - JEOneun ANNAga aniyeyo (jeo means I or me, aniyeyo comes from the word ani means NO or NOT), another on is : MARLYN IS NOT A STUDENT - MARLYNeun HAKSAENGi aniyeyo or MARLYNeun HAKSAENGi animnida.. the particle "i" and "ga" can be omitted or removed but it sounds more natural if you are going to put them in a sentence.. particle "i" is use for consonant ending words and particle "ga" is for vowel ending words..

~낫스

6

Page 7: Korean Learning

ill teach you the most basic and common sentence PETALS.. ^^, ex: "MY NAME IS AIZA" - je ireumeun aizaiyeyo or if u want it more formal the use imnida instead, (je means MY, ireum means NAME), if u wanna say just "I AM AIZA" - aizaiyeyo or make it formal by using imnida - aizaimnida.

~낫스

DATE: JULY 15, 2010

lets start with the " is there any _ _ _ _ _ near here?" sentence... i will type the explanations first so please wait ^^,~낫스

"IS THERE ANY COMFORTROOM/BATHROOM NEAR HERE?" - hoksi i geuncheoe HWAJANGSIRI itseumnikka/itseoyo?.. (hoksi is just a word to start a question politely, "i" is just a particle, geuncheoe means NEAR, hwajangsiri is COMFORTROOM/BATHROOM, and itseumnikka/itseoyo means "is there".. itseoyo is polite way and itseumnikka is formal way.. ^^,~낫스

another example: "IS THERE ANY HOSPITAL NEAR HERE?" - hoksi i geuncheoe BYEONGWONI itseumnikka/itseoyo?.. (hoksi is just a word to start a question politely, "i" is just a particle, geuncheoe means NEAR, BYEONGWONI is hospital, and itseumnikka/itseoyo means "is there".. itseoyo is polite way and itseumnikka is formal w...ay of speaking remember? ^^,~낫스

here's some words: hwajangsiri -comfortroom/bathroom, byeongwoni- hospital, subwaystation - jihacheul yeogi, department store- baekwajeomi, pharmacy- yakgugi, exit- chulguga, school- hakkyo..~낫스

KOREAN SENTENCE PATTERN: in fact, almost all korean sentences end with VERBS (including questions) example: I am Jen - jeoNEUN jeniyeyo/imnida. (jeo means "I or me", iyeyo and imnida are verbs because actually iyeyo/imnida are just VARIATIONS and the BASIC FORM is "IDA" which means "am, is, are or be". what is BASIC FORM? basic form are those you can see in the dictionary, so if you are going to look on a dictionary there's 90% chance that you will find "ida" instead of iyeyo or imnida.. FOR EXAMPLE IN ENGLISH.. "TALK" is the basic form then "taking and talked" are just variations, another one: "DO" - basic form then "does, doing and done" are just variations.. thats the reason why korean sentences always ends with imnida,iyeyo, itseumnikka, itseoyo, iya.. coz those are variations of the verd "IDA" which means "be,

7

Page 8: Korean Learning

am, are or is".. ^^, however, there are a lot of verbs but the point is KOREAN SENTENCES ENDS WITH VERBS ALWAYS.. so when you are going to make a sentence make sure that the verb will be placed at the end.. ^^,

~낫스

i will give you other common verbs: BF(basic form): "ida" 이다 POLITE: itseoyo 있어요/ iyeyo 이에요<-- the real spelling is IEYO, but we pronounce it as iyeyo CASUAL: itseo 있어 / iya 이야 FORMAL: itseumnida 있습니다 / imnda 입니다

~낫스

we pronounce itseoyo as (I-SO-YO) just put slight "T" between I and S.. itseo as (I-SO), itseumnida (I-SUM-NI-DA) slight t between I and S..

~낫스

another verb: "TO GO" .. BASIC FORM: gada 가다, POLITE: gayo 가요 (do you know TEUKI GAYO??).. CASUAL: ga 가 ..FORMAL: gamnida 갑니다.. example: "where are you going?!" - eodi gayo? (어디 가요?) (eodi means WHERE, and gayo is polite form of gada means TO GO..)

~낫스

another verb: "to NOT have" or "to have NOTHING".. BASIC FORM: eobda 없다 (the spelling in hangeul is eobsda but in romanization its eobda) POLITE: eobseoyo 없어요 CASUAL: eobseo 없어 (notice the title of NO OTHER in korean, it is "neo gatheun saram tto eobseo") FORMAL: eobseumnida 없습니다.. (tto means another, gatheun is something like in common, saram is person, neo is you, and eobseo is nothing, so "neo gatheun saram tto eobseo" means "there's no other person like you".) ^^,

~낫스

pronounciation: eobda (ob-da), eobseoyo (ob-so-yo), eobseo (ob-so), eobseumnida (ob-sum-ni-da).. btw, noticed the lyrics in BONAMANA (eobda, eobda, eobda, eobda) it literally means "not, not, not, not.."~낫스

another VERB: "TO DO".. BASIC FORM: hada 하다 , POLITE: haeyo 해요 , CASUAL: hae 해 , FORMAL: hamnida 합니다 .. example: "im sorry" - mianhaeyo or mianhae or mianhamnida (depends on type or level of speech you are going to use, if its polite, casual or formal) another example: "thank you" - kamsahaeyo or kamsahae or kamsahamnida.. ^^,

Page 9: Korean Learning

~낫스

페탈스는 어디 가지? (petalseuneun eodi gaji???) (PETALS+ subject/topic particle "neun", eodi means "where", gaji is from the basic form "GADA" which means "to go" + the particle "ji" which use when doubting/not sure ot talking to yourself, literally means "where did the PETALS go?" but the real meaning is "where's the PETALS?"..in tagalog its like saying "nasan na kaya mga PETALS?".. ^^, ~낫스

for example your mom left without telling you, you can also say "where did mom/mama/mommy go?" - "어마는 어디 가지?" (oemaneun eodi gaji?) eoma is the way korean call their mom's, it is derived from the word 어머니 (eomoni) which means MOTHER, again we added the subject/topic particle "neun", eodi means "where", ga is from the B.F GADA means "to go", + the particle "JI" to make it sound doubtful or not sure.. in filipino it's like (saan kaya nagpunta si mama?) ^^,~낫스

ok PETALS success!! proceed to this link for my bonus video for you i uploaded the video there since i cant put it here.. read the description of the video there! that was a cut from intimate note which i used as an example from our LECTURES! ENJOY!! http://www.facebook.com/pages/i-swear-to-SJ-FOREVER/130470430319884?ref=ts~낫스

as written in the description and as you have seen in the video, heenim said "PPALLI MALHAE", that means "speak fast" or "speak quickly".. PPALLI means fast/quick, mal means speech/speak/languange or talk.. and remember that the particle "HAE" is for informal use.. remember the example i gave you before.. the "JOYONGHI...HAE" which means "be quiet".. heenim used "HAE" particle since hyuki is younger than him so its ok even he speaks in informal way..

~낫스

the word hangungmal is spelled in hangeul as 한국말 in romanization it is HANGUKMAL. the word hangungmal is really the way it should be pronouncled. coz there is a rule in hangeul that when ㄱ (giuek) and ㅁ(mieum) are next to each other it will be pronounced as "NG" - ㅇ.. this will be explain on the session 7.

~낫스

ok lets start ^^, "I WOULD LIKE TO USE THE COMPUTER PLEASE" - kompyuteo jom sayonghago shipseumnida/shipeoyo. (computer in korea is kompyuteo (pronounciation:kom-pyu-to), jom means please, sayonghago is from the word "sayong" means to use, go is just a particle, shipseumnida./shipeoyo means "I would like"..

9

Page 10: Korean Learning

pronounciation: SHIPSEUMNIDA (SHIP-SUM-NI-DA)-(싶슴니다) , SHIPEOYO (SHI-PO-YO)-(싶어요)..

~낫스

another example: "I WOULD LIKE TO USE THE COMFORTROOM" - hwajangshiri jom sayonghago shipseumnida/shipeoyo. (remember that COMFORTROOM is hwajangshiri?.. jom means please, sayonghago is from the word "sayong" means to use, go is just a particle, shipseumnida./shipeoyo means "I would like"..) just change the first word with things you want to use.

~낫스

btw, i know most of us know the word "OMO!" (어머)right? actually it was an expression when you're surprised or shocked.. it was from the word eomeona (어머나).. (know the song "TELL ME" of wonder girls? there was a lyrics said "OMONA!" but the real spelling is "eomeona" it means "GOSH", "MY", "OH MY!" "MY GOODNESS" "OH!" and "GOOD GRACIOUS!" ^^,

~낫스

ofcourse we all know HEESSICA right?! haha! she's the alter-ego of our heenim (means other self, other personality).. and what was our heessica's favorite word??? .. its BABO!! LOL.. the real pronounciation is (BA-BO) since the spelling of it in hangeul is 바보(BABO).. it means "IDIOT" ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ!! ^^,

~낫스

i know you want to learn the way heenim swears or scold others. ㅋㅋㅋ based to other SJ members, heenim always say "you wanna die?!".in hangungmal its "neo jukeul shipeo?!" (neo means you, jukeul is from the word "juk" literally means kill, remember the word shipseumnida/shipeoyo that means "i would like". shipeo is the informal way of it and if you put a question mark it will mean do you want or do you like)

~낫스again.. its 너 죽을 싶어 (neo jukeul shipo) (PRONOUNCIATION: NO-JU-KUL-SHI-PO).. means "YOU WANNA DIE?!" -heenims favorite swearing and scolding word! ㅋㅋㅋㅋ..

~낫스

ok ill give the other VERBS now.. "To Drink".. BASIC FORM: mashida 마시다 ,

10

Page 11: Korean Learning

POLITE: masyeoyo 마셔요 CASUAL: masyeo 마셔 theres no formal way here so just use the POLITE instead of formal coz casual is informal.. ^^,

~낫스

another verb: "To Meet".. BASIC FORM: manna 만나다 , POLITE: mannayo 만나요 , CASUAL: manna 만나 ..

~낫스

another verb: "To Not Know" or "to know NOTHING" (it's like "i dont know" in english and "ewan q" in filipino).. BASIC FORM: moleuda 모르다 POLITE: mollayo 몰라요 CASUAL: molla 몰라.. so if ever someone asked you and you dont know the answer then you can just say "mollayo".. (pronounciation is MO-LA-YO)

~낫스

someone asked about HAMNIDA and HABNIDA... i know you are all confused with this.. but this is just simple.. HAMNIDA is spelled in hangeul this way --> 합니다 (habnida), but if you are going to read or pronounce it, it should be HAMNIDA.. its like in english that the spelling is different with pronounciation..THERE'S A RULE that "m" (ㅁ) and "n" (ㄴ) cant be next to each other so the "m" in hamnida is replaced by "B".. so it becomes HABNIDA...

~낫스

example: i am nats "저는 낫스입니다"... if you read that its "jeoneun natseuimnida".. ^^, though it was spelled as ibnida.. ^^,

~낫스

************************************************************************************DATE: JULY 16, 2010

so lets begin with "I AM SO HAPPY" - 너무 행복하다 , (this is formal level) "너무" means "SO or MUCH", 행복하다 means "TO BE HAPPY".. remember the song of SJ titled: 행복?? ^^, you can change the ending depends on what level you wanna use, if you want it polite then its "너무 행복해요" if you want it informal then just use "해".. ^^,

~낫스

11

Page 12: Korean Learning

by the way the BASIC FORM was really 행복하다 but the rootword is 행복 which means "HAPPINES".. like the SJ song ^^,

~낫스

REMINDER: BASIC FORM is different from the ROOTWORD.. BASIC FORM IS THE STRUCTURE OF THE WORD WHICH YOU CAN FIND IN DICTIONARY AND IT ALWAYS HAVE 하다 at the end.. while the ROOTWORD is the origin of word.. example: "주무세요" .. 주 is the rootword meens "SLEEP" and the basic form is "주다".. means "TO sleep"..

~낫스

another one: "I FEEL SO GOOD" - 너무 기분좋다 - ok i will put romanizations for some difficult words like this.. ㅋㅋㅋ.. its (neomu gibunjohda")(pronounciation is "no-mu gi-bun-jo-da).. 너무 means "SO or MUCH", "기분" literally means "MOOD", and "좋다" is a BASIC FORM means "TO BE GOOD", the rootword is "좋" means "GOOD"..

~낫스

12

Page 13: Korean Learning

another one: "I FEEL SO GOOD" - 너무 기분좋다 - ok i will put romanizations for some difficult words like this.. ㅋㅋㅋ.. its (neomu gibunjohda")(pronounciation is "no-mu gi-bun-jo-da).. 너무 means "SO or MUCH", "기분" literally means "MOOD", and "좋다" is a BASIC FORM means "TO BE GOOD", the rootword is "좋" means "GOOD"..

~낫스

another one: " I FEEL SO SAD " - 진짜 슬프다 .. (ROMANIZATION:jinjja seulpeuda) (PRONOUNCIATION: jin-ja sul-pu-da), jinjja means "really or trully", "seulpuda" is a BASIC FORM means "TO BE SAD".. the rootword is "seulpeu" which means "SAD"..

~낫스

ok im putting romanizations now, i think most of you want it.. here's for the previous post.. ^^,.." i am so happy" - 너무 행복하다 (ROMANIZATION: neomu haengbokhada) (PRONOUNCIATION: no-mu heng-bok-ha-da).. ^^,

~낫스

you can mix it up like "neomu seulpeuda" or "jinjja haengbokhada" can you get the point there PETALS??? ^^,

~낫스

another one: I FEEL SO LONELY - 너무 외롭다 (ROMANIZATION: neomu oerobda) (PRONOUNCIATION: no-mu we-rob-da) again, neomu means "SO or MUCH", oerobda is a BASIC FORM means "TO BE LONELY or BEING LONELY".. the rootword is oerob means "LONELY".. you can ALSO use jinjja amd JEONGMAL..

~낫스

REMINDER: jinjja and jeongmal both means "REALLY".. so if you put a question mark then its like.. " oh! really?" you can say "jinjjareo??" or "jeongmalyo?" means "is it really??"..

~낫스

ok most of you tot it's CHINCHA right?? dont try to deny it PETALS.. hehehe.. i've taught korean lessons before since i've been a korean tutor for 8months.. i just stopped since it made me feel bored! LOL.. but to be honest, most of my students tot its CHINCHA.. the reason is THE PRONOUNCIATION OF KOREANS ARE REALLY HA...RD TO IDENTIFY.. so you heard it as chincha when infact it is really JINJJA... ^^,

~낫스

i know you always here this from our SJ since they are always eating on their shows like in ADONIS CAMP, FULL HOUSE and more.. when they taste the food they say " 와! 너무 맛있다 " (ROMANIZATION:WA NEOMU MASITDA) (PRONOUNCIATION: wa- no-mu ma-shit-da) it mean "WOW! IT TASTES GOOD!" or "WOW! ITS DELICIOUS".. wa means WOW, neomu again is "SO or MUCH", mashitda is a BASIC FORM means "to taste good", the rootword is "mashit" means "DELICIOUS" .. again, you can also use jinjja and jeongmal..

~낫스

ㅋㅋㅋㅋ! seeeeee!! when it comes to heenim's words you're all ACTIVE! LOL! ok here it is.. he use to say "aaahhh!! jjajeungna!!!" or "aaiiisssshh! jjajungna!!" it means YOU'RE SO IRRITATING! .. (hangeul: 짜증나) (PRONOUNCIATION: ja-jung-na) the word "jjajungna" literally means "ANNOYING".. heenim always say this.. ^^,

~낫스

lets begin with "I FEEL LIKE GOING CRAZY".. - 미친겠다 .. (ROMANIZATION: michingettda) (PRONOUNCIATION: mi-chin-get-da) michin means "CRAZY" and gettda means "going to be"... ^^, if you put it together it means " I FEEL LIKE GOING CRAZY ".. you can say this when ur so upset, sad or SO HAPPY. ^^,~낫스

another one: "GO AWAY!!" - 저리가 (ROMANIZATION: jeoriga) (PRONOUNCIATION: jo-ri-ga) "jeori" is from the BASIC FORM means JEORIDA which means "to stay away" and "ga" is from the BASIC FORM GADA which means "TO GO".. ^^, you can say this to someone when your mad ^^,~낫스

REMINDER: you can always change the ending of those words that im teaching you depends on how you wanna use it.. i hope you all still remember the LEVELS of speech or ways of speaking which i taught you before.. example, you can say it as POLITE:

14

Page 15: Korean Learning

"jeorigayo" (if you say it politely then it means "dont be noisy") but if you say it in INFORMAL: "jeoriga" (then it means "SHUT UP").. ^^, ~낫스

another: "I HATE YOU" - 난 너 미워하다 (ROMANIZATION: nan neo miwohada) (PRONOUNCIATION: nan no mi-wo-ha-da) the word "nan" is like a short cut of "naneun" which means " I ".. the word "neo" means "YOU" and the word "miwohada" is a BASIC FORM means "TO hate or to feel hateful".. but the rootword is "miwo" means "HATE"..~낫스

REMINDER: "naneun" and "nan" has the same meaning means " I ".. also "jeoneun" and "jeon" are the same too which also means " I ".. so you can use either "naneun/nan neo miwohada" or "jeoneun/jeon neo miwohada"... are you confuse?? wait i will explain it to my next post..~낫스

there are different ways to say these words.. " I " or "ME" (POLITE: JEO , INFORMAL and CASUAL: NA) .. "YOU" - (FORMAL: DANGSIN , POLITE AND CASUAL : NEO).. "MY" -( FORMAL and POLITE: JE , CASUAL: NAE) .. but when you use those you need particles like NEUN and GA.. ^^,~낫스

for example: NANEUN.. JEONEUN.. JEGA.. NAEGA.. NEONEUN.. in dangsin it "dangsinEUN" (add just EUN since its consonant ending word) ^^, so "nan, jeon and neon" are just short cuts.. for example: JEONEUN NATSIYEYO ( i am nats) you can also say (jeon natsiyeyo) <-- short cut ^^,~낫스

how to make sentences with "WHAT" for example: what is this? , what is that, what is your name, what grade/year are you in...

~낫스

here: when you want to construct a "WHAT" sentences there is a formula (N1+ i/ga + mwohaeyo) REPLACE the N1 with the thing you are talking about, remember i is use for CONSONANT ending word and ga is for vowel ending words.. example: "what is your name" - IREUMi mwohaeyo? (이름이 뭐해요?) (PRONOUNCIATION: i-ru-mi mwo-he-yo) mwo means WHAT and i used haeyo (POLITE)

~낫스

by the way.. IREUM means "NAME".. ill give another example..

15

Page 16: Korean Learning

~낫스

another example: WHAT IS YOUR TELEPHONE NUMBER? - 전화 번호가 뭐해요? (ROMANIZATION: jeonhwa beonhoGA mwohaeyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: jon-hwa bon-ho-ga mwo-he-yo) jeonhwa means phone/telephone/cellphone.. beonho means NUMBER, and GA is particle.. mwo is WHAT and haeyo is POLITE way of speaking..

~낫스

another: WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM?... lol this was requested by PETAL "novia hana".. 문제가 뭐해요? (ROMANIZATION: munjega mwohaeyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: mun-je-ga mwo-hae-yo) munje literally means "ISSUE" and munjega means PROBLEM.. i didnt put the particle ga unless you wanna sound like MUNJEGAGA!! LOL! thats a no no! ㅋㅋㅋㅋ!

~낫스

alread taught you before how to say something like "im in 4th year college" right? now i will teach you this: WHAT GRADE/YEAR ARE YOU IN? - 학년이 뭐해요? (ROMANIZATION: haknyeoni mwohaeyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: HANG-yo-ni mwo-he-yo?) haknyeon means grade/year.. btw haknyeon is pronounced as "HANGYON"..the reason why haknyeon is pronounced as HANGYON is because there is A RULE in koean that when ㄱ and ㄴ are next from each other it will be replaces by ㅇ so it will sound "HANG" instead of "HAK".. dont worry TOMORROW i will post the video of the MOST IMPORTANS RULES like this and the hamnida pronounce as "habnida" rules....

~낫스

IGEO MWOHAEYO (POLITE) means WHAT IS IT or WHAT IS THIS.. but if your going to say it using INFORMAL (YA) "MWOYA" or it can also be "IGEO MWOYA".. it will mean (what the heck!/what the hell!) igeo literally means "THIS".. ^^,

~낫스

JULY 18, 2010

i know we all know this word but still i wanna tell you the rootword ^^, "i love you" -사랑해 (ROMANIZATION: saranghae) (PRONOUNCIATION: sa-rang-he) BASIC FORM: saranghada means "TO love".. and the ROOTWORD is SARANG whing literally means "LOVE"...

16

Page 17: Korean Learning

~낫스

we all know te greeting "annyeong haseyo" - 안녕 하세요 right?.. but there's another greeting that we only use for ANSWERING TELEPHONE/CELLPHONE CALLS.. and that is "HELLO" - 여보세요 (ROMANIZATION: yeoboseyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: yo-bo-se-yo)~낫스

by the way: i hope you always remember the LEVELS or WAYS of speech of hangungmal.. like in "i love you" - INFORMAL: saranghae, POLITE: saranghaeyo, FORMAL: saranghamnida.. ^^,~낫스

another: 엄마 (ROMANIZATION: eomma) (PRONOUNCIATION: om-ma) its means MAMA/MOM/MOMMY.. it comes from the word 어머니 (ROMANIZATION: eomeoni) (PRONOUNCIATION: o-mo-ni) which literally means "MOTHER"..~낫스

another: 아빠 (ROMANIZATION: abba) (PRONOUNCIATION: ab-ba) it means PAPA/DAD/DADDY.. it comes from the word 아버지 (ROMANIZATION: abeoji) (PRONOUNCIATION: a-bo-ji) which literally means "FATHER"..~낫스

we always here this from our SJ and also in other korean shows 잠깐만 (ROMANIZATION: chamkkanman) (PRONOUNCIATION: cham-kan-man) but you're going to say it fast it will be pronounced as "cha-ka-man".. it means "WAIT A MINUTE".. you can use it with the other levels of speech too.. like POLITE: "chamkkanmanyo" because chamk...kanman alone is INFORMAL..~낫스

there are diffent rootwords for "thank you" and it can be "감사" (KAMSA).. "고마워" (GOMAWO).. and "고맙" (KOMAB) you can say these words with the LEVELS you want.. examples: kamsahae, kamsahaeyo, kamsahamnida.. gomawoyo.. komabda.. the word KOMABDA is a BASIC FORM means "TO BE thankful" the rootword is KOMAB which literally means "THANK" ..~낫스

PAPA/DAD/DADDY is ABBA.. its just that most of you tot its appa since the pronounciation of koreans are confusing (if you have watched the video tutorials that i posted, you will definitely get what i mean since you could here there the confusing pronounciations of the speaker).. ^^,~낫스

17

Page 18: Korean Learning

another: where are you now? "지금 어디세요?".. (ROMANIZATION: jigeum eodiseyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: ji-gum o-di-se-yo) .. jigeum means "NOW" and eodi means "WHERE".. ^^,~낫스

another one: WHO ARE YOU? - 누구세요? (ROMANIZATION: nuguseyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: nu-gu-seyo?) the rootword is NUGU which derived from the word NUGA which means "WHO"..

you can say it in INFORMAL: nuga or nugu or nuguya POLITE: nuguyeyo or nuguseyo..

~낫스

another: "I LOVE YOU TOO" -나두 사랑해요 (ROMANIZATION: nadu saranghaeyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: na-du sa-rang-he-yo) nadu is from 2 combined words NA means i and "DU" means "too or also".. and saranghaeyo as we all know means "i love you".. ^^,~낫스

"WHEN"- 언제 (ROMANIZATION: eonje) (PRONOUNCIATION: on-je).. example: "when is your birthday?" - 너의 생일은 언제에요? (ROMANIZATION: neoui saengileun eonjeeyo) (PRONIUNCIATION: no-yi seng-i-lun on-je-ye-yo) neo means YOU (CASUAL), ui is a particle.. saengil means birthday, eun is also a particle remember? eonje is "WHEN", the the real spelling of "IYEYO" in hangeul is ieyo.. but here i use only eyo (YEYO).. ^^,~낫스

just wanna make it clear.. its really hard to identify the pronounciation of 아빠 (abba) and 오빠 (obba) <--- literally it is spelled that way.. but the PRONOUNCIATION is something in between the letter "B" and "P".. in korean PRONOUNCIATIONS the "b" and "p" sounds really alike, if you watched the session videos that i posted, the speaker said that ㄱ(G) sounds inbetween G and K.. same goes with the "ㅂ" "ㅃ" and "ㅍ"~낫스

"WHICH" - 어느 (ROMANIZATION: eoneu) (PRONOUNCIATION: o-nu)..

~낫스

"WHY".. almost a lot of us know this word.. 왜 (ROMANIZATION: wae) (PRONOUNCIATION: we <-- sounds like when you say bhe or the name Fe..) you can use POLITE: waeyo coz saying just "WAE" is INFORMAL..~낫스

18

Page 19: Korean Learning

"HOW" - 어떻게 (ROMANIZATION: eoddeohge) (PRONOUNCIATION: o-to-ke)..

~낫스

"I CANNOT SPEAK KOREAN VERY WELL" - 한국말 잘 못해요 (ROMANIZATION: hangukmal jal mothaeyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: han-gung-mal jal mot-he-yo) <--- i explained before that hangukmal is pronounced as hangungmal.. it was just spelled that way in nature.. the rule is in the pronounciation,, ill post a session video for important rules later.. hangukmal is two combined words: hanguk means "KOREAN" and "mal" means SPEECH/LANGUAGE/SPEAK/TALK.. "jal" means WELL and "mothaeyo" means DONT or NOT.

~낫스

DO YOU SPEAK KOREAN?" - 한국 말하세요? (ROMANIZATION: hanguk malhaseyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: han-gu-k mal-ha-se-yo?) hanguk means "KOREAN", mal means SPEAK/SPEECH/LANGUAGE/TALK, HASEYO is "TO GIVE" or "TO DO".. so if you will translate it LITERALLY it will be "do you do speak korean?" but the real meaning in korea will be "do you speak korean?" or "can you speak korean?"..~낫스

this one is useful.. if ever you will encounter a korean on fb, ofcourse you should ask him/her first if he/she can speak english coz we all know that not all korean can speak in english.. so here it is.. "DO YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?" or "CAN YOU SPEAK ENGLISH?" - 영어로 말하세요? (ROMANIZATION: yeongeoro malhaseyo?) (PRONOUNCIATION: yo-ngo-ro mal-ha-se-yo?)..yeongeo means ENGLISH, ro means in/as/on/by.. mal means SPEAK/SPEECH/LANGUAGE/TALK, HASEYO is "TO GIVE" or "TO DO".. so if you will translate it LITERALLY it will be "do you do speak english?" but the real meaning in korea will be "do you speak english?" or "can you speak english?"..~낫스

actually the "DO YOU SPEAK KOREAN?", you can also say it as HANGUKEORO MAHASEYO? since hangukeo also means KOREAN and "ro" again means in/as/on/by.. so its also "DO YOU SPEAK IN KOREAN?"~낫스

PETAL hunny chan asked me "how to say I CAN SPEAK KOREAN?" here it is.. I CAN SPEAK KOREAN - 저는 한국 말하다 (ROMANIZATION: jeoneun hanguk malhada) (PRONOUNCIATION: jo-nun han-guk mal-ha-da) jeo means "I" remember? "neun" is a subject/topic particle.. hanguk means KOREAN.. mal means SPEAK/SPEECH/TALK/LANGUAGE and hada is a B.ASIC FORM which means "TO DO".. "haseyo" is derived from HADA..~낫스

19

Page 20: Korean Learning

btw, remember when i told you about "ANNYEONG HASEYO".. that when you say it as a statement then it means "do peace" or "be good" or "do well" or "be well".. and if you are going to say it as a question then it will mean "are you at peace?" or "or you ok?" or are you well?".. it goes the same to those word i thaught you today..like for example: "do you speak korean?" - its hanguk malhaseyo? .. but if you will say it as a statement and remove the question mark (hanguk malhaseyo.) then it will mean "speak in korean"..so it will depend if you are asking or just saying it to command..~낫스

ADMIN MHADJO of "i swear to ♥ SJ forever" page asked me if JAGIYA and YEOBO both means DARLING.. ^^, i thank her actually since she's a real supporter/follower of this page ever since.. and she really follows my lectures.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.. ok then, they really both means "darling" or "honey".. the difference is that the word yeobo can ONLY be used by couples.. i mean to those who are married (used by husband and wife).. while the word "JAGIYA" is for boyfriends-girlfriends.. or even when you just want to flirt.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋ..~낫스

************************************************************************************JULY 19, 2010

in constructing the "give me (~) please" there is a formula: (N1+ jom+ juseyo) example: "give me water please" - 물 좀 주세요 (ROMANIZATION: mul jom juseyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: mul jom ju-se-yo).. "mul" is WATER.. jom means PLEASE and "juseyo" means "give me or give us".. so change the N1 with anything you like.. ^^,

~낫스

another example: requested by PETAL Aideи Lee Saиtiago "give me a kiss please" again remember the formula (N1+jom+juseyo)- 키스 좀 주세요 (ROMANIZATION: kiseu jom juseyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: ki-su jom ju-se-yo) the word KISS is "kiseu" in korean, jom means please and juseyo means "give me or give us".. however, most of you know the word 뽀뽀 (ROMANIZATION: bbobbo) (PRONOUNCIATION: po-po / bo-bo) <-- say it the way you like since the pronounciation is inbetween the sound of "B" and "P".. you can also use the word " 뽀뽀 " also means "to kiss" the difference is that it means more like "smooch" or to kiss cutely... ^^,

~낫스

another one: "I am going to (~)" the formula is (N1+gamnida) example: "i am going to department store" - 백화점이 갑니다 (ROMANIZATION: baekhwajeomi gamnida) (PRONOUNCIATION: bek-hwa-jo-mi gam-ni-da) baehwajeom means "DEPARTMENT STORE", then " i " is a subject/topic particle.. gamnida means "going or go" it is from the

20

Page 21: Korean Learning

BASIC FORM: gada which means "TO go"..

~낫스

another one: "im scared!" - 무서워 (ROMANIZATION: museowo!) (PRONUNCIATION: mu-so-wo!) the word museowo literally means "SCARY" ^^, you can also say it "eommaya museowo!" - eomma means MOM/MAMA/MOMMY.. you should only use the particle "YA" when talking TO a family member and VERY CLOSE FRIEND because it is VERY informal..

~낫스

************************************************************************************JULY 21, 2010

here are some korean words ^^, R- is romanization and P- is pronounciation..apple- 삭와 (R: sagwa) (P: sag-wa)pants- 바지 (R: baji) (P: ba-ji)socks- 양말 (R: yangmar) (P: yang-mar)hat- 모자 (R: moja) (P: mo-ja)t-shirt- 티셔츠 (R: tisyeocheu) (P: ti-syo-chu)skirt- 치마 (R: chima) (P: chi-ma)hairband- 머리띠 (R: meoritti) (P: mo-ri-ti)ballpen- 볼펜 (R: bolpen) (P: bol-pen)

"COLOR" - 색 (R: saek) (P: sek) PINK - 분홍색 (R: bonhongsaek) (P: bon-hong-sek) RED - 빨간색 (R: PpalganSaek) (P: pal-gan-sek)WHITE- 하얀 색 (R: hayanSaek) (P: ha-yan-sek)YELLOW- 노란 색 (R: noransaek) (P: no-ran-sek) GREEN- 초록 색 (R: choroksaek) (P: cho-rok-sek) BLUE- 파란색 (R: paransaek) (P: pa-ran-sek) BLACK- 검정 색 (R: geomjeongsaek) (P: gom-jong-sek)

Still remember the sentence that i taught you before? the "is there a bathroom near here?" "hoksi i geuncheoe hwajangsiri itseumnikka/itseoyo?". the word itseumnikka/itseoyo means "IS THERE" or "DO YOU HAVE".. the itseumnikka is formal level while the itseoyo is polite level. we are going to use the "IS THERE" together with colors and things. example: "is there a red socks?" or "do you have red socks?"

FORMULA: (N1 then N2+neun/eun then itseumnikka/itseoyo..)(REPLACE N1 with the

21

Page 22: Korean Learning

color you want, then REPLACE N2 with the any THING you want.. ex: "DO YOU HAVE RED SOCKS?" - 빨간색 양말은 있습니까? (R: ppalgansaek yangmareun itseumnikka?) (P: pal-gan-sek yang-ma-run it-sum-ni-ka?).. ppalgansaek is our color (RED) so i put it as my N1, then yangmar is our thing (SOCKS) so i placed it as my N2.. i used EUN only since it ends with a consonant.. and REMINDER: you can also use "itseoyo" (polite level)..

~낫스

another example: remember the formula (N1 then N2=neun/eun then itseumnikka/itseoyo) "do you have a pink hat?"- 분홍색 모자는 있어요? (R: bonhongsaek mojaneun itseoyo?) (P: bon-hong-sek mo-ja-neun it-so-yo?).. bonhongsaek means PINK, moja means HAT (i used neun since it the word moja ends with a vowel), and i used itseoyo becau...se i want it in a POLITE level..

~낫스

lets have the self-introduction.. we'll start with the very basic lesson since the others aren't here yet.. ^^, actually most of you know this already.. so we will start with this sentences "hello! i am Natsukeh Yoon", "I am from Philippines", "nice to meet you".. ~낫스

HELLO! MY NAME IS NATSUKEH YOON".. - 안녕하세요! 제 이름은 윤낫수케입니다.. this is a formal way of introducing yourself.. (ROMANIZATION: annyeong haseyo! je ireumeun Yoon Natsukeimnida) "the word annyeong haseyo is like "HELLO" but it basically does everything with greeting people.. je means "MY".. the word "IREUM" means NAME.. "eun" is a particle.. i wrote my surname first since the surname geos first in Korea.. then imn...ida is a formal way of speaking but literally means "is/are/".. ~낫스

another one: "HELLO! I AM NATSUKEH YOON".. - 안녕하세요! 윤낫수케이에요... (ROMANIZATION: annyeong haseyo! Yoon Natsukeieyo").. REMINDER: ieyo <-- is the real spelling of it in HANGEUL.. its just pronounced as "IYEYO".. by the way this is a Polite way or level of speech.. you can always use either "iyeyo" or "imnida".. ~낫스

"I AM FROM PHILIPPINES" - 저는 필리핀에서 왔어요.. (ROMANIZATION: jeoneun Pilipineseo wasseoyo) (PRONOUNCIATION: jo-nun pi-li-pi-ne-so wa-so-yo) JEO means "I or I am".. neun is a particle.. Philippines is spelled as "PILLIPIN" in Korea.. the word "esseo" means FROM.. wasseoyo means "i've come".. ~낫스

i noticed that most of you already know this ^^, --> "NICE TO MEET YOU" - 만나서

22

Page 23: Korean Learning

반갑습니다. (ROMANIZATION: mannaseo bangapseupnida) (PRONOUNCIATION: ma-na-so bang-gap-sum-ni-da).. mannaseo is from the basic form of verb "MANNA" which means "to meet",.. bangapseupnida means "glad or nice" making the sentence mean like "nice to see you" "nice to meet you" or "glad to meet you" .. ~낫스

i have to go now.. ill be back after 7 hours since i am going to school today.. ^^, i have classes during saturdays ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.. i will teach you these words later: "oh no! what should i do?!".. "oops! i forgot it again".. "oops! i did it again!".. "oh! its been a long time!" or "long time so see".. "did you forgot it again?.." and a lot more ^^, 페탈 by the way add me up.. GTG.. be back later ^^, 스 사랑해요! ♥ ~낫스

"oops! i forgot it again!" - 아이고! 또 까먹었네! (ROMANIZATION: aigo! ddo kkameogeone!) (PRONOUNCIATION: ai-go! to ka-mo-go-ne!) aigo is a korean expression same as "OOPS!" and "OH NO!" in english.. its not oemona! or oemo since its "oh my!" "gosh!".. so its "AIGO!" in filipino its like "NAKU!" or "HALA!".. ddo means AGAIN and the word "kkameogeone" means to forgot.. ~낫스

"oh no! what should i do?!" -아이고! 어쩌지?! (ROMANIZATION: aigo! eojjoji?) (PRONOUNCIATION: ai-go o-jo-ji?!) do you all still remember when i taught about " omma eodi gaji?" (where did mom go?)(talking to yourself.. wondering).. that when you put the particle "Ji" it will make you sound doubting or not sure.. and it is usually used when talking more onto yourself.. like asking yourself what to do.. ~낫스

REMINDER: eottoke is the usual when talking to someone.. but what i mentioned on my last post is talking to yourself, like for example, you have over cooked the ramen that it became soggy, and thats the only food you have at like 3:30am and you cant go out to buy another you can say to yourself "aigo eojjeoji?!".. ~낫스

1. congratulation- 축하해요 (R: chukhahaeyo)(P: chu-ka-he-yo)2. sure- 물론 (R: mullon)(P: mu-lon)3. stop/ enough- 그만해 (R: keumanhae)(P: ku-man-he)4. joke- 농담 (R: nongdam)(P: nong-dam)5. im ok/ im fine/ im alright- 괜찮아 (R: gwaenchana)(P: gwen-cha-na)

-nunmul literally means - TEARS.. nun is eyes or look.. mul is water

6. indeed- 그래요 (R: keuraeyo )(P: ku-re-yo )7. right/ correct- 맞아요 (R: majayo)(P: ma-ja-yo )

8. please- 좀 (R: jom)(P: jom)9. this/it - 이거 / 이것 (R: igeo/ igeot)(P: i- go / i-got)10. that- 저거 / 저것 (R: jeogeo / jeogeot)(P: jo-go / jo-got)

admin mhadjo of i swear to love SJ forever page asked bout "hajima".. yep ur right admin, it somehow alike however "hajima" really means "dont do it".. ha is from the basic form HADA means "to do" and the particle "jima" means "DO NOT/dont"

REMINDER: the particle "jima" which means "DO NOT or DONT" can only be added to the verbs root word.. example: "MOK" means "eat" plus the "jima" particle, it will be MOKJIMA means "DONT EAT/ DONT EAT IT".. another example: nunmul is tear or cry.. plus the jima particle, it will be "DO NOT CRY"..

IMPORTANT: the word hajima and nunmuljima that i used as an example are just short cuts, like in 저는 (jeoneun) means " I " the short cut is 전 (jeon).. in hajima and nunmuljima the right or proper word is really 하지 마세요 (haji maseyo) and 눈물지 마세요 (nunmulji maseyo) maseyo is the main word which means "DONT"..

@ana: yes (울지마) EULJIMA or (울지 마세요) EULJI MASEYO exist.. ^^, it also means "DONT CRY".. it has the same meaning with nunmulji maseyo.. in english its like "want" and "like".. different words but has same meaning..

11. help- 도와 (R: dowa)(P: do-wa)12. here-여기 / 여기서 (R: yeogi / yeogiseo)(P: yo-gi / yo-gi-so)13. love- 사랑 (R: sarang)(P: sa-rang)14. house- 집 (R: jib)(P: jib)15. once- 한번 (R: hanbeon)(P: han-bon)16. rotten smile- 써소 미소 (R: sseokso miso)(P: sok-so mi-so) A.K.A 써소 (R: sseokso)(P: sok-so)17. again- 다씨 (R: dassi)(P: da-shi)18. wish/ hope- 바래요 (R: baraeyo)(P: ba-re-yo) <--- this is the correct spelling, i accidentally wrote it wrong earlier.. 19. slow/ slowly- 천천히 (R: cheoncheonhi)(P: chon-cho-ni)20. fast/ quick/ hurry- 빨리 (R: ppalli)(P: pa-li)

~낫스

"HEECHUL OPPA I LOVE YOU TO DEATH" - 희철 오빠 죽도록 사랑합니다 - (R: huicheol oppa jukdorok saranghamnida)(P: hi-chol o-pa juk-do-rok sa-rang-ham-ni-da).. jukdorok means the feeling of "too much that you can almost die" and saranghamnida

24

Page 25: Korean Learning

means "i love you" from the rootword 사랑 (sarang) means "LOVE".. like i said from the start, the real romanization of 희철 is huicheol, we are all just used to writing it as "heechul" since is all over the internet by ELFS and PETALS.. ^^, for those who learned hangeul already i assume you understand me.. try to romanize it by yourself so you know ^^,

~낫스

ㅋㅋㅋㅋ.. this is most requested.. almost 7 PETALS asked me thru pm to teach "HEECHUL OPPA I LOVE YOU LIKE CRAZY".. - 희철 오빠 미치도록 사랑합니다 (R: huicheol oppa michidorok saranghamnida)(P: hi-chol o-pa mi-chi-do-rok sa-rang-ham-ni-da) the word michidorok is the feeling of like going to be crazy, saranghamnida means "i love you" from the rootword 사랑 (sarang) means "LOVE"..

REMINDER: im always reminding you bout this.. that you can change the levels or kind of your speech.. from the formal word "saranghamnida", you can also use the POLITE level which is "saranghaeyo" 사랑해요<--this sounds more natural ^^, always remember that all that ends with hamnida is in the FORMAL level while the words which ends with haeyo or just "yo" is in POLITE level.. ^^,

one PETAL sent me a personal message asking me to post a korean quote.. this one is pretty famous love quote in korea.. "I LOVE YOU AS HIGH AS THE SKY AND AS DEEP AS THE EARTH" - 하늘만큼 땅만큼 사랑합니다 (R: haneulmankeum ttangmankeum saranghabnida )(P: ha-nul-man-kum tang-man-kum sa-rang-ham-ni-da) HANEUL literally means SKY while "ttang" means EARTH or GROUND, "mankeum" means "match or like", again, saranghamnida is in FORMAL level means "i love you" from the rootword SARANG means LOVE..

IMPORTANT: PETALS if you are going to put the name of someone on a sentence you SHOULD place it in the BEGINNING of your sentece.. example: heechul oppa haneulmankeum ttangmankeum saranghaeyo/saranghamnida.. in korean sentence structure nouns goes first and verbs must be at the end of the sentence.. ^^,
