It’s always been difficult to come up with what I want to write, say, draw etc. when there’s an assignment. So today I was like what do I write about when the topic is 핀란드 생활 (Finnish life) because though the topic is given I don’t know enough vocabulary to write what I want to say 🥲 #LearningKorean

So both Korean and Japanese adopted the German word "Arbeit" (work, job) into their languages (아르바이트 and アルバイト or just バイト) but they both changed the meaning to "part-time job". Interesting how stuff like that happens 🤔

So I just found out about long vowels in Korean (see video). His example here is:

밤 (bam) with a long vowel = chestnut
밤 (bam) with a short vowel = night

So of course, my first question is which one is Jungkook's Bam? Which one does Jungkook say?

Ep.2 onward will include many more terms—not just vocab, but the cultural context that makes the words click.

Now this is really interesting to me. This hanja 無 (무) (nothing, nothingness) is mixed in with your standard hangul. I tried looking up how many hanja a Korean native knows on average but I got varying answers. I've seen some used in the news as well 🤔

I still end up looking this up for reference once or twice a year for various reasons. Good job, past soch.

(These are aggregate summary notes written five years ago from about a week of watching videos and reading about what mouths are supposed to do when speaking Korean.)

Do English speakers find Korean hard to learn? How tough is it? Is this really true, or just a myth? Let’s find out!

We discussed New Year’s goals in our Korean lesson today. I blurted out that in addition to trying to study Korean harder I’ll start studying Japanese again (after ~10 years). 😂😭 화이팅! 頑張れ!🔥💪

New word of the day is 띠동갑 (12 years gap when referring to the zodiacs). #LearningKorean #LearningJapanese

Checking to see if this works.

In May it’ll be six years since I started learning Korean. This is what we’re studying now:

가: 부탁이 있는데 시간 있어요? (부탁이 있다)
나: 지금 괜찮으니까 이야기해 보세요.

+ 내놓다 means a whole bunch of things but the ㅎ gets dropped because of casual speech?

So does it mean something along the the lines of "Like a baby left by the riverside = they are so helpless = which makes want to look after them"?

Do I understand that right?

I started getting to know about the Korean Culture through my discovery of K-Pop. Of course at the beginning I heavily relied on subtitles but with time I realised that there were some words I automatically translated without needing the subtitles.

More cards (5–6) + the player view.
#LearningKorean isn’t just vocab—it’s context.

If you can follow these terms, you’re reading Korea between the lines.

Even most Koreans don’t know this much history (seriously, quiz your friends).
