• Now you can learn important Korean sentences too!

  Tomorrow I have my final exams for Korean class at Yonsei university.  Here are some example sentences from my textbook of different grammar I am learning, with the translation my textbook offers.  If you can’t see the Korean characters, right click on the screen and select “Encoding” and “Korean.” 

  휘파람을 불면서 목욕을 해요. (Hwuipalameul bulmyunseo mokyokeul haeyo) – “She takes a bath while whistling.”

  내 살던 고향은 꽃 피는 산골이에요. (nae saldeon gohyangeun kot peeneun sangoleeayo) – “The hometown where I used to live is a flowering mountain valley.”

  닫혔던 문이 저절로 열렸군요. (dadhyutdeon moonee juhjuhllo yullyutgoonyo) – “The door which had been closed has opened of itself, I see!”

  붕어가 살아 있군요.  죽을 것 같았는데… (boong-uhga sala eetgoonyo.  jookeul gut gatatneunde) – “The carp are alive, I see!  And it had seemed they would die…”

  한국말이 아무리 어려워도 끝까지 배우겠어요. (hangukmalee ahmoolee uhlyuhwudo kootkajee baeoogaesuhyo) – “No matter how difficult Korean is, I will learn it to the bitter end.”

  God bless!
