most of the people on here who identify as stuff like lithiosexual or cupiosexual or demisexual or whatever are younger teens, aged like 11-14??? and if you’re ace that’s great that’s really cool but i feel like people on this site are making literal young kids feel like they’re some obscure orientation because they don’t ALWAYS WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH EVERYONE ALL THE TIME like??? there are sexualities out there defined with something like ‘level of sexual attraction fluctuates’ or ‘does feel attraction and has the potential to want sex but not always’ and???? i’m worried that people don’t realise that that is NORMAL. this isn’t about 17y/o ace or aro people because you aren’t the ones i’m doubting i just,,,, i worry

EAT UP.. non-edible verbs

We all know that a huge part of Korean culture is.. eating! However the word 먹다 (to eat) has several different uses in Korean, and if you don’t know these terms.. you may be a bit confused like when you hear “친구 먹었어".. please don’t eat my friend?

Let’s take a look!  

까먹다 - to forget “너 수학 숙제 했어? 오늘까지인거 알지?” - “You did your homework right? You know it’s due today.” “아.. 까먹었어..” - “Ah.. I forgot..”

더위 먹다 - to be overwhelmed by heat “더위 먹어서 정신이 없나봐요. 아이스 커피 4잔 산다는게 3잔 샀어요.. 죄송합니다” - “I was so overheated that I couldn’t think straight..  I bought 3 iced coffees instead of 4… I’m so sorry”

나이 먹다 - to get older “아이고.. 나이 먹나봐. 허리 아파..” - “Ohh god.. I’m getting so old.. My back hurts..” “너 19살인데..” - “You’re only 19..”

욕 먹다 - to be sworn at or get a bad reputation. “요즘 그 아이돌 거짓말한거 걸려서 욕 많이 먹더라.“ - “Everyone found out that the idol lied so his reputation is getting ruined.”

좀먹다 - to undermine, eat away “그런 사람들이 사회를 좀먹는거 같아요." “Because of people like that, society is being eaten away.”

친구 먹다 - to become friends “우리 3살차이 나는데 그냥 친구 먹기로 했어.” - “We’re only 3 years apart but we decided to be friends” (BTW: generally only people the same age are considered to be “친구/friends”. If there’s an age difference, then one person will be considered the “친한 동생/younger sibling” in the relationship)

써먹다 - to use, utilize “그 농담 재밌다. 나도 나중에 써먹어야지.” - “That’s a funny joke. I’ll have to use it later.”

I hope these terms were tasty enough for you to eat right up. More coming soon!

[thekimchibear]

WHATEVER terms.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but for a long time I had the “whatever terms”, as I like to call them, completely mixed up. Instead of saying “doesn’t matter to me!” I’d pretty much respond with “IDGAF” (sorry friends ^^). So let’s throw away that “어쩌라고” and get a little more nuanced with our responses. (Heads up! Sth = Something) Let’s take a look -

상관 없다 – To not matter (I don’t mind)

A: 한식 먹을래, 중식 먹을래? / Do you want Korean or Chinese food? B: 상관 없어, 난 둘다 좋아. / Doesn’t matter, I’m good with both.

A: 이 유리병 뚜껑을 잃어버렸는데 어떡하죠? / I lost the top to this glass bottle, what should I do? B: 상관 없어요. 어짜피 버리려고 놔둔거에요. / It doesn’t matter, I put it there to throw away anyways.

아무렇지 않다 – To not be affected

A: 사람들이 뒤에서 너 얘기 하는거 들었어? 나라면 너무 화날거 같은데. / Did you hear what people were saying behind your back? I’d be pissed if it were me. B: 그냥 할일 없는 사람들이라고 생각하면, 아무렇지 않더라고. / If I just think of it as people with nothing better to do, then it doesn’t affect me.

신경 안 쓰다 – To not care / not think about sth

A: 페이스북 보니까 네 전남친 새여자친구 생겼더라. / I saw on Facebook that your ex-boyfriend got a new girlfriend? B: 아..몰라,  이제 신경 안 쓸래. / Ah.. I don’t want to care about it anymore.

A: 출근할때 너무 복장에 신경 안 쓰는거 아니에요? / Aren’t you being careless about what you wear when you come into the office? B: 죄송합니다, 매니져님. / I’m sorry, (manager.)

관심 없다 – To have no interest in sth

A: 페이스북 보니까 네 전남친 새여자친구 생겼더라. / I saw on Facebook that your ex-boyfriend got a new girlfriend. B: 아 그래? 근데 노관심 (관심 없어). / Yeah? I really don’t care (IDGAF).

A: 톰씨도 좋아하는 걸그룹 있어요? / Tom do you have a favorite (k-pop) girl group? B: 아.. 다들 TWICE 좋아하던데, 저는 그런데 관심이 없어서요.. / Ah.. it seems like everyone likes TWICE, but I have no interest in those groups.

As always these aren’t word-for-word translated and are much more nuanced, therefore each translations wording varies a bit. (FUN FACT: If you replace every response with 어쩌라고 you get the worst possible response.) I hope these examples help you out, and more posts coming soon!

줄임말 (Slang Part 3: Getting Conversational)

So you know the basics of Korean texting slang.. but now you want more.. right? Let’s play with some new words that aren’t just shortened versions, here’s some common conversational slang for you to use.

콜 - to be down, sounds good (can be question or answer) “치맥 콜?” =  “You down to get some chicken and beer?”

갓~ / ~느님 - God / Someone fantastic 3 pop culture gods of Korea “갓연아” - Yuna Kim (figure skater)   “유느님” - Jaesok Yu (TV MC)  “치느님” - Fried Chicken (who doesn’t love it?)

그린라이트 - Green light to move in (only romantically) “어제 좋아하는 남자애가 우산 씌워줬는데, 이거 혹시 그린라이트야?” = “Yesterday the guy I like held an umbrella for me, is that the green light?” 

빵터지다 - Bust out laughing (빵 = sound, 터지다 = explode), LOL “가디언즈 오브 갤러시 2에서 메리 포핀스 대사에서 진짜 빵터졌잖아.” = “I busted out laughing at the Mary Poppins line in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.”

빡세다 - Something difficult  “카페에서 알바하는데 생각보다 빡세더라.” = “Working at a cafe is so much harder than I thought.”

Korean Language Resources 2 - Have fun learning Korean!

Who said that learning Korean has to be boring? Trust me, it can be really fun. I made a list of sites that help learning Korean through games, quizzes, flashcards and more. Of course, they will not make you fluent, but it is a very efficient way to start. Hope you guys enjoy.

Korean words and phrases lists

English-Korean vocabulary quizzes

Korean word game

Memorizing basic Korean

Learn Korean by making mistakes!

When you are learning a new language you are exactly like a little kid learning how to speak and being alphabetized, so why not try to learn Korean they way kids learn? The links below are destined to kids learning to speak Korean or even English. The games, cartoons and songs will help your pronunciation and memorizing skills and make your experience learning Korean even more pleasant and fun. I used this kind of method a lot when I was starting to learn Korean and it is very helpful.

Can you please tell me the difference between 에게,에게서,한테, 한테서 and 께 ?

Korean Particles (to) 에게/한테/께

These three particles can all be used to indicate that you are doing (usually giving) something TO somebody. 에게, 한테 and 께 all have the same meaning, but ~한테 is usually used in conversation, ~에게 is usually written (although it is still said in conversation very often) and ~께 is used when the person you are giving something to requires respect (께 is the honorific form of 에게/한테).

아버지는 아들에게 돈을 준다 = The father gives money to his son나는 학생들한테 한국어를 가르쳤어 = I taught Korean to the students저는 부장님에게 그 사실을 말할 거에요 = I will tell that (fact) to my boss

Note that just because you use 께 doesn’t mean that your sentence needs to end in a polite way. 께 is used when the person who is being given is of high importance, regardless of who you are talking to. For example, if I was a teacher, talking to my student, talking about something being given TO the principal, I could say:

나는 책을 교장선생님께 줬어 = I gave the principal a bookNote here that there is actually an honorific word for “주다,” which is “드리다.” You have not learned about these honorific words, so I have not used it in this sentence. I will introduce these in Lesson 39.

Korean Particles (from): ~에게서/한테서/(으)로부터

You learned in Lesson 12 that ~에서 can be used to mean “from” in a wide variety of situations. ~에게서/한테서 can also have the translation of “from,” but they are used in a more restricted way.

~에게서/한테서 has the meaning that is opposite of ~에게/한테/께, which means it is used when somebody receives something from somebody. These particles are attached to the person from whom one receives something from. For example:

나는 나의 여자친구에게서 편지를 받았어 = I received a letter from my girlfriend

The “thing” that is being received doesn’t need to be something physical. It could be something abstract like stories, explanations, or other things. For example:

저는 교감선생님에게서 한국어를 배웠어요 = I learned Korean from my vice principal저는 그 것을 친구한테서 들었어요 = I heard that from my friend

A very similar particle is ~(으)로부터. This particle can also be attached to the person from whom one receives something from. For example:

나는 나의 여자친구로부터 편지를 받았어 = I received a letter from my girlfriend저는 교감선생님으로부터 한국어를 배웠어요 = I learned Korean from my vice principal저는 그 것을 친구로부터 들었어요 = I heard that from my friend저는 친구들로부터 사랑을 많이 받았어요 = I received a lot of love from friends아버지로부터 선물이 왔어요 = A present came from my father

~(으)로부터 can also be used when receiving something from a non-person thing (a company/the government/etc). For example:

나는 돈을 정부로부터 받았어 = I received money from the government (the recording incorrectly says “받았어요“)이 것을 하늘로부터 받았어요 = I received this from the sky

However, you cannot use ~에게서/~한테서 to indicate that you received something from a non-person.

To summarize, ~(으)로부터 can be used to indicate that one receives something from a person or non-person. ~에게서 and ~한테서 have a similar meaning, but can only be used when one receives something from a person.

There are plenty of opportunities to learn Korean. However, not everyone has the luck to attend a language program or find a tandem partner. So, there are many websites helping you to study Korean. I think the best website still is Talk To Me In Korea. They offer a full curriculum of chapters...
