Quick Disclaimer
I just wanted to say that I’m no longer going to provide Portuguese translations on my vocabulary lists. The reason for that is because I noticed that very few of my followers actually speak Portuguese and those who do also speak English, and also because I think it’ll make my posts’ aesthetics look cleaner.
Thanks for following me 😊
Korean Vocabulary: Hanja 漢字 (pt. I)
Hanja (한자) is how chinese characters are called in Korean. For a really long time, Korean was mostly or completely written using 한자 and more than half of the words of the Korean language are of chinese origin, thus, have a 한자 equivalent. While not mandatory, I do believe that learning the most basic 한자 can make learning Korean easier, that’s why I decided to make this post. Note that Korea didn’t change from traditional characters to simplified ones! So I’ll be using their traditional forms.
