줄임말 (Slang Part 2: Internet Friends)

So you’re still texting those Korean friends and you’re comfortable now, let’s get a little bit lazy. To write as fast as possible in Korean you gotta use those consonants (except ㅗ), LETS GO!

ㄱㅊ - 괜찮(괜찮아) > It’s okay ㄱㄷ - 기달(기다려) > Wait ㄱㅇㄷ - 개이득 > F***ing lucky / SCORE ㄱㄱ / ㄱㄱㅅ - 고고/고고싱 > Go Go ㄴㄴ - 노노 > No no ㅇㄱㄹㅇ / 일겅 - 이거레알 > Too true (this is real) ㅇㅈ - 인정 > Right / Definitely (often both a question and answer) ㅊㅋ - 추카(축하해) > Congratulations ㄷㄷ - 덜덜 > Shiver ㅇㅇ - 응응 > Yep yep ㅂㅂ - 바이바이 > Bye bye ㅁㅊ - 미친 > Crazy ㅇㄷ - 어디 > Where are you? ㅇㅎ - 아하 > A-ha! ㅗ - 엿먹어 > Middle finger  ㅎㅇ - 하이 > Hai (hi) ㅈㄲ - 잠깐 (잠깐만) > Wait ㄱㅅ - 감사 (감사합니다/고마워) > Thanks ㅇㅋㅇㅋ > Ok ok! (agreeing excitedly)

Hopefully this helps with those rushed texts, or maybe now you can understand those rapid fire messages in Overwatch (that’s my real reason.)

FUN FACT!

IT WASN’T JUST ANY OLD DUDE WHO DECIDED, “HEY I WANT TO CREATE A KOREAN ALPHABET.”

IT WAS KING SEJONG, WHO ORDERED HIS ROYAL SCHOLARS TO CREATE THIS ALPHABET SO READING AND WRITING COULD BE ACCESSIBLE TO EVERYONE, EVEN THE PEASANTS. IT WAS PURPOSELY DESIGNED TO BE EASY TO LEARN.

SO SHOUT OUT TO KING SEJONG, WHO REALIZED BEFORE MANY OTHERS THE IMPORTANCE OF UNIVERSAL LITERACY.

YOU GO KING SEJONG, FOUR FOR YOU KING SEJONG

hello, what's the difference between 그러나, 그렇지만, 그런데 and 하지만 and when do we use them? thanks in advance!

They’re all just different versions of the word but. 그러나, is rarely used in speech. 그렇지만 and 그런데 (shortened ver. is 근데) are usually used before a rebuttal. So if you were to say “But this is better.” In Korean it would be “그렇지만 저게 더 좋잖아(요).” Or “그런데 (근데) 저게 더 좋잖아요.”. 하지만 is more commonly used in speech than 그러나 but otherwise it’s the same.

But none of the four are used that commonly but the shortened version; 근데 is used more commonly and often than the other four. But 근데 is usually used when you are speaking in banmal! The other four are more commonly used with honorifics! :)

Sorry for the long answer but hopefully it answered your question! :)

빨간 모자 - Little Red Riding Hood (Red Hat) Pt. 4

Hey everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve done a Little Red story, sorry for the wait! I hope you enjoy it ~ Study hard :) 

*it’s a little short today, but nonetheless work hard

하지만 빨간 모자는 계속 꽃을 찾아 다녔습니다. 그녀가 더 가져갈 수 없을 만큼 꽃을 모은 후에야, 할머니가 생각나서 할머니 댁으로 향하기 시작했습니다. 빨간 모자가 할머니 댁에 도착했을 때, 문이 열려 있어서 놀랐습니다. 할머니 방으로 들어갔을 때, 모든 것이 너무 이상해서 빨간 모자는 생각했습니다. ‘맙소사. 내가 왜 이렇게 무서워하지? 나는 할머니 댁에 있는 것을 좋아하잖아!’ 빨간 모자가 말했습니다. “안녕하세요.” 하지만 대답은 듣지 못했습니다. 빨간 모자가 할머니 침대로 다가가서 커튼을 젖혔습니다. 거기에 할머니가 두건을 깊게 눌러쓰고 누워있었고 매우 이상해 보였습니다. 

Vocab: 어휘 ♡ 할머니 - grandma ♡ 빨간 모자 - Red Hat / Little Red Riding Hood ♡ 계속 - continuously ♡ 만큼 - enough ♡ 모든 - all / everything ♡ 댁 - house ♡ 문 - door ♡ 방 - room ♡ 너무 - very ♡ 맙소사 - oh my god / god! ♡ 왜 - why ♡ 대답 - answer / reply ♡ 침대 - bed ♡ 커튼 - curtain

Verbs: 동사 ♡ 가지다 - to take / to have  ♡ 모으다 - to gather ♡ 시작하다 - to start ♡ 도착하다 - to arrive ♡ 놀라다 - to be surprised ♡ 열다 - to open ♡ 이상하다 - to be weird ♡ 생각하다 - to think ♡ 무서워하다 - to be scared of ♡ 말하다 - to say ♡ 못하다 - to be bad (in this case - there was no answer) ♡ 다가가다 - to get closer ♡ 젖히다 - to throw back ♡ 보다 - to see

~ This sentence is translated weirdly, but essentially it means: Grandmother was laying there, and she looked very strange / weird - 거기에 할머니가 두건을 깊게 눌러쓰고 누워있었고 매우 이상해 보였습니다.

빨간: “아, 할머니, 귀가 정말 크시네요!” 늑대: “내가 너의 목소리를 더 잘 듣기 위해서란다!” 빨간: “아, 할머니, 눈이 정말 크시네요!” 늑대: “내가 너를 더 잘 보기 위해서란다!” 빨간: “아, 할머니, 손이 정말 크시네요!” 늑대: “내가 너를 더 잘 잡기 위해서란다!” 빨간: “하지만, 할머니, 무서울 만큼 큰 입을 가지셨네요!” 늑대: “내가 너를 더 잘 잡아먹기 위해서란다!” 늑대가 그것을 말하자마자 침대에서 뛰어나와 그 불쌍한 빨간 모자를 잡아먹었습니다.

Vocab: 어휘 ♡ 귀 - nose ♡ 목소리 - voice ♡ 정말 - very ♡ 위해서란다 - (kind of means like ‘better with’) ♡ 눈 - eyes (not to be confused with snow) ♡ 손 - hands  ♡ 입 - mouth ♡ 불쌍한 - pitiful / pathetic

Verbs: 동사 ♡ 크다 - to be big ♡ 듣다 - to listen ♡ 잡다 - to catch ♡ 잡아멱다 -  to eat up

Comprehension Sentences:

1. When Little Red Riding Hood arrived at her grandmother’s house, what did she see? And how did she react? 2. Where was the wolf hiding? 3. What were the things that Little Red Riding Hood noted about her ‘grandmother’? And how did the wolf react?

*please read for comprehension - do not rely on a translator

Hi! I just recently started learning Korean and i encountered two words for shoes: 신발 and 누두. what are the differences and how do i use them in a sentence?

Hey! I’ve actually never seen 누두 used as ‘shoe’ before - haha frankly I’ve never seen the word until now. There’s no translation for it that means ‘shoe’ so 신발 is the correct term for [a pair of] shoes! Thank you for the ask :)

Some fractured fairy tale ideas...

- Cinderella went to the ball to kill the prince.

- “All hail Alice, the Queen of Hearts.”

- Rapunzel is the witch’s illegitimate daughter, and she is being kept safe from a king who would have her killed on sight.

- The Little Match Girl is a now phantom luring people to their deaths.

- Little Red Riding Hood is a werewolf.

- “So… You’re the Pied Piper, eh? I thought you’d be taller.”

- Princess Snow White and the evil Snow Queen? One and the same.

- “If you value your life, my life, the lives of everyone in this city… you won’t wake the sleeping princess.”

- The land of the Twelve Dancing Princesses is falling apart at the seams, and the rest of reality with it.

- A witch who made some bad decisions in her youth is forced to adopt and raise a child.

- After Jack the Giant Killer ruthlessly murdered their king and threw their world into turmoil and war, the inhabitants of the Sky Kingdom must rebuild their lives.

- “What… what is it?” “A firebird – the last of her kind.”

[curlicuecal]

wait, is “I thought you’d be taller” implying the Pied Piper is a child, a rat, or a Jedi warrior?

You shouldn’t be treating nb people like the secret sexy 3rd gender. Nb people don’t look like a mash of male and female, they’re not sexy androgynous twinks

[gutter-guy]

white skinny androgynous nb people reblogging this and saying shit like “Well this is what I look like! So I feel represented!” Are literally part of the problem. I’m not saying that no nb people are white/skinny/andro, I’m saying that those are the only type of nb bodies that get represented 

[quixoty]

its nice, isnt it, when nonbinary people are visibly distinct from binary people? its easy, isnt it? you can remember to use “they” for people who have no visible breasts or beards, right? no need to challenge the notion of male vs female if nonbinary people have their own look, isnt that right?

its time to step the fuck up and really understand that nonbinary looks like anybody. nonbinary looks like you. nonbinary looks like your family and friends and it looks like the strangers who you thoughtlessly call “he” or “she” because of their appearance.

really supporting nonbinary people means understanding that theres no visual tell - you wont recognise all of us as nonbinary on sight. you have to actually LISTEN to us. you have to BELIEVE us. and it means challenging your assumptions about gender, starting with the assumption that youre an ally to trans people while youre still doing puerile shit like gendering body parts and clothes.

NONBINARY LOOKS LIKE ANYBODY. ANY BODY CAN BE NONBINARY.
