Children's Books in Korean

I have uploaded my small collection of Korean children’s books in PDF form. Since I am just learning Korean I summarized a few of them based on the pictures, so please excuse some of the titles!  There are 4 types of PDF’s in each folder, full color editions of the book with pictures (title.pdf) or just the text of the book (titletext.pdf). There are also black and white editions for those who want to print them off to write on them for translating. I’ve also included a zip file for those who want all 4 files. 

Categorized based on difficulty** : 

Beginner

Bear Adventure

Counting Monkeys 

Cow carries a rice bag

Kids and the Storm

Wheat Kids

Intermediate

Heidi

The Nutcracker

The Prince and the Pauper

Advanced(ish)

Pelé - (It’s a short biography)

Hope that these books will encourage and help those who are starting to learn Korean! 화이팅!!!!! **…in the realm of children’s books but I could totally be wrong!

Sea creatures

* Kanji here are pretty much unnecessary (I just love kanji) so I’m writing readings in katakana - that’s how these words are most likely to be written in actual text.

鯨 「クジラ」 whale 鯱 「シャチ」 orca 鮫 「サメ」 shark 鮪 「マグロ」 tuna 鰯 「イワシ」 sardine 蛸 「タコ」 octopus 烏賊 「イカ」 squid 海月 「クラゲ」 jellyfish 海老 「エビ」 shrimp 海鼠 「ナマコ」 sea cucumber 海豚 「イルカ」 dolphin 河豚 「フグ」 blow fish 人手 「ヒトデ」 starfish 平目 「ヒラメ」 flounder 熊之実 「クマノミ」 clownfish 蝶々魚 「チョウチョウウオ」 butterfly fish 針千本 「ハリセンボン」 porcupine fish 竜の落し子 「タツノオトシゴ」 seahorse

I love how kanji in popcupine fish are basically ‘needles, thousands of them’ - 本「ほん」, among other things, is also a counter for long cylindrical objects. Like needles. Neat. Dolphin is ‘sea pig’, while fugu is ‘river pig’, jellyfish - ‘sea moon’, sea cucumber is ‘sea mouse’, starfish is ‘human hand’, clownfish is ‘bear fruit’ (why though), flounder is ‘flat eyes’. And seahorse is like ‘Dragon’s illegitimate child’. Seriously! Wow.

Hey Mirko! So, I'm about to get my Italian citizenship, as my family is of Italian descent. But I never bothered learning the language, as my parents don't speak it and my mother tongue is Spanish. Do you think it would perhaps sound a bit disrespectful or strange if I don't learn it, despite being a citizen (I wanna move to Europe as well, but not to Italy exactly)? I'm a language enthusiast and I'm really passionate about it but somehow Italian never caught me...

Hey. Don’t get an Italian citizenship then? Your parents are of Italian descent… but you aren’t. You don’t speak the language and you’re not even culturally Italian, so why bother? Also, how can you get the citizenship? Your parents have to be born here and you’d have to reside in Italy for at least 3 years before getting it. It is a bit disrespectful. And also meaningless, if you ask me, considering you are not Italian. Just… Don’t get a citizenship and just stay as a tourist.

[langsandlit]

Preach it! I’m just as appalled tbh

[langsandlit]

[plurilinguismo]

About the how: I think that the anon meant that their parents are Italian citizens and, even without being born in Italy or having actually lived here, they can ask for Italian citizenship by jure sanguinis (right of blood). But for the rest, I have to agree: what’s the point?

Idk I think that we as Italians consider Italian all the people who have lived here for a while, everyone who descends from Italian migrants is just [other nationality] of Italian descent. Our law allows people to reclaim the citizenship of their parents but if you have no intention of living here or even learn our language, again, why?

V -게

🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉

This suffix is attached directly to the verb roots, regardless of their 받침. It is used when the subjects of the clauses are not the same and it can have two different functions:

1. ADVERB - how/in which way an action occurs

ex: 나는 머리를 짧게 잘랐어요 = I cut my hair (lit. “I cut my hair short)

ex: 어제 늦게 자서 조금 피곤해요 = Yesterday I slept late so I’m a bit tired

ex: 얼굴이 빨갛게 됐어요 = My face got red

2. AIM/OBJECTIVE - It expresses the aim of the action of the main clause

ex: 사진을 찍게 모두 모이세요 = Gather together to take the photo

ex: 감기가 빨리 낮게 약을 드세요 = Take the medicine to recover fast from your cold

!! =/= (으)러 !!

(으)러 can be used EXCLUSIVELY with the verbs 가다 and 오다, and the subject of the clauses must be the same

!! =/= 아서/어서 !!

아서/어서 express the CAUSE and not the aim of the main clause’s verb 🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉🍉
