It has been about a week, I think, since I officially started the Summer Language Challenge! As one of the ways I will practice my Korean this summer, I’ve decided to compile a vocab list of words I’ve looked up each week while I write my Daily Random Korean Writings.
I got the idea for the “words i had to look up this week” vocab lists from @hsingasong‘s post here! I loved the idea a lot, so thank you!!
please point out any errors you may find!!
