4th of September
4th of September - day 27 of 29
Hello everyone! Yesterdays exam went really well and I’m so relieved! I also drove to the exam hall for the first time!! Normally I’m at my student housing, but since I don’t have that anymore next year, I now have to drive (or take public transit) to my campus.
Today I began revising for my last resit on Monday, finally! Wish me luck!
Have a great evening!
also: new nails down below hehe
New day, New start :)
BunnyBunny is reminding you to not forget to take your meds ♡
Is anyone interested in doing a language exchange? I need someone to practice my vEry poor german and/or French with and in exchange I can help them with Arabic or English? Kinda like a study buddy thing? Idk I'm kinda new to this so... Hit me up if you're interested! :)
Level 1 — Lesson 1
Hi! This blog is made for korean learners who use TalkToMeInKorean as a main ressource. We will provide you complements to their lessons, such as examples, vocabulary and expressions. We are definitely not trying to replace TTMIK ! This blog wouldn’t even exist without them :)
LVL 1 LESSON 1 : 안녕하세요, 감사합니다
TTMIK first lesson is about how to say Hello and Thank You. Please refer to it before reading this post. (http://talktomeinkorean.com/lessons/l1l1/ (PDF & MP3 available))
For those who may don’t know yet, there are two different speech level in korean, which are called « 존댓말 » and « 반말 ». « 존댓말 » is the polite / formal way of talking, whereas « 반말 » is the informal one. It is very important to know when to use them, so you don’t seem rude.
You have to use 존댓말 when :
- You’re talking to a stranger, or someone you don’t really know
- You’re talking to someone older than you
- You’re talking to someone you need to show respect to (teacher, boss, parents, etc.)
- You’re talking to friends that aren’t so close to you
You can use 반말 when :
- You’re talking to a close friend
- You’re talking to someone who is obviously younger than you
- You’re talking to someone your age
- The person you’re talking to, if she/he is older, gave you the permission to use 반말
It’s important to mention level speeches when it comes to greeting. You won’t say « Hello » to a friend the same way as you would say it to your teacher.
Hello, 존댓말 :
- 안녕하십니까? : very formal, often used in announcements / news
- 안녕하세요 : the most commonly used
- 여보세요? : used when answering the phone / interphone only
Hello, 반말 :
- 안녕 : could be translated as « Hi » (or « Bye », still in 반말)
- 안뇽 : wrong, but cute way of writting/pronouncing « 안녕 »
- ㅎㅇ : (koreanized version of « Hi », 하이, used when texting only)
Sentence examples (예문) in 존댓말 :
/!\ Those sentences may be a bit hard to understand. If you don’t, don’t worry. You will understand them through the next grammar lessons.
Vocabulary (단어) :
* 여러분 : everyone
* 여동생 : little sister
* 얘들아 : kids, guys (이 this + 아이들 kids + 아 calling someone) /!\ 반말
* 거기 : here
* 댁 : house (polite form of 집)
1. 여러분 안녕하십니까?
= Hello everyone. (in TV news)
2. 안녕하세요, 저는 박찬열입니다. 처음 뵙겠습니다.
= Hello, I am Park Chanyeol. Nice to meet you (literally : I am meeting you for the first time)
3. 안녕하세요, 저는 김지관의 여동생이에요.
Hello. I’m Kim Jikwan’s sister.
4. 여보세요, 거기 김진영 씨 댁입니까?
= Hello? Is this Kim Jinyeong’s house ?
5. 얘들아 안녕 !
= Hi guys / hi kids !
Now that you know how to use « Hello », let’s focus on « Thank you » :
Thank you, 존댓말 :
- 감사합니다 : most commonly used
- 고맙습니다
- 감사해요 : very few people use this
- 고마워요 : less formal than 고맙습니다 and 감사합니다. Use it with people you are close to
Thank you, 반말 :
- 고마워
If you had to remember only three ways to say « Thank you », it would be : 감사합니다 (formal, polite), 고마워요 (polite, to people you are close to), 고마워 (informal).
Sentence examples (예문) in 존댓말 :
/!\ Sadly, it may be too early for you to create sentences like « Thank you for […] ». But don’t worry, we will explain it later ! But here are some sentence examples that we will explain later :
Vocabulary (단어) :
* 이메일 : e-mail
* 보내다 : to send
* 많은 : a lot (noun form of 많다)
1. 이메일 보내줘서 고마워. (반말)
= Thank you for sending me an email !
2. 이메일 부내주셔서 감사합니다. (존댓말)
= Thank you for sending me an email.
3. 많은 예문을 주셔서 감사합니다.
= Thank you for giving us lots of sentence examples :)
That’s all for today !
If you have any question or any other sentence example, don’t hesitate to comment.
12/6 ▪ The holiday season can be stressful: finals to take, gifts to buy, and events to attend can build up in your to-do and make you want to take a holiday from the holidays. Try focusing your energy on the one task at a time, fighting that overwhelming feeling by connecting with the people around you and appreciating the enthusiasm of the season.
I’ve been gone so long! So much has changed but it’s all very good things! Currently studying at Starbucks. I love their Christmas cups! Do you like them? ❤️💚
