Help?

Hello,

3 years ago was the first time I listened to a korean song. I really like the sound and writing. Since I like learning languages I also wanted to learn Korean. But it was the first time that I'm learning it by myself and not at school. In the beginning I studied it 3/4 times in a week but then I got busy with school and summer came etc. so I stopped. I'm already a few months trying to get back to my old schedule which contains that I should at least study it 3 times in a week…

시작해요!

안녕하세요 여러분~~ 나는 도로타예요. 폴란드 사람이에요 그리고 스물한 살이에요 (yes, I'm 2ne1 right now kkkk).

I started learning Korean because I had met some awesome Korean people when I moved to a dormitory. Luckily for me, I could take a Korean language course at my university, and now I'm at the end of my A1 course, which is obviously not satisfactory enough! I've also started learning with TTMiK, but I don't always have time... However, I will try hard to change that!



Please take good care of me, let's…

Hello everyone!

I am trying to learn Korean using the Korean Wiki Project and I am confused about a few things.

For the word  고구마 "ko-gu-ma" how can I tell when the Hangul letter for "N" is to be pronounced first as a "g" or last as a "k". That word when written looks like it should be "ko-KU'ma" not "ko-GU-ma".

Also, why is the ㅗ vowel pronounced as "oh" also pronounced as "ew" and how can I know what sound applies when?

please email me at…

My name is Lindy and I'm  24 years old. I just recently graduated from university and got my LL.B. I am currently just helping out at my parents' shop. I hope to make some new friends here and learn to speak/understand Korean through this site :)

Nice to meet you all...please take care of me  :)
