some are totally wrong. most seem close, but the romanization is terrible! they leave out tons of letters/sounds. for example, they listed "tatari" for "masturbation". in hangul, it's "딸딸이" (this word is actually onomatopoeic!). a better (and i believe, the current official) romanization would be ddalddari.

In addition to Tagalog, they have Bisaya and Cebuano. Impressive...

Some? Many are totally wrong. And the romanization was giving me a headache.

If you want to swear in Korean, you're better off getting the book "Making out in Korean". Way better translations, and all in hangul.

I've got the revised edition if that makes any difference. Looking at it again, yeah, the romanizations are horrendous, but when the expression is written in hangul AND in katakana AND in hiragana AND phonetically as well, the romanizations are superfluous and unnecessary.

Wait...are you seriously going to fault these guys for their romanization when Koreans themselves can't friggin' get it right?
