I checked out a few of the videos and they are pretty well done. I am fluent in Korea and I sure wish such videos had been available when I was learning!
The guy does them on his own time and offers them for free. Good for him.
Great quality and his pronounciation is damn good too.
So they are a bit on the "cutey cutey" side, who gives a damn...the content is excellent and a learner gets put off by his style he or she is just missing out on a potentially great learning tool.
A fantastic tool for anyone who wishes to supplement their learning resources for acquiring Korean proficiency.
Well done Billy. |
Hey Patrick as someone who is just starting to learn Korean what websites/programs would you recommend? I'm currently using "Talk To Me in Korean" and am enjoying it thus far. Also used some of "Professor Oh's" youtube videos to teach myself the alphabet.
Thanks. |

당신 is the polite word for you, although ajosshis and ajummas prefer you say adjosshi/ajumma. You dont really use pronouns like he/she/you like you do English with Korean. |

I've noticed that in work situations people usually refer to each by their job title- teacher, principal, etc. Personal pronouns are not used.
I thought 당신 could be translated as honey or darling. It's probably best to avoid using it with a stranger. |

| I hear Koreans use it albeit rarely. Yes they refer to everyone by their title not name. Same goes for 오빠, 형, 언니, 누나, etc. Also never address an elder by their first name in case you didnt know, thats very rude here. |
