 |
|
Most frequent vocabulary:
1 ��
2 �ϴ�
3 �ִ� (ǰ�纸)
4 �ִ� (ǰ����)
5 �Ǵ�
Proper nouns:
1 �ѱ�
2 �̱�
3 �Ϻ�
4 ����
5 ��
Sentence connectors and sentence enders:
1 ��

3 ��
4 ��
5 ��

A full list of 58,437 most frequently used words published by the National Academy of the Korean Language can be downloaded in Excel or text (.txt) format. You'll need to sort by ����.
Funny thing is, I can't find �ܱ� anywhere in there, but I'd imagine that it'd fall between �ѱ� and �̱� in the nouns.

Babo is #2680.
Bballi is #572. I figure that would've been higher. |

I wish I knew about this word list 3 years ago.
I spent 70,000 weon to buy the Yeonsei list.
�ٺ� is #2282 on the Yeonsei list. |

I did wait a a few days before I posted this.
I hope that I am right in assuming '��' is not a word. |

I always thought that the most common word used in Korean was: ��. Just listen to some phone calls on the subway sometimes. �亸����? ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��, ��... (ad infinitim). I believe that the second most common Korean word would be: �ƴϾ� (extend this vowel for about 20 seconds and you got it right.  ) Hee hee. |

I would say �� ranks higher than �� in usage. Especially in Seoul. I think ���� would even be more prevalent than ��, in Seoul.  |

Yeah, that's because it only looks at written work of a certain size. Most written pieces aren't filled with �ֱ�~ ��¥? ��, ��, ��, ���̾� and so on. I wouldn't mind seeing that though; take the recordings from the subway and analyze that to see what people are actually saying. I bet a lot of the people at that Korean language institute won't understand.
(because they're old) |

Yeah. She's Thai. Thai women are super hot with fun personalities. 
Funny, I never hear �� that much but I always hear �� and "Yeah yeah" whenever some Adjosshi is having a phone conversation on the subway.
Whatever the case, Korean is an interesting language with a few words that are overused way too much. Kind of like English I guess |
