You guys are giving him 반말!
BTW OP, don't EVER EVER EVER EVER use a translator. Those things are so inaccurate.
I asked my Korean friend and here is what he recommends:
주말에 만나서 영화볼래요?
주말에 시간있으세요?
주말에 밥이나 같이 먹을래요?
주말에 데이트할래요?
주말에 저랑 놀래요? |
My wife says use the second one and if she says yes the fourth one. do not use the ones Cheonmunka suggested, first one is too blas� the second one amounts to asking asking her to sleep with you (implied not direct). |

I agree with Blackjack that this one would be best. It seems the most natural to me. |

Endo's right. At least as far as picking up girls you meet in the bar goes. I can speak Korean fairly well. I'm not completely fluent, but I can have conversations without having to think too hard about what I want to say. I've noticed that it's better to always start out in English and then later when her English fails just switch over to Korean like it's no big deal. It works wonders for keeping a K-girl's attention when there is plenty of competition around.
The OP's situation might be a bit different though as he's already met this girl and it's not a bar type situation. |

The form is (을)/ㄹ 래요. (no space, I just put the space so you can see it clearly)
It basically means: Shall we ~
먹다 --> 먹을래요.
밥을 먹을래요? - Shall we eat ?/ Do you wanna eat?
가다--> 갈래요
갈래요? - Shall we leave(go) / Do you wanna leave(go)? |

I know, it makes no sense to me either...for instance, I have no clue how to make "ㅜ" "ㅏ" "ㅔ" "ㅐ" and "ㅛ"
Granted the phone is old and a piece of junk, there's no reason it would have some characters and not others. |

| You may have to use a combination, like add a dot before or after ㅣ to make ㅓ or ㅏ, etc. Diff. phone brands have diff. systems for this, but it's surely possible. |

"ㅜ" --> -- then .
"ㅏ" --> | then .
"ㅔ" --> . then | then |
"ㅐ" --> | then . then |
"ㅛ" --> . then . --
-- = just a solid dash by the way. |

Ah, perfect...that's exactly how mine works. Kind of a confusing system imo, but oh well, it got my message written. |
