Okay, maybe I'm the one confused here, but many people on this board seem to refer to "Hangeul" as if it meant "Korean language" instead of "Korean alphabet" as I know it to be. Are Hangeul and Hanguk-uh interchangeable? How about Hanguk-mal?
Confusing... |

| �ѱ� refers to the writing system only, not the language though many expats screw that up. As far as I know �ѱ��� and �ѱ��� are interchangable. |

Time to study basic vocab, eh?
�� (gul) as in ���� means letter or character. Hence, we are talking about the alphabet.
�� (mal) is language. ���ϴ� means to talk.
�� (uh) is interchangeable with ��. ����, �Ͼ�, etc. |

�� is pure Korean, I believe.
�� is taken from Chinese ���� and it looks like this: ��
�� is a more useful word in other situations, and I use it more. Like this:
���� ������ �˾�?
Do you what I mean? |

| �� is more useful because it can be made into a verb - ���ϴ�. I dont think �� can be made into a verb, hence its usefulness is limited. |

bonehead, twit, and annoying S.O.B. cannot be made into verbs either, but their usefulness comes in handy when describing you. |

I'm not frustrated because you have superior skills at annoying people or that you have a superior ego matched with inferior social skills. I was merely pointing out the obvious. It's times like these that I miss Captain Obvious 2.0. |
