I've noticed a couple women in the forum who have this odd desire to learn korean...*ahem* i was with a korean guy for ...well....way too fuckin long...and welp...we had a kid...and i thought we were gonna get all married and stuff...but well...men suck so it didnt happen but i learned korean for him and my kid for 3 years straight...3 hours a day i studied it...so i'm here to help all you ladies who for some reason wanna learn it too (dont make the mistake of wasting your time learning it for a GUY cuz well...guys leave..but things you learn stick around to remind you forever of that pain)

I've decided to post a few 'common phrases' and some 'not so common', if you need to hear it spoken feel free to add me to msn and ill voice clip them for ya...

common phrases you'll need to learn to get through a conversation if you ever go to korea:

네 yes
아니오 no
감사합니다 thank you
안녕하세요? how are you?
나 i
나의 my
너 you
너의 your
우리 we or our erm...maybe both :P
<insert your name here> 입니다 i am <insert your name here>
미안해 i'm sorry
여보세요 hello but...this is only like...the telephone hello lol
사랑해요 i love you






ill add a little more when it isnt 4 in the morning and i havnt slept yet :P hope that helps

Thanks erm for someone who's not Korean literate, will it be a little too much to add konglish (is that the right word?) of the phrases? Sorry if its too much trouble.

why is no more characters than yes? is the timing to convince the chica to say yes? lol.

Thanks for that. I always wanted to learn korean. I recognize some of the characters. As sveta said it would be nice if someone can provide the phonetics or 'konglish'.

........

well you could just say 'neh' lol whatever haha

do you mean you want me to break it down into english sylabols?

yes. I can't read Korean unfortunately

Here's how to greet someone in Korean (I heard from some Koreans):

Onion on sale!

If you speak fast enough, you can really pull it off.
