한글 배우기 (Learn Korean)

I promised my lovely friend and subscriber to write about verbs next but I realized how rushed I was being. I also read over the last chapter and realized how bad my typos were *winces*.

Sorry mate, I was rushing too much and I realized that I should start with the basics.

Anyways.....

DATES.

Not like the "going out with a hot boyfriend/girlfriend" kind of date (I wish) but like the "oh crap my test is on the 26th of February and I didn't study" kind date.

But in all seriousness, I do indeed have a test tomorrow but screw it all amirite? Jk grades are important don't ever take my advice.

Okay so in Korea, we generally don't use names for the months. We use numbers.

So when we write dates it'll be like,

#월 #일, ####년

월 (weol)- month

일 (eel)- day

년 (nyeon)- year but it also means /wench/etc.etc.

날 (nahl)- also means day but used in a different context

Like 

오늘 무슨 날이야?

Oh-neul moo-seun nahl-ee-yah?

What kind of day is it today?

In America this sounds really weird, but in Korea it basically means:

What holiday/ special day (ie. anniversary, birthday, etc.) is it today?

So just be aware that 일 and 날 are completely different depending on the context.

So you would write:

(Month)월 (day)일, (year)년

1- January

2- February

3- March

4- April

5- May

6- June

7- July

8- August

9- September

10- October

11- November

12- December

 

 

 

Days of the week:

월요일 (weol-yoh-eel)- Monday 

화요일 (hwa-yoh-eel)- Tuesday

수요일 (soo-yoh-eel)- Wednesday

목요일 (mok-yoh-eel)- Thursday

금요일 (geum-yoh-eel)- Friday

토요일 (toh-yoh-eel)- Saturday

일요일 (eel-yoh-eel)- Sunday

Most of the time, since it's bothersome to write out the whole word, if you check the weather or stuff, it'll just shorten it like

Okay, this was really short because I have to study for that test ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

Hello! I'm your 11th upvoter! This is realllly good for me to learn more Korean, since my parents couldn't afford a real Language class. Although all of it is confusing and only make my head hurt, I will learn one by one until I ace it since the main problem is I can talk a bit Korean and understand some of it but could not write it at all :-( the only korean word that I know is 카이 and 디으 which is no help at all xD exo-l here~! Hahahaha I will definitely take this as a learning class online. Thank you, btw!

HELP HELP!
Ok, now that I've got your attention. ^~^;
I have a question regarding this 본. I understand that it's not mentioned in your lessons but I've been seriously searching for the meaning of this character. I don't get it at all... Oh and if you're wondering, I got the character from SHINee's song Like a Fire. I'm trying to learn Korean with songs hehehe. ^~^
