language learning is such a personal thing that there is no “right” or “wrong” way of doing it. it’s whatever works on bringing YOU closer to YOUR goal.
you want to watch tv shows but don’t really care for speaking with others? yay!! no speaking practice needed.
you want to learn quickly for an upcoming trip? yay! text book phrases and simple grammar.
you’re a beginner and it’s been 10 years? 2 weeks? 6 months? it doesn’t matter. as long as you are working towards bringing YOURSELF closer to what YOU want to achieve, you have succeeded: you are succeeding; you are doing great.
i find that so much demotivation comes from comparison and/or trying to follow other's advice too closely. if anki decks don't work for you, that's fine! if duolingo works well for you, then use it!
this language learning thing, it should be enjoyed. in the sea full of deceptive polyglot stories and videos on top of videos attempting to understand how to learn languages in "the fastest way possible" sometimes we should sit back and ask ourselves, "when is just learning things, enough"?
with that i hope you all continue working towards your dreams! whether you want to become a translator or just watch a few more movies in your target language, you can do it. i know you have it in you.

One-Page Masterlist
안녕하세요! Hey everyone! I recently got an ask about my old masterlist, which is the same as my broken-down masterlist except it has all of my lessons on one page, rather than on multiple separate posts. Some may find this expanded version easier to navigate, so I’ll keep this up for y’all! My broken-up masterlist, of course, will still be available for those who find that more helpful :)

Korean Slang을 좀치네요~
A casual phrase that was been around for a while 
뭐뭐.. “좀 하다”
“Done a bit of this / Dabbled in / Done this a bit in my day”
Simply put, it is a playful way of saying someone has done something quite a bit or is pretty good at something. Which is why it’s generally used with the ~네(요) or 거든(요) grammar endings. 
For example
“야 너 롤 해??”
“Do you play LoL (League of Legends)?”
“응, 나 좀 하지”
“Yeah, I play a bit”
But this has changed from 하다 (To do) to 치다 (To play a sport or instrument) but still can be used in everyday context.
So instead of saying “너 베이킹 잘 하네!”
“You’re pretty good at baking!”
You can say
“와아, 이 빵 잘 구웠네. 너 좀 치네”
“Woah, you baked this bread so well. Guess you’re pretty good at baking”
As always, it’s not a direct translation, but you get the gist of it. 
이제 구독자분들도 한국어를 좀 치시네요~
(Now you (the readers) know a bit of Korean too)

Checklist for starting a language
- (if needed) learn the alphabet
- basic grammar for forming words and pronunciation
This process alone would take a few hours maybe 2-3 depending on the difficulty and the difficulty depends on your native language
- 1000 most common words in your native language (translate to target language)
Translate favorite medias into target language
This could be songs, movie quotes, scenes, or anything from your own writing.
Attempt to pronounce these by looking at the writing.
I’ve been making flash cards for alphabet and sounds
I’m new to language learning so if anything I said is less effective than another strategy please let me know.

Currently learning a new language
And
Fuck
It's hard
But I keep telling myself "I'm a toddler, scratch that, a baby, learning a new language, hearing it for the first time, trying to piece the words together"
It takes native speakers months, no years, to learn their native language.
I've been at it for a month
I'm not gonna get it in a month
It's gonna take me years
But if I'm willing to put the work in.........

If you're learning Korean, you might have encountered the word "어차피" (eo-cha-pi) at some point. It's a useful word that can be translated to "anyway," "in any case," or "after all." When you use "어차피," you're often indicating that something is inevitable or necessary, regardless of other circumstances. To use "어차피", you simply need to add it to the sentence. E.g. 어차피 늦었으니까 천천히 와. (It's late anyway, so take your time.) 어차피 다른 선택지가 없어. (There’s no other option anyway.) 그 사람은 어차피 나를 싫어하는 거야. (That person hates me, after all.) "어차피" is often used with grammar like ~(으)니까 or -(으)ㄴ/는데 to add more context. E.g. 어차피 해야 할일이니까 빨리 하고 끝내는게 좋지않겠어요? (Because it's something you have to do anyway, isn't it better to hurry up and finish it?) 어차피 시간이 없는데 일찍 가는 게 좋을 거야. (Anyway, since we don't have much time, it's better to leave early.) 어차피 지나간 일이니까 다시 말하지 말아요. (Since it's a thing of the past anyway, let's not talk about it again.) 어차피 밖에 비가 내리고 있는데 조금더 이야기를 나누자 (It's raining outside anyway, so let's talk a little bit more.)

one thing about learning languages is that yes, learning in itself is fun but what’s even greater is the fact that all your other interests and hobbies can be looked at with another shade of light. I personally love philosophy and to be able to read another language’s nuances and concepts and understand it more than you ever could with a translation? incredible.

Semester in SK: Korean Curse Words
안녕하세요 여러분! I’m sharing yet another Instagram post with you all--this one is about a bunch of Korean curse words! Very silly, I know, but curse words are a big part of any language and can be fun to learn about! Of course, be careful when using these and please do not use them often--I’m just sharing them for fun and so you can recognize them if you hear them :) I hope you enjoy! 화이팅!

anon asked: i am a beginner and I want to learn Korean. I know that you have your masterlist about what to do next and its really good to look for self study resources but i’m only 18 and i do not have money for a course to learn. what is your advice because i know you say to take a class when you can thank you so much 
Coming out of this hiatus to say:
Take FREE classes on Coursera. This is not sponsored, not an ad, not a gimmick. If you’re really at a beginner level and you need that Academic Input of any language, please, please PLEASE take free courses where you can. If you want to take TTMIK too, please do that as well! It’s free to sign up and you don’t need the books. 
Taking free Korean classes on Coursera has some awesome benefits from a linguistics standpoint. First off, you get a structured curriculum created by language experts who know their stuff. They break down the language step by step, so you can really understand how it works. Plus, the interactive lessons and exercises on Coursera keep things interesting and help you practice listening, speaking, reading, and writing. And here's the cool part: you can learn from experienced instructors and chat with other learners from around the world. So, if you want to dive into Korean (in a class like setting), give Coursera a shot. 
You might have to self-regulate your studying -- as in, complete the course at your own pace. But if you’re diligent and motivated, then please check that out. 
TTMIK
Coursera Korean Courses (browse a little (because not all of them are about learning Korean) and choose the free option)
Hope that helps! Happy Learning :)
