google drive of free korean language learning resources

hi everyone! because i put tutoring on hold while i am working full time but still want to provide help to those who want to start learning/want to practice their korean, i am continuously compiling material for free learning :)

resources are totally free!

most are typically aimed at children (which is great for beginners!!)

hangul practice

vocabulary building

printable/downloadable

example of scans:

example of grammar breakdowns:

i will be adding material over the coming weeks and continuously as i come across material! updates may be frequent or slow down at times.

note: resources are free, and they’re totally free to share and use! but please do not repost without credit, and because i buy these from my workplace with my own money and spend time scanning them and cleaning them up and organizing them, please consider tipping me as much as you’d like ♥️

here is the link to the drive! (sorry, can’t hyperlink on mobile currently)

enjoy, and thank you in advance! have fun and feel free to ask me any questions—i am a korean studies grad and was a tutor for the beginning korean classes at my university. i am happy to help however i can!

♥️ joey

How To Ask Questions In Korean

We’ll go over the most basic and easiest way to do it and then the most confusing, which is actually using the question words to form your own question. You should be familar with sentence structure first to understand this well. I have another post on it here.

The first way is to simply turn a normal sentence into a question by raising your intonation at the end of it. Like when you ask a question in English your voice goes up a little at the end of the sentence.

하교에 가요. (I am going to school.)

학교에 가요? (Are you going to school?)

The sentence doesn’t change, but the way you read it does. You can try it by reading these out loud or in your head above.

The Question Endings:

~ 입니까? / 습니까?

~니?

~ 나요?

The next way to ask questions is to simply attach one of these.

The formal high respect ~습니다 is never used as a question. When asking a question in this form, instead of using ~습니다 you must use ~ㅂ/습니까. ~ㅂ니까 gets added directly to stems ending in a vowel, and ~습니까 gets added after a stem ending in a consonant. You can do this with all tenses.

Past Tense: 았/었/했습니까

Present Tense: 았/었습니까 / 합니까

Future Tense: 겠습니까 | ㄹ 것입니까 / ㄹ 겁니까

When asking a question, instead of ending your sentences with ~아/어, you can end them with ~니. This is an informal way to ask a question, and you can do this in all tenses.

For example:

Past tense: 했니, 먹었니, 갔니, 이었니

Present tense: 하니, 먹니, 가니, 이니

Future tense (~겠): 하겠니, 먹겠니, 가겠니

Future tense (~ㄹ 것이다): 할 거니, 할 것이니, 먹을 거니, 먹을 것이니

You can use ~나(요) at the end of a sentence to ask a question also. It can be used to make a question sound slightly softer than the other ways to ask a question. However, ~나(요) is more often used with verbs and with 있다 and 없다.

It is possible to use this in the future tense, but it only sounds natural when applying it to the ~겠다 future conjugation. Adding ~나(요) to 이다 is typically not done, and therefore adding it to words that are conjugating using ~ㄹ/을 것이다 is unnatural.

Theres’s another ending i didn’t cover in this post : ㄴ가요? | It functions the same as -나요?

The most confusing one:

I’ll only cover the very basics in this post, but it can become more complex. Incase you don’t know the question words here is a list of basic Korean question words (What, when, where, who and why)

뭐 - what

언제 - when

어디 - where

누구 - who

왜 - why

어떻게 - how

Depending on which question word you are using, building a question can be really easy or really confusing.

Most question words are adverbs, which means it can be used/placed as an adverb in sentences. Adverbs can be used almost freely in sentences and technically do not have any specific location that they need to be used.

The most common position for these adverb-question words is before the verb. If there are other adverbs in the sentence (including the negative “안”) the question word is usually placed first. You may see these question words put at the end of a sentence as well. Remember the rule: before a verb - if you ever get overwhelmed.

Examples:

왜 늦었어요?

Why are you late?

한국에 언제 왔어요?

When did you come to Korea?

내 신발이 어디 있어요?

Where are my shoes?

오늘 오후에 뭐 할 거예요?

What are you going to do[your plans for] this afternoon?

어떻게 알았어요?

How did you find out?

In Korean, 누구 has the function of a pronoun. 누구 can be used in the place of a noun in a sentence – that is, it can be used to replace the object, the subject or as a noun before 이다.

This is the same in English – as you can see in the following three examples:

Who will study Korean tomorrow? – ‘who’ is the subject of the sentence.

Who will you meet tomorrow? – ‘who’ is the object of the sentence -“you” is the subject

Who is that person? = ‘who’ is ‘that person’ in the sentence

Examples:

누구를 만났어요? - who did you see/meet?

승규 씨가 누구입니까? - Who is Seung Kyu?

That's all for today's post. Check Out More Korean Lessons Here! Also check out my Spring Fling Challenge.

왜 우리는 웃으면 눈이 없어지지 #지민생일ㅊㅋ*

Why do our eyes disappear when we smile #JiminBirthday

*ㅊㅋ means either the sounds 'ch' and 'k' to mimic the sounds of laughter or the 'ch' may singularly be a short version of "축하" (congratulations) according to this HiNative page.

it's...missing smackjeeves hours..

telling myself if no one makes a good alternative for smackjeeves in the next like five years, im gonna start making one myself (only 10% serious)

i just miss like that atmosphere of 100% unmarketable, just comic sharing/making space.

where we all knew that 99% of the time the comics we see will never get finished bc ppl get busy, kids grow up and change interests ,etc. (i mention kids bc most of my memories of smackjeeves was when i was a teen, so it was a significant like developmental years as an artist kind experience for me)

like i remember most of the comics were like

barely legible sketch pages with like text written in mspaint.

there was absolutely no quality standard. and that's why it was so good

it made me as a kid feel like oh i can do comics! cause it can be WHATEVER YOU WANTED IT TO BE AND LOOK HOWEVER WAY.

and the collaborative ones on smackjeeves were so fun to look at

just overall.

having that. rough, crude, unmarketable space for art/comics was significant.

#hating the current comic spaces #the owner of smackjeeves had to sell smackjeeves to a korean mobile company that also owned a webcomic site cause the owner had health #issues and also struggled with funding the site costs #and he hoped that by being owned by a bigger company it would be taken care of better but it just eventually completely shut down #i dont have any hard feelings towards the creator ofc there's only so much an independent owner of a big site could do #so as much as i joke about i'll make it myself i do feel like it's unapproachable bc i feel like i'd run into the same issues with #not having the funds to run a site #but i am also very gungho and would be willing to just try it just for the sake of wanting bad comics to come back #please truly that was the most inspiring days for comic creating #i think beginner art and unmarketable art is like the backbone of art community imo #edit meant to write mobile GAME company not a phone comapny

Korean Learning - 2 months recap

I hadn't planned to study Korean during March, the Horrible Month of Study Work Sleep No Energy for Anything Else but I did end up downloading lingory, which was recommended to me on Tumblr. So here is my review

Lingory is like Duolingo, BUT there are more ads (one video add before and after every lesson) BUT there are no stupid hearts/lives. You can make as many mistakes as you want! That was liberating.

Every lesson (or Day) is usually divided in 3 sections: vocabulary, grammar and a final test. Every once in a while there is a "test day", with only a test, which rather felt like the rest days in those Chloe Ting challenges.

I really appreciated how some exercises allow you to "spell" the words by selecting the right syllables, rather than the complete word. It's v useful when learning Hangul.

It did teach me the bare basics and a bit of grammar but at around Day 20 it absolutely wants you to learn how to tell the time and the date and the days of the week like... who needs that. That's something you learn on your own skin by going through The Horrors when you get to Korea. Not now. I want to watch kdramas now. So it lost me after that, but I managed to complete 26 Days.

My verdict: it's fine if you want to mindlessly learn a little bit of Korean every day but not indicated for long-term goals or quick progress.

Month 3 plan

Today I completed the first lecture of the King Sejong Institute Beginner online class. It's fun and it's free! I also feel like it teaches grammar better than Lingory. Perhaps I will soon find out why Korean has two numeric systems, which Lingory wanted me to learn without explaining when to use which.

I plan to finish the course (which comprises 20 lectures) by the end of April. I want to try and work on it every day after dinner.

I'll create an Anki deck with words from the course that I find to be useful.

And I also want to read at least 1 balloon from Marry My Husband the webtoon in Korean every day to better my Hangul reading speed. I won't understand anything but whatever, it's fun anyway.

#I swear I didn't know the difference between Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday until I moved to the UK but whatever #lingory #korean learning #language learning #studyblr #langblr #king sejong institute #korean beginner

How To Make Commands & Requests Using: (으)세요, 아/어 주다, & -지 마세요

V + (으)세요 = Please (verb)

usage:

- to politely request, suggest something, or make a command

- can also be used to end a question to make the question more polite. (Requesting info)

- Ex: 영어 하세요? = can you speak English?

Ends in consonant - 으세요

Ends in vowel - 세요

- 세요 is a shortened version of -셔요, which comes from the suffix -시. -시 is used to make verbs and adjectives more polite

- (으)십시요 is the same thing as -(으)세요, but is a very formal way of giving commands.

Examples:

거기 앉으세요 - Please sit there.

내일 시험이 있으니 열심히 공부하세요.

Since there is a test tomorrow, please study hard.

물 더 주세요 - Please give me more water

아/어 주다 - Give; To do something for someone

usage:

- 주다 on it’s own means “to give”

- By adding ~아/어 주다 to the stem of a word, you can imply that the action is somehow beneficial to you (or whoever the action is being done for)

- It’s almost as if you’re telling someone to do you a “favor” and do it for you

- Conjugate the first verb before adding 주다

- Usually (으)세요 is added to make your request more polite

> 아/어 주세요 = Please do for me

Examples:

창문을 열어 주세요.

Please open the window. (For me)

선생님은 저에게 설명해 줬어요.

The teacher explained it to me.

아/어 주다 + negative situations

usage:

- 지 말다 is used when telling somebody *not* to do somthing.

- you can put ~아/어 주다 and ~지 말다 together to create the meaning of “please don’t do it for me”

- V -지 말아 주다 (지 말아 주세요)

Examples:

수업 시간 동안 자지 말아 주세요.

Please don’t sleep in my class.

저를 쳐다보지 말아 주세요.

Please don’t stare at me.

-지 마세요 - Don’t do it

usage:

- this is a form of 지 말다, except it’s a different meaning than we just learned

- 지 마 means you are commanding someone not to do something (not for you, but just in general)

- 지 마 + 세요 = polite command

Examples:

가지 마세요 - Please don’t go

너무 빨리 먹지 마세요 - Don’t eat your food too fast

슬퍼하지 마세요 - Please don’t be sad

MORE EXAMPLES OF ALL:

어떤 책을 읽으세요?

Which book are you reading?

그걸 내일까지 해 주세요.

Please have it done by tomorrow.

앞으로는 더 조심해 주세요.

Please be more careful in future.

샐러드와 드레싱을 섞지 말아 주세요.

Please don't mix the salad and the dressing.

담배는 피우지 말아주세요.

No smoking, please.

목이 아프면 말을 많이 하지 마세요.

If you’re sick, please don’t talk a lot.

엘리베이터를 타지 말고 계단으로 올라가세요.

Please don’t ride the elevator, but go up the stairs. (Instead)

박물관 안에서 사진을 찍지 마세요.

Please don’t take pictures inside of the museum.
