9월 30일 🇰🇷 한국어.

Last night, I studied two lessons on level 6 which were 가장 ~중의 하나 to say “one of the most…” which is kinda easy to remember as well as the second lesson which was ~도 돼요?, ~도 괜찮아요?, ~도 될까요? for “do you mind if I…” and so ~아/어/여 주실래요? meaning “do you mind if you…” but since there are so many to remember things can get messy in my head 🙈🙈 I also have been very unproductive reviewing my Quizlet decks to study vocab. Yesterday, before having dinner, I practiced some of them but I still forget to do them every day. I hope I can adapt.

Have a radiant 수요일! 🌻🌻

Spent the day finishing off dramas, looking up research and starting my homework. One way that I study is by watching lectures with korean subs then making list of words that come up I don’t know. The video is from my research ethics class. The videos are only around 25 -30 minutes long and the class isn’t too difficult so I can mostly follow allow without having to look up too many words. My list usually end up around 20 words a week. My other classes are also slowly getting a bit more easy to understand I feel like I’m not completely lost. I still can’t get all the details and things, but if I prepare well before class the materials we will go over I can keep up. Since debate topics and presentations are all due Sunday, I read over all my classmate’s work and prepare the opinions and comments I want to make Monday so it usually makes class go by smoothly. we order delivery food all together as a class and eat during our lunch hour together and I get along well with everyone so it makes the environment less anxious. The only time I’ve gotten completely stressed is when I have to present readings because I need to read through pages of korean in class. I read extremely slow and mispronounced so many things. I was extremely embarrassed because my teacher stopped me to finish after 4 long pages but she and the rest of the class told me I did really well and she could tell how overwhelmed I was. It’s something I want to work on. During the semester all I can do is set very simple goals because I don’t have time for much. Still thinking about what I want to accomplish for October. Going to do some Chinese tonight and rest.

Phew its been a while since I’ve shared. I actually kinda a mishap with my emails but finally I got it back.

So, just wanted to share to anyone who may be reading this ^^. I’m finally done with my degree~~~

And to top it all off, I accepted a Master’s scholarship from my university, and also a part time position to be an engineering consultant for the university. I’m very grateful to the moon and back. I am really determined to work hard and get my Master’s and be a working engineer. I’m praying for strength and keeping my discipline.

Wish me luck🥺

Today we’re going to learn how to say “A is similar to B” and “A is the same as B”. Lesson 8 is focused on the usage with nouns and lesson 9 is focused on the usage with verbs.

Lesson 8

To say A is similar to B, you need to us -(이)랑 or -하고. Both of these have been explained in level 2 lesson 4.

비슷하다 = to be similar
A noun + B Noun + -(이)랑 or -하고 + 비슷하다 = A is similar to B
-(이)랑 is more formal than -하고

Examples:

A랑 비슷해요 = it’s similar to A
B하고 비슷해요 = it’s similar to B
도쿄는 서울이랑 비슷해요 = is Tokyo similar to Seoul?
도쿄는 서울하고 비슷해요 = is Tokyo similar to Seoul?

To say A is the same as B, you need to us -(이)랑 or -하고 as well.

같다 = to be the same
A noun + -(이)랑 or -하고 + B Noun + 같다 = A is the same as B

Examples:

A랑 같아요 = it’s the same as A
A하고 B는 같아요 = A and B are the same

If you use 같다 without the -(이)랑 or -하고, it has a different meaning

to be like
to look like
to seem to be

Examples:

거짓말 샅아요 = it seems to be a lie
로봇 같아요 = it looks like a robot

Lesson 9

You could also use 같다 with verbs (so without the -(이)랑 or -하고). In order to do so, you need to change the verbs into nouns. This has been explained in level 2 lesson 19.

Making verbs into nouns:

Present tense: verb stem + 는 것
Past tense: verb stem + (으)ㄴ 것
Future tense: verb stem + (으)ㄹ 것

Now after this it’s pretty easy again, just add the 같다 like you did with the nouns in lesson 8!

Examples:

눈이 오다 = to snow (active verb)
Present: 눈이 오는 것 같아요 = I think it is snowing
Past: 눈이 온 것 같아요 = I think it was snowing
Future: 눈이 올 것 같아요 = I think it will snow
Keep in mind, the 같아요 does not change according to the tense! The tense is shown with the turning verbs into nouns!

이상하다 = to be strange (descriptive verb)
이상한 것 샅아요 = I think it is strange

Languages of the world

**Southern Sami (åarjelsaemien gïele)**

Basic facts

Number of native speakers: 600
Official language: Norway (Hattfjelldal, Røros, Røyrvik, Snåsa)
Recognized minority language: Norway, Sweden
Script: Latin, 25 letters
Grammatical cases: 8
Linguistic typology: fusional, SOV
Language family: Uralic, Sami
Number of dialects: 2

History

1976 - approval of current orthography

Writing system and pronunciation

These are the letters that make up the alphabet: a b d e f g h i ï j k l m n o p r s t u v y z æ ö å.

Like other Sami languages, Southern Sami has the umlaut feature, which means that the vowel in the second syllable can change depending on the ending attached and the first vowel will likewise alternate.

Grammar

Nouns have no gender, two numbers (singular and plural), and eight cases (nominative, genitive, accusative, illative, inessive, elative, comitative, and essive). The essive case has no plural form.

Personal pronouns have three numbers: singular, plural, and dual.

Verbs are conjugated for tense, mood (indicative and imperative), person, and number. They also have three numbers, like personal pronouns.

Dialects

There are two dialects: Northern and Southern. Differences between them are very small and mainly phonological.

Svensk poddhistoria, a playlist by Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DWSptDRAWosEA?si=JZ-Nn7pGRCKEfXtKkTzOlA

Apparently it’s the International Podcast Day today (lmao) and Spotify put together a playlist of some classic/well known Swedish podcasts and I thought it might interest you! Some of these aren’t active anymore but they all have a huge catalogue of episodes for you to practice your listening comprehension!

I also thought I’d share some of my favorite podcasts, I mainly like history, documentaries or casual conversation podcasts but if you want some suggestions for other types just message me and I’ll try to see what I can find!

My personal favorite podcasts:

P3 Historia - History documentary covering one person per episode (so you can pick and choose a lot based on your interests). Incredible music choices (we’re talking playing Alors on dance in the background while describing a Medieval wedding party).

Raseriet - About racism and feminism in Sweden (and abroad), the hosts have great personalities and the episodes are a mix of serious topics and chill conversations and anecdotes.

Podcasts I sporadically listen to:

Allt du velat veta - Informative episodes on a variety of different topics. They also have a 5 minute version of the podcast if you prefer something shorter.

Konsten att vara - Clara Henry and Gustav Järnberg talk about different things, very chill and friendly.

Mark & Jonas pod - The husbands Mark Levengood and Jonas Gardell (who are tv-presenters, authors and comedians I guess?) talk about different stuff. Mark is from Finland so you get to hear his fantastic accent.

P3 Musikdokumentär - Documentaries about different (often American, but sometimes Swedish) contemporary artists.

Språket i P1 - About the Swedish language, listeners send questions that a linguist answers.

Svenska folkets historia - About the lives of regular Swedes during history, not in chronological order so you can pick and choose a lot here too.

The Power Meeting Podcast - Pretty similar to Raseriet but with guys. One of them is American and usually talks in English, often compares a Swedish and American perspective.

Podcasts I want to listen to:

Diktatorer - As the titles suggests, it’s about dictators. I have heard good things about it and the host Parisa Amiri is a great person.

Idag i historien - Talks about something that happened on this day in history, new episodes every weekday, around 20 min long.

Sommar och vinter i P1 - Sweden’s most hyped radio program. Different Swedish personalities do an hour long monologue on any topic they want often linked to anecdotes from their life. The summer programs are more hyped and there’s this big thing when they present the speakers at the beginning of the summer. Greta Thunberg spoke this summer and there’s also an English version of her program if you want to get a feel for it.

So DeepL apparently drops German Umlaute (ä, ü, ö) sometimes, probably because it got its data from translations done by someone who didn’t have a German keyboard and was too lazy to copy in the Umlaute and/or thought that a, u and o are the same as ä, ü and ö; excuse me while I just

100 days of productivity

2/100 -September 28th (I forgot to make the post XD)

Had my first day of class!
Installed Duoling again. Until I get used to this new shedule, I’ll probably won’t be making any big study session for languages, and I prefer to AT LEAST not forget what I already know.
I prepared my notebooks for each class.

3/100 September 29th

Did my duolingo’s lesson! Two entire lessons of danish.
I read the notes one of my teacher sent us, and prepared my questions for tomorrow class.
I had a 2 hours long videocall with some classmates in my team and we discused the homework we have to hand in on monday, so we aren’t behind! (Yet)
