Hello TL, I am currently trying to learn korean but what i really would like to learn is korean slang and
korean "ebonics". In English, no one can learn slang/ebonics without going out and talking to friends and the african american culture and saying "yo your fresh kicks are dope dawg" This is the kind of thing I would like to learn in korean if there is such a thing. If anyone is interested in being a kind,patient, teacher please pm me <3.

I can't help you out at all, but I'm really intested in why you would ever want to do this?? I feel like Koreans would be the type of people who would frown upon stepping all over their language like "african american slang" does to english.
Have you considered the MMO-Champion forum? You are just as irrational and delusional with the right portion of nostalgic populism. By the way: The old Brood War was absolutely unplayable

So you want to be able to say "yo dawg wassup?" instead of "hello, how are you?"

Why exactly? If you're not a native speaker learning slang isn't going to help you blend in, and could be considered insulting.

EDIT: oops i just copied all that i had lol forgot this one is in there.

rr = ¤¡¤¡ = gogo
rpdla = °ÔÀÓ = game
tmd = ½Â = win
ahffky = ¸ô¶ó¤Ë = I don't know
gd = ¤¾¤· = sup
tl = ½Ã = hour
tkfkd = »ç¶û = love
ro = °³ = dog
sj = ³Ê = you
sk = ³ª = me

these letters output the middle which was korean, just i uninstalled the language pack and so my PC does not recognize them anymore.

Korean Language partners, use something like Shared talk to meet Koreans interested in learning English and do a language exchange thing.
Learning an accent / style of speaking is weird because in your native language you do it unconsciously, but I've found as I learn Japanese, purposely speaking in an accent comes across very forced and feels odd. I lived in Osaka for a year, so I've obviously picked up some Osaka-ben. Some of it rolls of my tongue easy, other stuff sounds awkward and forced because I know as I say it... I'm saying it in an accent.

Learn the language. Then you will pick it up. The end. Learning ebonics gives you no real understanding of the language, as it may be.
