I agree with all you guys - I moved to the States when I was 3 too, and it was really the Korean dramas and 서태지 (ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ) who really helped me learn the language.

Clazzi, I'm like you 100%. my spoken Korean is deffffffffinitely better than my written. =/ Being here in Korea is really helping me a lot tho. Working for a Korean company + talking to Korean parents everyday is the best practice ever.

I've been hearing a lot more 사투리 from my best friends lately... and yeah I'm like WTF when they do that too. In general out of like 5 total people I'm like the one that barely speaks a lick of Korean during our circle conversations (parents are different however) but when they talk I have no problem understanding, minus the 사투리 of course =P

LOL Susie.
And ilovestarcraft I assume you moved from Korea to USA(?) after 3rd grade? And came back for middle school?

Clazzi, I'm like you 100%. my spoken Korean is deffffffffinitely better than my written. =/ Being here in Korea is really helping me a lot tho. Working for a Korean company + talking to Korean parents everyday is the best practice ever.


Definitely, because you'll probably be speaking korean most of the time because obviously, you are in korea XD

I should study more vocab, how did she learn? Reading the bible in korean? Haha that reminds me at church, when like the pastor says a verse, then the audience(?) says another. I'm so slow in reading and I don't know whats going on in the passage.


I guess it was motivation, idk...I really never had the urge to get better at Korean, but my sister I guess wanted to learn and more and the thing that helped her so much ever since she went to church (like 3rd grade) was read/write the bible because in Catholic churches we have things called altar who help out the priest in mass and like they always had this assignment which was to write like shitload of pages from the Bible (Korean though) and I guess as she wrote them, she learned new words, etc...

That's why every sermon that the priest says, my sister understands, while I, on the other hand, fall asleep because I don't know much

I got pwned

I'd like to think both my Korean and English are quite fluent though. As far as anyone I've spoken to can tell, my English has no Korean accent and vice versa

It's funny cause I say a english word in a korean accent if I'm speaking in Korean but I can't say a korean word in an english accent if I'm speaking in english. Confuses the hell out of Koreans when I talk to them for the first time cause I think I'd be noob at english lol

8 Years of korean school in america. 1 year of exchange student program. Mom has been a korean school teacher as a side job all her life. gg my childhood.

사투리 is easy as hell to understand, just hard to emulate in speech.

Only thing I really regret is not learning to type in Korean. Harder vocab and stuff is easily attainable compared to that imo.

the best way to learn to type korean is through the messenger. just get some really talkative korean fob friend and viola! your korean typage is gone off the chart.
seriously though, your korean typing skill increases over time.

You can type in Korean if you can write in it. Even my white friends could type basic korean words after seeing them (albeit it took them a long time).

I meet people in Korea who talk to me in their terrible English, and then even fumble their Korean as if they have a hard time speaking Korean since they've been abroad for soooooooo long (what, a whole 2 fuckin' years?!?!).

The taxi driver thought that of me, I'm sure, because of exactly these types of people - the not so fluent English speakers who play it off like they are.

When I was in Spain, I was able to get by - order food, ask directions, grab a taxi, etc. But in no way shape of form would I say that I'm multi-lingual that I can speak Spanish too. I'm sure to any Spanish speaker here I'd be insulting them if I said that I was nearly as good as they were. And I would never play it off like I was.

Bleh. This is just a rant; I've been meeting too many 유학생s that try that shit on me.

"Oh you studied in America too?"
"... yes"
"How long where you there?"
"..... 25 years"

-_____-





to be honest this isnt just with koreans
this happens in almost every country out there. If its one of the "less cool" countries - they will speak broken english/french/german with their own people. That shit went down for ages, read "War and Peace" - they all speak french while in russia. Indicates a "higher society" or something. Actually its "cool" to have british accent these days in the US, go figure.
I always laughed at "bilingual" people that were not proficient with it. My sis studied foreign language for 10 years hardcore and she kept saying "i suck at it" while publishing own works and starting to teach at Uni.
ignorant people like you mentioned fucking irritate me the most, its embarrassing/degrading to be around them


Also didnt russian nobility use french pronounciation when speaking russian anyways for a long time? im not sure just double checking, Just remember reading about tolstoy's life and it describing him as treasuring his french pronounciation.
