In the Korean speech there is such a thing as formal and informal language, barried by these honorfics. To a broad public, one should always talk formal Korean, hence the additions to the normal english words. I think your getting it a little mixed up, the way Koreans pronounce english words in a funny way is because they pronounce those words as if they were written in korean, which is why you get that blocky and funny pronunciation like "juh-guh-ling" for "zergling" or "play-gu" for "plague". But your correct about the honorifics | ||

So me and the other native teacher used to share a giggle each time one of them did it in front of us. My name is the worst name you can possibly have (probabbly not true) in Korea, theres a short noise kind of like Greh that means like a real casual Yes. It sounds like Greg to me everytime I hear it. The students normally struglle with Greg but they tend to go for adding a vow and call me Gegi, or Grega even sometimes Greguuu. They do it with lots of words like Englishie and finishie. I don't think the adding an u is done to make it sound honourific but I'll admit that most Korean words that do end like that are honorific so maybe theres a conection. | ||

I don't know the second one. The last is, "of course", or "that's how it is", or "yes, I agree". It's an affirmation of something someone else said. | ||

It can be used to refer to pop songs as well as mines. Sorry, I'm wondering about the hanja, not the hangul. The first character is pretty obviously 大, but I can't think of anything with a reading that sounds like "bak" that would really be appropriate for the second one. 暴? 爆 (works for mines, at least, haha)? Then again, I guess it could be some kind of native Korean term that doesn't correspond directly to a Chinese character. | ||

Hahaha look at my nickname :D My observations on Korean phonetics: 1- Koreans are unable to pronounce Z properly. They pronounce it something like in between Dj- and Ch- 2- Koreans are also unable to pronounce some Rs. Not like r in Kurochooo but like R in Zerg and R in STARTALE or Starcraft. They say "Djaguu", "Statail" and "Staakreftuu" instead. 3- The "uu"s in the end of some words like "Plaguuu", "Tankuuu", "Dronuuu" and "Probuuu" are not exactly U. In Turkish (my native lango), there is a letter with a very close sound. 4- Koreans also pronounce TH- like S-. This means, Python turns into Paysan. 5- Also, you can rarely hear a proper F from Koreans. "Pettoriii", "Dipayloo" and "Puck" replaced Factory, Defiler and Fuck. This is also the reason why they say "hwaiting" instead of "fighting". Speaking of "Pettoriii", Koreans also can't pronounce CT. They pronounce it like TT. As seen in "Pettoriii". 6- Koreans tend to pronounce the words that end with UN, ON, UNG and ONG like OM NOM NOM. Not AM NAM NAM. This means, it is Song Byeong Goo, not Sang Byang Goo (Sayle, I'm so sorry). Other than that, there is a dictionary-ish thread that can help with words. EDIT: 1- "deh" means "vs". You can hear "Djaguu de Djaguu" or "Teran de Teran" from commentators. 2- "X-john" means vX. "Terran-john" means vT for example. "Djonn" would be more appropriate for native english speakers. For some moment, I thought Turkish pronunciation would lead to what I mean, but no. | ||
