Practical Korean 7: Numbers I
+ Show Spoiler [Inevitable Disclaimer] +
I'm not Korean. I have no Korean blood. I cannot speak Korean fluently. In fact I've only been in Korea for 3 months. So don't go apeshit if I use a ㅔ instead of ㅐ or I offend anyone's acute nationalistic feelings. Rest assured though that I will not teach anything without being 100% that it's right.

Note on Romanization:
(Romanization is where the Korean is phonetically translated into English)
I hate Romanization and I strongly suggest any serious learners of Korean not to use it. It's just for the newbies. The problem with it is that different English speakers will pronounce the syllables differently and on an international forum like this, it's impossible for me to be accurate with it. There are different variations of Romanization and below I do my own version.

A good site to learn the alphabet is here:
http://www.langintro.com/kintro/index.htm

So last week, we looked at the basic 'Please give me XX'
+ Show Spoiler [Remember? No?.. :(] +
XX 주세요 (XX ju-seh-yo)

Please give me beer
맥주 주세요 (mek-ju ju-seh-yo)

So we can all say 'BEER PLEASE' in a rather primitive fashion. This week, I wanted to teach you how to order multiples of things. (E.g. 'three beers please'). But then I realised we needed to learn some numbers first...So this week we're just going to look at them.

In Korean, there are two number systems (pretty gay). Both sets can only be used in their particular situations and can rarely be interchanged (ㅠㅠ). Today we'll look at the set of numbers for talking about physical objects. (So important things like, no. of beer/soju bottles, plates of food, no. of seige tanks, SCVs on gas, korean sluts in a club etc. All these (with a slight extra) use what is called the 'Pure Korean' number system.

LUCKILY! I think most of you already know how to count up to 3!
+ Show Spoiler +
hana..tul..set.. [XXX...FIGHTING!!]

To make this really digestable, the beginners try just memorising the first 5..

1 하나 (hana)
2 둘 (tul)
3 셋 (set)
4 넷 (net)
5 다섯 (tah-seot)

Now as practice, every time you watch a VOD, say the numbers with the fangirls. (And keep going to 5/10). The keen ones can study the rest:
+ Show Spoiler +
6 여섯 (yoh-seot)
7 일곱 (eel gop)
8 여덟 (yeo dawl)
9 아홉 (ah hop)
10 열 (yeol)

There's not much to say apart from just try and learn them. They're numbers after all... so you won't be wasting your time. With these in hand... next week we'll finally get round to ordering those four beers and the two plates of delicious squid rings..

starcraft 2 must suck so badly compared to this (or to even RA3) for someone who wasn't a fan with sc 1. If I'd be a casual, i'd totally choose the other two titles over starcraft 2.

The only appeal of sc2 over these is the possible better balance. It has definitely worse graphics, and it really doesn't have any innovation. Just the good ol RTS stuff.

With the way RTS games are being made nowadays, it'd be safe to argue that balance IS an innovation... -_____-;;

  • As a zerg, I condone this former blog.

Ki_Do was just banned by Manifesto7.

That account was created on 2008-07-08 21:11:05 and had 981 posts.

Reason: Your inability to heed warnings or post positively is astounding. 3 warnings and a week ban before this one.

Go to Disneyland. You aren't welcome here.


Unforgiven_ve was just temp banned for 2 days by zatic.

That account was created on 2004-08-24 14:46:36 and had 1002 posts.

Reason: Because this was probably the worst OP in General and you seem to collect warnings too.





Question of the Week
What happened to all the good threads?

Agreed.

Also, you know what i feel would make this thread more super awesome? IMHO Add some Tasteless comments/phrases. Im overjoyed with all sorts of good emotions when i hear/read those. lol
Btw, go TL. We need some more good threads, and even though what appears to be mostly newer people(including myself) taking over the threads and making them shit.
We should have a revolution for better threads!! ^^
Anyways good job.

God I need to think of some sort of stats/research thread to do. Mehh, mine didn't get much attention last time though. I don't want to do a big essay because it feels like school outside of school, obviously these projects are a lot to just procrastinate too...

After the purge strategy has improved about 100% those koreans guides are gold. And the rest is not that bad, just give it time. I say the worst is blog section but still there are some good ones.
Help me! im still improving my English. An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind. M. G.
