The Talk to Me in Korean people just put it up on their store website, and I'm wondering if it's worth the twenty dollars. http://mykoreanstore.myshopify.com/collections/books/products/sogang-korean-1a-student-book 갑사합니다 !! ^_^ Got the book a week ago, like 75% of it is Korean which is nice, not very noob friendly IMO. Starts off slow with exercises with Hangul and then picks up rapidly. Very different from all the other I seen/tried which goes for the baby spoon fed approach. CD was tricky to work, for it doesn't work in my external DVD writer or blue ray drive, had to rip it from a old DVD drive. Pretty sure the CD is 100% Korean. Definitely worth the $20. I don't think there is an eBook yet definitely a cool idea. Hyun-wa even asked for my cell #, although she assured me it was for business. | ||

Its pretty funny. But I looked at the channel its from and there are a lot of videos there to learn korean and mandarin. The link didnt work the way I wanted it to. Skip to 13 minutes 33 seconds if you want to laugh. | ||

That is a bit repetitive, and quite hilarious in a way. | ||

1. With three letter syllables, the "ㅣ" is usually placed next to the first letter, and the third letter is placed under the two. However, I ran into one syllable where the "ㅣ" runs across the whole word. I don't know how to write syllables, but it was: ㅈㅓㄱ Why is this? 2. Is there any difference between the ㅅ and ㅌ at the end of a syllable? I learned both should be pronounced like a 't', but I do not know why both are used. | ||

2. they are read as "t" only if there are no vowels right after them. for example, 같다 - kat ta , 같아(요) - ka tah (yo) ((to be same, to look like) while 맛있다 - ma shi tta , 맛있어(요) - ma shi sso yo , hm that wasn't the best example. there are MANY rules of reading, including exceptions | ||

I'm not sure what your first question means 2) When you pronounce the syllable in isolation there is no difference in sound (eg: 같, 갓, 갗, 갇 all sound the same with a 't' sound), but when you combine them into words there are differences. For example: 갓이 = (ga-shee) (caveat that I don't know exact Korean romanisation, but you get the idea) 같이 = (ga-chee) 갓은 = (gaseun) 같은 = (gateun) | ||

As for my first question, I found out I was misreading " ㅝ " as " ㄱㅓ ". Thanks for making me realise! And the explanations for my second question are great, I see how it works now  Thanks guys! EDIT: Oh, one more question. Why is " ㅇㅣ " romanized as "Lee"? Makes no sense to me | ||

Makes no sense to me 이 was in the past written 리 . I think it comes from Sino-Korean. In north korea they pronounce it 리. | ||

I was told it is just because western people are used to the Lee second name that comes from China and it is not very handy to have an Ee second name in America or something like that. I know it's stupid. Source: korean friend | ||

right now i'm using talk to me in korean a lot along with the basic korean grammar book for reference, but i'd like something with a lot of words to expand my vocabulary but something that i can do at my own pace. the talk to me in korean lessons are sometimes a little... long and repetitive and skipping around in them to find the good parts is annoying, it would be much easier with a book. thanks | ||

I'm also learning Korean, mainly through TTMIK and HaruKorean, but I'm looking for a real tutor, someone I can ask questions to and even practice a little. I've been looking in my area (Grenoble in France) for a while now with no luck, so I'm wondering if someone here is interested in maybe giving Skype lessons ? I'm more than willing to pay for them (kinda like a StarCraft lesson, but with Korean). Thanks again, this thread prooved to be useful =) | ||
