<NeverGG> see the thing is there are only certain things you can do with a gamer alone - you need 2 or 3 for it to really get fun.
<NeverGG> But it's hard to handle 3 gamers at once - I've done it a few times.

Practical Korean 6: Ordering 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:

Okay.. so you finally got the attention of that waitress with..
+ Show Spoiler [Can you remember?] +
저기요 (jeoh-gi-yo!)/ 여기요 (yeoh-gi-yo!)
Today, let's start with the most basic ordering expression: "Please give me [XXX]":
[XXX] 주세요. (ju-seh-yo)
Korean word order means the verb comes at the end so you need to switch the object/XXX to the front. Remember also this isn't a question, it's a polite request; so there is no upwards intonation at the end. Some basic examples:
Please give me water
물 주세요. (mul ju-seh-yo)
Please give me beer
맥주 주세요. (mek-ju ju-seh-yo)
Please give me a tissue/small table napkin things
티슈 주세요. (ti-syu ju-seh-yo)
+ Show Spoiler [Details for the keen] +
주세요 = polite imperative form
주 is from the verb 주다 (to give)
세요 = polite imperative ending
Next week, we'll add to this expression with some more commonly used words.

Probably due to this thread and this thread.
rei was just temp banned for 2 days by Plexa.
That account was created on 2002-10-24 02:29:26 and had 869 posts.
Reason: You pmd me with two posters who you thought were in the wrong, then proceed (in the same thread) to stoop below their level and claim yourself a martyr for the second time? Veteran status isn't something you get by right, its earned by respect. It speaks volumes when I know who niteReloaded is and yet I don't know a 7 year site "veteran" like yourself. Start to act like a veteran and act in a positive manner rather than abuse it for all it's worth.
