hey tim!!!!

can you give me some sentence pattern!!!
and some words to!!!
i`ll already memorized the hangul and pronunciation!
and i already know some word,..little bit but its help on my daily habbit


can you give me???
(jom juseyo???)

[timandyou]

May I have your name please?
You seem very close with me (I also want that) but I don't know your name...

Okay, you ask me to give you the structure of Korean sentence.
Let's compare Korean with English.

English is Subject + Verb + Object / Complement.
For examples:
I eat Sushi.
Tim studies Korean.
You are a student.

However, Korean is opposite to English.
The structure of Korean sentence goes like Subject + Object/Complement + Verb.
For examples:
저는 수시를 먹습니다. "I eat Sushi" ("eat"=먹습니다, "Sushi"=수시 + (를) since it it an Object)
팀은 한국어를 공부합니다. "Tim studies Korean" ("study"=공부하다, "Korean"=한국어 + (를) since it is an Object).
당신은 학생 입니다. "You are a student." ("a student"=학생 (don't need to attach anything since it is a complement), "are"=입니다 (be -verb)).

If you know this pattern, learning Korean would be much easier and simpler.
That's why I made lessons about Particles (Absolute Beginner Season 3 & 4).
Unlike English, if you don't know Particles (은/는, 이/가), you wouldn't know what the topic, the subject, the object is... Learning particles is ESSENTIAL in Korean.

What's more... the rule for attaching particles based on the system of sound that ends in each word. For examples, about "I"=저 (jeo) ends in the sound of "o" which is VOWEL. therefore, you attach 는 instead of 은. What about "you"=당신 (dang-sin) ends in the sound of "n" which is CONSONANT. Therefore, you attach 은 instead of 는. The same rule applies for 이/가, 을/를 and more later on...

I think you already know about "please give me..." = 주세요.
When you ask something by saying "주세요", you are asking something - the object. So, when you ask for "water", you say "물(OBJECT) 주세요"; however, the correct answer is 물을 주세요. (을 is particles for Object).

Please keep listening and practicing on Particles.
Once you know and get used to this rule, learning Korean would be SO MUCH FUN!
I bet you!
cheers,

by the way... "please give your name..." = 이름(을) 주세요...

Hello Jerz,
Regrettably I can't give you personal lesson for you.

By the way, where are you from?

[timandyou]

"the" = 그 (geu)
"then" = 그러면 (geu-reo-myeon)
"there" = 저기 (jeo-gi)
"this" = 이것 (i-geot)
"that" = 저것 (jeo-geot)
"thing" = 일/물건 (il/mul-geon)

"is/am/are" = 이다 (i-da)
"from where to where" = you will learn about this soon or later throughout the coming lesson.
cheers,

Numbers

I think these are called Sino Korean numbers
일 이 삼 사 오 육 칠 팔 구 십

Not so good at these though well maybe
한나
둘
셋
넷
닸엇
였섯
일곱
여덜 (여덟)
아홉
열

Think I might bring up more on this lesson too from past experiences

Two o'clock 두시
4 people 네 사람

When I was talking to my grandma awhile back we were discussing counting food and she said that you add another word I'll try to write it so maybe you might know.

I'm going to the store to buy 2 apples.
저는 두 머리 사과를 가러 사요.

Well that was kind of a complicated sentence so not sure how well I did but she said you added a word that sounded like 머리 in the sentence or maybe it is that, but I'm not sure what it means (I forgot) or if I used it correctly.

갑사합니다 very much
Dustin

[timandyou]

Hello Dustin,
You've been really studying hard ^^

you wrote,
한나 - 하나
둘
셋
넷
닸엇 - 다섯
였섯 - 여섯
일곱
여덜 (여덟) - 여덟
아홉
열

about your question (your grand-ma's question??)
"I'm going to the store to buy 2 apples."
저는 두 머리 사과를 가러 사요.

and you also wrote,
"Well that was kind of a complicated sentence so not sure how well I did but she said you added a word that sounded like 머리 in the sentence or maybe it is that, but I'm not sure what it means (I forgot) or if I used it correctly."

Where did you get "머리" from? I don't think I ever said like that... 두 머리 사과? "two head apples"?
Dustin, 머리 is "a head"
I think... you are trying to add 'COUNTING UNIT' for an apple - 개 (gae).
Therefore, "I'm going to the store to buy 2 apples." can translate as
저는 "I" + 사과 두 개를 "2 apples" + 사러 "to buy" + 가게에 "to the store" + 가요 "am going"
- 저는 사과 두 개를 사러 가게에 가요 "I am going to the store to buy 2 apples".
I hope this helps,
cheers,
Tim

감사합니니

Maybe we were talking about something else? I'm not sure, it's been awhile since we talked about it

Thank youbfor the corrections

Next time I talkto her I'll se what she was saying and post a follow up on it. It might not have been 머리 it sounded like it. I'll let you know when I talk to her.

감사합니다

[timandyou]

하하하~~~ ㅎㅎㅎ
Last night, I couldn't sleep because.... you guess,
because...
I was thinking about the "머리" your grand-mom mentioned of.
"So, I am very tired now!" ㅎㅎㅎ

Could it be 마리 "a counting unit for animal"?
I try to make a connection between 머리 "head" and 사과 "apple"... but I failed!!!!
This is one of most challenge situations I've been ever through~~~! ㅎㅎㅎ

Hello Dustin,
It's good to see you've been learning a lot of Korean throughout my lessons (Absolute Beginner Season 2).
Moreover, I can notice how your Korean has been improving!
Again, I have to say, "thank you for listening to Absolute Beginner Season2" and "for reading and doing these Practice Sheets".
thanks,

Tim

[dustin2010]

하하하 죄송합니다 you lost some sleep

I was able to talk with my 할머니 and she did say that 마리 was for when you were counting animals so at one point we must have talked about them both and the meanings must have blurred together.

So some lesson focus practice:

Her 3 apples are here.
그녀의 사과 세 개를 여기에 있습니다.

He has two dogs.
그의 개 두 마리를 있슴니다.

Five people
다섯 사람

She also said that there was another way to count people; though we explained it on the was back to my house in the car so I'm not sure if it's going to be right :p.

다섯 명

For these do I put particles after 사람(을) 과 명(을) just like the others?

감사합니다 haha I also learned how to play a Korean card game similar to 고스톱

더스틴

[timandyou]

Hello Dustin,

you wrote,
Her 3 apples are here.
그녀의 사과 세 개를 여기에 있습니다.
And here is my answer. Are those "her three apples" are object?
or subject?

He has two dogs.
그의 개 두 마리를 있슴니다.
"have" is not "action verb" unlike "to see, to listen, to study, to eat.... "
you wrote, 두 마리를 (when you wrote 을,를, that mean "two dogs" is object, is it?)
Think this - "I have a book" vs, "I drink water"

Five people
다섯 사람
Yes, 다섯 사람, 다섯 명, 다섯 분 all means "five people"

She also said that there was another way to count people; though we explained it on the was back to my house in the car so I'm not sure if it's going to be right :p.

다섯 명

For these do I put particles after 사람(을) 과 명(을) just like the others?
Yes, you can... for as long as it is placed in the object in the sentence.

감사합니다 haha I also learned how to play a Korean card game similar to 고스톱

"Great! I love to play "고스톱" with friends.
cheers,
Tim

[dustin2010]

안녕하세요. Sorry I used the sentence above an example and forgot It already had subject
So hopefully I can correct these

Her three apples are here.
그녀의 사과 세 개가 여기에 있습니다.

Change to :his 5 dogs are eating dog food.
그의 개 다섯 마리는 개 음식을 먹어요.

점심= lunch, if I said many people ate lunch without an exact number would I say
사람들은 점심이 먹어요.

팀은 감사합니다
더스틴

[timandyou]

You did good overall! actually very good!

One thing though...
you wrote, 점심= lunch, if I said many people ate lunch without an exact number would I say
사람들은 점심이 먹어요.

in the sentence of "People eat lunch", what's the element of "lunch"?
is it subject? or is it "OBJECT"?
If it's object, what should you attach to the "lunch"?

Thanks for studying and doing all the practices.
cheers,
Tim
