| 여러분, 안녕하세요? 에이미에요. Hi, everybody! I’m Amy. |
| Welcome back to KoreanClass101.com’s 삼분 한국어, the fastest, easiest, and most fun way to learn Korean. |
| In the last lesson, we learned how to ask "How do you say it in Korean?" |
| In this lesson, we’ll learn a phrase that will help you read, not just talk. |
| Let’s start! |
| You just got a restaurant recommendation from a Korean friend, but you’re worried that you might forget the name. Just ask |
| “Can you write it down please?” |
| 적어 주시겠어요? |
| Let’s break it down: |
| 적어 is ‘to write down’ |
| 주시겠어요 is can you please do |
| [slowly] 적어 주시겠어요? |
| They wrote it down, but now you don’t know how to read it! |
| 이거 어떻게 읽어요? |
| “How do you read this?” |
| 이거 this, 어떻게, how. |
| And 읽어요 means “ to read.” |
| Together, |
| 이거 어떻게 읽어요? |
| how do you read this? |
| Korean letters, the Hangul, are easy to write down, yet may be a bit difficult to pronounce. |
| If you didn’t quite catch the pronunciation, you could ask, |
| 한 번 더 읽어주시겠어요? |
| which means, |
| can you read it one more time? |
| 한 번 더 is one more time, |
| 읽어 주시겠어요 can you please read~ |
| 한 번 더 읽어 주시겠어요? |
| At the end of this whole process, you could perhaps thank them by saying, |
| 적어 주셔서 감사합니다. |
| Thank you for writing down. |
| 적어 주셔서 is polite way of saying “writing it down” |
| 감사합니다 as you would probably know well, is thank you. |
| [slowly] 적어 주셔서 감사합니다. |
| Now it’s time for Amy’s insight. |
| Since there are wifi’s everywhere in Korea, you could try your smartphone! Don’t need old-fashioned paper, pen or even the map. |
| Ask them to write it down for you on your phone! you know Koreans are good with the phone. |
| That is it for today! In the next lesson, we’ll cover what to say when we're exchanging money such as 어디서 환전할 수 있어요? |
| I’ll be waiting for you in our next 삼분 한국어 lesson! |
| 여러분, 안녕히 계세요! 다음에 봐요! |
