- I need a second opinion please. Hi all~ I was recently told that to say '너무 예쁘다' or '너무 이쁘다' is incorrect. That '너무' should only be used in a negative sentence, but I can't accept this! Almost every k-pop song contradicts what I'm being told. I was also told using '진짜' and/or '정말' to say 'really' is incorrect. Again k-pop, Korean programming and others teachings would tell me otherwise. I feel really bad questioning what this person has told me since this person (a native Korean) went out of his way to help me but it's very hard for me to believe. I'd love to get a second opinion, please help. Thank you~ and... 죄송합니다 ^~^;;November 19, 201290

I cancould learn English well if it is grammar were unnecessaryto learn grammar, but this is impossible so I'll just be study hard.
Alternatively I would say, I could learn English well if grammar weren't necessary...
Had been or have been, is past tense for having gone somewhere or done something.
I had been to the circus as a child. (as a child = when I was a child) same meaning.
I had been all over the world and experienced many things.
I have been doing fine on my own.
Have, (present tense) I have many friends (presently).
Had, (past) I had many friends (but now I don't). (had, used to have)
Done, (past) I've done my homework. (done, completed, finished) etc.
You're English is very good, I hope this helps. ^.^v

They are racists who think their race is best as I wrote in another thread. They also like to insult about others If you are fat or ugly or have different race." Unquote I had hoped to study abroad in Korea when I'm older however this is a little troubling... I've never had to deal with bullying or racism. I'm a New Zealand Maori with light brown skin (as you can see from my profile pic) so I guess I would stand out a bit... If I were to go to Korea would I be picked on! Is racism really that bad over there? I suppose I've lived a fairly sheltered life so I hadn't given it much thought until now. I asked this question in jieuna's discussion but never got a reply so I hope to hear everyone's opinions on this matter, particularly from the natives of Korea and foreign visitors of Korea. Thank you~ On a side note, "New Zealand Maori" are the natives of New Zealand and in the native tongue New Zealand is actually Aotearoa. In Korean it would be pronounced 아오테아로아 since in the Maori language vowels are pronounced in the same way and we also roll the R. Aotearoa means land of the long white cloud. Most people wouldn't care but I thought I would mention it for anyone that was curious. ^.^vNovember 12, 201260
Hello jieuna. I'm REALLY surprised to read your comments on Korea. I was hoping to study abroad there when I'm older but now I'm not so sure... If I go there do you believe I'd be picked on? I'm a New Zealand Maori so I'm guessing I would stand out 0_0;; But I've never had to deal with bullies or racism before. It can't be that bad there... can it?
Also, I was wondering how did you like NZ? I'd really like to hear your opinion and please don't be afraid to tell the truth if you didn't like it. There are many things I don't like about my own country although there are many things I love ^.^v I hope you were able to visit Mt Maunganui! The beach there is the best!
Hope to hear from you~ Most people here (but not all) seem to ignore me ;~; Maybe because of my age?
