My First Korean Lesson
We started off with gauging how much Korean I already know since I mentioned I was familiar with the language already. I had already learned how to read Hangul and say a few random sentences.
Once my teacher found out my level, we reviewed consonants, double consonants, vowels, a couple particles.
Here are some of the phrases she taught me:
잘 지냈어요? (How are you?)
우리 엄마는 똑똑하고 웃겨. (My mom is smart and funny.)
She taught me that (하고) is a word similar to "and," yet it is attached to the first noun in the list. With this, I was also taught (이랑 and 랑) which are also words like "and" that are attached to nouns.
And depending if the word ends with a consonant or vowel will determine which version of "and" you'll use.
I learned that the grammar order mainly is (subject+object+verb), but when it's (subject+adjective+verb) it doesn't need an object.
There were many words I learned during my first lesson, and I still have to study them and incorporate them into my sentences, so that I won't forget them. I definitely enjoyed this lesson!
