It was lovely to meet you and to have a bit of deep conversation even in our first meeting! I definitely am hoping to hear more about philosophy from you. As you could see, it really interests me.

외국인 한국 생활
친구에게 대답입니다. 봐주시면 감사드립니다.
제가 2017년에 여름과 가을에 한국에서 한국어를 공부하고 한국에 생활도 해봤었거든요. 도시 너무 아름답고 음식이 제일 좋았어요. 여기 저기 구경하다 시간 가는줄도 모르고 너무 아름다워서 아직 어제 처럼 기억해요. 선생님들 신기하게 가르츠는것 잘했어요. (I'm not getting exactly what you want to say..) 공부하는것도 아주 ('제일' means 'the most'. you have to use the expression only for one object) 재미있었고 만화방, 노래방, 고양이 케페 그런것 많이 있어서 아주 좋았거든요. 한국에서 생활을 70% 최고로 봐요 (Also I can't understand this sentence). 좋은 문화 너무 많고 좋은것 많이 배웠어요.
그런데는,... 너무 외로웠어요. 한국에서 친구만드는것 너무 어려워요. 가끔 위험할 수도 있어요. 예쁜 여자 외국인이라는것도 더 이상합니다. 한국에서 왜 이렇게 생각하는지 잘 모르겠지만. 외국인 여자라서 쉬운여자라고 생각하는 것 같아요 ('안다' means 'to know'. I thought you wanted to say 'Sometimes koreans regarded me as an easy woman.'. 생각하다(to think) or 여기다(to regard) is better in this context). 모든 사람들이 미국에서 오는것도 아니고. 종교를 믿는 사람일 수도 있는데요. 절 외국인이 아니라... 사람으로 봐줬으면 좋겠는데 안 그랬어요. 한국에서 Street Talk같은 것도 별로 없어요. 제가 보기에는 술마실때만 말을 걸어요. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ (귀엽긴하지만) 말을 좀 걸면 좋겠어요. 제가 학원도 다녔거든요. 근데 친구... 만들수는 없었어요. ㅋㅋㅋ 모든 사람들이 너무 열심히 하면서 살아요. 같이 나가서 뭐 카피 라도 먹는 시간도 없었어요. 나쁘다는것 아니에요. 멋있어요. 근데 쉬는것도 생각 해야 하는 것 아닐까요?
한국사람들 너무 착하고 똑똑한 사람들이라서 너무 좋아요. 그래서 친구되고(or 친구하고) 싶어요. 이렇게 어렵지 않았으면 좋겠는데요. ㅋㅋㅋStrictly, '너무' expresses negativity. In a formal situation, you've got to use '너무' only for negative sentence. For example, "너무 싫어요(I really don't like it)", in everyday Korean '너무' can be used positively though.
0 votedDecember 26, 20181- Speaking English I have done my English speaking exam. It was awful. I was supposed to choose one topic for speaking and told to a teacher my idea about the topic. I was too nervous and got confused. Unless my ideas and sentences are organized in my head, I'll never talk correctly. I don't know why. I was just murmuring senseless ideas even not grammatically. I'm very talkative in speaking Korean. And I also love to discuss specific topics and make it deeper. I want the same experience with it in speaking English. How do I become confident?March 2, 201830
5 English Idioms/Inspirational Quotes in Korean
1. 시간은 금이다.
2. 넌 새로운 것을 시도하기에 결코 나이가 많지 않아."결코" is not natural to express a kind of states. Koreans prefer "절대/절대로" to "결코".
3. 포기하지 마세요.
4. 만약 네가 꿈꿀 수 있다면, 너는 그것을 할 수 있다.A subject usually is omitted in everyday Korean. (Actually, you can omit both of subjects.)
5. 처음에 성공하지 못하면 다시 시도하세요.0 votedMarch 1, 20180- Expressing separations Hello, I'd like to emphasize that two things are separated owing to their own foundations. What I've written is: This inclination has changed since Kant (or Machiavelli who separated political ideas from ethical ideas first). He argued that sciences of facts are fundamentally different from sciences of morality because [[these two sciences are explored by distinct faculties of our reason]], pure reason and practical reason. Am I correct to write like this to express my idea? My idea would be schematized like: pure reason --> sciences of facts practical reason --> sciences of morality Therefore, these sciences are fundamentally distinct. Thank you for your answer!February 23, 201830
