    I am not a native speaker myself, but I would say acting cute could either be 애교 or 귀여운 척 So if a girl says to her older male friend "Do you like me acting cute?" I think it would be 오빠, 나 귀여운 척을 하는 건 어때? You don't like me acting cute? 오빠는 내 귀여운 척을 싫어해?

    한국어 공부하면 내 단점 이 학기부터 한국어 전공을 시작해 가지고 한국말로 작문을 쓰기를 시작했는데요. 외국어로 작문을 쓰는 건 겁나 어색해요. 왜냐면 일상적인 회화에서 별로 쓰지 않는 문법도 작문용어도 써야 하니까 낯선 느낌이네요. 6년 동안 한국말을 독학으로 공부한 뒤에도 왜 이렇게 유창하지 않죠? 이 지금 이르기까지 작문 4개 만들었어요. 결과가 더 늘고 싶은데 어떻게 늘을 수 있을까요... 참 수수께끼네요 ㅎㅎㅎ 도와주세요!

    The Republic of Apartments

    There are so many thousands of apartments that have been built in Korea.
    <s>The</s> "apartment" doesn't mean residence anymore to Korean people <s>for those</s> who regard the apartment <s>with</s> as an increase of wealth, the <s>home </s>mortgage having been paid (paid off 더 자연스러워요.), sold and bought 이해가안가요...
    the concept of <s>it</s> the quintessential(필요없지만, 추천 단어)apartment has changed a lot, unlike foreign countries.

    Japan calls it <s>as</s> <s>the</s> a mansion.
    In the UK, they provide<s>s</s> <s>it</s> flats for <s>class of working</s> the working class and for people in need <s>and</s> or* poverty.

    문장 하나속에서 and 2번 더 이상 쓰면 자연스럽지 않아요.

    Living in apartment in Seoul means that <s>they</s> the residents are rich, upper class with convenient<s> circumstances</s> luxuries more than others <s>who</s> living outside of Seoul can afford.

    <s>It made their own relation and group to tell the difference from those who is not </s>
    This has created a noticeable divide in the Korean social class system.

    When the original Korean apartments <s>had built at first</s> were first built, it was just 5 or 6 floors.
    But now <s>it became</s> skyscrapers <s>with</s> higher than 30 floors are becoming the norm.

    But now = 이제

    I think it caused discrimination, prejudice, classism. (계급주의)
    <s>because of it.</s>

    "I think it"을 말하면 "because of it" 똑같은 말이에요.

    Children have <s>learnt to think</s> been lead to believe (lead to believe = 거짓말을 믿다는 것) that people are different <s>not the same </s>depending on where <s>people</s> you live.
    This is <s>the</s> a terrible example of what today's children are learning <s style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 0);"> </s><s>education for our children</s> <s>Actually </s>to the extent that <s>it happened that</s> children <s>made</s> are making their own groups and <s>leave others alone</s> exclude other children who don't fit in according to the articles.

    Home is symbol of wealth.
    the value of <s>work with sweat</s> labour has been declining.

    People <s>consider</s> only care about how to easily <s>to</s> make such<s> a</s> big money and the wealth makes them look valuable in social class more than people around them.

    오늘까지 2019년 동안 생긴 일 오랫동안 italki를 안 쓰고 있었지만 이제 italki를 잘 쓰고 한국말 더 잘하게 늘고 싶다. 올해부터 여러 일이 생겼을 테니까 오늘 일기장은 좀 길어질 수도 있겠다. 시작합시다..! 작년, 고등학교 졸업해서 부모님과 함께 브리즈번여행 갔다왔다. 출발은 비행기로 가고 브리즈번에서 운전으로 시드니까지 돌아왔다. 집으로 가는 길에 다양한 곳에 풍경을 보러 갔다. 특히 The Byron Hinterlands, 하고 Hunter Valley에 가보고 거기서 와인을 마시고 사진을 많이 찍었다. 그래도 집에 다녀왔을 때부터 2019년이 빨리 바빠졌다. 내가 기대한 대학교 입학 오디션을 보고 잘 왔다. 시드니대 입학됐다~ 오예~. 1월은 내 남친이 나랑 헤어졌다. 지금도 아프지만 마음이 막 괜찮아지는 것 같다. 싱글생활을 느끼고서 힐링이 되고 혼자서 잘 지내는 법을 배우고 있다. 4월도 고생 많았다. 엄마 생신 전날에 우리 사랑한 고양이가 죽었다. 15살이었다. 내 통통한 고양이를 많이 많이 그리워하다.. 요즘까지 안 괜찮았다. 너무 힘들어서 이야기하기 싫었었다. 이제는 대학에서 잘 지내지만 문제 하나 더 있다. 성인이 되는 것. 되게 어렵죠! ㅋㅋㅋ 다음 방학에 알바를 얻고 싶은데 운전 못하고 공부 때문에 바쁘죠. 어렵네요. 내가 어떻게 성인생활에 넘어갈 수 있을까요? 올해 슬픈 일이 많이 생겼고 불안하지만 기대한 일도 있다. 내년 내가 제일 좋아하는 게임 동물의숲이 닌텐도 스위치에 드디어 나올 것이다. 그리고 최근 부모님과 이야기를 하고 크리스마스때 새끼고양이 2마리 들일 예정이다. italki 사용자 여러분, 오늘까지 2019년 잘 보내셨나요?

    Tap a credit card? How do you say "Can I pay by tapping my credit card?" in Japanese? I think this is very useful for credit card / bus / train card!

    There is very subtle difference in meaning. One might say that they all mean "I trust you" but if you study Kanji deeply enough, you can see the difference. 1. 信じてる ー This word is purely Japanese, whereas the other two are Chinese based words. This one simply means I trust you. 2. 信用してる ー Shin (信) means trust and Yō (用) means to use, so this means "I trust you" but it literally translates better as "I've got faith in you." 3.信頼してる ー The same applies here, except the second Chinese character Rai (頼) means dependance or reliance. So this has a tinge of "I'm relying on you" "I take your word" All in all, they all mean "I believe you" but the subtle differences have better effect in different situations as you can see. Use wisely ;)

    English is a confusing language when it comes to speaking. There are a lot of methods to become a better speaker in any language: 1. TV Shows/Movies/Music - This is a listening skill, but listening to pronunciation and how voices rise and fall in a sentence is really important to learn how to sound like a native speaker. 2. Talk to yourself in the language you are learning - I always talk to myself in Korean and Japanese because it helps me remember how to sound fluent. 3. Listen to your own voice - I recommend recording a voice message and listening to it. This will help you realise your mistakes in speaking and pronunciation. 4. Start small - start with some simple expressions like "Oh my god!" "Hey what's going on" "I'm so late" "How on earth is that possible?" 5. Choose one accent - Some people when they learn english have really weird accents because they change all the time. My advice is choose one. There are many: British, American, Australian, Canadian, New Zealand, Singaporean, South African etc. I hope this helps!
