SOV Language

Korean is classified as an SOV language, which stands for:<Subject-Object-Verb> word order. English on the other hand is an SVO language. A subject is the one who acts. An object is the one who receives the subjects action.

<English> Yunho loves Jaejoong.

Who loves Jaejoong? Yunho does. Who is loved by Yunho? Jaejoong is. In Korean this sentence will be in the the word order:

<Korean> Yunho Jaejoong loves.

Topic - Prominent Language

Although we call it a subject, its position is not for subjects, the actor, only. A topic can also be in the position. A topic may not be an actor, but the one which the sentence is about. Let's take an example: You bumped into a friend after lunch. Your friend asks you, "Hey, how about a lunch?" You might want to say, "Lunch? I already had it. How about a cup of coffee?" The first part of this speech can be understood, 'As for (or, speaking of) lunch, I already ate it.' In Korean, this can be stated simply:

<Korean> Food, I ate.

Agglutinating Language

Now, you may have been confused, saying, "I don't get it. How come no one interprets it 'A food ate me.'?" This is where the powerful function of particles, endings, and conjugation comes in. By attaching these little grammatical devices, you label each words, so that your words come into places without causing misunderstanding.

Basic Sentence Formation:

{Subject/Topic+particle} + {Object+particle} + {Verb/Adjective+conjugation}

The genie intro <3

소원을 말해봐

- wish tell- 소원을 - wish

- 말 - talk/say/speak/words

- 해봐 - 했다 (to do) in imperative.

- - to do, right after words like 말, which on its own mean words or language,

into an action (ie. speak). Other words turned verbs like this include 잘, good ->

to do well, and 공부, studies/homework -> to study.- - verbs of this form are irregular i guess. but there are a lot of them, so they are regular in that verb class...

니 마음속에 있는 작은 꿈을 말해봐

- you <heart deep in> existing small dream tell- 니 - you, one of many forms, this is used with friends

- 마음속에 - deep in your heart / from the bottom of your heart

- - 마음 - heart

- - 속 - bottom

- - 에 - location particle. used in place of english words such as "at", "to", "from", "in", etc. - - - The specific definition is usually understood from context, like here, where it means "from" or "in".- - Also, notice that the previous 니 defined whose heart was being referred to.

- 있는 - exist/is

- - this conjugation of 있다 can be understood as "that is" making the first three words effectively an adjective to describe the next words- 작은 - small.

- 꿈을 - dream (object form). see the particle? learn to recognize them as not parts of words- 말해봐 - see previous line

니 머리에있는 이상형을 그려봐

- you <head in exist> <ideal person> draw- 니 - you (should already know this)

- 머리에있는- - 머리 - head

- - 에 - location particle, in this case, indicating that something is in the head or from the head- - 있는 - see the previous line

- 이상형을 - I'm not personally sure that this means ideal person, but subbers probably know more than i do, so i'll trust them. also, object particle.- 그려봐 - draw, imperative, another irregular verb? who knows...

그리고 나를 봐

- then me see- 그리고 - then, only used to indicate that something happens after something else, not any other english use.- 나를 - I, object form (ie. me). a form used between friends.

- 봐 - see/watch/notice

난 너의 GENIE 야, 꿈이야, GENIE 야- I your <genie is>, <dream is>, <genie is>.

- 난 - I, another form. maybe an abbreviation of 나는. don't cite me on that though. used between friends too.- 너 - You, another form, also used between friends.

- 의 - possessive particle. it turns you into your, like in the transliteration

- GENIE 야 - the 야 means to be. and means that the subject is the word this particle is attached to. unless with friends, its really rude to use this, so just go with 예요 or 있습니다 (to older people/superiors)

- 꿈이야 - you already know 꿈 from the second line, just at the the subject

particle 이 to it and 야, to show that something is a the subject.

- - This is where topic markers come into play. and the topic, 난, becomes is the thing that is the dream.

Like, for example, in SNSD's Genie Chorus..

그래요 난 널 사랑해Geuraeyo nan neol saranghaeThat's right, I love you언제나 믿어eonjena mideoYou can always believe in me꿈도 열정도ggumdo yeoljeongdoDreams, passions다 주고 싶어da jugo shipeoI want to give them all to you난 그대 소원을 이뤄주고 싶은 (싶은)nan geudae sowoneul irwojugo shipeun (shipeun)I'm wanting to answer your wishes행운의 여신haengoonui yeoshinYour goddess of fortune소원을 말해봐sowoneul marhaebwa!Tell me your wish

HOW TO WRITE KOREAN

Here are some examples of Korean Words with romanizations, pronunciations , and hangeul

It's very simple..-As you can see, when writing some Korean words, these are depend on how many syllables like:Han Geul , Han Geuk, A Nyeong Ha Se Yo.

So when i will write my name (Alyssa) into Korean, i would write A Lhay Sa because it also depends on pronunciations.

-When romanizing, you simply write Hangeul,Hangeuk, and Annyeong Haseyo.

IN WRITING:

For example, if you want to write your name like Dan, you should write it like this

Then simply transform the letters into hangeul.

Remember that writing words in Korean is like this

INTRODUCING YOURSELF

Hi - annyonghaseyoWhat is your name? - Irumi muoshimnikka? / Irumi muoshieyo?

(PATTERN)My name is ___________Chei irumun ________ imnida.

Meanings:Chei irumun - my name Choneun - I amim ni da - is

(PATTERN 2)____name_______ + im ni da (_____name_____ + ???)

(NOTE)More commonly, to state your name you can simply say... Im ni da - is primarily used to say that you are something or someone. It is used to inform about your state of being. You would not use it in a sentence like "He is at the market", but you would use it to say "he is Korean."

(NOTE 2)You can replace im ni da with ieyo or yeh yoh in some contexts. Im ni da is the more formal.

Nice to meet you - pangapsumnida

When introducing, i would say..

Annyeong Haseyo! Choneun Alyssa imnida. Pangapsumnida.

My only suggestion is to add the correct pronunciation.

A table, chart, something should be there for the odd rules of pronouncing some words. For example:

Final consonant: ㅅ(s), ㅆ(ss), ㅈ(j),ㅉ(jj),ㅊ(ch),ㄷ(d),ㄸ(dd),ㅌ(t) ---> ㄷ(d)

Example: 꽃(kkoch) is pronounced as 꼳(kkod)* when "d/ㄷ" ends a syllable, it sounds more like a "t"

Final consonant: ㅂ[b],ㅃ(bb),ㅍ(p) ---> ㅂ[b]

Example: 앞(ap) is pronounced as 압(ab)* when "b/ㅂ" ends a syllable, it sounds more like a "p"Final consonant: ㄱ(g),ㄲ(gg),ㅋ(k) ---> ㄱ(g)

Example: 부엌(bueok) is pronounced 부억(bueog)* when "g/ㄱ" ends a syllable, it sounds more like a "k"

Before the nasal consonants (m,n) ㅁ,ㄴAnything reduced to ㄷ is pronounced ㄴAnything reduced to ㅂ is pronounced ㅁAnything reduced to ㄱ is pronounced ㅇ(ng)

Examples: 있는(issneun) --> 읻는(itneun)--> 인는 (inneun)

합니다(hapnida) --> 함니다(hamnida)

한국말(han'gukmal) --> 한궁말(han'gungmal)

막내(maknae) --> 망내(mangnae)

*Rule only applies if the first block of characters ends in a consonant and is followed by ㅁ,ㄴ(m,n)

Double l(ㄹ) rule with n(ㄴ)When l and n are back to back, no matter the order(nl, ln), it is pronounced as double l.Example: 신라(shinra) ---> 실라(shilla)

When l(ㄹ) follows a consonant, it becomes n(ㄴ).

Example: 몽룡(mong-ryong) ---> 몽뇽(mong-nyong)

Unaspirated becoming tense:Generally, when one block ends in ㅂ,ㄷ,ㄱ and is followed by ㅂ,ㅈ,ㄷ,ㄱ, all of them become tense.ㅂ-->ㅃㅈ-->ㅉㄷ-->ㄸㄱ-->ㄲExample: 춥다(chubda) --> 춥따(chubdda)

g,b,j,d + h= k,p,ch,tExample: 시작하다(shijaghada) --> 시자카가(shijakada)Order doesn't matter. h can come before the unaspirated consonant.Example: 않다(anhda) --> 안타(anta)

My last piece of advice: Learn Hangul. Rominzation sucks. Hope this is helpful for anyone who reads it.

When pronounced as written, I believe it's 'noo goo' (nu gu), but many times I've heard it pronounced 'nyu gu' or 'du gu' so I'm pretty confused myself. hehe

yes, as babysoft said.. it is "nugu" or "noogoo"but "nyu goo" is suupposed to be like a funny/joking way of saying it. i have no idea where the whole "nyugu" thing came from. maybe a funny show or something.

the reason why it miight sound like "doogoo" is because in korean, the "N" sound (ㄴ) is not as strong or 'N'-ish as it is in english. if you pronounce "nice" in english and say it slowly, you notice that when you pronounce the "n" your tongue presses against the roof of your mouth. if you say "noogoo" in korean, i guess you can sort of say that your tongue doesnt press as hard against the top of your tongue so much. mostly because the korean vowels that follow after are pronounced differently too... but ANYWAY........ rofl but dont think of all of that while you're pronouncing the words. the main point is that the "n" in korean is kind of in between the english "n" and "d" sounds.

same with the korean R/L (ㄹ) sounds. it's sort of in between the english consonants R, L, and D.

and while i'm at it.. i'll just explain some more consonant differences.the korean consonant ㅂ = B in english and ㅍ = P. butttt in english, if you put your hand right in front of your mouth and say, "pot", you'll feel the air from the "p" sound. and when you say "bot", you won't feel anything. in korean the supposed "b" sound, or the ㅂ is slightly in between the english "B" and "P".... so if you say like "babo" (which means stupid) with your hand in front of your mouth, you should slightly feel air coming our of your mouth.

"nim" is used to address someone more respectfully.for example:" 어머님 (eommonim) - mother" rather than "엄마 (eomma) - mum" and "아버님

(abeonim) - father" rather than "아빠 (appa) - dad". I believe this is used when you address other people's parents.사장님 (sajangnim) - boss. You would address your boss as 사장님 when you see him

rather than 사장 (sajang) which wouldn't sound as polite.I hope it helped ^____^ and I hope I don't make it more confusing.

As far as I know, there are only two words for I are 저 (jeo) and 나 (na). 저 (jeo) is the

humble form and 나 (na) is casual. You is generally not used in korean conversation because you can leave out the subject if implied in context. In English, sentences need explicit subjects, but this is not so in conversational Korean. Or using words like 오빠

(oppa, "older brother" if speaker is female, can mean "boyfriend"), 형 (hyeong, "older brother" if speaker is male) etc.

Verbs definitely change depending on who you're talking to unlike English. The reason for this is the relationship between the speaker and the audience is important. So that means the verbs are conjugated differently depending to who I am talking to. For

example Mianhae I would use to say sorry to a close friend. Mianhaeyo for more formal situations. Mianhamnida would be used to say sorry to an elder, a boss, and parents.

To answer your question. The second sentence is slightly wrong. 내 is me rather than I.

Me eat an apple is awkward in English as it is in Korean. So use 저 (jeo) or 나 (na).

Now for the difference between the two is 는(neun) and 가 (ga). Here comes the tricky

part 는(neun) and 가 (ga) are both particles and as far as I know Korean and Japanese

use particles. 는(neun) is a topic particle and 가 (ga) is a subject particle. Particles are used to mark nouns in according to their role (subject, object,or topic). The most confusing part is that the topic and the subject sometimes overlap. But since you are making simple sentences either 는(neun) or 가 (ga) can be used. Also for topic particles

use 는 (neun) or 은 (eun). 는 (neun) is used after vowels and 은 (eun) is after

consonants. The same applies with the subject particles 가 (ga) and 이 (i).I would talk more about the subject vs topic particles but I fear I would end up confusing you and myself (Cause I kinda suck at explaining things). But it looks like you understand the object particles as those were used correctly, though you don't have to use the object particle 를 (reul) 을 (eul).

I'm not too sure about your verb conjugation but I would have wrote 읽어요 (read) and

먹어요 (eat) again you can drop the 요 depending on who you are talking to to make it formal or informal.

I really hoped I helped you guys out. Sadly I left all my Korean textbooks and notes back at my apartment and I am currently home for the holidays so I am not 100% sure on everything.
