Today’s class was the first of what I like to call ‘the nuts and bolts of Korean’ – the skill that you absolutely have to have if you want to be able to move any further into more complex Korean.

More specifically, in today’s class we did what I call ‘ㅗ-verbs’ (‘oh-verbs’). The skill you’ll need to take from this is to know (and be able to change between) the base/root form of a verb, and the ‘changed’ or conjugated form of a verb, and it will become more clear as to exactly why in a few classes as we start bringing in more examples using both.

So, if you have any questions, please reply to this and ask away.

Cheers!

P.S. If you are super new to Korean, interested in trying to learn Korean online, and can’t yet read, I fully recommend you learn how to read and write first as it will make the rest of your learning journey that much less frustrating (’cause it can already be frustrating enough at times). If you look up to the right of this post, you’ll see a big RED sign saying “free”. By putting your name and email into the box just below there, you’ll get class #1 (over 70 mins of video – with hand-out – teaching exactly how to read, write, and pronounce the Korean alphabet) emailed to you right away, and that should get you started off on the right foot. Cheers
