So today’s class was a big one. It’s the first time we didn’t focus on one particular verb, rather a group of verbs, more specifically, the ‘ha-da’ verbs and a few of the uses and special characteristics that go along with them.

This class is actually the first of when we really get into the ‘nuts and bolts’ of Korean and begin to learn (what I consider) to be the single most important skill you can have if you really want to speak Korean with any kind of fluency.

Ha-da verbs, being as useful and as important as they are, I decided to break into two classes, so next class we’ll look at a few more uses and how just off pure context alone (meaning you don’t have to learn any new grammar), you can actually get two new grammatical tenses (although that’s not unique to ha-da verbs, but that will be the first time we introduce them).

So if you have any questions about class #12, go ahead and post them before we move on to class #13 (ha-da verbs – part 2).

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!
