Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! What is all that racket coming from the apartment next to yours in Korea? It sounds as if someone is banging on drums and smacking cymbals together. You go to your neighbor’s door and knock, but there’s no answer. You knock again and yell in Korean, “Can anyone hear me?” Still, there’s no response. You go back to your apartment and call your neighbor on the phone. This time, your neighbor answers and says in Korean, “Hang on…I can’t hear you.” When the racket quiets, you tell your neighbor in Korean, “You’re making so much noise I can’t hear myself think, much less study.” Your neighbor responds in Korean, “Sorry, I’m not good at judging how loud my band is. We’ll try to keep it down.” You thank your neighbor and make a mental note to pick up some earplugs the next time you’re at the store.
Learning Korean with KoreanClass101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn Korean! This Korean Absolute Beginner lesson will teach you how to say that you’re “not good at” something in Korean. We’ll also show you the Korean word for “can’t” so you can say how impossible things are in Korean. However, we’ll also show you how to say the opposite-that you ARE capable-in Korean, since we specialize in helping people learn what they thought was impossible about the Korean language!

안녕하세요!!
Kayla님~You are getting better and better!! Keep it up
I’m so happy for you. I’ll help your sentence to be more natural.*^^*
저는 슬울(x)/술을(o) 못 마시는데요.
Can you explain “젊” for me?
젊다 –> to be young. / 어리다 –> to be young.

Hello,
This was a great lesson.
I have worked hard and learned a few Korean words. Do you think I will impress people when I go to Korea?
I like Korean seaweed paper. Has anyone here tried it?
Korean study goal for next week: Learn the words for seaweed, dance (v), investigation.
Thanks again everyone.

Hello N2K님
Korean will be surprised even though you speak only”안녕하세요!”
Don’t worry~! Are you going to Korea?
“Seaweed paper” means “김” ?? which is dried seaweed seasoned by salt and sesame oil.
or “미역” ?
Thursday at 3:57 pm
김
I think.
I am not very good at Korean yet.
It is delicious. Japanese people eat it, too, but it is not as salty.
I don’t know if I’m going to Korea yet. I used to have some Korean friends. But they don’t email me back.
Maybe it is because my computer is a mac?
True story: she was planning on marrying a mechanical engineer

Kayla님
So you can say “아직 어려서 술을 못 마셔요!”
New2Korean님
Why don’t you email her again?
I guess your friend is super busy now.
In korea, if you are going to get married, you should prepare so many things.

khairshapiee님 안녕하세요~~
Your sentence is kind of funny. you are saying “I can’t drive well” and ” Teach me Korean!”
Isn’t it funny??
저도 운전 잘 못해요!
한국에서 운전하려면 “끼어들기”만 잘하면 된다는 말이 있어요.

What’s the difference in 한국말 vs. 한국어?
Tuesday at 3:15 am
Typo in lesson notes: 공부잫못해요
Tuesday at 3:16 am
Andy - it’s the same thing. 말 usually denotes more of something like ‘language’ or ‘language type’. 어 is like…doing the language. i think? anyway.. they are used interchangably.
