Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com! You’re a bit under the weather today during your visit in Korea, and you’re feeling a bit needy as a result. You call the hotel front desk and ask in Korean, “Does your restaurant serve any soup?” The hotel clerk responds in Korean, “Let me transfer you to the restaurant.” After ordering some chicken noodle soup, you ask the person on the phone in Korean, “Can you also send up some cold medicine with the order?” The waitress responds in Korean, “Of course, sir. Is there anything else you need?” You reply in Korean, “Let me think for a minute…maybe a fluffier pillow and a humidifier?” The waitress responds in Korean, “I’ll tell the front desk about the pillow, but this is hotel, not a hospital. I don’t think we have humidifiers here!”
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 ask politely for something you want in Korean. Remember, the more polite you are, the more likely your request in Korean will be granted!

“Hello Massi!”
Thanks for liking the lesson!
What a relief!
Look for the next lesson Massi!
Next lesson will teach you new expression of “hello” in informal Korean.
It’s very interesting!
You do write Korean well! Very imporessive!
Did you read the lesson note as well? If not, you gotta Massi.
A lot of examples and deeper explanation in there.
cheers Massi,

Is there any difficulty to download it?

Hi Chris,
You need to download Korean.

Download it and install it.
Then you will be fine!

Nice to meet you, Tim and Debbie. I like the interactive part where you have us practice the main focus of the lesson. Koreanclass 101 is a great way to study and learn Korean…much better than other methods I’ve tried. I’m really beginning to understand the grammar and sentence structure, in addition to improving my vocabulary. Thank you for superb lessons!

Thanks Palapala?
By the way, is “Palapala” your name?
if not, what does “palapala” mean?
Your comment gave me power and strength to create better lessons.
How kind of you!
New lesson - Absolute Beginner Season 2 Lesson 2 - just posted. Check it out!
I bet you would love love love more than the first lesson. It gets better!
I am not just saying or teaching Korean. That’s not my method at all. My method is one thing - communication!
Please say more about lessons Palapala. I need to hear from you. I need to know what you think about the lessons. I teach some Korean to you and you teach me back how I can improve my lessons.
Again, thanks for listening. You are a good student and friend.
Feel free to ask any question or comment to me or to us.
“Thank you so much~!”
cheers,
Tim

Hello Marina,
This is Tim from KC101.com.
Why don’t you send a direct message to the company?
contactus@koreanclass101.com
I don’t know anything about Absolute Beginner Season 1.
Send a message to the company.
cheers,

Tuesday at 3:00 pm
what happens when you click the link to Season 1,
or can’t you see the link at all?
With me, I don’t have any problem to see the season 1.
Wednesday at 1:35 pm
Okay, I figured something out….I can see it before I log in, but once I’m logged in it’s gone. If I navigate to a lesson while not logged in, log in, then press the ‘back’ button then I can get to the lesson I want. I wrote to contactus@koreanclass101.com twice, but no email back
Thanks for your help, Tim!

Hi,
Just a quick question,”물 주세요” (please give me some water). Is this correct?
Shouldn’t they be using the word, “jum” as in Mul-jum juseyo to be more correct?
Thursday at 6:43 pm
hello Rohit,
물 주세요. that means plz, give me some water.
however, if you say, 물 좀(jum) 주세요. that sounds like polite sentence.
좀(jum) means some.
korean usually say, 물 좀 주세요.
let’s just say, 물 좀 주세요.

what is “money” “bag” and “food” in korea?
and “can you buy me a (noun)”
.. kamsahamnida!
Thursday at 10:38 am
I’m Jaehwi from Koreanclass101.com
You can say 돈 (don / money), 가방 (gabang / bag) and 음식(eumsik / food) in Korean.
To mean ‘can you buy me something’, you can say that ’something 사 줄 수 있어요?(sa jul su itseoyo?)
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
