You have been working with your child for months to teach him to speak Korean. Everyone knows that learning a foreign language is easier when you begin young, so you plan to teach him as many languages as you can while his young mind is still a sponge. This week you are teaching him to make comparisons in Korean. You start with some simple examples in Korean, “I like dogs better than cats.” Your son looks at you confused. You try another Korean example, “I like hamburgers more than pizza.” He still sits there looking at you as if he is horribly confused…or bored to death! Okay, one more example in Korean and then you will ask him what he doesn’t understand. As your wife passes by, you tell your son in Korean, “I like movies more than books.” Your son turns and whispers to your wife in Korean, “I like mommy more than daddy!” Well, he’s learning more than you thought!

We all know someone…maybe it’s even you. You know who I’m talking about. Everyone knows someone who claims to be the best cook. Today, you found that somebody in Korea. A well-meaning friend you met in Korea invited you to their home for a home-cooked Korean meal. You told them in Korean, “I have been eating in Korean restaurants every night because I am poor at cooking.” Feeling very badly for you, they replied in Korean, “I am very good at cooking. You should eat dinner with me!” You were thrilled at the invite…until you arrived at his house and smelled a terrible smell. You asked again in Korean, “are you good at cooking?” Your friend replied again in Korean, “oh, yes, I am very good at cooking!” Then he handed you a spoon with some mushy green stuff on it and told you in Korean, “say ahh!” You opened your mouth, tasted the murky green liquid, and without thinking screamed in Korean, “No, you are not good at cooking!” Now, you wish you could eat your words!
