Korean names for classes, and 'planner' words...

[CaoMei513]

안녕하세요 여러분~

I am a college student, and I've decided to help my Korean by keeping my planner/agenda completely in Korean. But to do that, I need to know the Korean translations of the classes that I'm taking, as well as some other words that would be used in writing a agenda... Here are the names of the classes I'm taking, along with my attempt at translation (which are probably wrong or slightly off...).

Psychology of the Learner - 학습자 심리학
Psychology Across Cultures/Cultural Psychology- 문화심리학
Varieties of English/ (English) Dialect Diversity- 영어다양성
Structure of Modern English- ???
Linguistics- 언어학

Also, I need to know the best translation of 'due', as in, "this assignment is due monday" or to write a quick note saying "Due tomorrow!!" ...and of course any other words that would be important in keeping a student's agenda....

One more thing, when writing in my planner, I'm assuming I should use the 'plain' -ㄴ다 form for everything? Or is there a better form to use when I'm writing out things in a to-do list style?

Sorry for so many questions, and thanks so much for the help ^_^

Thanks for your comment.

Structure of Modern English - 현대 영어의 구조.
this assignment is due monday -
이 숙제 "this assignment"
까지 "due"
월요일 "Monday"
이 숙제는 월요일까지 (입니다).

"Due tomorrow!! -
까지 "due"
내일 "tomorrow"
내일 까지 (입니다).

You wrote,
"when writing in my planner, I'm assuming I should use the 'plain' -ㄴ다 form for everything? Or is there a better form to use when I'm writing out things in a to-do list style?"

When writing in your planner, it's better to just put sentences without saying verbs. For example,
this assignment is due monday - 이 숙제는 월요일까지
"Due tomorrow!! - 내일 까지

I think that's all I can give you so far,
Hope to see you through KoreanClass101.com lessons.
cheers,

고마워요 Tim씨~!

Thank you for the reply, however I am still wondering about writing some verbs... I understand what you mean about leaving them out sometimes, but what if I needed to say "read pages 1-10" or "complete rough draft" or something?

[timandyou]

If I were you, or if I write my schedule, I would like to use "- 기" form of verbs.

e.g)
하다 hada "to do" becomes 하기 hagi "will do"
보다 bode "to see" becomes 보기 bogi "will see"
읽다 ilda "to read" becomes 읽기 ilgi "will read"

"Read pages 1-10" becomes
1-10까지 읽기.

"due tomorrow" becomes
내일까지 하기.

I think "- 기" form is useful for you!

p.s -기 is used when promising oneself to do something.
I often used this form when I was young - self promising.
cheers,

Tim
