| INTRODUCTION |
| Tim: ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ (Bangabanga) KoreanClass101.com ์ฌ๋ฌ๋ถ (yeoreobun). ํ์ ๋๋ค. (Tim imnida.) |
| Debbie: Debbie here. How Can I Try This Korean Dish If I Can't Even Say Its Name? |
| Tim: Hello everyone! I'm Tim, and welcome to KoreanClass101. Iโm joined here by Debbie. "๋นฐ๋น ๋ผ ๋นฐ~~!" |
| Debbie: ํํ ํ! You seem really happy today! By the way, many listeners have asked so many questions and left positive comments in KoreanClass101.com. So we would like to thank them. Thank you guys! |
| Tim: Yes, Debbie! Their passion for learning Korean is so intense that we have to work harder than ever before! |
| Debbie: That's a good thing! |
| Tim: Okay. Let's talk about today's lesson. What are we learning today? |
| Debbie: Today we are going to learn about a very basic and simple "How" question, which is ์ด๋์ in Korean. |
| Tim: Yes. Korean people often politely ask about feelings and opinions by simply saying, noun + ์ด๋์? "How is the noun?" |
| Debbie: We will also learn some very useful words such as "here and there" and "this and that" and lastly, how to make something plural. Tim, where does this conversation take place? |
| Tim: "At the restaurant" - ์๋น์์. |
| Debbie: The conversation is between... |
| Tim: Tim and a waitress. |
| Debbie: Since this conversation is between two adults who don't know each other well, the speakers will use formal Korean. |
| Tim: ์กด๋๋ง์ ๋๋ค. |
| Debbie: Let's listen to the conversation. |

| POST CONVERSATION BANTER |
| Debbie: I really like 'bibimbab'! |
| Tim: Me, too! And there are so many delicious side dishes. Yum! |
| Debbie: I know! Korean food is all about using a wide variety of nutritious ingredients. |
| Tim: Listeners, wherever you are, do not hesitate to try Korean food - especially 'bibimbab.' |
| Debbie: But Tim... |
| Tim: What Debbie? |
| Debbie: When they order "bibimbab" they have to be aware of "gochujang". Gochujang is quite spicy. |
| Tim: Ah-ha! Thanks Debbie for reminding me about "gochujang". Yes, as Debbie just mentioned, be careful with "gochujang". |
| Debbie: Tim and I prepared tips on ordering "bibimbab" at a Korean restaurant. ์ง์. This is exclusively for KoreanClass101.com listeners. |
| Tim: First, go to a Korean restaurant and say ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ "hello hello" with a big smile. Using ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ ๋ฐฉ๊ฐ can mean that you can pay less when you pay the check. Give it a try! You have nothing to lose! |
| Debbie: And when you order 'bibimbab', request for the "gochujang" to be on the side. |
| Tim: Next, listen to the KoreanClass101.com audio files while waiting for 'bibimbab'. |
| Debbie: As soon as your 'bibimbab' arrives, mix it with "gochujang". Be aware of 'gochujang'! 'Gochujang' is very spicy so use a little at first, then you can add more of it if you want it spicier. |
| Tim: Lastly, enjoy your 'bibimbab. If the 'bibimbab' is too spicy, ask for "water". How do you ask for "water"? Remember Lesson #1, Debbie? |
| Debbie: ๋ฌผ ์ฃผ์ธ์. "Give me some water, please." |
| Tim: Excellent! |
| Debbie: Okay. Let's move on to the vocabulary. |

| VOCAB AND PHRASE USAGE |
| Debbie: Let's have a closer look at the usuage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson. |
| Debbie: Let's have a closer look at the usage for some of the words and phrases from this lesson. The first word is...? |
| Tim: ์ด๊ฒ. ์ ๊ฒ |
| Debbie: Meaning "this" and "that". Can you repeat them again? |
| Tim: ์ด. ๊ฒ - ์ด๊ฒ "this" ์ .๊ฒ - ์ ๊ฒ "that" |
| Debbie: Can those two words "this" and "that" be used to describe nouns? For example, "this table" or "that table" in English? |
| Tim: Excellent question, Debbie! Yes! They can describe nouns by simply placing them right before the nouns - just like how it's used in English. "this table", "that table". Let's look at the example "this table". You know "this" is ์ด๊ฒ in Korean and "table" means ์๋ฆฌ in Korean. |
| Debbie: So... all together "this table" should be ์ด๊ฒ + ์๋ฆฌ, ์ด๊ฒ ์๋ฆฌ! |
| Tim: However... |
| Debbie: However? |
| Tim: You only pronounce the first letter! The first letter is ์ด, so "this table" becomes ์ด + ์๋ฆฌ - ์ด ์๋ฆฌ. |
| Debbie: How about "that table"? |
| Tim: "That" is ์ ๊ฒ in Korean and... |
| Debbie: I only pronounce the first letter ์ when describing nouns so... |
| Tim: "That table" becomes ์ + ์๋ฆฌ - ์ ์๋ฆฌ. |
| Debbie: Great! That sounds pretty easy! What's next? |
| Tim: Noun + ๋ค! |
| Debbie: Yes. In English when you make something plural, you add 's' or 'es' right after the noun. |
| Tim: In Korean, we add ๋ค instead. For example, let's look at "side dish" from the dialogue. "Side dish" is ๋ฐ.์ฐฌ - ๋ฐ์ฐฌ in Korean. |
| Debbie: And what's "side dishes" in Korean? |
| Tim: ๋ฐ์ฐฌ.๋ค - ๋ฐ์ฐฌ๋ค. |
| Debbie: Great! Now let's move on to the grammar. |
Lesson focus |
|---|
| Debbie: The focus of this lesson is how to express a very basic and simple "How" question in Korean, like in English "how is [blank]?" or "how about [blank]?" |
| Tim: We can simply translate "how is or how about" into "์ด.๋.์ - ์ด๋์". |
| Debbie: In Korean you often politely ask about feelings and opinions by saying ์ด๋์? We need an example. Tim, "How do my clothes look today?" |
| Tim: Your clothes? Horrible.. Terrible.. |
| Debbie: (with an angry voice) Tim! |
| Tim: Sorry, Debbie. Just joking! Listeners, "clothes" is ์ท in Korean. |
| Debbie: "My" is ๋ด in Korean. So, "How do my clothes look?" is... |
| Tim: ๋ด "my" + ์ท "clothes" + ์ด๋์? "how are?" ๋ด ์ท ์ด๋์? "How are my clothes?" or "How do my clothes look?" |
| Debbie: "Horrible! Terrible!" |
| Tim: Haha. Okay listeners, please repeat after me. ๋ด ์ท ์ด๋์? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great! By the way Tim... |
| Tim: What, Debbie? |
| Debbie: Can I also say, ๋ด ์ท"์" ์ด๋์? We learned about particles from Lesson 3. |
| Tim: Wow, Debbie! ์ง์ง์ง! Great! Actually, ๋ด ์ท ์ด๋์ comes from ๋ด ์ท"์" ์ด๋์. You are 100% correct! |
| Debbie: Let's take a look at one more example from the dialogue. What's "How is this bibimbab?" in Korean? |
| Tim: "This" is ์ด๊ฒ in Korean and "bibimbab" is ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ. When "this" and "that" describes a noun, you only pronounce the first letter. Therefore, "this bibimbab" becomes ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ in Korean. |
| Debbie: ์ด "this" + ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ "bibimbab" + ์ด๋์? "how is?" so, altogether... it becomes ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ ์ด๋์? "How is this bibimbab?" |
| Tim: Or you may also say ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ"์" ์ด๋์? by adding particle ์ right after ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ "this bibimbab". |
| Debbie: Okay. Let's quickly review the lesson! Listeners, pretend you are in a Korean restaurant and you are about to order 'bibimbab'. |
| And you Tim, pretend you are a waitress at that Korean restaurant. Be polite to your customer! |
| Tim: Waitress!? Why waitress!? |
| Debbie: Okay listeners, let's start! you want to know Tim's opinion on the 'bibimbab' you are about to order. Can you say to Tim, "How is this bibimbab?" in Korean? |
| Tim: Remember, "this bibimbab" is ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ and "How is..." is ์ด๋์ in Korean. |
| Debbie: What is "How is this bibimbab" in Korean...? |
| [pause] |
| Tim: The answer is ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ ์ด๋์? ์ด ๋น๋น๋ฐฅ์ ์ด๋์? |
Outro |
| Debbie: Okay. That's all for this lesson. Thank you for listening and thanks, Tim. |
| Tim: ์ฌ๋ฌ๋ถ ๋ค์์๊ฐ๊น์ง ์๋ ~~ |
