| Debbie: Debbie here. Tell Me about Your Hobbies in Korean. Hello, KoreanClass101.com listeners. We've been blessed by all the comments you left at KoreanClass101.com. Don't you think so, Tim? |
| Tim: Yes! I can't say "thank you" enough to all the KoreanClass101.com listeners... |
| Debbie: All your comments and feedback have been encouraging us to work harder everyday. |
| Tim: Yes. You guys are awesome! Let's talk about today lesson. What are we learning today? |
| Debbie: Today we are going to learn about the usage of 'A and B'. |
| Tim: When you try to connect two nouns in English, you would only need the word, 'and', but... |
| Debbie: In Korean, there are two words that mean "and". The usage depends on whether the previous syllabic block ends in a consonant or a vowel. This is just like the rule we covered from Absolute Beginner Season 2, lessons 3 and 4. |
| Tim: We will also learn other words such as "also", "together" and how to express "good" in informal Korean. |
| Debbie: Where does this conversation take place? |
| Tim: At the coffee shop - 커피숍에서 |
| Debbie: The conversation is between... |
| Tim: Tim and Sujin. |
| Debbie: Since this conversation is between two friends, the speakers will use informal Korean. |
| Tim: 반말 입니다. |
| Debbie: Let's listen to the conversation. |

| 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: 도, 도 |
| Debbie: Meaning, "also". We need an example. |
| Tim: Okay. Do you like... baseball? |
| Debbie: Not really... |
| Tim: Okay then, do you like... basketball? |
| Debbie: Yes! |
| Tim: 나도, "Me too!" "I" or "me" is 나 in Korean and "too" is 도 in Korean so, "Me too" becomes 나 + 도 - 나도. |
| Debbie: How about "You too"? |
| Tim: "You" is 너 in Korean and... |
| Debbie: "Too" is 도 in Korean so, |
| Tim: "You too" becomes 너 + 도 - 너도. |
| Debbie: Great! Next we have... |
| Tim: 같이. |
| Debbie: Meaning "together". Can you repeat it again? |
| Tim: 같.이 - 같이. |
| Debbie: What's "let's go together" in Korean? |
| Tim: "Let's go" is 가.자 - 가자 in Korean and "together" is 같.이 - 같이 in Korean so "let's go together" becomes 같.이. 가.자 - 같이 가자 in Korean. |
| Debbie: Guys, don't worry about "let's go" 가자 for now. Simply repeat after Tim "Let's go together" in Korean is...? |
| Tim: 같.이. 가.자. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Excellent! Last we have... |
| Tim: 좋.아. 좋.아 - 좋아, 좋아! |
| Debbie: This is a very casual and friendly expression, which is often used between friends in Korea when they agree to something. I like the sound of it! Can you repeat that again? |
| Tim: 좋.아. 좋.아 - 좋아, 좋아! |
| Debbie: Tim, let's end our lesson now! |
| Tim: 좋아, 좋아! No! Wait! What about the grammar point? |
| Debbie: 하하!! I'm just joking, Tim! Now let's move on to the grammar point! |
Lesson focus |
|---|
| Debbie: The focus of this lesson is the usage of "A and B". |
| Tim: In Korean, we have two words that mean "and", which are used to connect two nouns. |
| Debbie: And they are...? |
| Tim: 와 and 과. |
| Debbie: So Tim, what you are saying is when you say "A and B" in Korean, you sometimes say "A 와 B" or "A 과 B", am I correct? |
| Tim: Yes Debbie! "A and B" in English is either "A와 B" or "A과 B" in Korean. |
| Debbie: Then, my question to you is how do we know when to use which one? |
| Tim: 딩.동.댕! Excellent question, Debbie! Do you remember the grammar rule for particles, which we covered in Lessons 3 and 4 of this series? |
| Debbie: Yes. The particles we use depends on whether the previous syllabic block ends in a consonant or a vowel. |
| Tim: Yes! The same rule applies here! |
| Debbie: Okay... Let me think about that...Hmmm... So, in "A and B" in Korean, if the last sound of word A ends in a vowel, then I use what...? |
| Tim: 와, 와! A 와 B! For example, what's "You and I" in Korean? |
| Debbie: "You" is 너 in informal Korean and its romanization is 너 - neo, which ends in a vowel. so "You and I" becomes...? |
| Tim: 너 "와" 나. "I" is 나 in informal Korean. |
| Listeners, please repeat after me, 너.와. 나. |
| [pause] |
| How about "Me and you" in formal Korean Debbie? |
| Debbie: "Me" is 저 in formal Korean and its romanization is 저 - jeo, which ends in a vowel as well. so "Me and you" becomes...? |
| Tim: 저 "와" 당.신. "You" is 당.신 in formal Korean. Please repeat after me, 저.와. 당.신. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Excellent! And with the other one, if the sound that comes at the end of the word A ends in a consonant, then I use...? |
| Tim: 과, 과! A과 B! For example, what's "swimming and basketball" from the dialogue in Korean? |
| Debbie: "Swimming" is 수.영 - 수영 in Korean and its romanization is 수영 - Suyeong, which ends in a consonant. So "swimming and basketball" becomes...? |
| Tim: 수.영."과" 농.구 - 수영과 농구. "Basketball" is 농.구 - 농구 in Korean. |
| Please repeat after me. 수영 "과" 농구 |
| [pause] |
| How about "exercise and study" in Korean, Debbie? |
| Debbie: "Exercise" is (또박또박) 운.동 - 운동 in Korean and its romanization is 운동 - undong, which ends in a consonant as well and "study" is (또박또박)공.부 - 공부 in Korean. So "Exercise and study" becomes...? |
| Tim: 운.동."과". 공.부 - 운동과 공부. |
| Please repeat after me, 운동"과" 공부. |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: Great! Let's review the grammar point. For A and B in Korean, if the sound that comes at the end of the word A ends in a vowel, use 와 so "A and B" becomes A 와 B, and if the sound that comes at the end of the word A ends in a consonant, use 과 so "A and B" becomes A과 B. |
| Tim: Listeners, here is my question. What's "Debbie and Tim" in Korean? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: The answer is... Tim? |
| Tim: 데비"와" 팀. Okay this time, how about "Tim and Debbie" in Korean? |
| [pause] |
| Debbie: The answer is... |
| Tim: 팀"과" 데비. |
Outro |
| Debbie: Great! That's all for this lesson. Thank you for listening. See you next time! |
