Lesson Transcript

Gyeong-eun: 안녕하세요(Annyeonghaseyo)!
Hyunwoo: Hello. Welcome to koreanclass101.com’s picture video vocab, lesson #14. In A Classroom in Korea. My name is 현우 선, and I am joined in the studio by 경은.
Gyeong-eun: 안녕하세요, 최경은입니다. Welcome back to the picture video vocab lesson everyone.
Hyunwoo: In our picture video vocab lessons, we take a look at one or more photos of an everyday scene in Korea.
Gyeong-eun: And introduce the vocabulary words that can be found inside the photos.

Gyeong-eun: KoreanClass101.com
Hyunwoo: Now, in this lesson 경은씨, where are we now? 우리 지금 어디에 있어요(Uri jigeum eodie isseoyo)?
Gyeong-eun: We are in the university classroom. 대학교 교실에 있어요(Daehakgyo gyosire isseoyo).
Hyunwoo: Well 경은씨 as far as I know, it’s been a while since you graduated from college, right? 대학교 졸업한지 오래 됐죠(Daehakgyo joreopanji orae dwaetjyo)?
Gyeong-eun: 아니에요! 별로 안 됐어요. Anyway, it seems like the class has already begun.
Hyunwoo: Yeah I think so. So first, let’s look at the word for class.
Gyeong-eun: 수업(sueop). 수-업(su-eop).
Hyunwoo: And 수업(sueop) usually takes place in a classroom.
Gyeong-eun: 교실(gyosil). 교-실(gyo-sil).
Hyunwoo: And we are in this 교실(gyosil) and I see a lot more girls than boys.
Gyeong-eun: 네. 남학생보다 여학생이 더 많은 것 같아요(Namhaksaengboda yeohaksaengi deo maneun geot gatayo).
Hyunwoo: What’s the word again?
Gyeong-eun: 남학생(namhaksaeng).
Hyunwoo: Male student.
Gyeong-eun: 남-학-생(nam-hak-saeng).
Hyunwoo: And
Gyeong-eun: 여학생(yeohaksaeng).
Hyunwoo: Female student.
Gyeong-eun: 여-학-생(yeo-hak-saeng).
Hyunwoo: Yeah. There is more female students than male students. 남학생보다 여학생이 더 많아요(Namhaksaengboda yeohaksaengi deo manayo). And I am very happy to be here.
Gyeong-eun: Okay. And the students are still talking to each other.
Hyunwoo: Yeah. I think the student up there is preparing for his presentation.
Gyeong-eun: But you know, some teachers hate it when students have 잡담(japdam).
Hyunwoo: Yeah that’s true but what’s the word again?
Gyeong-eun: 잡담(japdam).
Hyunwoo: Chitchat, small talk.
Gyeong-eun: 잡-담(jap-dam).
Hyunwoo: Well, I don’t think the teacher would mind right now because it is helping the student who is preparing for his presentation. So, how do you say presentation in Korean?
Gyeong-eun: 발표(balpyo). 발-표(bal-pyo).
Hyunwoo: 경은씨. You must have been very good at 발표(balpyo) when you were in school. 학교에 다닐때 발표 잘 했을 것 같아요(Hakgyoe danilttae balpyo jal haesseul geot gatayo).
Gyeong-eun: Me? I wasn’t good at 발표(balpyo) when I was in school because I was really shy.
Hyunwoo: Actually that’s what I thought.
Gyeong-eun: What?
Hyunwoo: Just kidding. But anyway, before any class begins, there is something most teachers do to make sure nobody is skipping the class.
Gyeong-eun: 아, 출석체크요(chulseokchekeuyo)?
Hyunwoo: Yeah. The attendance check.
Gyeong-eun: 출-석-체-크(chul-seok-che-keu).
Hyunwoo: But also using the verb to call 부르다(bureuda) you can say?
Gyeong-eun: 출석을 부르다(Chulseogeul bureuda). 선생님이 출석을 부르고 있어요(Seonsaengnimi chulseogeul bureugo isseoyo).
Hyunwoo: The teacher is doing a roll call.
Gyeong-eun: Yeah like this: 선현우--
Hyunwoo: 네.
Gyeong-eun: 최경은--
Hyunwoo: 안 왔는데요. She is not here.
Gyeong-eun: I am here.
Hyunwoo: Well, now that we’ve just mentioned it, let’s talk briefly about how to say present and absent in Korean.
Gyeong-eun: To be present is 출석하다(chulseokhada).
Hyunwoo: 출석하다, and to be absent is 결석하다(gyeolseokada).
Gyeong-eun: 결-석-하-다(gyeol-seo-ka-da).
Hyunwoo: And actually the word 결석하다(gyeolseokada) to be absent is used very commonly, but for to be present, 출석하다 sounds a little too formal. Don’t you think?
Gyeong-eun: Yeah I agree. So people usually say 나오다(naoda).
Hyunwoo: Which means to come out.
Gyeong-eun: Right. By the way, it looks like the presentation is going to start soon. 곧 발표가 시작될 것 같아요(Got balpyoga sijakdoel geot gatayo).
Hyunwoo: Okay. We got to be quiet. But what did your teachers say when they wanted the students to be quiet when you were in school?
Gyeong-eun: My teachers usually say, 조용히 하세요(Joyonghi haseyo).
Hyunwoo: My teachers too but some of them just said, 수업 시작하겠습니다(sueop sijakagetseumnida), and everybody went quiet.
Gyeong-eun: Really?
Hyunwoo: It’s just for five minutes. And then everybody starts either talking or sleeping.
Gyeong-eun: 아, 진짜요?
Hyunwoo: Well, actually not everybody because I was studying hard all the time. 저는 항상 공부를 열심히 했거든요(Jeoneun hangsang gongbureul yeolsimhi haetgeodeunyo).
Gyeong-eun: Yeah. Of course.
Hyunwoo: You don’t sound like you believe me 제 말을 안 믿으시는 것 같지만(Je mareul an mideusineun geot gatjiman), but anyway, let’s get out of here. Let’s leave the 교실(gyosil) before the 발표(balpyo) starts.
Gyeong-eun: Okay. 빨리 가요(Ppalli gayo).
Hyunwoo: Okay.
