Sunday we had a live Korean classroom about verb endings. These are some of the most commonly used verb endings, and they each have unique uses.

We learned about the verb endings ~네(요), ~지(요), ~나(요) or ~가(요), ~(는)군(요), and ~(는)구나. The full live stream was over an hour and a half, but the shortened version here is just 15 minutes.

Korean writing at first glance may appear to be similar to Chinese or Japanese, especially if this is a new language to you. But upon a closer look, especially with a piece of text by each language placed next to each other, it’s easy to see Korean is quite different, after all.

Some may even be mind blown when they realize the Korean language isn’t written by characters but with their own alphabetic system. This can certainly gain one’s interest in how the Korean writing system works.
