Some of you have asked me if I have been learning to speak Korean. Well I have only really learned a few phrases. I figured I would post some of them for you and let you try to learn them as well.
1. An-nyeong-ha-se-yo. . . . . . . . .Hello
2. Kam-sa-ham-ni-da. . . . . . . . . .Thank you
3. Mi-an-ham-ni-da. . . . . . . . . . . I'm sorry
4. Sil-leh-ham-ni-da. . . . . . . . . . .Excuse me
5. Do-wa-ju-se-yo . . . . . . . . . . . .Help me
6. Wha-jangsil-e-odi-yeyo . . . . . . .Where is the restroom?
7. Jooseyo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Please give me _______
8. Eol-ma-ye-yo . . . . . . . . . . . . .How much is this?
9. Bee-ssa-yo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . It is expensive
10. Ggagga-jooseyo . . . . . . . . . . Give me a discount
11. Yogi, Chogi . . . . . . . . . . . . . Here, There
12. Oh-run-jok, When-jok . . . . . . Right, Left
13. Ne, Aniyo . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Yes, No
There you have it. You can now say you can speak Korean. Hope you all have a great day.

It looks like it's a lot harder to say those words than it is in english! I'm sure I would massacre the pronunciation too!
Okay, I've been here almost a year, and you've already learned A LOT more Korean than I have!
Wow! That's an awful lot of words/syllables just to say simple things like hello! I think I'll stick to Spanish and leave the Korean to you ;)
I recognize the hello. That's how DongJoo answered the phone. It's spelled completely different than I thought though!
Yeah, now I can speak fluent Korean... Just kidding of course.. Why is it that the small words have the most syllables and letters and the big ones are short. Go figure.. Thanks Andy for the lesson
Good to know some Korean for when you bring home a wife from there!!!
wow. dont think I even want to try to pronounce those
I do remember "jooseyo" from an episode of MASH
I think I'll concentrate on the that is too expensive and give me a discount ones - I like that! :)
Look at you - learning and teaching from afar - you make your auntie d oh so proud!
