먹으려 했는데 점심 때 잊어버려서 못 먹었어요 ㅋㅋㅋ

동지도 가고, 이젠 크리스마스랑 설날이 남았네요 ^^ 즐거운 겨울 보내세요 ^^

그어어...
캐나다를 가볼까하는데
겨울이라 어디 돌아다닐만한 곳이 있나 모르겠네요ㅠ

okay so i won't lie kpop totally sparked my interest in learning korean; tonight i've been teaching myself hangul and it's surprisingly easy?

however i'm a bit confused, what purpose does ㅇserve at the beginning of a word or syllable since it's silent? it's stumping me a little bit since it just kind of seems to be thrown in at random at times ahaha


edit;;
WAIT OK so since i posted this i think ive figured it out?? you use ㅇ when you begin the word or syllable with a vowel, right?
since for 안녕하세요, 안 and 요 are the only syllables that start with ㅇand a vowel
i cant believe how easy hangul is ahh

sorry for such a dumb question lmAO i havent started into grammar or vocabulary lessons yet,,

It's okay to have questions. No one can know all. ^-^

You're right.
ㅇ sounds nothing when it comes front.
But when it comes last, it sounds [ng], for examples, 녕[nyeong].

I'm pretty sure that Hangul is easy.
But, Korean is hard to learn, especially grammar.

Good luck to your study!
Please ask anytime if you have other questions. c:

for now im just focusing on memorizing the alphabet and sounding out words written in hangul when i see them hehe.
spoken korean is still an enigma to me... :p but im gonna try my best!

[Caelus]
