BILLLIIEEE, I MET AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT AT MY SCHOOL, SHE IS KOREAN AND I SAID 안녕하세요 AND SHE WAS SO SHOOKETH AND we had a nice little convo after that. It made me very happy! Thank you so much for the online classes 😊
@@KaSandraChannel2 you can change your keyboard in Korean you just go to settings keyboard or language keyboard that what mine said idk about yours tho and then you can change the language
Awesome! Thank you! However from this episode it will not match up much with the book since the video series is organized differently. It should be fine to use both if you'd like. Just know they won't match up.
thank you billy for the learning of the hangul in the previous lessons. I have enjoyed learning how to say hello and goodbye plus the differences between them. i am 44 years old ( english age) and i am studying along side my 15 year old daughter ( english age). This is a great bonding tool with my daughter. i will be learning every lesson
아녕하세요! Thank you for the lesson, 선생님! I'm learning Korean as a hobby and am about 3 weeks into it. I'm really enjoying it! Was able to read a few items on the menu at a local korean restaurant and impressed my friends 😂 so excited to learn more with this course!
I'm 4 years late commenting, but check your history Billy. While the Korean War modified the border between N. and S. Korea, the original split occurred after WWII. That said, I really appreciate your lessons. Well done.
i'm having so much fun learning 한국어. i feel like it is the easiest of the "big 3" asian languages that everyone is familiar with. 한글 is the best writing system in the world, and i'm so glad i can read it! when i'm watching k dramas now on my PC (windows store netflix app), i pause to read signs and other things in 한글 to practice my reading and pronunciation. i'm still pretty slow, but with less than 10 hours in the fact that i can read it is very impressive to me. i get more motivated the more i learn, even though it looks more and more daunting. also, does anyone know of a way to display dual subs on PC? i want to display english subs for understanding, but 한국어 subs also so i can match what they are saying to the letters on the screen.
Thank you Billy for more great content! I actually have a much simpler way to calculate Korean age (international to Korean): If you had your birthday this calendar year, add 1. If you haven't, add 2. To convert from Korean to international, subtract instead of adding.
Here at Lesson 10, I just want to say how much I love these lessons - I make it a priority to atleast learn and take notes three times a week. I previously used TTMIK to learn and I was also into the beginner lessons , but your explenations and way of teaching is so much better - You set such a solid foundation from the get go which I didnt really get from TTMIK , not hating on them , just want to point out how helpful learning from you have been compared to other learning platforms.
If you're still curious about that, '안녕히 계세요' is what the person leaving says to the person who remains. And, '안녕히 가세요' is what someone who remains says to someone who leaves.
Billy u are awesome my whole school girls are fan of kpop so they also want to learn Korean and I am teaching them with the help of your video even though my school principal also thank u so much billy
My birthday is January 7th. Guess that makes it a little easier for me to calculate, since I'm pretty much always my actual age in Korea as well, just for 6 days more in Korea 😂
In my country same : Hello - As salamu alykum wa rahmatullahi rabarakah It's formal and accurate And for friends is Salam. And one should reply to the saying : wa alykum as Salam It all means May peace and blessings be upon you. Goodbye : Allah hafez means leave in safety in the name of God.
The way Billy says 안녕하세요 and 안녕 sounds like he is saying an yung like it rhymes with onion. It is very weird because it is different than how I have otherwise heard it pronounced. I have only heard it pronounced as ahn yoe ng. With a long o sound. I have also heard the 어 and 여 letters be pronounced halfway between oh and uh.
First, let me say my husband and I love this video series! We do watch other channels, but yours is our "class" channel. However, I'm stuck on 요, especially in the example of 안녕하세요. You yourself pronounce 요 two different ways in your examples around 2:40. So many other vidos I've watched for this word, as well as your next video saying "자는 ... 이여요," it sounds close to (but not as strong as) the English word "oh," or "yo," or close to 여. Please help me out with this! It's the last letter that I'm struggling with in the 한근.
So it took me forever last night to figure out why it was so hard to say my name when trying to introduce myself. Amber, ends in a consonant right? So I need to put 이에요 right? Then I when I looked up my name in Korean its 앰버....that's a vowel at the end 😂😂
Hi Billy. Thank you for these videos! What do you say if you are both leaving? For example, if you meet someone for a movie and you are both going home separately afterwards.
You'd still use the correct one based on whether the other person is staying or leaving. If they're leaving, then you'd use the one for them leaving :)
The only thing changing is calculating Korean age, and probably only for younger people who are aware of the change. Nothing about how you speak will change with the update this year.
I am 15 in korea!!! It's so strange yet fascinating that I could meet someone my same age, in Korea their just 15 and in America there 14!! Insane!! 😳🤯🤯🤯
Korean age is based on the solar calendar not the lunar calendar?... My mom's Korean and always based my Korean age on the lunar calendar which makes me 2 years older.
잘 가 is not just informal, but it's casual. There will be a lesson in this series (later on) that teaches casual speech, and when it's appropriate to use.
Lesson 10: HELLO & GOODBYE ✅ Billy, I have a question, I told my penpal "안녕하세요" she replied with "안녕하세유" and same with "안녕히 계세요" she replied with "안녕히계스유" Is this the same thing as 안녕하세요 & 안녕히 계세요 and what does this mean?? Is "유" an ending form?? Or Am I overthinking this.... I was surprised when I got this reply since I was expecting a 안녕하세요 & 안녕히 계세요 as the reply since that's the only thing that I have learned so far😅 so... Just wanted a clarification on this, 감사합니다🙏
Could you please explain when/how to bow in order to be polite? In my country nobody would ever bow, not even to His Majesty the King... Thus, I'm a complete newbie to a culture where not bowing could be really rude.
@@GoBillyKorean Thank you! Visiting a new culture always come with a few oopsies. I compare it with Americans visiting Sweden, and always getting odd looks for being too loud, too fond of hugging, always seeking eye contact. But they are not being rude on purpose. Quite the opposite, they are trying their very best to be friendly, polite according to American culture. Judging that would be like judging glossary in a foreign language. Pretty pointless. Besides, in my experience it matters much more that others see you honestly trying.
Yes, but also no. ua-cam.com/video/VX3o83V8bjQ/v-deo.html I made a video about it, and not much has changed as far as actual usage with most people. Maybe in a few more years there might be some noticeable changes?
If you're able to use casual speech with them, then yes. Otherwise no. If you're curious, you can ask them how they'd prefer you speak with them if you're a beginner. However, the way that you speak with them might only be depending on your relationship with them, even if it would be inappropriate for a Korean in the same situation to speak that way - meaning, if they give you permission to speak casually with them but they're older, you should still make sure to only speak politely to them in front of other people who don't know about your arrangement in order to not sound rude.
@@GoBillyKorean Thank You for your reply Billy!!😍technically Chinese have three ways When it comes to age counting. first You use spring festival as the day You grow one year older, secondly You use your birthday and that's also your legal age, lastly which i think is also the wildly used way is using January 1st. Cuz i remember many ppl including me in our childhood, We like to use the last way to make our age look two years older than our actual age:D
German also uses the "I pizza eat" sentence structure. Among those who study the effects of language upon thinking, this structure creates stronger thinking powers because the listener must hold all the information in mind until the end when what's happening is finally revealed. Such as "The dog of the boy over the shallow creek ... jumped."
We also hold all of the information in our minds when speaking English. It's just the information we hold is different grammar. There isn't any intelligence benefit to speaking any language over another.
안녕하세요 Billy! Could you help me? I have two questions related to this class. What if my close Korean friend is older than me in Korean age? Should I still say "안녕하세요" instead of 안녕? And do I need to bow when saying "안녕히 가세요" and 안녕히 개세요"?
The longer phrases are more formal, so you wouldn't use them with any *close* friends. But these aren't the only way to greet someone, just some quick phrases to get you started. You'll learn a lot more expressions through this course once you start getting into the grammar rules :-)
Okay, so, I want to know for future reference. So, like, I have a friend who was born in the year before I was born, so is older than me in Korean age. This friend doesn't speak, nor is planning to learn Korean as far as I know, but I would still like to know what I would say in a situation like this: 안녕 or 안녕하세요
This episode is solely a quick introduction to some phrases. In later episodes of this series you'll learn how you can speak with friends or people who are close. If you're using Korean to someone who doesn't understand any Korean, then whether you say 안녕 or 안녕하세요 isn't going to be the main problem.
This is because ㅎ isn't a strong "H" like in English. It's really just extra air. Because of that, it often isn't pronounced when it doesn't come at the beginning of a new word. I made a video about it here: ua-cam.com/video/huUxUQP_O0Q/v-deo.html
Technically in Korean years, yes. But in reality, nobody refers to newborn babies as 1 year old in Korea. Instead they'll use months, just like we do in English.
This series will eventually teach phrases like that too, in much later episodes. That's used in Casual Speech only, and means the same thing as 안녕히 가세요 but is not polite.
AGE QUESTION. If a child is born on December 30 in Korea, she would be one year old. So on the subsequent January 1, two days later, would she be considered two years old? Two years in two days? 하하하하
Technically, yes. However, nobody would actually say their baby's age in years (we don't in English either). More common is to use months or even weeks.
Korean age still confuses me to this day, and I still can't easily figure it out, even with the math formula. And although it has officially been removed from Korea, it's going to be a long time before Koreans stop using it. As for the greetings, think of it as the difference between "Hello" and "What's up?" However, in daily life here in Korea, most people don't care that much about formalities, unless you're being intentionally rude/disrespectful. I use 'annyeong' all the time.
Ik am late But still gonna reply lol If your birthday hasn't come this year Then you're gonna add 2 age to your Normal age And if your birthday already passed then you gonna add 1 year to your Normal age I hope I make sense
Note that as of June 2023, "Korean Age" (known as 한국 나이) has been officially removed from Korea. This means you can now use your regular "International Age" (known as 만 나이) to say how old you are. However, this change does not affect politeness levels (which still use the year someone is born), titles, or other aspects of the culture.

I noticed that too, I bought the book and these help a lot with sound that you cant get from just reading
the “subject, object, verb” is also in my native language, Urdu! so i hope it will be easy for me to form sentences in korean
Just realized Hindi is too! 😂 Wonder why it didn't occur to me lol

I could never remember the difference between 안녕히 가세요 and 안녕히 계세요 but hearing the direct translations really helps!!
If you're still curious about that,
'안녕히 계세요' is what the person leaving says to the person who remains.
And, '안녕히 가세요' is what someone who remains says to someone who leaves.
This course is fascinating
That was easy to learn and understand thank u Billie 🥰

Gonna need to update this in June, 2023 - no more Korean age! The country is standardizing age to match the rest of the world.

안녕하세요! 빌리 씨!
Shouldn't it be written like this: 안녕하세요 ? Is 2:47 an alternate way of writing it ?
Do you mean with a question mark? That's not an issue :-) That's more like "Hello?"
1:24 omg ım so lucky cuz korean language's sentence structure same with turkish sentence structure :) yeeeyyy
It's similar with many other languages. Definitely not with English :P
Korean age is based on the solar calendar not the lunar calendar?... My mom's Korean and always based my Korean age on the lunar calendar which makes me 2 years older.

As for the greetings, think of it as the difference between "Hello" and "What's up?" However, in daily life here in Korea, most people don't care that much about formalities, unless you're being intentionally rude/disrespectful. I use 'annyeong' all the time.
You're correct about the age. I made a video about Korean age here: ua-cam.com/video/VX3o83V8bjQ/v-deo.html
I'm a bit confused on how to add my Korean age @_@
Sameeee, I did it and it said I was 2 years older. I suppose it makes it more weird if you aren’t born close to January
Ik am late But still gonna reply lol
If your birthday hasn't come this year Then you're gonna add 2 age to your Normal age
And if your birthday already passed then you gonna add 1 year to your Normal age
I hope I make sense
@@jaisyleel612 ohh okay ty so that means I'm 14 in Korea
Second
The sentence structure is similar to hindi too
