More ideas for *learning Korean*

We've done a few posts on Learning to speak Korean, including info on some great free websites like TalkToMeInKorean.

Another really fun way to learn and practice your Korean is through a great TV show called "Let's Speak Korean":

Let's Speak Korean hosts Lisa Kelley and Young Kim guide learners through a fun and entertaining way to memorize and apply practical sayings in Korean. Lisa Kelley, the female host of Let's Speak Korean plays a role of a kind teacher or a "good cop" role, while the male host, Young Kim plays a rather strict teacher or "bad cop" role.

So, you can watch the series online through the site TVClip.biz, and of course through their youtube channel I love Korean .

Here is a short clip of one of their episodes...it's a really fun way to learn!

How to send Korean text messages!

I have just stubled upon a really great website for learning Korean. It is affiliated with the wonderful TalkToMeInKorean, and is called the Korean Wiki Project.

For those out there that have  a Korean phone and feel compelled to send a text message (sms) to a friend in Korean but have been unable to find all the letters, heres some really useful info!!

The following is from KoreanWiki:

Anycall(Samsung) and EVER(KTFT) phones

Anycall and EVER (brand) phones use •, ㅡ and ㅣ to create vowels when text messaging.

Anycall & EVER phone keypad

Sky™(팬택&큐리텔) Phones

Sky™ (brand) phones have a different style of text messaging. Unlike the standard way, you don't use • and ㅣ to create vowels.

The consonants are self explanatory, so the table below shows how to create all the Korean vowels

CYON(LG) and CanU(팬택&큐리텔) Phones

Motorola Phones

So there you go!

The above all comes from the totally awesome KoreanWikiProject.com
