8 Greeting people Dialogue Track 5 수지 Susie: 준호 Junho: 수지 Susie: 준호 Junho: 안녕하세요. Hello. 안녕하세요. Hello. 안녕히가세요. Goodbye. 안녕히계세요. Goodbye. Explanation It might be surprising that there is no separate greeting for good morning, good afternoon, or good evening in Korean. 안녕하세요 annyeong-haseyo, which literally means Are you at peace? is a greeting used any time of the day and in almost any situation where the English greeting hello is used. To say goodbye, Koreans use 안녕히가세요 annyeonghi-gaseoyo or 안녕히계세요 annyeonghi-gyeseyo. This is a polite way of greeting someone. If Koreans want to be less formal when saying hello or goodbye, they use 안녕 or some other phrases as shown in the table below. Hello Nice to meet you Goodbye Goodbye when you are leaving Good-bye to someone who is leaving See you again Formal polite 안녕하세요 annyeong-haseyo 만나서반갑습니다 mannaseo bangapseumnida 안녕히계세요 annyeonghi-gyeseyo 안녕히가세요 annyeonghi-gaseoyo Informal polite 안녕 annyeong 만나서반가워요 mannaseo bangawoyo 안녕 annyeong 잘있어요 jal-isseoyo 잘가요 jal-gayo 또만나요 tto-mannayo State of New South Wales, Department of Education and Communities, /27

Naming family members Addressing people in Korea The proper use of names is an important part of Korean culture.

Listen to a dialogue where Susie introduces her brother to Junho. How does she address her brother? Dialogue Track 8 준호 Junho: 안녕, 수지.

15 Naming family members Addressing people in Korea The proper use of names is an important part of Korean culture. Except among classmates and other very close friends, Koreans usually don t use their first names to address each other. Instead, they use titles that describe the relationships or kinship between and among people such as older brother and old sister, which is not common in western culture. Kinship terms such as older sister, uncle, grandmother, or grandfather are used instead to address old people who are not necessarily related to them. Therefore, it is important to know kinship terms, i.e. naming family members, for your first step in learning Korean. Listen to a dialogue where Susie introduces her brother to Junho. How does she address her brother? Dialogue Track 8 준호 Junho: 안녕, 수지. Hi, Susie. 수지 Susie: 안녕, 준호. Hi, Junho. 준호 Junho: 누구예요? Who is it? 수지 Susie: ( 여기는 ) 오빠예요. (This) is my brother.

Here is the list of people you might want to introduce! Use the titles when introducing them as shown in the table.

16 Did you know? In social activities or at the workplace, family names with titles, such as teacher or manager are used with the honorific suffix nim to address respect. For example, a teacher who has a family name of Kim would be addressed Kim seonsaeng nim - Kim (family name) seon-saeng (teacher) nim (honorific suffix). Sentence pattern Q. 누구 + 예요? A. Title + 이에요. 예요. A Korean word, 가족 gajok means family in English. Koreans usually say 우리가족이에요 uri gajok-ieyo to introduce their family to others. Here is the list of people you might want to introduce! Use the titles when introducing them as shown in the table. Korean English meaning Korean English meaning 아버지 a-beo-ji father 형 hyeong an older brother of a boy 어머니 eo-meo-ni mother 누나 nu-na an older sister of a boy 오빠 o-ppa an older brother of a girl 동생 dong-saeng a younger brother or sister 언니 eon-ni an older sister of a girl 친구 chin-gu friend 누구예요? 우리가족이에요.

19 Asking where someone lives Track 10 Dialogue 수지 Susie: 친구는어디 ( 에 ) 살아요? Where does your friend live? 준호 Junho: 친구는시드니에살아요. She lives in Sydney. 수지 Susie: 형은어디 ( 에 ) 살아요? Where does your brother live? 준호 Junho: 형은멜버른에살아요. He lives in Melbourne. Note: Brackets ( ) around words in a dialogue show that those words can be omitted. In these sentences, the particle, 에 indicates the place where a person is located. It corresponds to in or at in English. Sentence pattern In Korean, if you want to talk about a specific person, the person s name or title plus 은 / 는 eun/neun is put at the beginning of the sentence. So when you want to say where a particular person lives, follow the pattern below. Person s name / title + 은 or 는 + place where person lives + 에 + 살아요. State of New South Wales, Department of Education and Communities, /27

Explanation How to decide the use of 은 / 는 :

is a vowel, so you need to use 민수는시드니에 This

In Hangeul, a syllable consists of a consonant

20 Explanation How to decide the use of 은 / 는 : For words ending in a vowel, 는 neun is added, otherwise 은 eun is added. The topic marker normally goes at the beginning of a sentence. ㅇ is a consonant, so you need to use 형은멜버른에 ㅜ is a vowel, so you need to use 민수는시드니에 This will be simple and logical to you when you master the 14 consonants and 10 vowels of Hangeul script. In Hangeul, a syllable consists of a consonant plus a vowel (CV) or a consonant plus a vowel plus a consonant (CVC). 민수 minsu finishes with ㅜ (vowel sound), so it needs a consonant such as ㄴ in 는 as shown above.

22 Asking someone their nationality Track 11 Dialogue 토니 Tony: 수지 Susie: 수지 Susie: 토니 Tony: 수지 Susie: 토니 Tony: 어느나라사람이에요? Which country are you from? ( 나는 ) 한국사람이에요. I am Korean. ( 토니는 ) 호주사람이에요? Tony, are you Australian? 아니요, 중국사람이에요. No, I am Chinese. 아, 그래요? Ah, are you? 네, 그래요. Yes, I am. Note: Brackets ( ) around words in a dialogue show that those words can be omitted. Say 네 ne for Yes, 아니요 aniyo for No Explanation 나 na is equivalent to I, me, and myself in English. 너 neo is equivalent to you in English. In Korean, 너 is not used much because it can be omitted if the topic is obvious from the context, especially in spoken language. To tell someone what nationality you are, you can put 사람 saram after the name of a country. For example, if you are an Australian, you say 호주사람 hoju saram. Did you know? To tell someone what nationality you are, you can put 인 in after the name of the country instead of 사람 saram. For example, 한국인 hanguk-in instead of 한국사람 hanguk-saram. 한국인 is a Sino-Korean word, which means vocabulary of Chinese origin. In this unit, 한국사람, which is a native Korean word, is used. State of New South Wales, Department of Education and Communities, /27

Sentence pattern 네, + Person s name + 은 + Country name + 사람 + 이에요. or 아니요, or Person s name + 는 Did you know? If you want to show you are listening actively, just say 그래요?

One word covers many things. It is convenient and easy. 그래요? State of New South Wales, Department of Education and Communities, /27
