MANNAM Korean Class - Using verbs;"치다", "타다", "하다"

Hello, Mannamers!!

I'm going to post up about Korean today! :)

I think some verbs in Korean are much confusing for you to use.

That's becuase there are some differences between English and Korean in using verbs.

(Of course, they are different!!  lol)

I mean those are hard to be translated, so you just need to remember them.

Here are some examples which can help you to learn.

"치다" means "to hit", but you can use many cases such as,

*테니스를 치다(play tennis)

*탁구를 치다(play table tennis)

*피아노를 치다(play the piano)

*타자를 치다(type)

*박수를 치다(clap)

"타다" means "to ride", but you can use many cases such as,

*스케이트를 타다(skate)

*스키를 타다(ski)

*자전거를 타다(ride a bike)

*택시를 타다(take a taxi)

*미끄럼틀 타다(go down the slide)

"하다" means "to do", but you can use many cases such as,

*축구를 하다(play soccer)

MANNAM Korean class: May 5, 2013

"Why is English so important to us?"

Sometimes my students ask the question to me.

Whenever I heard that question, I didn't know what was the proper answer. I just learned it because it was interesting to me.

So, I've thought why is learning foreign language so important.

Yesterday, I went to Korean Class in Wanju. A chinese student came to learn. Other students told me that he couldn't speak neither Korean nor English.

To make things worse, his company has no Chinese.

They've only communicated with body language everyday!!

Can you imagine how embarrassed they were?

That time, I realized that language is so valuable.

Through language, we share information, thoughts and express our feeling.

We can learn everything easy when we know the language.

Finally, I got the answer from this.

And I also realized that MANNAM has been doing really great job letting them know language to communicate one another.

Volunteering is not difficult.

Sharing something that we have.

Giving things without reward.

That is volunteering.

That is the reason why I'd like to volunteer with MANNAM.
