Korean Writing System
- February 13, 2008 - 1:39pm
I happen to like foreign things, primarily East Asian stuff. Anyway, as part of that I have a strange obsession with foreign character sets. Over this weekend, soroth and I were on youtube looking for some Korean language guides, and came across a bunch of _really_ _bad_ lesson videos. Ghetto acting and all.
Now, while those videos are nerdily-amusing, they are slow paced I was kind of in a rush to dive in. It's my preference to learn from someone who speaks the language natively, with English secondary, and not the other way around. So, after some work, I came across a series of 3 videos on youtube that honestly helped me learn Hangul in about 1.5 hours (30 minutes to understand, 60 minutes to memorize and play around).
So, for anyone interested:
Part 1: http://youtube.com/watch?v=Xq4S7M9rJbg
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzrCnQGLEP8
Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3r4eEo3wKM
Granted, I can't speak more than ten words of Korean, but the ability to read it is convenient in this case.
