Welcome to the very first lesson at TalkToMeInKorean.com! If you are an absolute beginner of the Korean language, start with this lesson and practice with us. Don’t worry if you do not know how to read and write in Korean yet. We will guide you through every step of learning Korean. In this lesson, you can learn how to say “Hello.” and “Thank you.” in Korean.
“Hello.” is “안녕하세요. [an-nyeong-ha-se-yo]” and “Thank you.” is “감사합니다. [gam-sa-hap-ni-da]” If you already know how to say these expressions, listen to the lesson to find out how to say them most naturally. If you can make a video of yourself saying these expressions, that would be FANTASTIC!
감사합니다!

Hola! I’m jeen and I’m from Mexiko, I’m very happy because I found this place I love corean and I really want to learn it. I’ll do my best.
Y a ti Hyunwoo Sun te admiro mucho por hacer todo esto, yo siempre he querido dar clases de español, pero nunca empezaba algun proyecto, pero tu eres ahora una fuente de inspiracion para mi.
Just found your site and podcasts. I’ve been 천천히 배우기 more words but am still struggling to put them together to form sentences. 나는 행복하다 that I’ve found another resources to help. Thanks. I’ve been coming to Seoul for business quite a bit recently and will be there again in a couple weeks. Are there tutors available to help me study during the evenings? /수호

경은양의 감미로운 목소리 처음 들으니까 넘 좋아여.. 방가 방가 ^^
난 한국어초보를 아니지만 앞으로두 잘 부탁하셈..
두분처럼 언어를 계속해서 열심히 배우고..
그 나라의 문화도 배우고 언어도 자연스럽게 표현할 수 있길 바래..
즐거운 주말를 보내셈… 감기 조심하셈…
연이
연이 씨 ^_^ 고마워요!!! : ) 연이 씨는 ㅋㅋ 한국어 초보 절대 아니죠. 완전 고수!! : ) 연이 씨도 주말 잘 보내요~~!!

연이님 들어줘서 감사합니다.
감미로운 목소리!! 라고 해주셔서 너무 기분 좋은데요. ㅎㅎㅎ
한국어 너무 잘하셔서~ ㅋㅋㅋ
연이님도 감기 조심하세용!! ^^
This is great! You sound so happy when doing this audio! I think it would be awesome if there was a place for us to upload our own sound files to help each other with pronunciation…but that means more work for you and I certainly don’t want that…just an idea. XD
Stephanie :) Thank you ^_^!!!!! That’s a great idea actually!! We’ll think about how to do that ^_^
여러분 안녕하세요!! ^^
이 웹사이트 정말 좋아해요. 감사합니다
I will always come here (how to say it in Korean?) “저는 늘 올게요”
I hope my Korean will better day by day, 화이팅!! ^^
감사합니다!! ^^
안녕하세요 :D
You can also say, 맨날 올게요 or 자주 올게요 ^^
khairshapiee :)
안녕하세요. 너무 반가워요.
You can say, ” 여기에 항상 올 거예요.” in Korean.
“Here” is 여기 in Korean.
“To come” is 오다 in Korean.
“always” is 항상 in Korean.
I’m sure your Korean will better soon!!
Have fun!!
Carlo 씨 말이 맞아요 ^_^ “맨날 올게요”라고 하면 돼요 :) 감사합니다!
