    사과 없어요? [sa-gwa i-sseo-yo]
    ^That was in the PDF, but isn’t it wrong? D:
    Sorry, it was just confusing me, and well I don’t want it confusing others if it really is wrong <_<

    • jinseokjin says: December 13, 2011

      Oh, I am sorry for the inconvenience. Let me adjust it right away.

    • Henry says: January 17, 2012

      네 맞아요! “없어요” is “eop seo yo”

      You’re right! It’s actualy “eop seo yo”. The TTMIK team has a lot of work to do and keep up with so that’s probably why they occasionally have some typos in their PDFs.

      Thanks for pointing it out :D

    안녕하세요, 
    can i ask some thing, if like this “when can you give me my books”
    how in korean??? hehe thanks ^_^

    • jinseokjin says: January 27, 2012

      You can say “제 책 언제 주실 거예요?”. :)

      Thanks for your comment.

    ohhh annyeonghaseyo!!!! ^^
    i have a question ( jeo munje isseoyo!)
    this sentences is right or not?? ^^ and other sentences is
    omma uyu chuseiyo!!
    thanks!!!!!
    감사합니다!! ^^

    • jinseokjin says: January 30, 2012

      omma uyu chuseiyo!!

      If I write it in Korean, it will be “엄마 우유 주세요”.

      yeah, the sentence is correct! :)

  4. Soumi says: January 30, 2012

    A little help!

    if somebody asks 돈 주세요, would 돈은 있어요 mean that “I may have money, but I’m not going to give it to you?”

    and also: would 돈은 없어요 mean that “I may have other things, but I don’t have MONEY for you?”

    • jinseokjin says: January 30, 2012

      The sentence 돈은 있어요 can not include the meaning of “I am not going to give it to you”. hehe

      Well, your latter explanation makes sense.

    • Mariana Freitas says: March 9, 2012

      In this case, would “돈은 있어요” mean something like “Well, I’ve got tons of it, you know…!” ?
      I mean like, ”I might not have other things, but money, money I have” ? Could this be taken like bragging from the speaker?

      정말 감사합니다! :D

    • jinseokjin says: March 22, 2012

      The sentence “돈은 있어요” has the nuances that “I have some money.” or “I may not have nothing but some money”.

      Well, it doesn’t sound bragging a lot but it can sound so according to the situation.

      Example:

      A: 너는 잘 생기지도 않고, 키도 작은데, 어떻게 그 여자를 사귈 수 있었어?
      B: 난 돈은 있었거든. 하하하하.

  5. nermin says: February 7, 2012

    can we use juseyo as a question?? like: don juseyo? (can u give me money please?)

    • jinseokjin says: February 7, 2012

      Of course we also use “주세요” as a question. When we use it as a question, the end-tone goes up.

  6. me says: February 7, 2012

    wow like it^^

  7. Angela says: February 11, 2012

    감사합니다! This lesson was actually really easy :) I hope to learn the Korean language in no time! 안녕!

  8. Leif Latiff says: February 14, 2012

    돈 없어요! 돈 주세요!

  9. Clyde says: February 21, 2012

    재미 있어요

  10. TranscendGod says: February 22, 2012

    불 고 기 없 어 요. 불 고 기 주 세 요.

    저 는 불 고 기 좋 아 헤 요!

    • jinseokjin says: February 22, 2012

      >불고기 없어요. 불고기 주세요.
      >저는 불고기 좋아해요.

    Wow, I am so glad you covered this. TTMIK is such a useful resource for learning Korean, and I love how practical it is.

    I’ve studied a little Korean before through other sites, but it was not efficient and I couldn’t use it daily life. Learning simple things like 주세요 really does help, and I can use it at local Korean restaurants and with friends. I am so glad to finally learn such things.

    진짜 재미있어요!

  12. Doug M says: February 24, 2012

    Hello,

    I wanted to say how wonderful and helpful your site is. I spent some time learning Korean from other sites previously, but I didn’t find them very efficient. In only 12 lessons, I finally learned how to ask for something (주새요) which is so practical. Your efforts to bring Korean to a wider audience are greatly appreciated.

    진짜 재미있어요! 감사합니다!

  13. Sambath says: March 10, 2012

    this website is very good
    I like it so much.

  14. Angela Scorcia says: March 11, 2012

    주스 주새요. It sounds funny

  15. Alee says: March 19, 2012

    For example, if I’m in a restaurant, can I say
    - i-geot ju-se-yo
    pointing what I want in the menu? (like meaning: Please give me this) ??

  16. Nurin says: April 20, 2012

    what is glove in korean ?.. I’m little bit confuse but i will try to understand it next time if (si-gan i-sseo-yo)

    • jinseokjin says: April 21, 2012

      Well, we normally call glove as “장갑 [jang-gab]” but concerning the glove used in baseball, we call it as “글러브[geul-leo-beu]“.

  17. yuuuuum says: April 27, 2012

    I wanted to say how wonderful and helpful your site is. [2]

    I love love love you ALL. <3

    I love korean accent. soooooooo sweeet ^___^

  18. Ryan McAllister says: May 12, 2012

    In preparation for moving to Seoul and eating in a restaurant, I have been wondering how I would ask a receptionist at a restaurant to give me a table.

    For example, if i wanted a table for two people, would I say:

    둘명식탁 주새요.

    Or would I say something else?

    한국어를 잘 못 해서 죄송해요.
