Thanks for studying with us ^O^!!!
TTMIK-team, thank you soo much for these amazing lessons. I moved to Korea one month ago, and my Korean has improved a lot since I started using your webside. I am very grateful. I expecially enjoy your natural talk lessons, since I’m very young.
Again thank you a ton
정말 감사합니다 ^_^
Same here! I’ve been here for only about a month, and my improvement is definitely largely due to this site. I’m young also, (Only 18 [International age]) and there really is no way for me to pay a monthly bill. I know the team here could be making more money if they charged for everything like other sites. So I seriously want to say thank you for your unselfish devotion to your work.
I’m here by myself, for at least a year, with no other Americans around me. So I’m sure you can imagine how much I need to learn. Haha!
But yeah, just wanted to say thanks.
….And by the way your Word and Sentence Builders are the bomb!
수고했어요!
I always saw these on face book of my korean freinds. But today I understood all..thanks TTMK….But i got only 58% in the test ;;;….

Eastward

I love this test
When I talk with my korean friend, he sometimes use this ;;; and I didn’t know what it means, but now finally I find out ㅎㅎ
Thank you my teachers!!!! ^^:D You’re the best!!
OO – 응
I got that wrong..T.T
Love this quiz!
92 our of 100 (11/12), that’s really good! I thought’s I’d get a little less.
Only made a mistake at Q8. about ㅇㅇ
OMG, I only have 33%, I must learn all the icon and use it.
I often see this emoticon: ~
Is this kind of waving?
Anyways, those quizzes are really helpful.
Thank you!
i don’t think it’s an emoticon~
it just gives a “not serious” feel to the message, like being carefree.
like…
우와~ so lazy today~
hahaha! i love this test! i got 67 score! i think it’s not too bad! hahahaha! thank you making this funny and interesting quiz.
yay!! 100 outta 100..
but i almost chose a wrong answer for the last question xD
Hi ^^ Thanks for the fun quiz..i failed thou..T.T anyway putting this aside, i have a question to ask..how do i say “pluck up one’s courage” in korean? is there a proverb for that phrase in korean too?
if so..how do i use it in a sentence?
Thank you so much!
Hey, I am sure you will get a good score later. Hm… the proverb doesn’t come up in my head now.
You may say “용기를 내다” for the phrase you wrote.
Let me make a sentence,
저는 용기를 내서 또 시험을 볼 거예요. (I will pluck up my courage and take the test again.)
I got 50/50. I remember the Korean emoticons being used by a former member of the korean girl group, After School
I got 11/12! XD I never came across ㄷㄷㄷ before. Why does it mean “OMG”?
Hehehe. Actually ㄷㄷㄷㄷ is shortend form of “덜 덜 덜 덜 (mimetic word of shaking or being nervous)”.
The symbol is only used in internet.
i got 75%,…… again XD hahahahaha
i got 11 out of 12…. ㅎㅎㅎ….
This was indeed an interesting quiz. Honestly I am not into emoticons other than the basics 1) happy face
or ^_^ sad face 
or *_*.
I am new to Korean and I noticed icons are used A LOT in 2NE1TV but I just ignore them. Anyway I failed this test because I guessed my way through. The most interesting one was this -.ᅦ………thanks for the emoticons explanations.
아주 재미있었어요, 근데 퀴스 전에 “^^a”와 “덜덜덜” 모르겠네. 지금 모두 다 외워 해야돼 ^0^
