How is the title pronounced?

Hangoka.

What does it mean?

Korea.

In his thread, I shall post Phrases that could be useful such as greetings. I will also post the romanazation and the basic grammar rules.

Here is some things on the pronounciation,

There is no i as in is. All I's in romanazation are like ee as in mean or green.

There is two A sounds that is in the basics of the alphabet(40 characters).
In romanazation, Ah as in Aha! and aw as in yacht.

The E has one that you should be aware of for now. Eh as in hen.

There is one O sound. Oh, as in Oh!.

There are 2 U sounds. One is romanized as oo and the other as u. You can work out the pronounciations.

Some Hangul characters have 2 pronounciations. For example, the K sound can also be a G sound. These are the ones with 2 sounds

K sound and G sound
P sound and B sound
T sound and D sound
Ch sound and J sound.
S sound and Sh sound. (Only when next to the character that makes the ee sound).

Now, I don't have the korean Keyboard, but I'll use a translator for now.

Let's start with the basics.

안녕 means hi, Pronounced Annyawng.

안녕하세요? means Hello, How are you? only if you ask first. If used as an answer, then it means Hello, I'm doing fine, Pronounced as Annyawng Haseyo.

I can't pull up the Hangul format, but another way of saying how are you? would be Chal Chinaysawyo. We havn't gone over the A as in how you say the letter A, but just know that that's how it's pronounced.

I can't pull up the right characters for this, but Chooseyo means please give me. Korean grammar requires for it to make sense, that verbs always go at the end of the sentence, but for being polite, you add a -yo to the end. So let's take the word for milk, ooyoo. Ooyoo chooseyo would mean please give me milk.

I can't pull up the right characters right now, but Awdee Kawyo, means Where are you going?. This is an independant clause, so no need to add anything. It's just said as it is.

Before I continue, you might notice that the letters go on top of each other. The Korean Language stacks it's letters, but has certain rules. I will write and scan to show you how it's written.

As of now, I will be taking questions on the what I've put out so far.

Edit: Corrected Mistakes and working on it.

I cannot continue to work on this today, but I'll edit to continue tommorow. :tongue:

Remember, I can't put up any characters until I get the IME.

Chiguhm means now.

Na means Me, or I. It can be added onto. Such as Na-do. It means me too.

안녕하세요?

Sorry can't say much more at the moment(and copied this from your tutorial in the first post^^;).
I don't speak Korean, but I'd love to speak as many lanaguages as possible^^

Any chance you will put up more phrases and words?

Sure! I just have to make a period of time about 1 hour long, but I haven't been able to do that, since I have to do something every.

Anyong Haseyo! Chal Chinaesayo?

I only recognize Hirigana in Japanese. I can't speak it. I'm fluent in Korean.
