Korean Language

한국어

한글 (hangeul) which is the basic writing system of Korean


alphabet, was invented by Sejong, the Great who is one of the
best rulers in Korean history in 1443. Koreans used Chinese
characters for documentation, before Hangeul being invented.
Chinese characters represented different sounds from those of
the Korean language, which made it difficult and inconvenient
for Koreans to utilize them, and led Sejong, the Great to create
a whole new system of Hangeul.

“TWO TYPES OF SPEAKING KOREAN”

1.) Formal - it is used in official situation, very correct and


serious.
예) 안녕하세요 (annyeong haseyo) - Hello

2.) Informal - relaxed and friendly.


예) 안녕 (annyeong) - Hello

존댓말 (POLITE STYLE) - used in work place, public speech,


army, superiors and seniors.

반말 (NON-POLITE STYLE) - used among close friends, family


and people younger than you.
