thank you for this, i have always been seeking this now this is more complete than any other site i've seen.

awesome! this was such a great idea to have a language section for those of us who want to learn korean, mandarin, and japanese. hopefully there is more languages to come.

lol i'm like tryin to pronouce it.kinda fun actually.
always wanted to learn korean =]

i've always wanted to know something. i know that oppa means older brother but i notice that some girls call their boyfriend oppa as well. am i misunderstanding what they are saying or can oppa be used as a nickname as well?

This is fun, learning new languages. They're hard and funny to pronounce. Thank you for this. We have to add more.

thank you for this hopefully soon enough i'll be able to understand more when i watch korean dramas
quick question, is there a difference when you call your grandmother from your mother's side vs. your father's side? or is it all the same?

Thanks for the list.

I've picked up a lot of these words from K-Dramas lol and now I have a reference.

how do u say 'siblings' in korean? you have it in korean letters, but why isn't it written in english?
