      Amazing! It is astonishing you can write Korean that fluently with learning a language totally different from your mother tongue only for a year '0'
      Here is a suggestion for minor corrections:
      공부한→공부한 지 You need '지' for a complete structure.
      언어 5개 알고 한국어는 제일 아름답거든요→언어 5개 아는데 한국어는 그 중에 제일 아름답거든요 Translation to English is: I speak 5 languages and the Korean language is most beautiful among them.
      일 년만 됐는데(도)=일 년밖에 안됐는데 You can choose the later expression when you want to stress it more and can also put '도' at the end of the former for the same purpose.
      스웨덴에게서→스웨덴에서
      '에게서' is used for a person (ex. 어머니에게서: from my mother) but '에서' can be used for a place (ex. 집에서: at home 스톡홀름에서: 'in' or 'from' Stockholm)
      '개' used as an adverb is a kind of slang. In my opinion, it is a good choice to use 개 to emphasize something or express your feeling when you talk with your peers or close friends but when you talk to the elderly or speak formally, it would apparently be a bad one. How about using 완전(completely) instead? It is, I think, having an almost same meaning or function with 개 and recognized as more neutral by usage.
      I'd like to express how I am impressed by your Korean writing skill again and appreciate your affection for the Korean language. Hope you have a lot of fun with learning this language! XD
      Alla till mig!

    I 'm Japanese. I had learned English when I was a student, but I was careless about pronunciation. I learned a little Korean as a hobby after I was an adult. Learning hangul patchum has made me aware of the difference between "m" and "n" and "ng". Because in Japanese, they are all written "ん" , and we are not aware of the difference between those sounds.

      As a native Korean, I was surprised that Japanese do not distinguish m/n/ng as final consonants, while still distinguish d/t and g/k as first consonants. We are exartly the opposite; we regard those pairs as almost the same. It is interesting that pheonetic properties differ by languages.

      So, I think old Japanese didn't distinguish k/g and t/d. In the Japanese modern Kana use, all m/n/ng write "ん" and don’t distinguish them, but the historical kana use seems to have distinguished a lot more sounds and expressed them.

    I'm pretty terrible at learning languages, but the Korean writing system took even me just 2 or 3 days to master. It was designed to be easy to learn, and even for us slow learners, it still is! Of course, being able to read and write words doesn't mean I know what those words mean. Unlike the writing system, Korean vocabulary is insanely difficult and I barely made any progress before I lost my incentive to want to keep going with it. Ah well, the writing system still sticks with me even so, it was so easy to learn and remember!

      You might wanna learn 한자, not the Chinese letters but the meanings of them. They are used in related words and words with somewhat similar meanings. E.g. 학교 school, 문학 literature, or 문학 and 문자 (character). When you learn them it's easier to learn more and more words.

      It was the Korean dynasty that hid Hangul from the people in the past. It was the Japanese who found it and clarified it and became the savior of the Korean people.
      It was done by the Korean Governor-General's Office under the direction of Hirofumi Ito. At that time, there were 8 languages, and written and spoken languages were different like in Japan, and the literacy rate was devastatingly low because it was only Chinese, so we excavated Hangul, which was made and buried in the Middle Ages, made sentences mixed with kanji and Hangul, and created schools all over the country, and Japanese and We taught together. Japanese Chinese was also imported in large quantities at that time, and it is inevitable that the grammar was similar to Japanese. We do not teach the history of mass murders of our own people after the war, but fight and win from Japan's colonial rule, and teach that we are a victorious country. Speaking of Chinese thought, Korea is a small Chinese country, and Japan is a lower existence, and Korea is not supposed to be taught, even if I know in one corner of my head, I think that it can't be true, so I'll talk about katakana from Hangul and ignoring the time series. . Before the introduction of ancient kanji in Japan, there were many types of Jindai characters in various places, but Hangul is very similar to Jindai characters in Tsushima. The mission of a radio operator sent by King Sejong to Japan is to elucidate the technology of the waterwheel, but he was surprised by the spread of currency and the high literacy rate of the common people against the barter Korea, and tried to make characters like hiragana katakana like Japan, but on the way I tried to introduce the Shindai characters of Tsushima as it was, but it was not used and even its existence was forgotten until Japan excavated. It is said that Nara came from Urinara by conveying technology to Japan from Chinese thought, and I can't stand that I learned it from Japan. Japan's currency began to spread to the general public around the 7th century, and it was fully established around the 10th century. Although South Korea had a currency itself, it was not until Japan annexed that it generally spread through barter. WON is originally a circle just like Japan. Rice cultivation in Japan is older in DNA, and rice grown in the cold of Korea is not in the Middle Ages. Chili peppers were also spread in Korea by the Hideyoshi army to beat the cold, and before that, there was no kimchi like now. Karate, judo, kendo, and tea ceremony were introduced from Japan at the time of annexation, but it is said that they were transmitted to Japan. I can't stand everything from Japan. In general, there is no big sword like Japan, and there can be no kendo even though it hung a slender sword rather than a side, but it created the word of a fighter such as Saurabi, and the original meaning of samurai is also wrong. Karate is a martial art to protect the king of the Ryukyu Kingdom, judo is a safe way to fight against opponents with weapons, and tea ceremony is a tea ceremony that adds Western tea party elements and sublimates them. At that time, Ming and Qing were called Tangkara, and at the same time, foreign things were called Karakara, and they also call their own country Karakuni and try to misunderstand them.

      It's common sense in history education in Japan lol In Korea, we fabricate the history of Hangul and educate the Korean people in order to improve patriotism and to give advantage of anti-Japanese parties.
      Sejong robbed the Korean people of Hangul. There is no doubt that it was Hirobumi Ito who educated Korean citizens in Hangul again because their literacy rate was low and they could not communicate properly.
      However, the insane Korean government, which was not allowed by pride, fabricated it and propagand a ridiculous propaganda that Hirobumi Ito forcibly stole language from Koreans.

    As someone who speaks mediocre Japanese, I am amazed how this Language manages to sound so different but at closer inspection seems SO close. The grammar is almost exactly the same, at least in fundamental concepts. But even words which, when nested in sentences sound totally different are in fact CLEARLY related. "Student" is "hag-saeng" in Japanese "gaku sei" etc.

    And I think someone already mentioned in the comments, but there were some errors in the transcript. “되어졌다” is grammatically wrong expression. It doesn’t exist. So it should be changed to “되었다.”

    Dude, I have lived in Korea for 17 years and have been learning the language piece by piece over that time, and this is an excellent explanation for anyone new to it. You really break it down in a brilliant way. This should be required viewing for everyone who moves here.

    Thank you for great video Paul! Your channel is awesome.
    Formal non-polite is used almost always in written language. If someone speaks in formal non-polite it will sound like a robot speaking human language. (Actually that's how we translated lines of terminator in the movie)

      Formal non-polite is also used when speaking to oneself like when you realize something. 아, 맞다... 아, 있다!

      But I think Koreans say things like 덥다 or 예쁘다 in daily speech too?

      Help me understand the difference between "formal" and "polite." As an English speaker, these things are basically the same to me: psychological distance.

    This is the most accurate depiction of Korean History and language on the web I've ever seen. Every explanation had some big faults except this one. To add, not all the -하다(hada) attached words are Chinese origin. 일하다(to work) is not Chinese. 하다(hada) means 'to do'.

    To clarify, it's widely believed in South Korea that the words cames from Silla and the grammar came from Goguryeo.
    Adding more recent study, a wooden scripture found in Mi-reuk-sa (it's part of the UNESCO Baekje Historic Area), which was written by Baekjae, turns out to be extremely close to the language used in Silla and modern Korean. Since an old Chinese scripture (梁書) written in A.D. 500s says the language used in both Goguryeo and Baekje are equal and they do not need translators. (it further says things like how they share cultures and clothes too). We could say the language of Baekje influenced Japanese since in ancient Baekje, 7 was 'na-neun', which is also pronounced 'na-na' in Japanese. However, ancient Japanese scriptures separated the language of Baekje as a Han (=韓/Korean) language and had a separate translator. Hence while it is very likely that the 3 nations had similar languages, Baekje probably didn't have significant influence over Japanese as we might have previously thought.
    Baekje used to call themselves Nam-Buyeo (South Buyeo) which proves that they had significant connection to Goguryeo and Buyeo. Recent study has basically found that the Goguryeo's language shared similarity in both words and sentence structure as modern Korean as well. It's from analysing the stone statue of Gwang-gye-toh the Great.
    So while ancient Korean can be categorised by the Silla and Buyeo, there is another clue that suggests the 3 languages might have been extremely similar. In the early days of Joseon Dynasty (year 1433, reign of Sejong the Great, written in his 15th year in reign) The Annals of the Joseon (Choson) Dynasty has a record of early Joseonese scholars asking Sejong to collect and preserve ancient songs sung by the 3 ancient nations. It isn't definitive but it offers a clue that in the early days of Joseon Dyansty, scholars had ability to separate and understand the 3 ancient languages. And for them to suggest to collect those songs, it would have meant that they knew the 3 languages were similar because on the article, the scholars mention that there aren't any laws to collect and preserve "our ethnic songs".
    Therefor the 3 ancient languages must have been very similar. It also suggests that the 3 different languages were still preserved even after 474 years of Goryo's rulling of the peninsula as a single nation.
    The article written in the Annal says Sejong accepted the suggestion from his subordinates and managed to collect 50+ songs, originated from 3 ancient nations. However, the collection is now lost. If we can somehow find it, it will offer a direct clue to find how the 3 ancient languages were related.
    All in all, even in South Korea, it is believe that the modern Korean is a complete mixture of the languages of Silla and Goguryeo.

      Here is the article from the Annals of Joseon Dyansty if you are interested. Sorry it's in Korean but if I translate it, it says,
      The Ministry of Culture and Education suggested, "vocal songs are intertwined with the politics of the era. The (approximately) 50 songs stored in the Department of Culture are all from Silla, Baekje and Goguryo and while some of them have lyrics that we cannot offer to people, they can be used to infer the life back then. Since the birth of Joseon, we had a good record of the Court (as palace) and appraisal musics (as to cocommemorate someone), however, there aren't any laws to collect and preserve cultural musics (in here it means those sung by the common people) which does not make sense. Regardless of the nature of the lyrics, even if some of them are about love or hatred which goes against our current culture (which here specifically means confucianism) it is only right to order each provinces to collect all the songs, send them up to the central government and let the Department of Culture preserve them."

      @@Galm_1 That's so interesting. I'm not surprised by the Buyeo-Goguryeo-Bakeje lineage because history confirms their relationship. Baekje even had a capital called Buyeo. Whether it was named after the ancient kingdom of Buyeo or the language, it is obvious how close it is.
