The FIRST Thing to Learn When Studying Korean | Korean Interviews

- I asked Koreans what they thought was the first (and most important) thing to learn when studying Korean. The specific question I asked them was, “한국어를 공부하는 사람이 어떤 걸 제일 먼저 공부하는 게 좋을까요?” As a follow-up question, I also asked what the most effective way of studying that would be (“그걸 어떻게 공부하는 게 가장 도움이 될까요?”). What do you think Korean learners should learn first, before anything else? And how should they learn it? Let me know in the comments!

First step is to realise how overwhelming it is and have a mental breakdown, if you can get past that you're good to go.
Yep lol
Truth
Haha you really made man laugh 😂
I feel this so hard right now
Exactly... at this very moment I am just having the mental breakdown 😆
2:56 your doppelganger was like "woah"🤣😂
Oh my they dressed exactly alike
02:05 I wanna ask him where to buy Billy costume. 🤣
I had a pretty set idea on how I wanted to start so first I trained my ears in hearing words in speech (because a new language just sounds like sounds first) by listening to it until I heard words, then I learned Hangul to learn to hear each letter/character/syllable, then I learned sentence structure to know what I'm listening for and then I started to add some vocab but quite slowly to train my ears like a baby would, and then I just absorb whatever I encounter pretty much as well as I can even in surprising places like gag consert. :) I try to "consume" both speech, books, apps and reading to try to advance evenly.
2:05 Is that Billy's brother from another mother in the background? The guy has the same shirt and hat on too.
OMG I never even noticed that guy until now.
Hahahaha wtf
He got spooked
Frank M omgggg
I think even the guy was shocked 😂
For any language you are learning, I would recommend starting with the word order and learn the following phrases extremely well: I want, I need, I have, I like, I miss, I love and learn their negative forms. Add nouns/objects to that, then learn to use the pronouns to those: You, They, Our, and extend that out with the same phrases. Once you get very good at that, I would add location to the mix with the same phrases: Here, there, up, down, around. Next include in that some flare to the mix: As for me, Also, Sometimes, And, Or, Etc. Therefore. I think those are the most important beginner things needed to be perfect ASAP to get started.

2:04 Korean billy!?
OMGG
He has to be one of two things: 1; A clone. 2; Billy as a time traveler.
Zaybex HAHAHAHAHAHAHHA OMGGGG TRUEEE
First step: learning hangeul
Second step: learn sentence word order
3rd step: learn how to conjugate verbs (very basic such as past, present, future)
4th step: learn the common speech levels (casual/polite/formal)
After these steps just going on to learn vocabulary and grammar imo
I use your interviews as source for new vocubulary. With the subtitles on your videos I can be sure the translation makes sense. Thank you and please never stop with these :)
I think the first thing is to become familiar to how the language sounds, and learn the alphabet for the language you are studying. You really can't learn the correct way to speak, read or write, without knowing the alphabet and becoming at least familiar with pronunciation.
I think learning Hangul first and then moving to grammar then after that moving to conversation and slang
I studied Billy's first 2 books and practiced making sentences with a friend of mine in the USA then came here and found nobody talks that way :-( Everything is slang, dialect and incomplete sentences! But for getting around I found that first thing to learn is the numbers and how to ask the price of things, then how to ask for a discount! They like to haggle, and also overcharge foreigners, hahaha! Second would be directions, as in 화장실이 어디예요? Then just get by with body language as I learn more colloquial 한국어. But 한글 is so easy to learn start with that. It's amazing how many Korean words are just transliterated English words, especially on signs and advertisements.
2:05 *He's you for halloween* ;D
2.04 in the background is the version of you from a different dimension, that the version of you that was actually born Korean but became a famous english teacher on youtube, Learn English with GO, Park Billy.
I actually love the interviews
1. 한글
-- used concurrently with basic salutations and correct enunciation
2. adding basic noun/verbs to your vocab
--now that we know 집,가다,어디,왜 we can start building SOV sentences
3. Conjugation of verbs
-- present, past, future, progressive, 니다/요
4. Nomilization
--now we can expand our sentences with added nouns
5. Verbs to Adjectives
-- both descriptive and action verbs
6. Start making complex sentences
-- using phrase/sentence connectors

OMFG 2:05!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's like a find Wally page
The first thing I learnt when I studied Japanese was hiragana. Romaji is silly because it's not really used. When studying Korean I think learning Hangul is best so that you can read everything how Koreans do. It's probably easier in Korean since there's mostly just Hangul, reading Japanese is a lot more complicated, then basic words, phrases and grammar. Listening is important too.
As somebody that was a bigginer like that earlier this year.
하다
이다
Verbs and simple nouns like
하교
집
And basic sentence structures
When she started about BTS I’m I’m just 🤭🤣💜
Ikr 😂 they said that to learn korean, watch kdramas and listen to kpop but for a lot of ppl it's like we got into learning korean because we love kpop and kdramas 😅😂
I searched a lot about learning 한국어 and they always say to learn the alphabet. Then I proceeded the vocabulary but got tired of it so I proceeded grammar. Honestly I find it that grammar is better than vocabulary since you can pick up easily when you learn grammar.
I definitely think learning about the place and the culture comes first. Because how will know if that language interest you if you know nothing about where it comes from.
I think you need to be able to say exactly why you want to learn Korean and realistically it needs to be a pretty strong reason. Because learning Korean is a lot like a marriage. Learning the alphabet is the wedding where everything is exciting and easy and fun. Actually learning the language needs to be an every day passion where at all times it is worth it to you to do the work. My original reason was to understand a BTS Vlive stream. It wasn’t a very powerful reason BUT I absolutely fell in love with Hangul. It is the most glorious puzzle that I know I can solve because it has a very set design. How do I stay committed to learning? The same way I stay married. I do the work AND keep it fun and interesting.😊
1. Learn hangul
2. Learn basic words and phrases ie. Hello, goodbye, how are you, numbers, etc
3. Basic grammar
4. Expand with vocab
Dramas to learn spoken speech (my first goal). Even if it is controversial, I think using english subtitles gives you comprehensible input and helps get you started, and at the same time learning vocabulary and basic grammar. Even a not gifted person like me picked up enough that beginner grammar that felt too hard when I started became really easy and obvious 6 months later when I tried again (and most grammar as well, not only beginner). At the same time you learn basic customs, family interactions, cultural facts, levels of speech...
Wow youre really working hard. 화이팅!! And youre so good in Korean.
I learned the alphabet first and how to pronouce them (but still i need pratike some more of the alphabet) i can red some korean words and pronouce some words
어떤 방법을 찾는것도 중요하지만 꾸준히 자기 패이스를 유지하면서 지속성 있게 하느냐가 중요한 것 같음.
I think the first thing to learn is knowing how to use the dictionary and to do that, you must learn the 요 form. You can't escalate your learning if you don't learn how to learn
i recommend watching variety shows, korean youtubers especially ones with captions (in hangul) to learn more natural/modern words/terms :+)
You should've put "Subscribe to Billy Korean on RUclips" as "translation" of one of the questioned people.
Prolly the most helpful thing that I've learned was the honorifics. Most beginners tend to use 반말 because of kdramas and they're unaware that there are certain ways to talk to every age group.
ampalaya _ they’ve not listened to enough types of dramas then because that is where I have learnt the different levels of speech.
Its really hard if you have no one to communicate with the language.
초보자들이 한글 공부하면서 참고하기 꽤 유용해 보이는데 생각보다 조회수가 높지 않네
빌리 홧팅
Wow! Im surprised how little they suggested learning the alphabet system first
By just reading some stories, books, news or articles EVERYDAY without understanding them can improve my korean? Btw I'm studying vocabs and sentences now thanks to you billy!
It can improve some parts of your Korean, sure, but you'll need to combine that with regular studying so you can improve faster.
Is it just me or does everyone look super tall
For some of them, the ground wasn't even. But I remember some of the people I interviewed were also just tall. I'm 5 ft 7.
@@GoBillyKorean I'm not sure i understand what your tryna say
Grammar. And politeness levels
Hi!
First you should get used to the listening how korean people talk maybe watching dramas or just tv in general. Then learn the alphabet and basic words and focus more in vocabulary than grammar at least I find that I have less trouble with korean grammar that when I first started learning English or even my native language Spanish.
Hi me back
Street interview with same people then and again ....i think first should know gangul letter and garmmar point..!
Does your book cost $27 on ebay??
You can likely get it cheaper directly from Amazon in print form, or on BookDepository in other countries.
Great video, Billy!
I think all of their recommendations are really good
Thanks for your video
Showing off those emotes :-D
