❝what exactly are you here for?❞
❝to see with eyes unclouded by hate.❞
i recently had the pleasure of seeing my first studio ghibli movie: princess mononoke! the art style was so beautiful and i loved the message that there is not always a clear villain or hero— more than one cause can be just 🐺 (featuring a gorgeous san/ashitaka illustration by @sorscia)

Is ㄹ pronounced as L or R?
This is probably one of the most common questions that beginners ask when learning 한글. Just like every beginner learners, I went through this as well which is why I decided to study pronunciation rules too. I created this post to help clear up any confusion.
When ㄹ is located at the beginning of a word, it sounds more like an R.
Example: 라디오 (ra-di-o), 레슨 (re-seun), 로맨틱 (ro-man-tik)
When ㄹ is located between two vowels, it sounds like an R.
Example: 다리 (da-ri), 사랑 (sa-rang), 어렵다 (eo-ryeob-dda), 모르다 (mo-reu-da), 노력 (no-ryeok), 매력 (mae-ryeok)
When ㄹ is located at the end of a word, it’s pronounced more like an L.
Example: 딸 (ddal), 아들 (a-deul), 월 (weol), 달 (dal), 칼 (khal), 연필 (yeon-pil), 교실 (gyo-sil)
When ㄹ is followed by a consonant or followed by another ㄹ, it sounds like L.
Example: 딸기 (ddal-gi), 힘들다 (him-deul-da), 몰라 (mol-la), 살자 (sal-ja), 고릴라 (go-ril-la)
When ㄹ comes after any consonant except ㄴ, ㄹ is pronounced as N.
Example: 생리 (saeng-ni), 국립 (gung-nip), 능력 (neung-nyeok)
When ㄹ comes before or after an ㄴ, both ㄹ and ㄴ are pronounced as ㄹ.
Example: 한류 (hal-lyu), 신라 (sil-la), 신랑 (sil-lang), 달나라 (dal-la-ra)
Disclaimer: Hope this helps but remember not to rely too much on romanizations and listen to the sounds properly as well.
This is a post that I shared on Amino app and I decided to post it here as well.

Okay so, another app I wanna ask people about! It’s called Kawaii and is a Japanese learning app.
As far as I saw, it does so by a story in which you are a transfer student and you meet two people who will help you.
The classroom is for Japanese lessons, in the arcade you can play games for vocabulary etc. and you can collect stamps for achievements.
The lessons for Hiragana & Katakana seem to be free, however, Kanji etc. you have to unlock by purchasing “books” for your lessons, but it seems you can get necessary coins by watching videos too?
Anyway, I think the story approach is cute even tho I haven’t seen much yet. I will try do go through Hiragana & Katakana and see if finished lessons unlock anything and how the story progresses! It seems to have something to do with a fox…
If you have any experience with this app, feel free to share!

BASIC KOREAN SENTENCE STRUCTURE
♡ in korean, it is important to use the correct sentence structure, or your sentences may seem really confusing :
-> in english : Subject Verb Object
-> in korean : Subject Object Verb
now, let’s look at some examples!
we are gonna use this simple sentence :
“i bought a book”,
in korean it would be :
“i a book bought”
저는 책을 샀어요
책 = book
샀어요(past tense) from the verb 사다 = to buy
it’s really different, right?
⚠
the object ALWAYS comes BEFORE the verb, and the verb is ALWAYS at the END of the sentence.
⚠
♡ locations are also used BEFORE verbs :
“저는 학교에 가요” i go to school
학교 = school
에= location particle (to)
가요 (present tense) from the verb 가다 = to go
“저는 학교에서 공부해요” i study at school
학교 = school
에서 = location particle (at)
공부해요 (present tense) from the verb 공부하다 = to study
“저는 집에 잤어요” i slept at home
집 = home
에 = location particle (at)
잤어요 (past tense) from the verb 자다 = to sleep
⚠ you can put the time before or after the subject though :
both of these sentences mean “today I will eat at home” :
before -> 오늘 저는 집에서 먹을 거예요
after -> 저는 오늘 집에서 먹을 거예요
오늘 = today
집 = home
에서 = location particle (at)
먹을 거예요 (future tense) from the verb 먹다 = to verb
“tomorrow, i will study at school”
before -> 내일 저는 학교에서 공부할 거예요
after -> 저는 내일 학교에서 공부할 거예요
내일 = tomorrow
학교 = school
에서 = location particle (at)
공부하다 = to study
~ㄹ 거예요 (future tense)
♡ adverbs are added before verbs :
저는 열심히 공부해요
I study hard
열심히 = hard
and finally, adjectives work the same way as they do in english! just put them before the noun they describe :
매운 라면 = spicy ramen
매운 = spicy
라면 = ramen
예쁜 여자 = beautiful woman
예쁜 = beautiful
여자 = woman
