• Starting today August 7th, 2024, in order to post in the Married Couples, Courting Couples, or Singles forums, you will not be allowed to post if you have your Marital status designated as private.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

안녕하세요! :wave: 저는 그 언어를 사용하는 사람들과 문화를 좋아해요.
Hello (polite)! I love the culture and the people who speak the language.

What programs or book is anyone using?

Hi; so are you from a Korean background yourself? and how do you get along with the complex politeness inflections?

Even Spanish has polite forms of address; but those in Korean are a lot of complex, I think.

I'm not actually. I grew in around Koreans and I work as a writer for a K-pop site, so I am pretty exposed to the language.
Not at all! The politeness factor is much easier to understand once you know someone's age. And haha Spanish is so hard for me to learn.

Oh, well! there's hope for me yet, the, in learning Korean; at first the politeness inflections seemed rather daunting.

PS: And to encourage you: Spanish is actually quite regular; once the patterns have been mastered, it is fairly straightforward. :)
