Alright class! This week we will work on strengthening the connection between Hangul characters and the sounds they represent. Material is here: https://www.howtostudykorean.com/unit0/unit0lesson1/

From what you all have show me already, I do not think I have much insight to add for this first lesson.

Over the course of the week I would like you to do the exercises in videos in the linked pages (4th paragraph). There are 6 of them and they add up to about 20 minutes.
I will schedule sever other assignments to be posted throughout the week.

Some vocabulary, just because
-----------------
네 -- Yeah, ok, yes
아니요 -- No
안녕하세요 -- 안녕 (health, well-being) + 하세요 (you do (polite imperative), please do, do you?) = Hello
감사합니다 -- 감사 (gratitude) + 합니다 (I do, I am doing) = Thank you
죄송합니다 -- 죄송 (apology, feeling sorry or ashamed) + 합니다 (I do, I am doing) = I'm sorry as in "I apologize," not as in "That sucks, I'm sorry"
산생님 -- Teacher (me)
이 -- This, as in "this one here." Think of the French suffix "-ci"
그 -- That, as in "that one by you." The generic "that." Think of the French "là."
지 -- That, as in "that one over there." Used to indicate something distant from both speaker and hearer. Think of the French "la-bas":

"""
...
— Eh ! qu’aimes-tu donc, extraordinaire étranger ?
— J’aime les nuages… les nuages qui passent… là-bas… là-bas… les merveilleux nuages!
"""
--L'étranger, Charles Baudelaire, 1869

무지개 -- Rainbow (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZSDXG6IMVA)
불꽃놀이 -- 불 (fire) + 꽃 (flower) + (놀이) play, game = fireworks (감시힙니다, 모모! https://kpop.social/@momo/110595763439246652)

For a little weekend assignment: Reply here with a word, written in Hangul and tell us something about it. It can be your favorite word, the last Korean word you learned, or just a word you want to talk about. Tell us what in means in English and tell us something interesting about. That can be something you find amusing or confusing about it, something that helps you remember the word, or anecdote about the word; anything you'd like to share about it.

You don't have to apologize for doing extra work. However for my own education, can you tell me what that second character in Momo's family name is? I have seen that consonant scribbled like that before but am not sure what it is. Is it "ㄹ"?

Also: good strategy picking a song I will be too busy bopping out to to check your work carefully!
