Day 3 : Popcorn Is Awesome

I really love popcorn. I can say I made today lesson only for popcorn. I really had to teach how to say popcorn in Korean. It’s popcon lol. Actually you don’t need to learn that lol but well, I love popcorn. Anyway! Maybe you will figure out some words you can just speak in English when you don’t remember them in Korean.

시리얼바
[Cerealba]

Some stuffs have several names in Korean. Especially it’s from a foreign language. 곡물 means cereal or grain.

시리얼바를 우유에 담그면 그냥 시리얼이 되나?
would it be like normal cereal if I put this cereal bar in milk?

팝콘
[popcon]

Korean language has many words from foreign languages. Juice, Coffee, Cerealbar, now this. Try to speak English for words you don’t remember. it might help a lot.

영화관에서 팝콘을 먹지 않는 것은 신성모독이다.
to not eat popcorn at cinema is a blasphemy
vending machine img
자판기
[ja pan gi]

Normally you can find it in subway stations but it’s not easy to find a vending machine for snacks here because Koreans have convenient stores everywhere even on the platform in stations. Literally everywhere. if you can’t find a convenient store in 5 mins? then we say ‘what kind of town doesn’t have one single convenient store?’

자판기는 맛있는게 없어요.
That vending machine has no good stuffs.

[ib]

Well… Mouth is mouth lol. I want to explain more than that for this word but I can’t.

눈은 두갠데… 은 하나야…
I have two eyes… but one mouth
dentist img
치과 의사
[chi gwa ui sa]

Do you like sweets? then maybe you should know the word ‘dentist’ lol. Korean doesn’t go to one doctor, they just go to any hospital. so Korean doesn’t say ‘go to a doctor’ or ‘go to see a doctor’, they say ‘go to a hospital’ (go to a 치과)
치 : dental / 과 : department / 의사 : doctor

치과 무서워요
Dentist is scary

This Course Was $15

$15, maybe it’s nothing that you can earn after a couple of hours of labor. Or, maybe you have to work for full days to earn it only because of where you were born. And $15, It’s the average price of Korean textbooks. Life is unfair. But that’s why we can help each other, we are helping each other.

This Is Why I Published My Textbook For Free

I didn’t make it possible alone. A lot of people helped me and encouraged me and, of course, support me. I really appreciate my supporters, Team Junicorns. If my tutorials are helpful or if you want to share the same dream, join the Team Junicorns and support me to keep going.
