I was wondering if someone could help me. I'm supposed to write my name in Korean for my Asian Writing Systems course, but I honestly have no idea how to go about doing that. (_ _) My name is Milja {pronounced somewhat like Meel-yah}. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

^
I'm guessing it'd be something like '밀야', but I'm not too sure.
so it's '밀랴' i suppose.

^i think that would be pronounced 'mirya'....so in order to make an 'l' sound need another 'r' before the 'ya' bit...HAHA i dont make sense but i cant type it on my comp!

anyway, when ppl say 'cho hee'....is it a respectful way of saying'me/my/i'??

'cho ket da' is sth like 'you will be good'...or sth like that yeah? im a bit confused abt the function of 'kes'.....and what would be the difference in pronunciation for that/death/give.....if that makes sense....

thanks as always!!

can someone please tell me what Eoddeohge means? thanks in advance!

this is actually not so easy. if you write 밀랴 as tvxq recommends, it'll sound like mil-lya. that's a little different from mil-ya.

if you write 밀야, it'll sound like mirya (r kinda sounds like a rolled r in spanish but not as long).

anyway, i guess i agree with tvxq. it's probably the closest, but it's not exactly the same.


저희 is not a respectful way of saying my, but it's a humbled way to say my. there's a difference between humbling yourself and raising another. that's where korean gets confusing. to show the most respect, you would humble yourself and raise the other in your speech.

좋겠다 = it's kind of hard to translate exaclty, but it's like that'd be nice. like if you said, my dad just bought me a ps3. a friend might 좋겠다. it kind of also usually has a hint of i wish i was in your position. it can also be used in a mean way when someone who already has a lot gets more stuff. so, if you were talking to a friend who doesn't even have a ps2 or an original ps1, and you say you got a ps3, they might say 좋겠다, too, but usually with a curse word shortly following.

좋겠다/죽음/주다. that's the difference in pronunciation.


uh.. i'm bad at translating romanization, especially when it doesn't follow one of the conventional romanizing systems, but i guess you mean 어떻게? this means how.

err..this may look wierd but can someone please help me translate this?

I have a question

When you write in Korean, you know how you leave a space?

Example: 알수 없잖아.

the space between 알수 and 없잖아

when do you write the spaces? cuz i tried to write in korean and they are all together

Can someone please romanize this Korean name?

http://i9.tinypic.com/4c0evf6.jpg

My friend wont tell me what it says XD

This is probably wrong, but the way I do it is separate the parts of speech and after particles/topic markers (i.e. ga, eun, neun, eul, reul, ui, han).

Using your example, there's always a space after "su."

I think that spaces aren't really necessary; they're just there to prevent slurring of words. If you know the context, it shouldn't be a bother.


It says "cha na el."

ohh thanks dr who but actually i was wondering what the difference in pronunciation would be if u used 'death' and 'give' with the '겠다' ending...because they both have the 'chu ket' sound.....or is that something that is not possible=S

oh and what does 'tong ryo' mean again? i forgot...

can someone please translate this for me. Its bit much but I cannot make out a single word of it beside G-Mail ^^; this is the response SM gave back to me about their global fanclub confirmation stuff.

thank you <3

it's really not different from english in principle. you separate words with spaces. korean also has participles and markers and stuff, so you leave those on the word it modifies. anyway, i'm not sure if that helps or not.

ex: 트윙키키미는 한국어를 잘 한다.

one correction with your example. technically, it's supposed to be 알 수 없잖아.


죽겠다 and 주겠다. assuming you can read 한글, the pronunciation difference should be evident.

i suck at figuring out romanized stuff, so i don't know what tong ryo means.

Sorry, already got what I needed translated.

could i get a translation for these two questions. i have a vague understanding, but i dont want to answer incorrectly.

오늘이 며칠이에요?

오늘이 무슨 요일이에요?

also could someone give me an example on how to reply back for the 2nd question. it would be more useful if the reply was written in korean. if not please place the words in the correct korean format. (subject -------verb)

thank you in advance. =]

Thank you so much, TVXQ<3, beckii and dr who! That helps a lot~! <3

do these sentences make sense? I have to use these verb forms..

(거나, 거나 하다)
수업에서 음식을 먹거나 큰 목소리로 말하거나 하지마세요
Do not eat or talk loudly in class


(두말할 것도 없다)
보아가 한국사람 두말할 것도 없어
it is obvious Boa is Korean

(다면서)
밤 12시가 넘어서도 20명 안팎의 손님들이 드나들고 있다면서 심야 손님들이 전체의 30-40% 가량을 차지한다고 밀했다.
this is the example from the book, but i was wondering if some one could make a simpler example using that form (which means "indicating that")

(다가는)
음식을 많이 먹다가는 뚱뚱해돼요
if you eat alot, you will become fat

(어/아 마땅하다)
이사람이 잘했기 때문에 상을 받아 마땅해요.
because this person did well, he deserves a prize

오늘이 며칠이에요?
What date is today?

오늘이 무슨 요일이에요?
What day is today?

(거나, 거나 하다)
수업중에 음식을 먹거나 큰 목소리로 말하지 마세요

먹거나 connects two things, the 2nd verb doesn't need 먹거나 again.


(두말할 것도 없다)
보아가 한국사람이란건 (or 인건) 두말할 것도 없어
it is obvious Boa is Korean

-이란건/인건 is needed to show the implied phrase "the fact that"

(다면서)
something like........
그녀는 방금 말한게 웃기다면서, 입을 크케 벌려서 웃었다.
Saying that what I said was really funny, she laughed out loudly with opening her mouth really big. LOL

(다가는)
음식을 많이 먹다가는 뚱뚱해져요
if you eat alot, you will become fat

-해지다/to become

(어/아 마땅하다)
이사람이 잘했기 때문에 상을 받아 마땅해요.
because this person did well, he deserves a prize

good-

thanks for the help!



are you sure about this one? the book uses examples where its attached to both verbs?

btw, do you use any of those forms above? we got some kyopyos in our class (actually most of the class is made up of them) and they say they rarely, if ever, use these forms in real life.

could i ask one final request for translations of these? ^^
-here it asks for your account and password, if you send it to them, they will obtain your info.

-this is a fake address, do not be fooled

-these idiots wrote their email address on a forum.

-solution: instead of @, write "at". This way, spam trackers cannot find your address

-In conclusion, becareful how you divulge your information and always strictly scrutinize everything that asks you for your information. As the internet continues to grow, so will the amount of spammers.

can sum1 change this into korean???

Mikie

thank you!!!

I'm assuming that's pronounced like 'Micky'.
It would be 믹키.

Can someone please translate this sentence out for me using hangeul? Thanks.


Even though Korea is guilty for plagiarism, it is not valid to say that we copy America or Japan when it comes to music and style. Plagiarism is plagiarism, and it happens everywhere, not just in Korea. Saying that plagiarism is influence is foolish because they are clearly not the same thing.

Thank you!

i've a question. i know when girls refer to elder guys, we'll add oppa behind their names. but what if i want to refer to group of elder guys? for example, super junior. i think it's wierd if we say super junior oppa.. is there another way of phrasing? if yes, can you type in korean? thanks.

It would be 오빠들 [oppa deul].

Can anyone translate this for me?



It's a female singer and the name of her song I think.. She performed on InkiGayo 061015 and MusicCore 061014, with a cute schoolgirl uniform ^^;

I wanna download this song but I need to know what it's called first lol xP

Thank you so much ! <3

^
malgwallyangi- baeseulgi


i'm not exactly sure of the meaning.

I think the translation is "Tomboy."

Ummm you have to be more specific with your question. You wana combine it, means hardsub it or just wana watch with a player.

1. If hardsub the srt files with your clip - pls see above ive just paste a link to a tutorial on hardsubbing files.

2. If just watching it....use Gom or BS player. Put your srt file and the movie file into a folder, both files must have the same name....only the extension are different as in goong.srt and goong.avi.

Hope this helps.

Yeah, that's right.

or you name the files exactly the same, ex: my girl 1 .srt and then my girl 1 .avi like that. and if you have the codec, it should pick up. i hope that helps.

Hey=D can any1 please help to translate this to english fer me

For those of you who are Koreans, just curious...what do your parents call each other? Mom to Dad / Dad to Mom. Do they call each other by names, call them "honey"/"husband"/"wife" or what?
thanks in advance.

either they call each other 당신 (tangshin) or 여보 (yeobo), they both means darling or sweetheart... oh my,
i'm starting to have goose bumps all over me...

hope this helps

When do you use -와/과 or -하고? Are they pretty much equivalent, or are they used in different situations?

yes they are pretty much the same and they are interchangeable...
you can also use -랑, but you have to take note that -랑 is commonly used during verbal conversations, 와/과 or 하고 is still more widely used when it comes to writing.

Thank you, EJ007.

hey no problem, always a pleasure

lol. Don't feel left out.

It's used a lot in Korea with teenagers.

I think it means "f***in"

But it's used more on the lines as "hella"

Hmm ... xD
