Vocabulary learning is the single most important component of second-language acquisition. In cases where the second language is unrelated to the learner's native tongue, this task presents special challenges because there are typically few clues in a word's form to assist in learning and remembering its meaning. This book offers a solution to this problem for students of Korean.The Handbook is the first ever "root dictionary" of Korean designed for second-language learners. Useful for students at all levels, it contains more than 1,500 vocabulary lists consisting of words built from a shared root. These lists offer a unique and efficient way for students to acquire new words. Upon encountering a word, students can consult the lists for its component roots and discover many other semantically related words built from the same elements.An introduction provides an overview of Korean vocabulary and detailed instructions on how to use the word lists. A pronunciation guide outlines the major principles determining the pronunciation of compounds and other multipart words in Korean.

When I went to Korea and tried to use my limited vocabulary, no one understood me because my pronunciation was just so bad.Example: sam jang - sounded like the name Sam and 'jang' rhymed with 'sang'! It should have been more like 'sahm jaeng' with an almost long A sound.That's why I've developed a system that uses mnemonics to teach you the sounds of Hangul so you can easily remember the Korean alphabet.You'll also get a vocabulary list of useful words for each character, so you can more easily remember how to write and say them. The vocabulary is chosen based on the characters you have learned up to that point. So earlier characters will be repeated in the new vocabulary list along with each new character.Plus, I've included samples of typed and handwritten characters so you can see how they should look. Handwritten characters and typed characters can be quite different in any writing system. Knowing the order of the strokes and shapes will make it much simpler to recognize the characters when you see them in their more free-flowing handwritten form.Get your copy today and start learning Hangul in no time!
