Book Details
Korean is the native language of 67 million people living on the Korean peninsula, and is spoken by an additional 5.6 million as a heritage language. Comprised of seven geographically-based dialects, Korean maintains a strong mutual intelligibility due to widespread media and standardised instruction in schools. This helpful guide is designed to be a "go-to" resource that fits in your back pocket. Perfect for students, it presents the basics of reading, writing, and understanding han-geul script. Includes: An introduction to the alphabet, letter design, and syllabic blocks; Step-by-step illustrations for forming each character; An appendix with pronunciation rules, basic vocabulary, and brief Korean grammar.
