    what is the difference between 카메라 and 사진기?

    • marie

      They are the same thing except 카메라 is Konglish and is used a little more often than 사진기 which is the original Korean word for camera. At least that is what I think. : )

      카메라 is just an imported word for camera. We often call Camera as 카메라 rather than 사진기.

    Hyojin, I have a suggestion. Please TTMIK(talk to me in KOREAN)! The pictures clearly show what objects you are talking about, so really no English explanation is needed. At times like this you can explain in Korean and we students will pick up a few words or sentence patterns by listening to how you use Korean to describe the vocabulary words.
    Also, if you were explaining live, my Korean’s poor so i would need to rely on your excellent English. But since you’ve created a video that i can replay many many times, i can (eventually) understand a Korean explanation.

    It’s still a great video, but by speaking more Korean you could maximize the learning possibilities for the student. Thanks!!

      Great idea! :)

      Next “Korean Vocabulary with Pictures” video is going to be in Korean:) Thanks for the suggestion ^-^

    Great video! Very upbeat! Personally, I like the format the way it is now, but I will adapt if it switches to 100% Korean :)

    If I may make one suggestion: I would greatly appreciate being able to see you pronounce the words, as it helps me know how to shape my mouth. In video #3 with Hyunwoo you could still see him as the video zoomed in on the picture. Otherwise terrific video!

    Joking, I like this but may I make a suggestion. People are trying to learn this and even tough Korean is easy for you, it is very difficult for us Westerners so… Please SLOW DOWN…… When you are mentioning the items

    I have been learning to say chair in Korean with the first syllable sounding like 으. Is this correct? Why is there different versions?
