TTMIK Level 8 Lesson 30 - PDF - a podcast by G9Languages

In this series, we focus on how you can use the grammatical rules and expressions that you have previously learned to train yourself to comfortably make Korean sentences. 

We will start off with THREE key sentences and practice changing different parts of these sentences so that you don’t end up simply memorizing the same three sentences. We want you to be able to be as flexible as possible when making Korean sentences.

Key Sentence #1
?? ?? ?? ???? ????.
[jeo-neun deu-reun dae-ro jeon-da-rae-sseul ppu-ni-e-yo.]
= I just told them what I had heard.
= I just delivered the message exactly as I heard it.

Key Sentence #2
?? ?? ??, ????? ?? ?? ? ????
[hon-ja ga-ji mal-go, chin-gu-deu-ri-rang ga-chi ga-neun geon eo-ttae-yo?]
= Rather than going there alone, how about going with your friends?

Key Sentence #3
