How to study this lesson 4 steps
  1. Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
  2. Read the dialogue line by line with its translation, until every line makes sense. Still learning Hangul? Tick Romanization to see how each line sounds, but read the Korean first.
  3. Download the Anki deck below and review it every day. It has every line of today's dialogue. Review earlier decks too when Anki asks you to.
  4. Spend at least 30 minutes listening to native Korean, for example from the Resources page. It doesn't matter if you don't understand it yet.

  1. A 아이스 아메리카노 한 잔 주세요. 여기서 마시고 갈게요.

    Aiseu amerikano han jan juseyo. Yeogiseo masigo galgeyo.

    One iced americano, please. For here.

  2. B 네. 혹시 오늘 경기 보러 가세요? 유니폼을 입고 오셨네요.

    Ne. Hoksi oneul gyeonggi boreo gaseyo? Yunipomeul ipgo osyeonneyo.

    Sure. Are you going to the match today? I see you're wearing the shirt.

  3. A 네, 경기 시작까지 두 시간쯤 남아서 여기서 기다리려고요.

    Ne, gyeonggi sijakkkaji du siganjjeum namaseo yeogiseo gidariryeogoyo.

    Yes, there are about two hours until kickoff, so I thought I'd wait here.

  4. B 그럼 저 안내문을 한번 봐 주시겠어요? "경기 날에는 손님이 많으므로 좌석은 한 시간까지만 이용하실 수 있습니다."

    Geureom jeo annaemuneul hanbeon bwa jusigesseoyo? "Gyeonggi nareneun sonnimi maneumeuro jwaseogeun han sigankkajiman iyonghasil su itseumnida."

    Then could you take a look at that notice? "On match days we are very busy, so seats may be used for one hour only."

  5. A 한 시간이요? 워낙 사람이 많으니까 어쩔 수 없죠. 어, 그런데 그 열쇠고리 수원 거 아니에요?

    Han siganiyo? Wonak sarami maneunikka eojjeol su eopjyo. Eo, geureonde geu yeolsoegori Suwon geo anieyo?

    One hour? Well, it gets so crowded, there's no helping it. Oh, wait, isn't that key ring a Suwon one?

  6. B 맞아요. 저도 수원 팬이에요. 십 년째 응원하고 있어요.

    Majayo. Jeodo Suwon paenieyo. Sip nyeonjjae eungwonhago isseoyo.

    That's right. I'm a Suwon fan too. I've been supporting them for ten years.

  7. A 반가워요! 근데 요즘은 응원하기가 좀 힘들죠?

    Bangawoyo! Geunde yojeumeun eungwonhagiga jom himdeuljyo?

    Great to meet a fellow fan! But it's been tough to be a supporter lately, hasn't it?

  8. B 말도 마세요. 벌써 다섯 경기째 못 이기고 있잖아요.

    Maldo maseyo. Beolsseo daseot gyeonggijjae mot igigo itjanayo.

    Don't get me started. We haven't won in five matches.

  9. A 지난주 경기는 진짜 억울했어요. 너무 속상해서 끝나기 전에 나왔어요.

    Jinanju gyeonggineun jinjja eogulhaesseoyo. Neomu soksanghaeseo kkeunnagi jeone nawasseoyo.

    Last week's match was so unfair. I was so upset I left before the final whistle.

  10. B 저는 그날 밤에 잠을 못 잤어요. 친구들은 이제 지겹지도 않냐고 해요.

    Jeoneun geunal bame jameul mot jasseoyo. Chingudeureun ije jigyeopjido annyago haeyo.

    I couldn't sleep that night. My friends keep asking if I'm not sick of it yet.

  11. A 저희 엄마도 그래요. 그래도 저는 또 지더라도 계속 갈 거예요. 이길 때만 가면 무슨 팬이에요.

    Jeohui eommado geuraeyo. Geuraedo jeoneun tto jideorado gyesok gal geoyeyo. Igil ttaeman gamyeon museun paenieyo.

    My mom says the same. But even if they lose again, I'll keep going. What kind of fan only goes when they win?

  12. B 맞아요. 저도 일 끝나는 대로 후반전 보러 갈 거예요.

    Majayo. Jeodo il kkeunnaneun daero hubanjeon boreo gal geoyeyo.

    Exactly. I'm going to catch the second half as soon as my shift ends.

  13. A 그럼 경기장에서 만날 수도 있겠네요. 오늘은 제발 이겼으면 좋겠어요.

    Geureom gyeonggijangeseo mannal sudo itgenneyo. Oneureun jebal igyeosseumyeon jokesseoyo.

    Then we might see each other at the stadium. Please let them win today.

  14. B 지더라도 목이 쉬도록 응원해요, 우리. 여기 아메리카노 나왔습니다.

    Jideorado mogi swidorok eungwonhaeyo, uri. Yeogi amerikano nawatseumnida.
