Jimin (A) phones her grandmother (B), who lives in the countryside.

How to study this lesson 4 steps

Read the situation under the title. It says who is talking and how they know each other, which decides how politely they speak.
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.
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.
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.

A 할머니, 저 지민이에요. 잘 지내셨어요?

Halmeoni, jeo Jiminieyo. Jal jinaesyeosseoyo?

Grandma, it's Jimin. How have you been?
B 아이고, 우리 지민이! 그럼, 잘 지냈지.

Aigo, uri Jimini! Geureom, jal jinaetji.

Oh, my Jimin! Of course, I've been fine.
A 그런데 목소리가 좀 이상해요. 감기에 걸리신 것 같아요.

Geureonde moksoriga jom isanghaeyo. Gamgie geollisin geot gatayo.

But your voice sounds a bit off. I think you've caught a cold.
B 아니야, 괜찮아. 어제 밭에서 일을 좀 많이 해서 그래.

Aniya, gwaenchana. Eoje bateseo ireul jom mani haeseo geurae.

No, I'm fine. I just did a bit too much work in the field yesterday.
A 지금 기침도 하시네요. 병원에 가 보셨어요?

Jigeum gichimdo hasineyo. Byeongwone ga bosyeosseoyo?

And you're coughing now, too. Have you been to the doctor?
B 병원은 무슨. 약 먹으면 금방 나아.

Byeongwoneun museun. Yak meogeumyeon geumbang naa.

The doctor? Nonsense. I'll take some medicine and be better in no time.
A 안 돼요. 오늘은 밭에 나가지 마시고 꼭 병원에 가세요.

An dwaeyo. Oneureun bate nagaji masigo kkok byeongwone gaseyo.

No, Grandma. Don't go out to the field today, and please see a doctor.
B 알았어, 알았어. 오후에 옆집 할아버지 차 타고 갈게.

Arasseo, arasseo. Ohue yeopjip harabeoji cha tago galge.

All right, all right. I'll get a ride with the old man next door this afternoon.
