Day 132 of 160

Day 132: The Classroom Cookie Stand Shares

At break time, classmates Junwoo (A) and Haeun (B), both eleven, talk about their class economy game, where everyone earns and spends class money called acorns.

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.

Dialogue

Audio recordings are on the way. For now, each lesson is the dialogue with its English translation.

    Junwoo, why the long face? How are your shares in Jiho's cookie stand doing?

  2. A 말도 마. 아침에 μ„ μƒλ‹˜μ΄ λ°œν‘œν•˜μ‹  κ±° λͺ» λ“€μ—ˆμ–΄? "μ§€ν˜Έλ„€ μΏ ν‚€ κ°€κ²ŒλŠ” 큰 인기에도 λΆˆκ΅¬ν•˜κ³  문을 λ‹«κ²Œ λ˜μ—ˆμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€."

    Don't ask. Didn't you hear the teacher's announcement this morning? "Despite its great popularity, Jiho's cookie stand has closed."

  3. B μ§„μ§œ? 그럼 λ„€ λ„ν† λ¦¬λŠ”?

    Jinjja? Geureom ne dotorineun?

    Seriously? Then what about your acorns?

    Sambaek gae da naragasseo. Wanjeon sonhaeya. Han dal dongan cheongso dangbeon haeseo moeun geonde.

    All three hundred, gone. A total loss. I saved them up doing cleaning duty for a whole month.

    Cheoeumen jinjja daebak nal deutaesseo. Cheonnaren ingiga pokbaljeogieotjana. Kukiga sip bun mane da palligo jugado du baero ttwieotgo.

    At first it really looked like it was going to be huge. It was crazy popular on the first day. The cookies sold out in ten minutes, and the share price doubled.

  7. B 그건 첫날이라 μ‹ κΈ°ν•΄μ„œ 그런 κ±°μ§€. κ·Έ λ’€λ‘œλŠ” μ‚¬λŠ” μ• κ°€ λ³„λ‘œ μ—†μ—ˆμ–΄.

    Geugeon cheonnarira singihaeseo geureon geoji. Geu dwironeun saneun aega byeollo eopseosseo.

    That was just because it was new on the first day. After that, hardly anyone bought them.

  8. A μ§€ν˜Έ λ§λ‘œλŠ” 초콜릿 μΉ© 값이 λ„ˆλ¬΄ μ˜¬λΌμ„œ κ·Έλ ‡λŒ€. 그리고 μ§€ν˜Έ μ—„λ§ˆκ°€ 이제 맀일은 λͺ» κ΅¬μ›Œ μ£Όμ‹ λŒ€.

    Jiho malloneun chokollit chip gapsi neomu ollaseo geureotae. Geurigo Jiho eommaga ije maeireun mot guwo jusindae.

    Jiho says it's because chocolate chips got too expensive. And his mom says she can't bake for him every day anymore.

    Geuraedo seonsaengnimi jusigeun wiheomhadago myeot beonina malsseumhasyeotjana.

    But the teacher told us over and over that shares are risky.

    Everyone? Please. Just you and Minjae. I put mine into a savings plan at the class bank. The interest is five percent a week.

  12. A 였 νΌμ„ΌνŠΈ ν•΄ 봀자 그게 무슨 돈이 돼.

    O peosenteu hae bwatja geuge museun doni dwae.

    Five percent is hardly any money.

    Sambaek gae neoeotdeoni beolsseo sasip gae neomge neureosseo. Nae tongjang jango bollae? Neoneun jigeum hanado eopjana.

    I put in three hundred, and it's already grown by more than forty. Want to see my balance? You've got nothing right now.

  14. A κ·Έλž˜λ„ 잘됐으면 수읡이 두 λ°°μ˜€μ„ κ±°μ•Ό. λ‚˜λŠ” λ„μ „ν•œ 거라고.

    Still, if it had worked, I'd have doubled my money. I took a chance, that's all.

    Want me to do the teacher's voice? "Despite repeated warnings, Junwoo invested his entire fortune in a single stand."

  16. A ν•˜μ§€ 마! λ„ˆλ¬΄ λ˜‘κ°™μ•„μ„œ 더 κΈ°λΆ„ λ‚˜λΉ .

    Seonsaengnimi dalgyareul han bagunie damji mallago hasin geo, ije museun tteusinji algetji?

    Now do you get what the teacher meant about not putting all your eggs in one basket?

  18. A μ•Œμ•„, μ•Œμ•„. λ‹€μŒ 달엔 λ°˜μ€ μ €κΈˆν•˜κ³ , λ°˜μ€ μ—¬λŸ¬ κ°€κ²Œμ— μ‘°κΈˆμ”© λ‚˜λˆ μ„œ νˆ¬μžν•  κ±°μ•Ό.

    I know, I know. Next month I'll save half and spread the other half across a few different stands.

    Now you sound like an investor. When I get my interest, I'll buy you a cookie. Just not from Jiho's.
