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 μ•ˆλ…•ν•˜μ„Έμš”. 이 μ›ν”ΌμŠ€ ν™˜λΆˆν•˜λ €κ³ μš”. μ–΄μ œ μƒ€λŠ”λ° μ§‘μ—μ„œ λ‹€μ‹œ μž…μ–΄ λ³΄λ‹ˆκΉŒ 생각보닀 μ•ˆ μ–΄μšΈλ €μ„œμš”.

    Annyeonghaseyo. I wonpiseu hwanbulharyeogoyo. Eoje sanneunde jibeseo dasi ibeo bonikka saenggakboda an eoullyeoseoyo.

    Hi. I'd like a refund on this dress. I bought it yesterday, but when I tried it on again at home, it didn't suit me as much as I thought.

  2. B λ„€, 영수증 μžˆμœΌμ„Έμš”? μƒνƒœ μ’€ 확인해 λ³Όκ²Œμš”.

    Ne, yeongsujeung isseuseyo? Sangtae jom hwaginhae bolgeyo.

    Sure, do you have the receipt? Let me just check its condition.

  3. A μ—¬κΈ°μš”. νƒœκ·Έλ„ κ·ΈλŒ€λ‘œ 달렀 μžˆμ–΄μš”.

    Yeogiyo. Taegeudo geudaero dallyeo isseoyo.

    Here you go. The tag's still on it.

  4. B λ„€... 그런데 κ³ κ°λ‹˜, μ•ˆκ°μ— νŒŒμš΄λ°μ΄μ…˜ 자ꡭ이 묻어 μžˆλ„€μš”. κ²¨λ“œλž‘μ΄ μͺ½μ—μ„œλŠ” ν–₯수 λƒ„μƒˆλ„ μ’€ λ‚˜κ³ μš”.

    Ne... geureonde gogaengnim, angame paundeisyeon jagugi mudeo inneyo. Gyeodeurangi jjogeseoneun hyangsu naemsaedo jom nagoyo.

    Right... But there's a foundation mark on the lining. And there's a bit of a perfume smell around the underarms.

  5. A μž…μ–΄ 보기만 ν–ˆμ§€ 밖에 μž…κ³  λ‚˜κ°„ 적은 μ—†μ–΄μš”. μ§‘μ—μ„œ μž…μ–΄ λ³Ό λ•Œ ν™”μž₯ν•œ μƒνƒœμ—¬μ„œ λ¬»μ—ˆλ‚˜ λ΄μš”.

    Ibeo bogiman haetji bakke ipgo nagan jeogeun eopseoyo. Jibeseo ibeo bol ttae hwajanghan sangtaeyeoseo mudeonna bwayo.

    I only tried it on, I never wore it out. I had make-up on when I tried it at home, so it must have rubbed off.

  6. B κ·ΈλŸ¬μ‹€ μˆ˜λ„ 있죠. λ‹€λ§Œ νƒœκ·Έ 끈이 ν•œ 번 λœ―κ²Όλ‹€κ°€ λ‹€μ‹œ 묢인 것 κ°™μ•„μ„œμš”.

    Geureosil sudo itjyo. Daman Taegeu kkeuni han beon tteutgyeotdaga dasi mukkin geot gataseoyo.

    That's possible. It's just that the tag string looks like it was pulled off once and tied back on.

  7. A 그건 μ›λž˜ κ·Έλž¬μ–΄μš”. μ§€κΈˆ μ €λ₯Ό μ˜μ‹¬ν•˜μ‹œλŠ” κ±°μ˜ˆμš”?

    Geugeon wollae geuraesseoyo. Jigeum jeoreul uisimhasineun geoyeyo?

    It was like that already. Are you suspecting me?

  8. B μ•„λ‹ˆμš”, 그런 λœ»μ€ μ•„λ‹ˆμ—μš”. 그런데 μ˜μˆ˜μ¦μ„ λ³΄λ‹ˆκΉŒ μ–΄μ œ μ˜€μ „μ— μ‚¬μ…¨λ„€μš”. ν•˜ν•„ κ²°ν˜Όμ‹μ΄ 제일 λ§Žμ€ ν† μš”μΌμ΄μ—ˆκ³ μš”.

    Aniyo, geureon tteuseun anieyo. Geureonde yeongsujeungeul bonikka eoje ojeone sasyeonneyo. Hapil gyeolhonsigi jeil maneun toyoirieotgoyo.

    No, I don't mean that. But the receipt shows you bought it yesterday morning. Which happened to be a Saturday, the busiest day for weddings.

  9. A 그게 μ™œμš”?

    Geuge waeyo?

    What's that got to do with it?

  10. B 주말에 ν•˜κ° 옷으둜 사 κ°€μ…¨λ‹€κ°€ κ²°ν˜Όμ‹μ΄ λλ‚˜κΈ°κ°€ λ°”μ˜κ²Œ λ‹€μ‹œ κ°€μ Έμ˜€μ‹œλŠ” 뢄듀이 가끔 κ³„μ…”μ„œμš”.

    Jumare hagaek oseuro sa gasyeotdaga gyeolhonsigi kkeunnagiga bappeuge dasi gajyeoosineun bundeuri gakkeum gyesyeoseoyo.

    Every now and then, people buy an outfit to wear as a wedding guest at the weekend and bring it back the moment the wedding's over.

  11. A κ·ΈλŸ¬λ‹ˆκΉŒ μ œκ°€ κ²°ν˜Όμ‹μ— μž…κ³  κ°”λ‹€κ³  μƒκ°ν•˜μ‹œλŠ” κ±°μž–μ•„μš”. μ†”μ§νžˆ μ’€ μ–Έμ§’λ„€μš”.

    Geureonikka jega gyeolhonsige ipgo gatdago saenggakasineun geojanayo. Soljiki jom eonjjanneyo.

    So you think I wore it to a wedding. Honestly, I find that a bit offensive.

  12. B κΈ°λΆ„ μƒν•˜μ…¨λ‹€λ©΄ μ£„μ†‘ν•©λ‹ˆλ‹€. 저도 ν™•μ‹ ν•˜λŠ” 건 μ•„λ‹ˆμ—μš”. λ‹€λ§Œ 이 μƒνƒœλ‘œλŠ” μƒˆ μƒν’ˆμœΌλ‘œ λ‹€μ‹œ μ§„μ—΄ν•˜κΈ°κ°€ μ–΄λ €μ›Œμ„œμš”.

    Gibun sanghasyeotdamyeon joesonghamnida. Jeodo hwaksinhaneun geon anieyo. Daman i sangtaeroneun sae sangpumeuro dasi jinyeolhagiga eoryeowoseoyo.

    I'm sorry if I've upset you. I'm not certain either. It's just that in this condition, it'd be hard to put it back on the rack as new.

  13. A κ·œμ •μ—λŠ” 일주일 μ•ˆμ— ν™˜λΆˆλœλ‹€κ³  μ ν˜€ μžˆλ˜λ°μš”.

    Gyujeongeneun iljuil ane hwanbuldoendago jeokyeo itdeondeyo.

    Your policy says refunds are given within a week.

  14. B λ„€, λ§žμŠ΅λ‹ˆλ‹€. 그런데 κ·Έ κ·œμ •μ—λŠ” 쑰건이 ν•˜λ‚˜ 더 μžˆμ–΄μš”. 착용 흔적이 μ—†μ–΄μ•Ό ν•˜κ±°λ“ μš”.

    Ne, matseumnida. Geureonde geu gyujeongeneun jogeoni hana deo isseoyo. Chagyong heunjeogi eopseoya hageodeunyo.

    Yes, that's right. But there's one more condition in that policy. There must be no sign of wear.

  15. A ...μ†”μ§νžˆ λ§ν• κ²Œμš”. 친ꡬ κ²°ν˜Όμ‹μ— 두 μ‹œκ°„ 정도 μž…μ—ˆμ–΄μš”. λ„ˆλ¬΄ λΉ„μ‹Έμ„œ 사 놓고도 계속 λ§ˆμŒμ— κ±Έλ Έκ±°λ“ μš”.

    ...Soljiki malhalgeyo. Chingu gyeolhonsige du sigan jeongdo ibeosseoyo. Neomu bissaseo sa nokodo gyesok maeume geollyeotgeodeunyo.

    ...I'll be honest. I wore it to a friend's wedding for about two hours. It was so expensive that it kept bothering me even after I'd bought it.

  16. B 말씀해 μ£Όμ…”μ„œ κ°μ‚¬ν•΄μš”. ν™˜λΆˆμ€ μ–΄λ ΅μ§€λ§Œ, μ„ΈνƒλΉ„λ§Œ λΆ€λ‹΄ν•˜μ‹œλ©΄ 같은 κ°€κ²©λŒ€μ˜ λ‹€λ₯Έ 옷으둜 κ΅ν™˜μ€ ν•΄ λ“œλ¦΄ 수 μžˆμ–΄μš”.

    Malsseumhae jusyeoseo gamsahaeyo. Hwanbureun eoryeopjiman, setakbiman budamhasimyeon gateun gagyeokdaeui dareun oseuro gyohwaneun hae deuril su isseoyo.

    Thank you for telling me. A refund's difficult, but if you cover the cleaning cost, I can exchange it for something else in the same price range.

  17. A κ΅ν™˜μ΄μš”? 그럼 μ œκ°€ ν‰μ†Œμ— μž…μ„ λ§Œν•œ 옷으둜 골라도 λΌμš”?

    Gyohwaniyo? Geureom jega pyeongsoe ibeul manhan oseuro gollado dwaeyo?

    An exchange? So I can choose something I'd actually wear day to day?

  18. B λ„€, 이번 μ£Ό μ•ˆμ—λ§Œ κ³ λ₯΄μ‹œλ©΄ λΌμš”. 세탁은 저희가 맑기고, μ˜μˆ˜μ¦μ€ μƒˆλ‘œ λŠμ–΄ λ“œλ¦΄κ²Œμš”.

    Ne, ibeon ju aneman goreusimyeon dwaeyo. Setageun jeohuiga matgigo, yeongsujeungeun saero kkeuneo deurilgeyo.

    Yes, as long as you choose by the end of this week. We'll send it for cleaning and issue you a new receipt.

  19. A 그럼 κ·Έλ ‡κ²Œ ν• κ²Œμš”. μ²˜μŒμ— κ±°μ§“λ§ν•΄μ„œ μ£„μ†‘ν•΄μš”. μ†”μ§ν•˜κ²Œ λ§ν•˜κ³  λ‚˜λ‹ˆκΉŒ 마음이 ν•œκ²° κ°€λ³λ„€μš”.

    Geureom geureoke halgeyo. Cheoeume geojinmalhaeseo joesonghaeyo. Soljikage malhago nanikka maeumi hangyeol gabyeomneyo.

    Then let's do that. I'm sorry I lied at first. Now that I've come clean, I feel much lighter.
