Well that's lucky! Im glad you like the song~

School started from today... Im tired like crazy and i reckon im so busy coz i have to work and study at the same time. I even have classes during dinner time - so busy. Keke I work at a Sushi shop these days. Here's a photo of where i work.

www.sushiosushi.com keke

I also remember your face fragment by fragment in my memory.

keke Dont work yourself too hard~ I'll buy you something yummy later~ ^-^ keke

Have a good day sis*!!

*not necessarily "sis" as in siblings but "sis" as in he's talking to a girl who is older than him. It is how koreans address people, different from english

나두 누나 맛있는거 많이 사줄게~ ^-^

(boy speaking to a girl older than him)

I'll also buy lots of yummy things~ ^-^

I listen to the music a lot. I listen to it everday in the car and i really like it. Keke

So you're doing nothing but work these days? Must be hard and tiring...

I have to study even if it means death here sis*...I hate it so much, but its something my future is depending on...Its beyond just Dad, it's about me making lots of money... I have to study Jazz as well so there is still a very long way to go... I live in California at the moment but wanna go live somewhere like New York later...

Big Sis* FIGHTING#! Have a great day!

*not necassarily "sis" as in siblings but "sis" as in he's talking to a girl who is older than him. It is how koreans address people, different from english

#"Fighting": Korean cheerleading. To encourage and motivate someone.

[Guest inocupcake]

Thanks again sweet_rain ^^ And for the 누나 part, I was assuming that they were really close.. so that's why I wrote it all informal.

[Guest sweet_rain]

that's why i wrote the formal version~~

hahaha, maybe its just me~~i dont have any really close 누나-friends who i speak casual korean to, lol.

most of my friends are same age or younger than me

It feels weird for me to speak informal to a 누나~hahah xD

[Guest lackluster]

YES!! now i dont have to buy a 50 dollar dictionary

[Guest tengteng]

What do older bros/sis called theri brother younger than them in korean???

[Guest HT2791]

just call em dongseng

or..

야!

haha

[Guest NinJa_girL]

can you tell me wat han bun and jung mal jal dae ssh myunh jo el ten dae mean??

thanks^^

[Guest sweet_rain]

can you tell me wat han bun and jung mal jal dae ssh myunh jo el ten dae mean??

thanks^^

Han Bun (한번): Once.

Jung Mal Jal Dae ssh myunh jo el ten dae (정말 잘되시면 좋을텐데): It'll be great if things really do work out well for you.

What do older bros/sis called theri brother younger than them in korean???

Donseng means little bro/sis

(Yoh-Donseng= little sis and Num-Dongseng = little bro)

but when the older bro/sis is addressing the younger one, it'll just be 야 (Ya), which is an informal "You"

YES!! now i dont have to buy a 50 dollar dictionary

Hahahaha, well as far as Pro's and Con's go for both Dictionary and Soompi

With dictionary, u always have access to things u need, but as far as sentences, phrases and expressions in Korean go...a dictionary wont really help at all coz it just tells u the meaning of words. I mean, if u give a person who knows no english a dictionary, they'll know the definition of words, but the person will have trouble formulating sentences.

With Soompi...well i guess we can provide better help when u need to deal with Sentences and phrases (Any text that contains korean/english), but it cant be guaranteed that someone will always be there to translate it for u coz this system is based on volunteer work, lol.

There are 'dictionaries' and translators available thru the internet such as Babel Fish http://babelfish.altavista.com/ but i only recommend it for emergency use as often the translations they give are kinda retarded.

eg: i tried to translate "너를 많이 사랑했었나봐" into English and the Internet translator said it meant "It will be extensive and it loved plentifully to see" When in fact it actually means "I must have loved u a lot"

[Guest Karinojjang~*]

^its slightly difficult coz some of those expressions may not exist in the Korean language, but i'll try.

"너는 나의 모든것이야..::;;.,.너는 나의 삶을 유지하는 호흡이야.,.너는 영원히 나의 모든것이니.,.::;;[ 너를 잊으려고 노력을 하는데..왜 못할까? T-T -]"

THANKS U SO MUCH ^^

[Guest amazingdude1]

What does "Ssuah" (쏴) mean?

[Jaeho]

^ Do you have the Korean for that? I have no idea what you wrote. lol ><:

edit: It means "shoot"

[Guest babossagaji]

I encountered a book with korean slang. Hahaha....

I was wondering if this is proper to use for not so intimate friends...

새끼 잘 있었냐?

그리고....자식 있었냐?

왜 그대 임마?

I'm scared I might offend people.

[Guest inocupcake]

O.o Yes, I think it probably will.

[Guest mangchilo]

Well, I wouldn't use those for intimate friends.

새끼 잘 있었냐? <--새끼 is kind of the same as saying richard simmons, so I wouldn't use that.

그리고....자식 있었냐? <--This one doesn't make since It says Also...was that kid there? Well, kid as in, more of a meany, joking kind of way, if you put it that way. --edit;; Oh, from a book, well...just don't use it, I don't think you're going to use that phrase anyways.

왜 그대 임마? <--Do you mean 왜 그래 임마? Hm...maybe you can use this one. But just jokingly and make the joking clear.

I think that you should make your joking tone REALLY REALLY CLEAR to them if you want to say these, even though I would never use these.

i remember seeign this type of stuff and actually the person who asked is right, they're used when you're just chillin' or sayin hey or joking with your buddies (who're probably guys if you're saying this...), like in english, "yo what up, b*stard/richard simmons," i know some of my guy friends and i say that. if you use them with anyone else you're calling them insulting names and probably being too familiar, too. uh, 자식 literally is like "kiddo" but in a slang context it's kinda like b*stard again if i remember right, like 새끼. and yeah you mean 왜 그래 임마?, and again you would use this with a friend, it's like the first one (새끼 잘 있었냐?). except the one is literally like "you been good?" and the second one is more like "wassap," kind of.

왜 그대 임마? <--Do you mean 왜 그래 임마? Hm...maybe you can use this one. But just jokingly and make the joking clear.

Hmm....I was gonna buy that book...maybe I shouldn't. It said that 새끼 and 자식 actually means baby but it's also slang. Like how Americans use the word @$$h0L3. I wonder who made that book? O_O

Hmm....I guess I won't have a use for it then.

[Guest jeffy]

Can someone translate this for me plz?

그래도...사랑이다

thank you.
