Word of the Day

언제 와? (eonje wa?) | [Word of the Day]

1 Comment

안녕하세요!

Today is more of a phrase rather than a word. It’s a combination of things we’ve gone over before so I’ll add the words and combine them.

Word(s):

  • 언제 (eonje) | “when”
  • 와 (wa)
    • conjugated form of 오다 meaning “to come”

Phrase:

  • 언제 와? (eonje wa?) | “When are you coming?” or “When are you coming back?”
    • “You” is implied in the conversation and doesn’t need to be stated.
    • “Back” is also implied depending on the conversation but most of the time this is a way to ask when someone will be arriving.

 

Okay so that’s it for this week!

Word of the Day

재밌다 (jaemissda) {Update} | [Word of the Day]

안녕하세요!

Sorry! I forgot what day it was yesterday and completely forgot to post a word. However, I’ve returned with another familiar word only a different way to translate it.

  • 재밌다 (jaemissda)

In the past, I gave one translation of this which is, “to be interesting; fun”, however there is another translation for this word that may be a bit more useful in an everyday setting.

Word:

  • 재밌다 (jaemissda) | “funny”

i.e.,

  • 너 재밌다. (neo jaemissda) | “You’re funny.”
  • 영화를 좀 재밌다. 그것은 나를 웃게했다. (yeonghwaleul jom jaemissda. geugeos-eun naleul usgehaessda.) | “The movie is funny. It made me laugh.”
  • 아기가 웃고 있습니까? 재밌 네요. (agiga usgo issseubnikka? jaemiss neyo.) | “Is the baby laughing? That’s funny.”
Word of the Day

글쎄요 (geulsseyo)| [Word of the Day]

안녕하세요!

This is a phrase that’s said a lot in k-dramas and Korean movies. It’s also commonly said in everyday conversations. I wanted to share it because it was kinda on my mind and I figured this may be a word that maybe someone was looking for a definition.

Word:

  • 글쎄요 (geulsseyo)|”well; maybe; we’ll see…; I don’t know”

Artist of the Week | PENOMECO 페노메코

Audio Leave a comment

So we have returned to the Artist of the Week! It took me a little longer than usual to find a new artist because all of my recommendations were for people I already knew so I was trying to find something new and ended up finding new music from the same people and was hooked on the new songs.

It was a process.

However, I have emerged with a new artist (to me)… PENOMECO 페노메코!

I will admit I just heard of him today. Literally heard one song and was completely a fan! My favorite by him is probably COCO Bottle but I also added some other songs that you may or may not be familiar with. I don’t know much about him but he does have a very R&B/hip-hop sound with a pop influence as well. I like his music and I’ll definitely be adding him to my playlist.

Check out the sample playlist below!
