    ( I eat salmon )
    Lol is this right guys, just a simple sentence

    • lolilup yup,

      i think it’s right ^^ yes

  13. Mira Sahawneh,

    can someone help me! in lesson 21 why is it ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์–ด์š” and not ๊ฐ€์ง€์•Š์—ˆ์š”?

    • CJ Baluyot,

      You look at the last vowel of the syllable! For ์•Š it’s ์•„, so you still need to add ์•˜์–ด์š” after.

      • Mira Sahawneh,

        so if the last vowel of a syllable is a its followed by ์•˜์–ด์š” right?

    • Laurie Lynne,

      Correction: ” I does not go ” ?

    • Laurie Lynne,

      ๊ฐ€์ง€์•Š์—ˆ์š” Wouldn’t this read as ” I does go” ?

  14. Laurie Lynne,

    I have reviewed level 1 several times, as instructed :). You have made it easy and fun. ๊ฐ์‚ฌํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ ํ•œ๋ˆˆ ์ด๋ฆ„์€ ๋Ÿฌ๋ฆฌ ๋ฆฐ ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. (Laurie Lynn)

      • Rebeca Formagiu,

        Yes, that does really not matter, because they are basically the same thing

  19. Horayn Gibson,

    Hello! Iโ€™m almost finished with level 1 and looking for a study buddy. If you want to study with me DM me @coco._.trees on IG

    • Lucy x,

      Hi I was just wondering, Im just starting now, but do you know hangul? and if you do how did you learn it?

      • Elle Scott,

        miss vicky’s youtube video on learn hangul in 30 minutes is a true life saver, this helped me to learn hangul really quickly, my advise would be to write hangul and its pronounciation in english (though the pronounciation will not be fully correct it will help alot). then search on youtube ‘hangul pronounciation’ and so many videos will come that are super easy to learn from. then from there try to read and write in as much hangul as you can, and when reading korean, try not to read the romanization, even if this means going back to your notes that you made on hangul and pronounciation, this will benefit you alot in the long run. i hope this helped, and this is only from my experience and now i find it really easy to read and write in korean ๐Ÿ™‚

      • Mira Sahawneh,

        I learnt it just by watching videos and using Duolingo (I don’t use Duolingo anymore) and reading as much ํ•œ๊ธ€ as I can

      • Lina 123,

        Lucy x Hey I’m currently still on level 1 but I have learned Hangul way before starting studying on this website. I recommend you watching Miss Vicky’s YouTube video ‘Learn Hangul In 30 Minutes'(There many other videos out there that can help you but this is the one that I liked the most). But of course in order to master it you will need to practice reading words written in Hangul and for that you can look up Korean videos and practice by reading the title (that’s what I did) or you can just look up videos that can help you practice reading Hangul ( I watched videos from the channel Conversational Korean). I hope this helped!

      • Laurie Lynne,

        I found it easier to learn the sounds without the romanization, as the English language does not have the same linquistic tones. Talk to me in Korean ” How to read and write Hanguel”

  20. anisa rahma,
