where can i learn the korean language?

Question

is there anysite that can help me learn korean?

Answer 1

Sogang university has the best online website for learning korean, and it's FREE!!!
http://hompi.sogang.ac.kr/korean/
Also Sogang university has Korean classes on campus, and you can buy the books in any bookstore in Korea (perhaps you can buy them online if you live somewhere else). You dont necessarily have to be doing their course to learn from their books.
The characters in the books and the characters online are similar, and all follow the same story and learning patterns, so it works well together. They also have an online Grammar course, which is supplemented with a book.
Enjoy.

Answer 2

Take something you like to do, like backpacking and/or eating and have stuff about them translated into Korean on a free website found by a search engine. Then you can talk about it with some (many) mistakes that a waiter or waitress at a Korean restaurant will help you with because they want a good tip ($) from you. For example - have this translated:
Granite Gourmet Knowledge Cards
Text on reverse face:
As hungry as one becomes while walking the backcountry, few people recall the food as a high point of their trek. Constraints of weight and bulk, and fatigue at day's end, make food fuel and nothing more. It doesn’t have to be that way. Granite Gourmet will show you how to pack light and eat right. The author, an experienced backpacking cook, shares her discoveries of fast, delicious, high-energy traveling meals and the tricks to transporting and preparing them. Her notes on dried food are enough to make you want to go dehydrate something just because it’ll taste great, and her evident ability to draw complex, sophisticated flavors from a minimalist’s ingredient list will inspire home cooks as well as wanderers. A little time spent with the recipes and insights of this deck’s 48 cards will have your traveling companions wondering how they didn’t starve before you came along.

Try Rosettastone.com. Their program's pretty good...but still, the best way to learn is to go to Korea. I learned simply by listening to it 24/7. The grammer is soooo completely different from English that contemporary learning styles don't work very well. In fact, evidence of this can be seen in Rosettastone's attempt to make software for this language...they only made level one!! I've been working at speaking Korean now for about four years...I'm only intermediate!! Good luck!

There is a fabulous program called Deklan that you con download off the internet. It isn't free but it certainly is good. They have many other languages available too. And you can download what you want to learn and then delete it when your done, if you want to review you are always free to download again. Besides that there are lots and lots of books available, my personal favourite is "Korean through English" it is a fabulous series with conversation and reading exercises as you advance.

Answer 5

These days you can learn how to speak Korean over the internet. Check out this online course, it's voted as the best Korean online course of all time: http://www.rocketlearner.com/korean The course is very easy to follow, I was able to learn Korean in just 3 months.

I live in New York City, I wanted to go to a Korean language teacher but that would have cost me over $800 per month. Good thing with this internet, $800 it's a lot of money for me.

Buy a book and learn the alphabet first. There are only about 24 +/ - charachters and it's pretty easy. The hard part is learning the vocabulary.
