Synopsis

Learning Korean can be difficult, just as learning English is challenging for Koreans, mostly due to the inversion in grammar structures. Chad Meyer--an American--and Kim Moon-jung--a Korean--are a husband and wife who wrote this book for tourists, businesspeople, English teachers, military, and anyone else with a desire to understand Korean culture and speak Korean. ''An Illustrated Guide to Korean'' features easy and practical Korean colloquial expressions that can be put to use in one's everyday life, charming illustrations that aid comprehension, and interesting tips about Korean culture, ideal for people looking for an easier, more entertaining way to learn Korean. It is a must-have item for expats who want to get the most out of Korean life as well as for Koreans who want to learn key English expressions. Knowing key words and phrases will help people living in Korea communicate without difficulty. The bilingualism of the authors has made the high-quality Korean and English expressions found throughout the book possible.
