Common Expressions Translated Into Korean
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In my interpretation, a common or
fixed expression in a language is a phrase, clause or short sentence that is frequently used
and has minimal or no change of word. Of course "do not make it spicy" is not a common expression but you are going to
need that sentence in Korea if you cannot take spicy food. Here I just focus on phrases that cannot be easily simulated by nonverbal communication (facial expression, hand signal etc) and by universally known phrases like "OK". And I avoid some dumb questions too like "Do you speak English". In Korean an expression can be conveyed in several different sentences. I will just use the common and formal ones here. It is not that good for beginners to learn colloquial expressions. The pronunciation here is not written according to standard Korean textbook because I think people will not pronounce Korean correctly with the existing method. So I come out with my own way of writing the pronunciation. This is not taught in school. My friends who learn Korean think that mine is practical because people commonly know how English is pronounced. For example 'aw' here is pronounced like the English word 'saw' without the 's'. Please note that "j" here does sound "j", not "y". Anyway if you do not want to pronounce it, you can show them the Korean sentence from this list. If you are a Korean and you want to know common expressions in English, you can work backward. If you cannot see the Korean words in the middle column, you need to set your browser's encoding to Korean under 'View' menu. If you cannot find 'Korean' in your browser's encoding list, you need to install Korean font into your browser. You may convert the list to PDF but you should find Korean font pack for your PDF reader.
