I love immersion and using a system. People tend to say to not focus on grammar. However, it's important for me because I wanna know, "Are you speaking in the present, past, or future?" AND "How do I say this respectfully?" It's hard, but I'm learning more and more. Baby steps.

Grammar is super important and you need to study it just not spend too much time on it everyday. I used to speand 15 minutes a day on it and after about 8-10 months I had enough knowledge to not spend time on it anymore and just use my grammar anki cards to keep learning

I've only started learning korean one or two months ago and iIm studying alone, but it has been so much fun. Going from understading almost anything to knowing some words and realizing I can understand just a little more of a phrase some idol wrote makes me so happy. I have been frustrated sometimes, like it's gonna be too much and I'll never gonna get it, but I'll keep going and learning. It's good to watch these kind of videos and realizing I'm going somewhat on the right direction. Off topic, but I just wanted to comment how differente korean grammar is from any language I know. I know more latin languages, such as portuguese, french and spanish, and I given that's the knowledge I had and that I'm not a "language student", I thought all languages would have similar structures. But korean is so different, it makes so excited and so happy to be learning it. It feels like my mind is growing. I feel like I'll be on top of the world when I finally get it "all".

@people layer of hope. Interesting title there. If English is your first language and your(I'm just guessing here) 30 years old. Well, how much did you know at 1 year old? Then two? When did you start talking? How many words were in your vocabulary at 3? Could you count and know your colors by age 4? Here's something to consider: you are not rehabbing English to learn Korean. You actually have to relearn everything-numbers, colors, nouns, adjectives, particles, sentences structure, and so forth. Many are doing it. So, you can too. -------myself in 3 or 4 years old now, but because of my work schedule I can only put in about 1 hour a day. When I can't think any more I just listen(to Korean한극아). If you like Korean people and language it's worth it, you will communicate effectively. The first year and a half for me was all intake- you really gotta listen to, read, and write and download the language into your brain. Sentences are not structured exactly like English, word order is not subject verb object but subject object verb. And if you speak English, you are not used to hearing the verb on the end of the sentence. Anyways, if your gonna do it, you gotta commit for the long haul. Sorry-just my two cents.

I started learning Korean on my own, but I realized that there were some aspects that I didn't understand at all, and at one point I felt like I was stuck. So, I found a teacher who is currently teaching me. She said that we will first learn 한글 and then we will study grammar, words, and phrases. I didn't even know that there are so many rules in reading. Now it has become clearer to me. I have already had three lessons, and now we spend all the time reading, reinforcing knowledge in practice, and working on pronunciation. I believe that having a teacher is very important in language learning.😊

Only sometimes. A lot of Yoda's sentences do not end in a verb. “Do or do not." "Wars not make one great.” “Always pass on what you have learned.” “Powerful you have become, the dark side I sense in you,”... Korean would be: "Do or not do." "Great one wars do not make." "Always on what you have learned pass." "You powerful have become. I in you the dark side sense."

The most difficult thing about learning human languages is they require so much memorization. It's the most boring and monotonous kind of learning there is (much like memorizing phone numbers in a phone book). The most useful Korean learning tool I ever found was the Pimsleur learning course, but they only made a couple courses. I wish someone would make something like that for more intermediate and advanced Korean learning.

Homie, what galaxy are you from? "Learning human languages" 😂 but fr you got a solid point. That's why I tend to enjoy passive learning and feel I acquire something best the more I run into the word, grammar point, etc. It's a slower method in some ways but helps me memorize without doing "memorization techniques" if that makes sense.

When people force themselves to learn vocab it's boring, hard to focus and to memorize anything. I realized and it works in my case that studying vocabulary and whole sentences with dramas is vert effective. I always watch with Naver dictionary and notebook, and every word and phrase that seems useful or fun to me I translate, find more usage and practical examples and write down.
