A common mistake when using Korean counters is repetitive sounding sentences, and this can be caused by both overusing markers and unnecessary words. In this lesson I explain how to avoid both problems, and how to count in Korean more naturally.

The way I thought I was wrong not putting 책 in the sentence the first time (as I knew that 권 was the counter for books) and then being so happy to find out I didn't need it after all. Thank you for another interesting lesson Billy 👍🏻

It's nice to see that Billy understands the kind of quantities in which books should be purchased. 😂 감사합니다 빌리 선생님! This was an interesting and useful lesson.

Do words in Korean often get confused that sound similar to someone who has not encountered Korean in a while?

thank you so much! I am currently in a Sejong course and there the subject marker is put at the end of the noun (f.e. monkey) but in Duolingo the suject marker always comes after the counter - so I was really wondering what is right.

선생님 안녕하세요 Would you consider making " learning Korean through songs lyrics" videos? I think many people like learning through songs I will be more than happy if you make some lyrics videos 😊

I would, but they wouldn't last due to copyright :-)

What about 두 사람 vs 두 명?

@GoBillyKorean 7 ай бұрын

You'd use 사람 when you're not showing additional respect toward people (and use 분 when you do), but just when you mean "2 people" as a noun - not even necessarily counting them, but just saying "the two of them" or something like that. 명 though on its own doesn't have any extra respect, but isn't impolite, and is the one you'll want to use when actually counting people. 분 though can be used for either just to mean "people" or for counting when you want to show extra respect.
