《Korean Language 101》Importance of (요)
Advertisement
In last chapter I explained some important stufffsss. I am not good at formal korean but there is something you should know!
The first thing you should learn in formal language is -요.
-요 is a particle typically placed at the end of a word- the word is typically at the end of the sentence. In other words, to make a sentence formal, add -요 in the end.
Example time!
We learnt 주다 = to give (verb)
If we remove the particle -다, what we have left behind is 주.
주 means give. But we never say 바나나 우유 주 nope-
We add -세요 to make it polite. 주+세요=주세요.
주세요 is used very frequently. If you watch korean dramas, you would have definitely heard it.
주세요 is a polite way to ask someone to give you something.
초코 우유 주세요 is a perfect sentence.
Let's make an order at starbucks.
아메리카노 주세요 = Americano please.
Don't like coffee? Lets order grape juice.
포도 주스 주세요 = Grape juice please.
New words we learnt today:
아메리카노: americano
포도: grapes
주스: Juice

Malt the Manslayer
This story does not follow a hero. Malt doesn’t slay dragons with a holy sword nor is he granted immense magical power when he transfers. Unlike his three classmates, he was brought into the new world not as a mythical hero, but with stats comparable if not worse than the average townsfolk. Assaulted by feelings of inadequacy and weakness, he leaves the comfortable castle life that the royalty offered him and decides to help his new country in the only way he thinks he can. By joining the war on the southern border. Not a war against mythical beasts or powerful demons, but against other humans. He thought that he’d finish a single deployment then come back to the castle, proud enough to stand beside his friends again. Little did he know that he’d become one of the most feared fighters on the battlefield, killing so many that he’d earn the moniker, “Malt the Manslayer.”
8 131The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island. There are hardly any monsters, the land is fertile, and the people kind. This is the complete opposite of what Tristan wants. Bring on the monsters! Bring on the magical items! I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.
