Korean Comprehension Practice

[Tamela]

Thisis a bundle for everyone who is serious about their Korean learning. After studying with levels 1 through 5 and practicing with workbooks, you will be able to hold conversations with Korean speakers in everyday situations.

What I like most about these workbooks is that they are based on real situations and every day language in addition to having beautiful drawings and written with a lot of sense of humour:)

I own all 10 workbooks and like to refer to them and constantly review as I advance with my Korean studies. They have writing, reading and listening comprehension practice that follow the lessons curriculum.

Thank you for studying Korean with us! We checked the accompanying audio files and confirmed that the audio tracks match the exercises in the workbook. If you have any other questions or feedback, please contact us at [email protected] ?

The chart features consonants and vowels in Korean, complete with audio clips, in-depth written pronunciation and Hangul. As a little bonus, zKorean also made an Anki deck of the entire guide, so you can practice your Korean listening abilities on the go.

Each unit has a test that includes reading comprehension, grammar and listening questions. For the listening section, you have to listen to a short dialogue and then select an answer in a multiple-choice format.

There is also an entire Listening Practice section available for Unit 1, which is the first 25 lessons. The answer is an example sentence that you learned in the lesson. This might be slightly trickier as it requires you to listen and then type what you hear into the box provided.

This blog took this concept and made it into a full-fledged Korean language course based on K-POP music. Each entry on this blog revolves around a Korean song and then has a system where it refers to a specific grammar point on the website.

There are no grammar lessons here, but there are Korean lyrics, romanizations and translations available for each song. The YouTube video is embedded in the page so you can listen and read the lyrics at the same time.

On FluentU, you can watch authentic Korean videos with interactive Korean and English captions created by language learning experts. There are many different topics and types of videos, like movie clips and trailers, inspirational talks, snippets from news programs, popular music videos and more.

You can toggle either language on or off, or turn them both off to focus on your listening. If you come across any words you want to learn, you can save them to your flashcards or practice them immediately with the quizzes that follow each video.

Netflix is a surprisingly good resource for Korean television, dramas and films. Just about every Korean video on Netflix comes in its native Korean audio with English and sometimes Korean subtitles.

Beyond the fact that there are hundreds of movies and shows to choose from, what makes Viki so awesome for your Korean studies are the numerous subtitle options to facilitate your learning.

Each content is different, but you can enable or disable subtitles in English and a dozen other languages, including Korean. Another helpful feature is the simultaneous display of user comments, which often makes it easier to catch difficult portions of dialogue.

Improving your Korean listening skills is a step-by-step process. The best strategy is to incrementally target specific elements and set deadlines based on your goals. This will keep you moving consistently forward in your language studies.

Songs are a terrific tool to train your ear to detect common Korean sounds using repetition, rhythm and rhymes. In addition, songs are catchy and fun to memorize, making it easy for you to learn new vocabulary and practice pronunciation without much effort.

Start by watching with no subtitles and try to glean as much as you can from context. Then, use that precious replay button and display subtitles in English or Korean, or better yet, both. Watch it again, this time taking note of the vocabulary that caused you difficulty and that you wish to remember, and spend a week or more learning and reviewing it.
