Counting in KOREAN is Soooo… 🫨

Just write number down

How long does it take to learn Korean? I've always wanted to learn but Idk how long it takes and Google keeps giving me different answers 💀💀💀

Why be compliceted is so fun for languages....JUST PICK ONE.
Maybe the one with your name in it eh Korea?

It doesn't make sense but that tally is so fricking cool

they do tallies like that in japanese to

Try Japanese lmao, Korean will be the easiest counting system you've seen.

Its usually easier to do math in your native language, but then Ive seen some Germans say when they started knowing english well enough to do math they switch to that. In german numbers are wierd, Ive never seen someone with english as thier first language to math in German.

There's a biological reason why learning numbers in another language is notoriously difficult. Diction and communication activate separate regions of your brain, and numeracy activates another region. It's basically teaching yourself another language, too! 😂

In Japanese they have different ways of counting for everything😭😭

Japense people over here with like, 100 different counting systems

as someone who has been studying Japanese for years!! This is fine

I think i saw how Lisa made/ almost made a mistake in counting languages at some show, and they laughed at her even so she's foreigner. Typical korean MCs attitude 🙄

Interesting. I lived in South Korea for two years and I never once saw someone tally numbers like that...

😅Meanwhile, Manila got 3: English, Filipino, And Spanish numbering systems

When I was learning Korean I picked up sino quicker than native just bc I know Chinese. Ngl I Learned Korean and passed my classes using Japanese and Chinese to help me remember.

Using the chinese character instead of IIII is genius!

일제 시대부터 정자로 해서 그렇게 된건데 다들 모르넹...
일본이 통치할때 학교에서 그리배운거.

Wow that going to be hard but determination we can all do it

Bro that’s confusing

Try counting in Japanese, haahaha

And i thought french counting was confusing to remember

1 gay 2 gay 😎

Us Chinese use 正 for tallying too!

Its the same in japanese and chinese. Im out here learning or using the languages and im like, why cant we just say the same word for numbers

That's a load of baloney. As a korean living here, what he's saying is not true
Plus, he's got the phrase wrong,
You can just say
"김치찌개 하나주새요"
Kimchi jiggae hana ju se yo
Please give me one kimchi stew

crying why does it have to be so difficult💔🤕

Haha though I’m Japanese and not Korean, I’ve definitely hear your struggles with counting! InJapanese, depending on what you are counting, the noun and number would CHANGE! So for example, if you are counting a orange you would say i (one) ko (replacement noun for small objects) but this would change when going to different things! like counting cars you would say ichi (one) dai (replacement noun for vehicles). Though this is easy for Japanese people to grasp, I feel bad for the people who had to learn all of this. Have fun learning Korean! I think it will definitely be worth it knowing how amazing Korean cuisine is 🤭

I am Korean and I just realised that we call times mixing korean and chinese letters for the numbers 😂 It just so natural for Koreans but it could seem weird to people learning Korean. I don’t know the rules either😂

But you have countable and uncountable , and measure things in miles, yard and foot😅

Sorry Koreans but this is kinda dumb 😅

The numbers and the batching are the most difficult to learn in Korean

this is the thing im struggling with the most while learning korean, its so difficult!!

Back in the international school, my Korean friend and I didn’t know how to count like westerners when taking a vote. So we both counted with 正 on the whiteboard. Everyone in the class gave us confused faces.

So intriguing, I love your videos! Choosing a language to study and South Korea is on my bucketlist in the next few years :) stoked

I wonder if it's on the same level as the global world using numbers and roman numbers

Yes the counting and two numbers system does my head in. Time and money in Korean ,area my brain work very hard.

I just saw this the other day in the Solo Leveling anime and just thought “what sort of wacky ass tally marks are those” lol

This dude only lived for three years and already sounds so native

after I found out counting in French actually requires doing math at the same time I just gave up honestly

It's a kind of thing like one two three and first second third thing which can be confusing to non native speaker

It’s not that hard… I learned it with proper use cases within a month of living there.

Oh we count like that too! 😄 Its a really cool way to count!

I may be biased, but numbers in Chinese is quite easy, like 1is one horizontal line, 2 is 2 lines & 3 is 3 lines, but after it changes like 4 is written 四 & 5 is written 五

Uh... isn't it same for English and other countries...?

No idea what was just said 😂

Omg thank you bro I thought I was tripping because kdramas often have a theme around people turning the legal age/18 or 19 and I would always hear "열여덟" (Yeol yeo-deol(b) or "열아홉" (Yeol ah-hobh) and I was SO LOST as to what numbers they was using and why they aint say "싶팔" (sip-pal) or "싶구" (Sip-gu) or something instead omg 😭

Yeah, Chinese tally is the same as Korean with using 正

tbh i overcame this problem and ive been studying for 3 years😭

Also, big numbers aren't separated in 3 digits but in 4 digits. Ex. they don't do 1.000.000 but 1.0000.0000

same as japan. . still cant memorized everything
