[Shakamuni]

I have nothing against korean culture, but I sincerely prefer 一,二,三,...,十九 (ichi, ni, san... shūkyū or yī, èr, sān,..., shíjiǔ). Do not feel offended!

[rangaprasadable]

[pharmaferoz]

thanks 

[xoxosally]

I work better and pronounce better when I can see the pronunciation in english. Like, 1= hana 2=dul etc....

[Sammlya]

Haha the sushi caught me off guard :D

[vkvkvk1219]

@Sammlya It's not sushi. It's a Korean food called kimbab.

[alveyEMD]

i feel like a kindergardener :3

[VictimOfBoredom]

Love the Tchaikovsky in the background. <3

[BusyAtomdotcom]

@VictimOfBoredom Wow, thank you so much! you are the first one who realistically commented about this music.

[blainevanity6]

@BusyAtomdotcom good choice of music....classical...it helps me memorize...

[firerip101]

9 sounds like "butthole"

[SuperSnowbunny21]

yey! i have them all memorized^_^

[CaroLeeNhaa]

Thank you for sharing this! It helped a lot ^^

[KelsiMontana123]

eh? i though 4 is 사? 0.0" Paiseh, i heard from Hankyung, Hehe... From SGB

[tokee1234567]

@KelsiMontana123 Korea has two different number systems. Sa is sino-korean and Net is Native Korean

[Cami123ist]

@KelsiMontana123 사 is in sino-korean numbers

[PopCaNdii33]

Number 19 Sounds lik "Your a hoe?" xD Sorry...Just wanted to point that out!

[frce68]

for money, we use Chinese sys. not Korean sys.(x) . ex) 12,500 (일)만 이천 오백 [o], 만 두천 다섯 백원[xx]

[tokee1234567]

@frce68 it's called Sino-korean.

[cariahbel]

man! i went to and learned them there.

[SimplyMeVictoria]

when talking about age, which system is used? also, which is used for money?

[frce68]

@SimplyMeVictoria << for age, both system is used. ex) 1 year : han(a) sal =il se, 2 : du(l) sal = yi se, 3: se(t) sal = sam se, 4: ne(t) sal = sa se, 5: daseot sal=o se ......10: yeol sal=sip se...

but, we usually use korean sys. for daily conversation. ex) How old are you? - 14 yrs old (몇 살입니까? - 열 네살입니다. (o), 십사세 입니다.(△)

[SimplyMeVictoria]

@frce68 thanks, you helped a lot! :)

[KeiJarasee]

which one do most korean people use when talking? basic or?...

[tokee1234567]

@KeiJarasee they use both kinds of numbers. each has its own purpose, so you should learn and master both

[miriellourraineaque]

its easy.,.,i thought its hard to learn.,.,

im loving hangul now

[superlovekiller]

too fast ~.~

[squeakysquiddles]

why is there this pronunciation, and also another?

[nycary]

Why are there two counting systems in Korean?

[MisookSensei]

HAHAHAHAH! DELICIOUS KIMBAP!

[Mutsusho]

is the same as for the Japanese..no?

[tokee1234567]

@Mutsusho no. korean and japanese may sound similar in some respects but they're not completely the same

[Mutsusho]

@tokee1234567 Jajjajajaj, thank you; but I meant for the numbers!!!

1-ichi, 10-juu,11: 10+1= juuichi,is it? 

[tokee1234567]

@Mutsusho well for sino-korean it works the same way , but not native korean numbers

[iam21111]

1. Latin (mono di tri tetra ..) = native-korean (hana dul seht neht)

2. Arabian (one two three..) = sino-korean (il i sam..)

[Cinnder22]

Can I use this on my website if I give you full credit, Also can I use the second video?

[mizztastay]

thanksss! i had to learn 1-10 for taekwondo so i can pass my testt! thanks so much!!

[any1pia]

I have a question. What's with this sino-korean and native-korean?

[tokee1234567]

@any1pia sino-korean. influenced from chinese words/letters. every sino korean will also be able to be written in the corresponding chinese letter.

it's used for professional terms and also in complex combinatory terms + as prefixes.

native-korean - real native korean words

both are equally used in korean languages, but for harder words you need to know sino-korean meanings

(ex namu - Native Korean for Tree = Mok - sino-korean for tree)

[tokee1234567]

@any1pia

(ex. most korean names are made with sino-korean, so even if koreans have similar names their meanings are all different)

(tree - namu [native] = mok [sino]) (carpenter = moksu) mok -tree/ su- hand [sino] = people who work with wood with hands.

the confusing thing is one letter can mean so many different sino-korean meanings, but you don't need to know too much... learning chinese letters with their corresponding sino-korean can help you know like all of it but it's not necessary

[any1pia]

@tokee1234567 thanks a lot for ur reply.

that was truly educational.

thanks again

kamsahamnida

[guitarfreak1008]

what now i cant count to ten in 2 language

[tokee1234567]

@guitarfreak1008 you need to know both sino-korean and native korean words to really learn korean. sadly that's just reality.

sino-korean numbers have an easy rule to help ppl memorize.

native korean numbers can take ppl some time though

[guitarfreak1008]

@tokee1234567 um thanks but i wasnt trying to learn how to count in korean i just saw this vid and clicked on it

[IHelpNexon]

another way of memorizing hana(hana montana) dool set(ready set) net(rhymes with set) Dasut Yasut llgoup(e go) Yudul(Yo Duh) Ahop(Ah Hope) Yual(Yo add l to Yo)

[bigbang7931]

@tokee1234567 thanks

[XxTruSelfxX]

I love love your voice kkkkk

But I have a question why is the s "ㅅ" symbol use and is pronounced like t ?

[kirbysir675]

sounds like vietnamenese

[bigbang7931]

Which one do most Koreans use?sino or native?

[tokee1234567]

@bigbang7931 you use both simultaneously

sino korean for normal math computation, time (minutes seconds days)

native korean for counting objects, telling time (only hours and months) and age

[MrThatguy1312]

I know this already (i do tae kwon do so i learned it...)

[ariolatorres]

i was watching a korean variety show and i noticed that when they say "10" they said something like eeship,and when they said "8" it was pal or something like that...why is that?

[tokee1234567]

@ariolatorres there are 2 different ways to say numbers in korea. one is sino korean and one is native korean. this vid is about native korean numbers. what you heard on the show is sino-korean.

[missapril93]

i want some kimbap XD

[princessterrylu]

the 9 sounds like the Spanish word for garlic lol

[sinnerinheaven85]

@princessterrylu

lmao ajo didn't think about that

[SweetLove5263]

20 is dulyeol right right? :P

[ChuisAchang]

@SweetLove5263 nope 20 is unique

20 is seumul

[aggressiveyou]

@hazelmarucut

thanks so much for the romanization^_^

can't read hangul that quick but im learning it..

tysm:)

[NadiaAISS]

why is three and four seht and neht when there is no ㅍ or ㄸ???

[BusyAtomdotcom]

When 'ㅅ' is placed as an ending consonant as in '셋' or '넷' it sounds close to 't' NOT 's'. It sounds 's' only when 'ㅅ' is placed as an initial consonant.

[Feilanna]

@BusyAtomdotcom How come? That's a little silly isn't it? :/

[CrystalEye3]

Very useful video. It seems a quite simple system, it resembles much chinese number system..eleven=10-1 ;twelve=10-2, ecc...much simpler than western systems.

[CrystalEye3]

Thanks for posting!

Gamsahamnida.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

@CrystalEye3

Thanks for watching.

Happy New Year!

[CrystalEye3]

Tahnk you for making!!;)

Happy new year to you, too!

[ImIwilliamImI]

I learned to count to 20 in korean when I trained Tae Kwon Do.

[olegsnkcclaw08]

how do i write korean in computer??

[tokee1234567]

if you have a mac computer, you can just have the language settings adjusted so that you can have the korean keyboard. for pc's you would have to get a korean patch and download it, and you need a cd for that

[CrazyNative4]

you say that very well !

[ttmkh]

I want to know why the ending is pronounced with a t sound and not an s i.e 4 is nes but pronounced net. Why?

[kababayanchica1123]

When the "ㅅ" (s) symbol is placed underneath(in the bottom half of the syllabic block) it makes a "t" sound

Hope this helped

=]

[ttmkh]

감사합니다~~ It did. Thanks.

[hazelmarucut]

1-hana 2-dul 3-set 4-net 5-daseot 6-yeoseot 7-ilgop 8-yeodeol 9-ahop 10-yeol 11-yeol hana 12-yeol dul 13-yeol set etc etc..

[DjtC0nMeMaj]

sorry can you write how to pronounce it ?

pls ! i want to learn it.

[illurbe]

while watching korean shows, i heard people just say, wu sa sum yir yi for 54321. im confused

[toppytangy]

hahahahaha delicious kimbap

so random!

[moongurl58]

mmmh i was distracted by the sushi

[natisr94]

how come htere are 2 ways of counting in korean? i have a korean friend that coutns like: el, e, sam, sa, oh, yook, chill, pal, cu, ship. Why is that? is it formal and informal?

[riri2chan]

the one used in video is called Native Korean.

one you mentioned is called Sino Korean.

Native Korean is used to count things, Sino Korean is used to count time.

[natisr94]

thx! ^_^

[Aiiiyo]

uh?thats totally similar with Chinese...

[hansja112]

el e sam sa ... is: 1st 2nd 3rd 4th ...

hana dul set net is: 1 2 3 4 (one two three four)

[tokee1234567]

the one on this video is for counting material things, age, time, months and things like that. they involve actually counting things out. the other one like you said "il ee sam sa" is mainly used for math.

[CrazyNative4]

you are too damn cool ! have a nice day ! :)

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Oh, thank you so much. You have a nice day too ^__^.

[11scorpionz11]

i dono Y but i find the video funny. but its helpful, thanks!

[11785]

Hi, It's me again. I got kinda confuse with the counting numbers and as I've said on my first comment I am referring for some books. In the book I'm reading it goes like this, 1= il / hana 2= iy / twoul, 3= sam / set, 4= sa / ret, 5= oh / tasaut, etc. why is it like this? Can you pls tell me why? Thanks. More power. ^_^

[JMudblood]

i just read an explanation for what your asking about, there are two systems for korean numbers, the native korean which is hana..etc and the sino-korean (apparently chinese influence) which is il..etc for more understanding i will send you the video link that i got this from

[KoreanSimplyPut]

There are 2 counting systems in Korean.

To count things you say [object] [number] [counter].

[Counters] may take this system he is teaching, or the one you've read. ... you have to learn which counters choose which number system individually :(

ex.

개 한 마리 1 dog (this system)

이 분 2 minutes (other system)

두 달 2 months (this system)

구 층 9 floors (other system)

커피 다섯 잔 5 cups of coffee (this system)

Hope that helped!

[emya08]

thanks so much for the video!! i had doubt with 10 to 19 but is easy if you know 1-10, thank you!!

[legolink53]

thanks for the help!

[superyesung20]

is 1- eel? and 2- e 3-sam? 4-sa? is tis corrct?

[aprenspan]

well, this are sino-korean numbers

in this video the numbers are native-korean numbers

Korean has 2 number sistems

^^

[KoreanSimplyPut]

Korean counting is hard, there are two counting systems. So yes, you are right. He is teaching the KOREAN numbers, the other set are the CHINESE (sino-korean) numbers.

So sadly, you have to know when each is used (if you are familiar with Asian languages, there are 'count words').

Cow 1 [animal counter]

is how you say 1 cow (소 한 마리). Some 'count words' use the system you're talking about, some the one he's talking about.

You have to learn them one by one :(

Hope that helped!

[jeffery91642862]

Does anyone know the difference between Sino-Korean numbers and Native-Korean numbers? And which of them is more often used in Korea?

[aprenspan]

Well sino-korean numbers are used to recite sequential numbers (eg phone numbers) and minutes when you tell time.

Native-korean numbers are used to count things in sequential order

[kababayanchica1123]

i think native korean is used more....*shrug*

[KoreanSimplyPut]

Sino = Chinese

Ask a Cantonese person to say 1 2 3 4, Sino Korean is the same (w/out tones :))

You have to know which 'counters' use which system. Asian languages have a funny counting system.

[Object] [number] [counter]

Some counters like Sino Korean (월 month names, 년 years, 초 seconds, 층floors)

Others, Native. (잔 cups of, 명 people, 마리 animals, 시 o'clock)

so lots of memorizing! D:

Native Korean only goes up to 99 though.

Hope that helped!

[jkrdsr]

And others counters that use Native Korean numbers: 잔(盞) ~ cup of ~, 명(命) ~ people, 시(時) ~o'clock 시간(時間) hour(s) 입 lea(f/ves) 분(分) person(s), minute 권(券) counter for books, ~ volume(s) of ~ 번(番) time(s), 달 month(s) 층(層) level(s), floor(s) [note: Designates floor, when used with sino-korean number. E.g. First floor, Level 1, etc. ]

[DongHaeLove86]

감사합니다.

The 합 consonnant below is 'm' or 'b' or 'p'?

And which one, Gamsahamniada or Komapsumnida is formal/informal?

And is Mian Hae the informal of 'Sorry'?

Pootak Hamnida..

감사합니다.

[KoreanSimplyPut]

ㅂ is a b (mid word) or a p (start of word) sound. BUT ㅂ directly beforeㅁ (m) or ㄴ (n) makes a M sound.

so 감사합니다 Kamsahamnida.

Similarly, ㄷ/ㅈ/ㅌ/ㅊ/ㅅ/ㅆ sound like ㄴ before ㄴ or ㅁ and ㄱ/ㅋ sound like ㅇ before ㄴ or ㅁ. (한국말 sounds like 한궁말 and 듣는다 sounds like 든는다)

Hope that helped!

[katsarewild]

cool, I got this. I knew the numbers, but I wasn't for sure with the pronunciation at first, but I got it now, thanks!

[KDramaGurl]

That's Sino-Korean.

This one is Native-Korean(recommended).

[xSelinxKaulitzx]

thats the north korean number style,

this video is showing the south korean style,

[KILLA23456789]

sumuel

[Cujothechosen1]

hahaha, we counted pressups in Korean back when I was like 9 and hearing "hana" made my arms hurt.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Yes, I agree. In fact, a lot of Korean words are coming from Chinese word and pronounced in similar ways. I used to have fun finding those things.

감사합니다.

[bigbangseungri]

is it ilpog or ilgop??

[BusyAtomdotcom]

It is ilgop. Please see a responded video. It has English too. Thank you.

감사합니다.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Yes, that's called Sino-Korean style number system. Please check out the responded video. I kind of explained about two different number systems.

감사합니다.

[Ayumura96]

i' m still confused on how to pronounce it

[BusyAtomdotcom]

mm... I understand.

Do you have any suggestions to make it more approachable and not confusing?

I was think to make a revised video with Romanization.

Please let me know. Thank you . 감사합니다.

[Ayumura96]

how about write it english style- in a way pple would understand like 1 is hana 2 dool (dul) 3 set 4 net 5 tasol (daeseot).... 6 yosol (yeoseot 7 igope (ilgop) 8 yoedeol (yodo) 9 ahop (ahope) 10 yeol (yo) i understand how to pronounce it now

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Yes, I guess that will do it.

Thank you for suggestions. 감사합니다.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Hi Ayumura96, a new video about counting numbers is up. I couldn't come up with familiar English so just used Romanzi that is supposed to be Korean standard. Hope it can help you.

감사합니다.

[InuYasha790]

aho? aho means stupid or idiot in japanese.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

Oh, sorry it is "ahop".

Not aho as in "aho aho man".

감사합니다.

[blessedrocker211995]

why r ther 2 ways for counting in korean? isnt it like il ee sam sa...? when do u use each way?

[BusyAtomdotcom]

There are two Korean number systems one is mainly for counting small numbers, hours, O'clock, and so on. The other system (il, ee, sam, sa...) is used in many places from telephone numbers to numbers in Math class. I kind of summarized their uses in our main site. You can click from the info in this page. 감사합니다.

[poopypie111]

il, ee, sam, sa is also used for dating and months eg. il hwal= january, ee hwal= february, sam hwal= march, so on.. whereas the one that is being taught here is used for counting objects and or people, this one just has to be memorized, compared to the first type which has a rule:

seeb= 10, 11= il seeb, 12=ee seeb, 13= sam seeb ...

[resolutethings]

No, 11 = seebil 12 = seebee 13=seebssam... "ee seeb" is 20. "sam seeb"=30.

[BusyAtomdotcom]

감사합니다.

[kenken1969]

Gawd! So fast!

[shelli10may]
