@zh0puwxx0 "il" is Sino korean (more casual i suppose) which is similar to chinese (madarin or cantonese) and "hana" is Native Korean a more formal way but not common in casual korean

I've been studying Chinese for a few years, and I hope that one day I won't say 一(yi) for "one" instead of 일, because I keep confusing it with 이
>_< Anyone else notice how hard it is to remember the Korean keyboard unless one posts those little stickers on the keys?

I was wondering the same thing as @iFlushed is one preferred or more common than the other? (Sino Korean vs Native Korean).
I find Sino-Korean simpler than Native Korean! It's easier to count with too ^-^
Is Sino-Korean usually used for counting? Because I always hear it on TV shows. I don't hear Native Korean numbers spoken as often.
Thank you!!

@PlzBeMineAt705 I have never weighed which system is used more often but probably Sino-Korean is used more. But I think as far as counting goes (especially numbers smaller than 100) the native system is used more - but again it's my feeling.

For the number 6 in Sino-Korean, do you pronouce the k in 'yuk'? or is it said as simply 'yu'?

@ilazernerd It is Yuk in most cases. However when vowel comes right after "Yuk", for example "Yuk i" it will sound like "Yu Ki". In other words, the consonant "K" will be pronounced as a first consonant in the next vowel. I know it is far from "WYSIWYG" principle but that's one of the Korean pronunciation rule. I think similar example in English will be "Don't You" --> "Don Tyou".
