korean is amazing!!!

[ThereIsNoJapaneseDNA]

It is an undisputed fact that the Korean writing system is the most creative and scientific one in the world.

It is also an undisputed fact that the Japanese writing system (hiragana & katakana) is only an abbreviation of Chinese. Koreans taught Japanese how to read and write since the 3rd century AD, but it was in the 15th century when the Korean writing system was invented.

It was already too late to educate the islanders.

And apparently hangul was created because koreans couldn't learn chinese characters properly and so korean script is called the stupid script in Japan. Don't know if it's true though. If characters are based on the shape of your mouth, then I guess hangul is for those who can't learn efficiently. To us who can comprehend anything, from the hardest math to particle physics, we don't need a child-easy script. I can learn anything!

Name all kinds of benefits, it still won't make a language better.

Lol, most scientific? How? What's wrong with latin? Works perfectly in computer programing and for pinyin input method. If you have an awful low self-esteem issues, then seek a psychiatrist. Don't create absolute nonsense about your language & script just to compensate for your tiny genitals or whatever bothers you. Just look at this video. It's made for ignorant audiences. Lol, brits would laugh at this. Just look at comedy shows on BBC and see how foolish you are.

@Kennychan222 ...but they live in australia. I'm sure if they haven't already integrated, learning english, for them, could be a short walk away. A few years in school and they could be very literate. I'm not trying to make them sound lazy but...it's right there, people!

@Kennychan222 i agree with steinerrite.

If they were learning it to preserve their native languages, maybe. But Korean isn't the best script to write English with - the English language is just phonologically too complicated to pound down with fixed sounds.

@veracuiz your 안녕 misses an ㅇ

[veracuiz]

I will show you guys Hangul. 안녀. 나는 베라쿠즈 란다....

[Steinerrite]

It anoyes me how they don't seem to not realise that there is a difference between a language and an alphabet.

[Steinerrite]

I don't think that it would help them. The Korean language has much fewer sounds than either English or Aboriginie so it's simpleness would be much reduced.
