I created FREE Korean language CHEAT SHEETS

I created a pack of SIX Korean language cheat sheets for beginning level learners, and today you can download them all for free. To get them, you’ll need to sign up for my Patreon, and they’re available on the free tier. There are also HD versions if you need, which are in any of my paid tiers. The SD versions are suitable to be printed at high quality on a regular size piece of paper, and the HD versions are if you’d like to print them on a giant poster or something.

If there’s enough interest I’d like to make more of these, as I have several ideas I couldn’t finish this time because I only planned to make 6 for this first batch. Let me know what you think!

~겠거니 하다 “To Assume” | Live Class Abridged

~겠거니 하다 is a fairly common form that you’re likely to encounter, and it’s advanced level. In my most recent live stream on Sunday I taught about this form, which is used in a similar way as the form 줄(을) 알다, but with one big difference – it’s neutral. I also explained where this form comes from, and its literal meaning.
