I am giving you a whole bunch of useless random words - I admit - and you haven't even properly learned how to say hello. I am giving you, what you can read. Please stick with me through a couple of more lessons and you soon will find yourselves reading Korean at ease.

anyeong hasseyo means hello btw. and the answer is the same.

아내 = a-nae = wife

내리다 = nae-ri-da = to get off (a train/ bus)

ㅁ= m

매다 = mae-da = to bind a tie (so far the worst word I taught you:D)

다리미 = ta-ri-mi = iron (for pressing clothes)

One more vowel:

ㅓ= aw

머리 = maw-ri = head

One last vowel and then we'll call it a day.

ㅔ = e/ay ( like the last letter in pianoforte)

어디에 = aw-di-ay = where (to) (direction)
