Play and Learn Korean with Noun Town!

Games are always a favourite of mine to post about and share with everyone, and I have found another that I really like! Noun Town is a game that focuses on teaching many different aspects of language through gaming. In a 3D isometric world, you get to explore and literally add color back into the town by learning new things. The game is available for a lot of languages: Spanish, French, Japanese, Chinese, and of course Korean!

Whether you’re worried you will offend or want to impress people, learning Korean etiquette and the dos and don’ts is important! Because of Korea’s unique culture, they have its own etiquette rules and guidelines.

“Don’t Do It” in Korean ~지 마/~지 마세요 Grammar

You might have heard this grammar particle before if you’re a fan of Korean shows and dramas! There are a lot of “가지 마” (don’t go),  “울지 마” (don’t cry), “하지 마” (don’t do it) in Korean shows said by actors, and many more similar phrases. Adding the ~지 마 at the end of a verb is a simple and straightforward way to say “don’t do something” and really convey that urgency or emotion.
