  Hi! This is my 첫번째 lesson~ whee~

You probably know how to say hi in Korean - 안녕 or 안녕하세요.
So, for the first lesson, let's learn some very simple sentences expressing your feelings.

I am hungry 나는 배고프다

-> NaNoon BaeGoPooDa.

In this sentence, 나는 means I (am). However, 는 can be removed in a casual conversation. 나는 can be abbreviated to 난. And 배고프다 means hungry.

So, 나는 배고파, 나 배고파 and 난 배고파 actually have the same meaning.

-> NaNoon BaeGoPa, Na BaeGoPa, Nan BaeGoPa

You can applying this pattern to other cases,

I am sad   나는/나/난    슬프다  SoolPooDa
I am happy   나는/나/난  행복하다  HaengBokHaDa
I am thirsty   나는/나/난  목마르다  MokMaRooDa
I am tired   나는/나/난   피곤하다  PeeGonHaDa
I am sick   나는/나/난    아프다  AhPooDa
I am joyful   나는/나/난   즐겁다  JoolGupDa
I am lonely   나는/나/난   쓸쓸하다  SoolSoolHaDa
I am nervous   나는/나/난  떨린다  D(accented)ullReenDa

However, there are (of course) some exceptions like,

I am angry   나는/나/난  화났어  HwaNattSeo

Literally translating, 화났어 would be 'I got angry' 화나 can be used too, but this expression is awkward and rarely used.

There will be another Korean lesson concerning simple grammar biggrin
And I'll post another lesson on expressing your feelings.
첫번째 means First. hehe I hope this lesson could help you heart
Please leave comments for any questions/suggestions!!

This lesson is really good. =D

I think you should work on conjugating verbs, grammar or the Korean alphabet next. =]

I have a hopefully simple request.

Could you show how to pronounce the words when you're making these tuturials... For example: 안녕하세요 - annyoung haseyo

I really have to work on my pronunciation, and if it's not too much work, I would greatly appreciate this. ^^
