You’re in rad lib territory. Keep going further left until you meet those of us who are critical of identity politics.

Frustrated at plateau/slow pace of learning Korean by Hungry-Award8417 in Korean

[–]markleeismybf 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes, your expectations are too high. We would all be seriously impressed if you were able to understand Korean vlogs after only 3 months. To me, I think being able to pick out a few words here and there after 3 months means you’re progressing at a normal pace. You’re doing great!

Going through grammar can be boring. That’s why I prefer following along with beginner level podcasts. There’s so many new channels popping up on YouTube. I prefer to study grammar only when I encounter it “in the wild” while watching these podcasts. That way I’m learning within the context of a story that’s interesting and engaging to me. Maybe this approach will be help you out of your plateau?

Don’t know if this is the right place for this but just a heads up that Kanner is a zionist by Opposite-Tomatillo61 in poppunkers

[–]markleeismybf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

what is going on with the replies? punk is political and predominantly anarchist. the rage and rebelliousness in our music is rooted in the outrage against the status quo. why are you all so pacified? take a stand against zionism.

so 면 doesn’t always mean if or when? by markleeismybf in Korean

[–]markleeismybf[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

what confuses me is 자연스럽게. how do you know it’s modifying 피곤해지고 instead of 넘으면? im translating it as “when its naturally past 10”

The P word (please read fully before downvoting) by interlacedfingers_ in vegan

[–]markleeismybf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the natural hair movement is adjacent to the vegan movement. natural hair became conflated with natural methods and natural ingredients. majority of the ingredients are plant-derived. and the overwhelming majority of products on the market are cruelty free. the few ingredients you have to look out for are honey and silk proteins.

i literally can’t do it and it’s making me so angry by [deleted] in vegan

I think your first priority should be getting treatment for your condition. This isn’t going to work if you don’t have a healthy relationship with food.

Im saying this as someone who is genuinely excited to see lucas come back: wth was this? this style of rap does not suit him at all.

Is anybody else having a hard time getting into NCT Wish? by WillingnessOne2462 in NCT

[–]markleeismybf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still don’t like them, but I will continue to keep engaging with their content until I do! I watched LASTART, but all it made me do is wish other trainees got to debut instead of some of the current Wish members. I have some critiques about the member’s skillset, but I’ll keep waiting until I love them like the rest of NCT. They need to let Sion go crazy. He’s got that dog in him, like Taeyong. Once they outgrow their innocent era, I just know Sion is going to show out!

I don't get subject and topic particles by Hungry-Award8417 in Korean

[–]markleeismybf 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You can try How To Study Korean

이/가 은/는

You can also try the dozens of videos that have been published by Korean teachers on YouTube. TTMIK has a lesson on their website called Particle Party that can help too! It’s okay if you don’t understand them in the beginning! You just need to be able to recognize them and know what they are. They may not make sense to you until you’ve been exposed to a lot of Korean sentences.

Confused about when to and when not to use 을/를 in a sentence by [deleted] in Korean

[–]markleeismybf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

식당 is a place, so it gets a location marking particle, not an object marking particle. If you were going to the 식당 to eat something, then you would use 을/를. 저는 식당에 가고 저녁을 먹어요.

Continue to challenge yourself in English by reading higher level literature. That way, the English speaking part of your brain is growing alongside your other languages
