What do you need to know about the structure of your target language? How will you acquire the knowledge you need? Do you think a reference grammar can be useful? Why or why not?
Korean has a variety of different grammatical structures you can use to build sentences. There are four main sentence structures that are commonly used but there are many different types of sentences you can use. One major difference between Korean and English is that in English you have the action before the object, but in Korean you often have the action after the object. While in English you would say, "I closed the door", in Korean people say, "I door closed". When learning Korean I think it is important to familiarize yourself with the different sentence structures of the language, and one way to do this is by reading and listening to people speak Korean. Having a quick reference guide for common Korean language structures would definitely help with this process, especially in the beginning while you are still getting used to it.
