State your learning goals for this week and how you went about accomplishing these goals.
My learning goals for this week was to build up my vocabulary. I began with words for color and used colored flash cards to reinforce the meaning of a word. On top of that, I also learned words for transportation, everyday items, and some foods. I learned some of these terms through apps like Duolingo and through other online resources. I’ve found digital resources to be the most helpful because they are interactive and mix visual and auditory components. When using these types of resources, I can read the word, hear the proper pronunciation, and see a representative image.
I also learned about the two counting systems used in the Korean language, which are Sino-Korean and native Korean. To learn them, I read about them, wrote them repeatedly, and practiced using them during class time. I think that I use Sino-Korean numbers more commonly than the native Korean numbers, so my understanding of the native system is not as strong as my grasp on the other. I will have to work more on the native system going forward, especially since the native system isn’t as regular as the Sino-Korean one.
