Did you know this about the Korean language?

• Korean has its own writing system, called Hangul. King Sejong invented Hangul in the 15th century. Before that, Koreans wrote using Chinese characters, also known as Hanja.
• Korean is spoken by almost 80 million native speakers worldwide.
• There are two different numbering systems in Korean: Sino and Native. When learning Korean numbers, you need to know both numbering systems. Both systems are used depending on the context. Native is used for numbers below 99, for ages, times and when counting things. Sino is for numbers above 99 and is used for dates, minutes, distances and currency.
• If you look at the shape of the letters in the alphabet, they mimic what your tongue does to pronounce them.
