짜증나 = jja cheung na = annoying.. it's more polite to say compared to ssibal, pyungshin and seki/saeki/saekki(?) (not sure about the right writing ^^; )
원하다 = won ha da = i want (formal)
원해= won hae = i want (informal)

Hangul's Today : 아이구 (AIGOO)
Thus the exclamation 아이구 "Aigu!" is used, with varying tonality, in keening for a dead parent, or expressing sympathy for another person's bad news, but it is also used on spilling a cup of coffee, or to express exasperation on just missing a bus, amazement on meeting a long-lost friend, or fury at losing one's job.
아이구(AIGOO) means something like "oh" or "oh no" or "oh my!" It's a Korean exclamation. could also means something similar to 'geez' Mostly used as 'geez'
아이구(AIGOO)and 아이고(AIGO)are different. In grammar, aigo is right. but people lives near Seoul used to say 아이구(aigoo). Seoul people prefer to say "우(oo)" with every end of sentence. is it funny?

nanun hangsang norul sarang handa = ok
na hangsang norul sarang hae = better sounds for me ^^
soulmate = 소울메이트
o to ke= how = what am I gonna do = 어떻해
u can pronounce this word "해" as "he", right?
사랑해 = sa rang he ; he, or hae
but when you say this word "어떻해"
the pronounciation is changed
어떻해 = o tok ke ; not he ; it's more like ke
dizzy T.T
영어 할 줄 아세요? = I will always follow you
나 너를 가도록 해주겠다 = na norul ka do rok hae ju get ta = i'll let you go
better word --> 널 보내주마 = nul bo ne ju ma = i'll let u go
could also mean = i will kill you
bo ne ju get so = 보내주겠어means 1. I will let you go
2. I will let you down
3. I will kill u
the meaning of that sentences could be changed in many different ways
너 죽을래 = no ju ku lae means do you want to die?
죽을래?= 뒈질래?= 골로갈래?=세상 다 살았나?=눈에 보이는게 없나?

Hangul's Today : Saying Happy Birthday ( 행복한 생일 )
How to sing the happy birthday song in korean?
생일축하함니다
Seng il chook ha ham ni da~
생일축하함니다
Seng il chook ha ham ni da~
사랑하는 ............ (put your friend's name here)
Sa rang ha nuen .............
생일축하함니다
Seng il chook ha ham ni da~
Ah! and I've found something about Korean habit regarding this song.
Koreans are ardent clap-and-sing people. People love to clap along with the beat at concerts (even sometimes when it’s inappropriate, as I witnessed occasionally at the Jeonju Sori Festival), and when they sing together in a group in informal social situations, clapping is de rigeur. The thing is, the clapping is almost always done in a 2/4 or 4/4 rhythm, and usually on the downbeat…When westerners sing “Happy Birthday”, the downbeats come like this: Happy Birth–day to you, Happy Birth–day to you, Happy Birth–day dear Bob–by, Happy Birth–day to you.
But when Koreans sing it, they clap on every second beat, which puts the downbeats like this: Seng–Il Chuk–ha ham–ni da! [2], Seng–Il Chuk–ha ham–ni da! [2], Sarang ha–neun Chull–su–eui, Seng–Il Chuk–ha ham–ni da! [2].

Hangul's Today : Saying Cute (귀여운)
I supposed to write it "귀여운 에노 누나", not "귀여워 에노 누나" at the bottom of my email.. so when i wrote "귀여워 에노 누나" dongseng said it doesn't make sense for him, as it is supposed to be said to another person, not to myself.
Basicly...
귀엽다고 하지 말아요 -> gue yuop da go ha je mal a yo => please don't say that I'm cute귀여워 -> you can say this word when you want to express something (person or animal or etc.) is cute or lovely. can be used by itself
귀여운 -> if there is something that is cute or lovely and you want to say it's cute, you should say the something (that is noun) with this word "귀여운"(that is adjective)
Example :
cute baby -> 귀여운 아기(baby : a gi), you can't say only 귀여운 and also "귀여운 에노 누나" -> in this sentence i used that word with "에노 누나" which is noun
귀엽다고 하지마 also same meaning as "귀엽다고 하지 말아요" but you can use this kind of short expression to the people whose the age is same as you or younger than you.
* Cute : 귀여운 (gui-yo-wun)
* Aren't I cute : 내가 귀엽지 (nae-ga gui-yop-ji)
* Pretty : 예뻐 (ye-ppo)
* Aren't I pretty : (내가 예쁘지) (nae-ga ye-ppeu-ji)
그럼 담에 또 봐요. 잘 지내요~~
( gu rum dam e tto ba yo. jal ji ne yo).
Means: See you next time. take care~~ :P
안녕히 계세요
tapi ga munafik dong, kadang gw pernah punya feeling just like that, kalo lagi bete bertumpuk ama seseorang...want to kill someone so bad, but can't coz you are just a normal, humble person? haha~~ why don't you express it in korean words... paling ga, kalo di ucapin di Indo, banyak yg ga ngarti.. en kalo di ucapin di Korea, bisa bikin orang terkaget2 haha~~
안녕히 계세요 <-- complete expression for that, but for fun you can use like this 안녀이 계세 except for "요" meaning is same but for fun~ don't need to say 요 if you want to make a joke..you can say only that but don't say to senior or old people :P
초딩이가? = cho ding e ga? = haven't you grown up yet?
돌았나? <--are you crazy? ; 미쳤나 same meaning
초딩이가? = are you a student in elementary school?
Haha~~ better off before someone want to kill me :P i have more bad words. but not gonna put here :P :P
Chingu (친구)
gyo ja = female
여자 = female
여자친구? a girl friend ; but could be also just female friend
to be absolutely a "girl friend" better just use 애인 <--can be used for both sex
example : " is he your 애인? " means is he/she your lover or beloved person?
애인 <-- easier... and more like a lover coz 여자친구 <-- can be also just a friend
namja chingu iso? = do you have a bf?
우린 친구 = we are friend = wu rin chin gu
친구 = chin gu = friend
wu ri = we
우린 = wu rin = we are
wu ri chin gu ga? wu rin chin gu ji <-- can be both a asking question and replying question, it depends on what kind of question is the accent of the last word, and it depends on the accent that what kind of question it becomes. aiyooh... quite difficult to express T.T

Korean Alphabet (Hangul)
Links:Most English speakers think Korean has thousands of characters, like Chinese, but it actually has a very simple and logical alphabet, which you can learn in a few minutes. The alphabet was invented in 1443 during the reign of the Great King Sejong. There are 14 basic consonants and 10 basic vowels.
Letters that have similar sounds also have similar shapes, so it is easy to learn.The letters are grouped into syllable blocks containing an initial consonant (which may be silent or double), one or two vowels (below or to the right), and sometimes a final consonant (below).
Now, see if you can "decode" these words:

Hangul's Today : Saying Goodbye
잘자 (Jal Ja) = Good Night
내일봐 (Ne Il Ba) = See You Tomorrow
Or can also say:
다음에 애기 또 하자 = talk to you later~
When we are saying goodbye, if you leave from your friend's house, you should say "안녕히 계세요" and when you are the host of the house and your friend is leaving, you should say "안녕히 가세요"
But to make it easier just say it shortly: 잘가~~ Bye
Or 잘 있어(jal it so) when you're leaving the house
Hmm..For example : Now I'm in your house, and you've invited me to your house so I'm in your house now. And now it's time for me to go back home so I say before I leave "안녕히 계세요" But if you're my friend then I don't need to be that polite/formal, so I can just say 잘 있어(jal it so). and you can say "안녕히 가세요"
안녕히 가세요 = BYE 안녕히 계세요 = BYE ; same but the situation is different
Ok. I'm dizzy now ^.^'

Hangul’s Today: The Counting Systems
하나, 둘 , 셋, 넷~ 일, 이 , 삼, 사~ 첫째, 둘째, 셋째, 넷째~ etc..

한놈 = 1
두시기 = 2
석삼 = 3
너구리 = 4
etc

about 사랑 = Sarang = Love
사랑해(요) = Sarang hae(yo)= I love you (using 'yo' = more polite)
나는당신를사랑해요 = Na neun tang shin reul sarang hae yo = I love you
아직도 난 널 사랑해 = Ah-jik-do nahn nuhl sa-rang-hae = I still love you
나의 일번 = my number one = na-eh il bun
너는 나의 전부야 = you are my everything = na neun na e jun bu ya
나는 당신을 사랑하기 때문에 = because i love you = na neun tang sin ul sarang ha gi tae mun e
나는 항상 너를 사랑한다 = i always love you = na nun hang sang no rul sarang handa
그쪽이 좋아요 -> gu jjok e jo a yo > I like you/I'm interested in you/ I've got an interest in you/you've come to my mind
니가 좋아 -> ni ga jo a -> this sentence is just same as the one "그쪽이 좋아요" -> I like you
Saranghae, mostly used between two lovers, or parents say to their children.
Saranghaeyo, is a general form for I love you in Korean.
Saranghabnida is the modest form for I love you.
But for young generation, just use "Saranghae"..
