Resources for learning Korean
Here are a few Korean study resources I’ve found useful over the years:
Memrise – especially the 1000 Most Common Korean Words list and the 1001-2000, 2001-3000, and hopefully someday the 3001-4000 Most Common Korean Words lists
OKCupid – okay, not a language resource exactly, but they say dating a native speaker of a language is the best way to learn it, and it’s certainly helped me!
Resources for research/writing about Korean language
Here is a continually expanding list of specific resources I’ve consulted when writing this blog:
Daum Dictionary – sourced from the Korea University Korean Dictionary. In Korean and English.
Korea Integrated News Database System – Includes a searchable database of Korean newspapers going back to 1990. In Korean.
Korean Word History search – A database of word origins from the National Institute of the Korean Language. In Korean.
Namu.wiki – A Korean version of wikipedia with a slightly subversive humorous streak. In Korean.
Naver Dictionary – sourced from the National Institute of the Korean Language. In Korean and English.
