School, Learning Korean, and Yellow dust

I have finally moved into my new classroom. Yay it has like wooden laminate floors. It echos and when the children make alot of noise it gets really noisy. Oy vey. I am not a fan of this yellow dust nonsense that's floating around the air. Apparently it is sand from the Gobi desert and pollution. YAY !? So people walk around with surgeon masks on their faces. I have yet to get my mask but I will. It causes allergy like symptoms to me. It's horrible. I don't like it. I have been taking Korean lessons the past few weeks. I am learning to read but it is difficult to remember the characters. My dad (Hi Papi I miss you ) has expressed interest in learning Korean sooo I figured why not put it up on my blog so anyone who wants to learn korean.

Here are the letters Consonants

ᄀ- gee yok (g) ᄂ- nee un (n) ᄃ- dee gut (d) ᄅ- ree ul (r or l) ᄆ- mee um (m) ᄇ- bee up (b) ᄉ- see ot (s) ᄋ- ee ung (ng only when it's at the bottom) ᄌ- jhee ut (j) ᄎ- chee ut (ch) ᄏ- kee ut (k) ᄐ- tee ut (t) ᄑ- pee up (p) ᄒ- hee ut (h)

Vowels

ᅡ- a ᅣ- ya ᅥ- uh ᅧ- yeo ᅩ- o ᅭ- yo ᅮ- oo ᅲ- yoo ᅳ- eu ( like ewww) ᅵ- ee ᄈ- strong b ᄍ- strong j ᄄ- strong d ᄁ- strong g ᄊ- strong s ᅢ- ae ᅤ- ya ( like the ya in yay) ᅦ- e ᅨ- ya ( like the ya in yay) There is no alphabet song unfortunately. The only song I know is combining the consonants with the first vowel a.
