Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Making Out in Korean is a fun, accessible and thorough Korean phrasebook and guide to the Korean language as it's really spoken.

Nan neoga joa michigesseo! Uri tto mannalkka? --(I'm crazy about you! Shall we meet again?) Answer this correctly in Korean and you may be going on a hot date. Incorrectly, and you could be hurting someone's feelings or getting a slap! Korean classes and textbooks tend to spend a lot of time rehearsing for the same fictitious scenarios but chances are while in Korea you will spend a lot more time trying to make new friends or start new romances--something you may not be prepared for.

If you are a student, businessman or tourist traveling to South Korea or North Korea and would like to have an authentic and meaningful experience, the key is being able to speak like a local. This friendly and easy-to-use Korean phrase book makes this possible. Making out in Korean has been carefully designed to act as a guide to modern colloquial Korean for use in everyday informal interactions--giving access to the sort of catchy Korean expressions that aren't covered in traditional language materials. As well as the Romanized forms ( romanji ), each expression is given in authentic Korean script ( hangul ), so that in the case of difficulties the book can be shown to the person the user is trying to communicate with. In addition, easy-to-use phonetic spellings of all Korean words and phrases are given. For example "How are you?"-- annyeonghaseyo? is also written as anh-nyawng-hah-seyo?

This Korean phrasebook includes: A guide to pronouncing Korean words correctly. Explanations of basic Korean grammar, such as, word order, questions, and formal vs. informal tenses. Complete Korean translations including Korean Script ( hangul ). Useful and interesting notes on Korean language and culture. Lots of colorful, fun and useful expressions not covered in other phrasebooks.
