About the Book

Korean Grammar: The Complete Guide to Speaking Korean Naturally covers all the basic sentence structures, verbal forms and idiomatic expressions taught in the first two years of a college-level Korean language course.

It is uniquely designed for the following learners:

Students taking a Korean language course
Self-study learners or those studying Korean with a tutor
Heritage learners who wish to speak Korean more correctly
Those who previously studied the language and wish to review and brush-up
Anyone wanting to improve their Korean language ability

Each chapter provides clear grammatical explanations with charts and examples for each construction, showing how it is used in various contexts. All Korean words and sentences are given in both Korean Hangul script and Romanized form, with English translations to assist beginning learners. Fundamental concepts like honorifics, formal and informal speech styles, verb endings and complex sentence constructions are all presented in simple and clear terms to make these constructions accessible to learners at every level. Exercises at the end of each chapter reinforce the learning process.
