Korean Language and Infinitive Form
Lesson 1:
감사함니다 (gam-sa-ham-ni-da) this is the polite way to say thank you, another way could be 고맙습니다
I have also learned the colloquial way to say thank you, this is what you normally hear on dramas and movies especially when people of the same age level are speaking with each other 고맙다 (go-map-ta) or 고마워 (go-ma-wa)
One of the commonly used phrase too is ‘I am sorry’. The formal polite way to say this in hangul is 미안합니다 (mi-an-ham-ni-da) or 죄송합니다 (jwe-song-ham-ni-da). If you have been watching movie with subtitles, you will likewise hear this word which corresponds to sorry too, 미안해 (mianhae which almost sounds like bi-ya-ne).
-Word for the day is 답장 (dap-jang) which means reply.

Lesson 2:
I have learned that there is specific way to great people at work. Now it seems that the 안녕 greetings are the generic ones. There is specific greetings for people in the workplace or if you are in s similar situation (case where there is work to be done).
수고하습니다 (su-go-ha-sum-ni-da) is saying hello to someone who is working
수고하세요 (su-go-ha-se-yo) is saying goodbye to someone who is working
수고하겼어요 (su-go-ha-kyo-sso-yo) is like saying thank you for helping me or well done
-Word for the day 집 (jip) which means house.

Lesson 3:
After knowing how to greet people the 한극 way, it is just logical to know how to introduce yourself. This is just the basic way:
제 이름은 이에요. This is similar to saying ‘My name is . You can just simply put your English name written in alphabet but if you know how to write your name in 한글 it would be better. Like my name Jane is spelled 제 인. So i can introduce myself as 제 이름은 제 인 이에요 (Je i-reum-un Je-In-i-eyo). 제 can be replaced with 제가 (je-ga) or 나는 (na-neun) which both means ‘I’.
Word for the day 문 (mun) which means door.

Lesson 4:
After the usual greetings and introductions there are some common phrases that we use almost everytime we are in that situation. It is usual to appreciate meeting someone regardless if a new friend

    Building and maintaining relationships is one of the most important parts of communication, without relationships the work setting would be a very unhappy place. New relationships can begin when new children, parents or staff join the setting. It can start with simple communication, such as a friendly smile or a general hello. This first communication will differ depending on who you might be communicating with. For example, if I was meeting a new child for the first time I would go down to their level and say hello to them with a high and enthusiastic voice and give them lots of smiles.
