Beginners Korean 2:  Students will learn to express opinions, descriptions and events in Korean. The course will also focus on grammar, learning different verb conjugations and formulating complex phrases in Korean. Students will continue to learn how to read and write Korean alphabet (han-geul) with [   ]. By the end of this class, the students will master reading a simple Korean book, and will be able to gain fluency in everyday conversation.

Korean is the official language of both North and South Korea. The language is also one of the two official languages (the other is Standard Mandarin) in neighboring Yanbian, China. Worldwide, there are around 80 million Korean speakers, including large groups in the former Soviet Union, China, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Canada, Brazil, Japan, and more recently, South Africa and the Philippines.

The genealogical classification of Korean is debated. Many linguists place it in the Altaic language family; some others consider it to be a language isolate. Korean is agglutinative in its morphology and SOV in its syntax. Like Japanese and Vietnamese, Korean has borrowed much vocabulary from Chinese or created vocabulary on Chinese models.
