== Basic Emotions ==
 
First, let's look at some of the most basic emotions in Korean:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Korean !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
| 기쁨 (gippeum)  || [kip̚.p͈ɯm] || Joy, happiness
|-
| 슬픔 (seulpeum)  || [sʌlpʰɯm] || Sadness
|-
| 화남 (hwalam) || [hwa.nam] || Anger, frustration
|-
| 불안 (buran) || [pul.an] || Anxiety
|-
| 무기력 (mugilyeok) || [mu.ɡi'.ljʌk] || Lethargy, apathy 
|}
 
Learning how to express these emotions can help you better understand Korean culture and help you communicate with ease. For example, Korean people often use the word "기쁨" (gippeum) to express happiness when they hear good news or spend time with loved ones.
 
To further understand how these words are used in context, here is an example dialogue:
 
* Person 1: 오늘은 왜 그렇게 우울한가요? (Oneureun wae geureohge uulhanga-yo?)  - Why are you so depressed today?
* Person 2: 요새 일 때문에 화가 많이 나요. (Yosae il ttaemune hwaga mani nayo.) - I've been getting frustrated because of work lately.
 
== Advanced Emotions ==
 
Now, let's take a look at some advanced emotions that are more difficult to express in Korean. These words can be useful to know if you want to express yourself more deeply, and they can help you better understand Korean culture.


{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
! Korean !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
! Korean !! Pronunciation !! English Translation
| 한숨 (hansum) || [han.sum] || Sigh (as a sign of frustration, sadness)
|-
|-
| 사랑해요 || sa-rang-hae-yo || I love you
| 미움 (mi-eum) || [mi.ɯm] || Resentment, bitterness
|-
|-
| 기쁘다 || gi-ppeu-da || happy
| 답답함 (dapdapham) || [dab.da.pham] || Frustration (a feeling of being stuck or trapped)
|-
| 떨림 (tteollim) || [t͈ʌl.lim] || Trembling (as a sign of nervousness)
|-
| 허전함 (heojeonham) || [hʌ.dʑʌn.ham] || Emptiness, loneliness 
|}
 
For example, you can use "한숨" (hansum) to express a sigh when you feel frustrated or sad in a certain situation. When you feel trapped or stuck, you can use "답답함" (dapdapham) to describe the feeling.
 
To further understand how these words are used in context, here is another example dialogue:
 
* Person 1: 무슨일 있어요? 표정이 허전해요. (Museun-il isseoyo? Pyojeong-i heojeonhaeyo.) - What's wrong? You look empty.
* Person 2: 살짝 미움이 들어가요. (Saljjak mi-eum-i deureogayo.) - I'm feeling a bit resentful.
 
== Cultural References ==
 
Koreans often use idioms and cultural references when talking about feelings and emotions. Here are some examples:
 
{| class="wikitable"
! Korean !! Pronunciation !! English
|-
|-
| 슬프다 || seul-peu-da || sad
| 어깨가 무거워요 (eokkaega mugeowoyo) || [ʌk.kɛː.ɡa mu.ɡʌ.o.wo.jo] || I feel burdened (my shoulders are heavy) 
|-
|-
| 놀라다 || nol-la-da || surprised
| 심장이 떨리다 (simjangi tteollida) || [ɕim.d͡ʑaŋ.i tʰʌl.li.da] || My heart is pounding (as a sign of nervousness)
|-
|-
| 신나다 || shin-na-da || excited
| 한턱 내다 (hanteok naeda) || [han.tʌk nɛː.da] || To put everything on the line (as a sign of determination or desperation) 
|}
|}


To use these words in a sentence, you just need to add the appropriate verb ending. For example, if you want to say "I am happy", you would say "나는 기쁘다" (na-neun gi-ppeu-da).  
Understanding these cultural references will not only help you communicate in Korean more effectively but also give you a deeper insight into Korean culture.


== Other Expressions ==
To further understand how these words are used in context, here is another example dialogue:


In addition to the words above, there are also some other expressions that can be used to express feelings and emotions. Here are some examples:
* Person 1: 다리가 저려요. 왜 그래요? (Dariga jeoryeoyo. Wae geuraeyo?) - My legs feel numb. What's going on?
* Person 2: 시험이 다가올 뿐이라고 생각하면 마음이 한턱 내려요. (Sihemi dagao-ul ppunira-go saenggakhamyeon maeumi hanteok naeryeoyo.) - If I think that the exam is coming soon, I put everything on the line.


* 아쉽다 (a-swip-da) - regretful
== Practice Makes Perfect ==
* 즐거워 (jeul-geo-weo) - joyful
* 슬퍼 (seul-peo) - crying
* 신기해 (shin-gi-hae) - amazed


These expressions can be used in the same way as the words above. For example, if you want to say "I am amazed", you would say "나는 신기해" (na-neun shin-gi-hae).  
To practice using the new vocabulary, try describing your current emotions or feelings in Korean. You can also have conversations with native speakers on the [https://polyglotclub.com Polyglot Club] website.

Take a moment to explore these relevant pages as you conclude this lesson: How to Say Hello and Greetings & Health Vocabulary.

Basic Emotions[edit | edit source]

First, let's look at some of the most basic emotions in Korean:

Korean Pronunciation English
기쁨 (gippeum) [kip̚.p͈ɯm] Joy, happiness
슬픔 (seulpeum) [sʌlpʰɯm] Sadness
화남 (hwalam) [hwa.nam] Anger, frustration
불안 (buran) [pul.an] Anxiety
무기력 (mugilyeok) [mu.ɡi'.ljʌk] Lethargy, apathy

Learning how to express these emotions can help you better understand Korean culture and help you communicate with ease. For example, Korean people often use the word "기쁨" (gippeum) to express happiness when they hear good news or spend time with loved ones.

To further understand how these words are used in context, here is an example dialogue:

  • Person 1: 오늘은 왜 그렇게 우울한가요? (Oneureun wae geureohge uulhanga-yo?) - Why are you so depressed today?
  • Person 2: 요새 일 때문에 화가 많이 나요. (Yosae il ttaemune hwaga mani nayo.) - I've been getting frustrated because of work lately.

Advanced Emotions[edit | edit source]

Now, let's take a look at some advanced emotions that are more difficult to express in Korean. These words can be useful to know if you want to express yourself more deeply, and they can help you better understand Korean culture.

Korean Pronunciation English
한숨 (hansum) [han.sum] Sigh (as a sign of frustration, sadness)
미움 (mi-eum) [mi.ɯm] Resentment, bitterness
답답함 (dapdapham) [dab.da.pham] Frustration (a feeling of being stuck or trapped)
떨림 (tteollim) [t͈ʌl.lim] Trembling (as a sign of nervousness)
허전함 (heojeonham) [hʌ.dʑʌn.ham] Emptiness, loneliness

For example, you can use "한숨" (hansum) to express a sigh when you feel frustrated or sad in a certain situation. When you feel trapped or stuck, you can use "답답함" (dapdapham) to describe the feeling.

To further understand how these words are used in context, here is another example dialogue:

  • Person 1: 무슨일 있어요? 표정이 허전해요. (Museun-il isseoyo? Pyojeong-i heojeonhaeyo.) - What's wrong? You look empty.
  • Person 2: 살짝 미움이 들어가요. (Saljjak mi-eum-i deureogayo.) - I'm feeling a bit resentful.

Cultural References[edit | edit source]

Koreans often use idioms and cultural references when talking about feelings and emotions. Here are some examples:

Korean Pronunciation English
어깨가 무거워요 (eokkaega mugeowoyo) [ʌk.kɛː.ɡa mu.ɡʌ.o.wo.jo] I feel burdened (my shoulders are heavy)
심장이 떨리다 (simjangi tteollida) [ɕim.d͡ʑaŋ.i tʰʌl.li.da] My heart is pounding (as a sign of nervousness)
한턱 내다 (hanteok naeda) [han.tʌk nɛː.da] To put everything on the line (as a sign of determination or desperation)

Understanding these cultural references will not only help you communicate in Korean more effectively but also give you a deeper insight into Korean culture.

To further understand how these words are used in context, here is another example dialogue:

  • Person 1: 다리가 저려요. 왜 그래요? (Dariga jeoryeoyo. Wae geuraeyo?) - My legs feel numb. What's going on?
  • Person 2: 시험이 다가올 뿐이라고 생각하면 마음이 한턱 내려요. (Sihemi dagao-ul ppunira-go saenggakhamyeon maeumi hanteok naeryeoyo.) - If I think that the exam is coming soon, I put everything on the line.

Practice Makes Perfect[edit | edit source]
