Introducing yourself is not just about sharing your name; it's about opening the door to communication and building relationships. In Korean culture, greetings and introductions carry a weight of respect and formality, so understanding how to navigate this part of the language is crucial.


Before we dive into introducing ourselves, let's review some basic Korean greetings.
=== Lesson Structure ===


* 안녕하세요 (annyeonghaseyo): This is the most common way to say "hello" in Korean. It is a formal greeting that can be used in any situation, whether you are meeting someone for the first time or talking to a friend.  
1. '''Key Vocabulary''': Words and phrases for introductions.

Let's dive into the essential vocabulary for introducing yourself in Korean. Here are some key terms you should know:

{| class="wikitable"


== Introducing Yourself ==
! Korean !! Pronunciation !! English


The most basic way to introduce yourself in Korean is to say your name. Here's how:
|-


* 제 이름은 [name] 입니다 (je ireumeun [name] imnida): "My name is [name]."
| 안녕하세요 || annyeonghaseyo || Hello


For example, if your name is Sarah, you would say:
|-


* 제 이름은 사라입니다 (je ireumeun Sara imnida).
| 제 이름은 || je ireumeun || My name is


When stating your name, it's common to put the word "제 (je)," meaning "my," in front of it.
|-


Next, you may want to provide more information about yourself. Here are some common personal details that Koreans include when introducing themselves:
| 저는 || jeoneun || I am


* 나이 (nai): age
|-
* 직업 (jigeob): occupation
* 출신 (chulsin): place of origin


To include any of these details, simply add them to your introduction sentence. For example:
| ...살입니다 || ...salimnida || ...years old


* 제 이름은 사라이고, 25살이에요 (je ireumeun Sarago, isipsae iraeyo): "My name is Sarah, and I'm 25 years old."
|-


* 저는 학생입니다 (jeoneun haksaengimnida): "I'm a student."
| 직업은 || jigeobeun || My occupation is


* 출신은 미국이에요 (chulsineun Migukiraeyo): "I'm from the United States."
|-


Another way to introduce yourself is to simply say your occupation or major:
| ...입니다 || ...imnida || I am (formal)


* 저는 학생입니다 (jeoneun haksaengimnida): "I'm a student."
|-


* 저는 회사원입니다 (jeoneun hoesa-wonimnida): "I'm an office worker."
| ...에서 왔어요 || ...eseo wasseoyo || I am from ...


* 저는 경찰이에요 (jeoneun gyeongchaliraeyo): "I'm a police officer."
|-


* 저는 [major]을 전공했어요 ([major]eul jeongonghaesseoyo): "I majored in [major]."
| 만나서 반갑습니다 || mannaseo bangapseumnida || Nice to meet you


It's important to note that in Korean culture, it's common to ask people their age or occupation, as it helps establish hierarchy and social status. So don't be surprised if you get asked these questions when meeting new people!
|-
 
| 감사합니다 || gamsahamnida || Thank you
