Default Learning the Local Language

I was wondering how many people speak the language where they live?

Although I realized early on that the more Korean I could speak, the less stress I would have venturing outside of my apartment, I really have not learned enough compared to the number of years I've lived here.

For anyone interested in studying Korean FOR FREE without venturing beyond the computer, I recommend Sogang University's website. Not all of the activities work on my Mac, but all of the reading and listening activities do, as well as the scroll over translations, vocabulary and grammar lessons with good English explanations. My favorite game is the "dancing sentence game" where you are flashed parts of a sentence while a stick man dances to music, when the music is over and you choose a matching sentence.

Anyway, it is a great site that starts with the alphabet and teaches through to intermediate level. Try it! You'll like it!
