Hey all! Lately I've become interested in learning Korean, and am gradually starting to become familiar with some of the writing and basic words, but I'm really beginner level and am looking for some good resources. One thing I think would help while also strengthening my Japanese skills would be to find books or websites (the latter is probably better) that are written in Japanese and focus on the Korean language, since Korean and Japanese seem much more similar than Korean and English. Anyone know of anything good I should look up? Resources aimed at a younger audince might be a bit better for the time being, due to my very limited knowledge of Korean and kind of basic understanding of Japanese, but I am fine with anything.

Websites: 1) http://www.hanguk.jp/ ...click on the ハングル button at the top of the page to get to the lectures that are organized by level. You might have to register on the site to watch stuff, I can't remember, but it's free. 2) http://korean.nomaki.jp/site_j/study.html ...example sentences for grammar points and words. Click on also, there you can see a lot of kanji and words with their pronunciations in Korean and Japanese. There are links to other sites on the bottom half of the page also. 3) http://dic.naver.com/ ...This is a dictionary, but you can get plenty of Japanese<->Korean example sentences here too. 4) http://tatoeba.org/eng/home ...This isn't for just Japanese and Korean, but they have thousands of example sentences in tons of languages. 5) http://docs.google.com/document/d/1kSm64FxXmtAWgPImHXBsZ6npqP6VctYDzDlhBDrxGPE/edit?usp=sharing ...This is a Google document I made. The first half is basic conversational question & answer stuff and the second half is sentence patterns. There's English, Japanese, Korean, and French on there for all of the conversational sentences and English & Korean for most of the sentence patterns. I never got around to adding Japanese translations to all the sentence pattern sentences, but I checked the Korean sentences with native speakers, so they should all be good. 6) http://sites.google.com/site/nazonoikikata/han-geul/iknow/jc-1000-s1 ...More example sentences. These are the first 100 sentences on iknow/smartfm, if you know that site for Japanese and Chinese. I translated the first 100 sentences to Korean, also maybe 50 or so of the 100 sentences in step 2. I checked with natives for all of those sentences also, so they should be fine. Books: 1)からまでべるマスターハングル ... a good grammar book with lots of example sentences. Look for it on amazon.jp, you can click the "このする" button to get an idea of what it's like. 2) リーディング (for beginner), リーディング (for intermediate) ...I don't have the beginner book, but I have the intermediate one and it's really good. Basically there are fairy tales and on the side of the page there are Japanese translations for some of the harder words. After each story there is an explanation section for some of the grammar points in the stories. There is also audio. Other: 1) Anime and other tv shows in Japanese with Korean subtitles. Have the video on one side of your screen and maybe the Naver Korean<->Japanese dictionary up on the other side of your screen. Try looking for simpler words in the Korean subtitles that you might understand, like simple sentence connectors, cognates, or words you have recently studied. Pause the video if you see a word like that, look the word up on Naver, click print screen on your keyboard to capture the video on one side of your screen and the definition/example sentences on Naver, paste the screen shot in Microsoft paint and save it as whatever the word was. Later you can go back and look at the pictures like a slide show to review the words. For intermediate and advanced levels instead of looking for words you vaguely know or words you found in some word frequency list, you should be able to switch to looking for the words you don't know. If you don't know the Korean title for an anime or show, just look it up on wiki and switch to the Korean page. To find an episode just Google something like 나루토 344화.  화 =

Altexia I have searched for similar apps like renshuu for several other languages, and so far I haven't found anything close, renshuu is one of a kind. However I have found one that I liked for korean but it no longer seems to be available.

I would test out several different apps until you find one you like, there are a lot of them, but I have yet to find one that really breaks everything down.

Sorry about that! I wish we had time to do more, but we spend 100% of our time (and more) on renshuu :)
