+ | [[Hanja]] is the Korean name for Chinese characters. More specifically, it refers to those Chinese characters borrowed from Chinese and incorporated into the Korean language with Korean pronunciation. Since a lot of Korean words are derived from Chinese, learning 한자 can be like learning prefixes, suffixes and root words. This section will introduce to you important 한자 characters, some of them which are not beginner level characters. | ||
+ | Please note: - means there is no Hanja character for it, i.e. 동네 <[[洞]]->. There is no Hanja character for 네, - is not to be confused for 일 ([[一]]). | ||
− | + | Also note that some chinese characters have two ways to pronounce it. For example, '[[女]]', whch means 'female' can be pronounced as both '여' and '녀' in Korean. But as you can see from the examples, 여 is only used when it comes as the first syllable of a word, while 녀 is only used in the middle of a word or at the end. This is a special grammatical rule called '두음법칙' or '머리소리 법칙' and North Korea doesn't follow this rule (nor do they use 한자 anymore). | |

Introduction
Hanja is the Korean name for Chinese characters. More specifically, it refers to those Chinese characters borrowed from Chinese and incorporated into the Korean language with Korean pronunciation. Since a lot of Korean words are derived from Chinese, learning 한자 can be like learning prefixes, suffixes and root words. This section will introduce to you important 한자 characters, some of them which are not beginner level characters.
Please note: - means there is no Hanja character for it, i.e. 동네 <洞->. There is no Hanja character for 네, - is not to be confused for 일 (一).
Also note that some chinese characters have two ways to pronounce it. For example, '女', whch means 'female' can be pronounced as both '여' and '녀' in Korean. But as you can see from the examples, 여 is only used when it comes as the first syllable of a word, while 녀 is only used in the middle of a word or at the end. This is a special grammatical rule called '두음법칙' or '머리소리 법칙' and North Korea doesn't follow this rule (nor do they use 한자 anymore).
Days of the week
Let's start with the days of the week, since it's basic. Just focus on the characters 日, 月, 火, 水, 木, 金, and 土.
Sunday 일요일 Sun day 日 (일) - the sun |
Monday 월요일 Moon day 月 (월) - the moon |
Tuesday 화요일 Fire day 火 (화) - fire |
Wednesday 수요일 Water day 水 (수) - water |
Thursday 목요일 Tree day 木 (목) - tree |
Friday 금요일 Metal/gold day 金 (금) - gold, metal |
Saturday 토요일 Earth day 土 (토) - soil, earth |
