| ㅇㅋ | OK | |
| ~욜 | ~요일 | Abbreviation used in combination when expressing a particular day.
|
| ㄳ / ㄱㅅ | 감사합니다 | Thank you |
| ㄳ / ㄱㅅ | 가속 | Accelerate - used on some message boards to artificially increase the number of replies or keep the thread alive. (I don't think any Korean would use ㄳ this way.) (My mother tongue is Korean and I've never seen any Korean using ㄳ this way...maybe in little and minor websites but mostly not) |
| ㄱㅊ | 괜찮아요 | It's ok |
| ㅅㄱ | 수고하세요 | Keep up the good work. |
| ㅊㅋ | 축하해요 | Congratulations |
| ㅎㅇ | 하이 | Hi |

| 어케 | 어떻게 | How |
| 대체 | 도대체 | ~the hell (i.e. who the hell ...) |
Text Message Style
Since many young people are so used to typing text messages in a different way, typing proper Korean can sometimes make the person sound serious or angry. Many young people use a style that is considered more cute. However these should not be used in formal conversation, people who you have a formal relationship with and elders (cases vary).
| Style/form | Comment |
|---|---|
| A/V + ㅁ/음 (instead of A/V + (으)면) | This is not to be confused with the real grammar pattern A/V + (으)ㅁ which turns a adjective or verb into a noun.
|
| Simple spelling | Examples:
|
| 응 substitutions | Using 엉, 웅, 앙, 옹, 읭, 잉 instead of 응 (low form of 'yes'). These forms are supposed to be more 'cute.' |
| Adding ㅇ as the 받침 to words. | Young people often add ㅇ as the 받침 to words at the end of sentences without a 받침.
Examples:
|
| Substitutes for ~요 | ~여, ~염, ~엽, ~욘, ~용 , ~효 = Substitutes for ~요 at the end of sentences.
Examples:
|
| ~셈 | Substitute for ~십시오 & ~세요.
Examples:
|
| 삼, ~3 | Substitute for ~습니다 and 세요. 삼 is the pronunciation for the Sino Korean number three, so 3 can be used as well.
Examples:
|
| Using ㅅ instead of ㅆ (as 받침) | Examples:
(Note: This is usually just a typo.) |
| Spelled as pronounced | Some words are spelled the way they are commonly pronounced.
Examples:
|
| 쥐 instead of 지 | Sometimes 쥐 is used instead of 지 to sound more cute.
Examples:
|
| 음 words | Words like 다음, 마음 become just 담 and 맘. |
| ~긔 instead of ~고 | Sometimes ~구 is used instead of ~고 to sound more cute.
Examples:
|
| 쩝 | Noise used when 겸연쩍을 때 |
| 풉 | Noise used for laughter, used when 어이없을 때 (especially when girls are) |
