Color coding system for studying essays in Korean

Color coding system for studying essays in Korean 🇰🇷 .
💚Green: underlining new vocabulary words. I transfer these into my vocabulary notebook after I've written the essay or article in full. The dotted green line connects a word to the word I don't know to help me understand its meaning in context .
.
💛Yellow: sentence connectors, grammar or more natural ways of expressing ideas. This is for things I can apply to my own writing to make it sound more native .
.
💖Pink: writing vocabulary meanings. No real reason for it to be in pink apart from the fact that the essay is written in black and I wanted it to stand out.

I had a lovely day catching up with old friends, enjoying the cooler weather, exploring Joburg city again and reminiscing about my life here a year ago. So grateful for this place and its people. I have such a soft spot in my heart for Johannesburg.

一年前の事務所の下にある本屋さん😍懐かしすぎる!

휴가때 공부가 제일 잘 되가는 것 같아🤓😍 아무 걱정 없이 열심히 집중 할 수 있으니까. 오늘은 디자인 기사를 읽으면서 새로운 단어를 배우고 있어. 🇰🇷 Hello from South Africa! I'm here for a short while to do some life admin and visit family. In between this, I'm making time to study for my upcoming Korean exam. There's a writing component, so I'm reading some articles that interest me and rewriting key phrases to get used to sentence structure and new vocabulary. Happy Valentine's day! 💓 💕 💕 How I take notes while reading articles:
Write the main sentences of the article on the left, write new words in black and definitions in blue on the right. After the article is done, I'll add the words into Quizlet and review the vocabulary. -

Good morning from South Africa! I'm back here for a short while to see family and do some life admin. 🇿🇦 After being away for a year and 9 days, I am surprised by how foreign yet familiar it feels. And don't even get me started on how fresh the air is here! It's so lovely to be back for a bit 😍🤓 #southafrica

Making mistakes and getting corrections 🇰🇷🤓 외국어를 배울때 원어민한테서 수정을 받는것이 얼마나 중요한지 충분히 강조할 수가 없어요. 저는 이제 한국말을 배운지 10년정도 됐지만 아직도 서툴고 외국인다운 실수를 많아 하는 편이죠. 어휘를 얼마나 많이 알든, 문법이 얼마나 좋든, 아직도 어색한 부분이 많아요. 이럴 때는 나를 도와주고 내가 쓴 글을 수정해줄 친구가 있는건 너무 소중하고 중요해요. 인스타그램에 아름다운 노트만 공유하는 사람이 많은데 실수도 보여줘야 된다고 생각해요. 완벽한 사람은 없죠!

I can’t overestimate how important it is to get corrections from native speakers when you’re writing in your target language. Even though I’ve been learning Korean since 2009 and feel comfortable communicating, my writing is often still unnatural. You might have perfect grammar and a good knowledge of vocabulary but your sentences just don’t “sound right”. That’s okay! Learning from native speakers is an excellent way to improve and see what kind of mistakes you regularly make.
I’m really happy to have a friend who I meet with often to take a look at my essays. I’m helping them with English, in turn. It’s difficult to find a native speaker who is willing to take time to fix your work, and it’s important to build trust with them first. I met my friend on a language exchange app, so from the start it was mutual that we would help each other improve our respective languages. That being said, make sure you aren’t using someone - build a solid friendship first!
And finally, be sure to take careful note of where your mistakes are so you can improve going forward. No use in getting your work corrected if you aren’t learning from it. Onwards and upwards! .

One of my favourite things about Singapore is the

One of my favourite things about Singapore is the local snacks (kueh). They're colorful, beautiful, tasty and diverse. There's something for everyone! My favorite is ang ku kueh 红龟粿 (red tortoise snack in Hokkien). It's mung bean or peanut paste with a glutinous rice flour skin served on a banana leaf. This specific store, Kim Choo Kueh in the East sells by far the best ang ku kueh I've tried yet. 😍🇸🇬 P.S exactly one year ago I arrived in Singapore! Time flies!!!! Here's to many more happy months on this beautiful tiny red dot. .
