How Alex got interested in trying to learn Korean.
One day Alex and I walked down to the little store on the corner. Alex knows the word 'konnichiwa', which means hello in Japanese. He asked me if the owners of the store were Japanese. He wanted to say hello in their language, if they were. I didn't know. I told him they might not understand him, but he could see what happened.
As it turned out, he received blank stares in response to his greeting. I explained that Alex wanted to say hello in their language and asked how to say it. The lady told us their language was Korean and pronounced the word/phrase for us.
On our next visit to the store, Alex said hello to them in Korean. The lady was surprised he had remembered the word, and now told him how to say 'thank you'. When we returned, Alex didn't remember how to say it, so she told him again.
Walking home that day, we talked about learning more Korean words and how it might be easier to remember if we could see them written down. This turned into a search on the internet and the discovery that the Korean alphabet is an easy one to learn.
I don't know how far or how fast we will go with this language, but as we are learning, we will share our experiences here.
