(Feel free to correct mistakes I make here ^_^)

* Korean
장년에 한국에서 남아공으로 옮깄니까 한국말로 오랫동안에 안 애기한다.그레서 저는 한국말하고 다른 언어들 연습
해야 돼서 이 일지를 시작하고 싶었다. 여기에 한국말하고 Xhosa말하고 네덜란드말로 쓸 거에요.

*Xhosa
Ndihlala eMzantsi Afrika ngaseKapa ngoku. Ndisazama ukufunda ukuthetha isiXhosa kodwa
kunzima gqitha. Kufuneka ndisithetha ndisibhale kakhulu kodwa abahlobo bam bancokola
ngesiNgesi gho! Ngoko ndiza kuzama ukubhala ngesiXhosa apha.

* Dutch
Ok, Nederlands is voor mij jaren geleden... ooit was het mijn eerste taal, maar
tegenwoordig kan ik beter uit de voeten met Engels, telkens wanneer ik Nederlands
probeer te spreken of schrijven kost het me meer moeite dan Engels. Dus om het niet te
verliezen wil ik regelmatig hier in't Nederlands schrijven, vooral omdat ik niet teveel
in het Afrikaans wil vervallen. Niet dat Afrikaans zo 'n slechte taal is, ik hoe gewoon
graag mijn Nederlands Nederlands en het Afrikaans Afrikaans...

* English translation
Since I moved from South-Korea to South Africa last year I haven't spoken Korean for a
long time. So I wanted to start this log to practice my Korean and some other
languages. I'll write here in Korea, Xhosa and Dutch.

I'm living in South Africa in Cape Town now. I'm still trying to study Xhosa but it's
very difficult. I need to speak and write it a lot but my friends always chat in
English! So I'll try to write in Xhosa here.

Ok, Dutch has been years for me... once it was my first language, but nowadays I'm
better with English, every time that I try to speak or write Dutch it takes me more
effort than English. So in order not to lose it I want to regularly write here in
Dutch, especially because I don't want to fall too much into Afrikaans. Not that
Afrikaans is a bad language, I just like to keep my Dutch Dutch and Afrikaans Afrikaans

*안 기한다

우리 언어 관심이 비슷해요. A shame the combined Team AB is too large for me to invite more
people into. Veel succes!

...응, "얘기한다" 맞아요~ ^_^ Ik zie het nu pas... typo

Maar Nederlands is op zich geen taal die ik heb geleerd, het is mijn moerstaal. Ik had
alleen altijd het idee dat ik m'n Nederlands nooit zou verliezen... Daar ben ik nu niet
meer zo zeker van... ^_^

장년 is actually spelled as 작년. You just wrote it as it is pronounced.

* Korean
가울이 돼서 요즈음 케이프타운에는 날씨가 좋아지고 있다. 왜냐하면 여기 요름은 너무너무 더웠다~ 어제 한국말
로 공부 다시 시착했다. TY Korean하고 이터넷
페이지
를 이용하고 있다. 그리고 한영사전 샀지만 Berlitz사전만 서점에 있었다... 이 사전이 안 좋아
해~ :(

* French
Cet dictionnaire n'utilise pas l'ordre des jamo, mais l'ordre des mots dans la
romanisation McCune-Reischauer... Cette comanisation est ancienne, ainsi c'est pas
facile d'utiliser pour moi...
Aussi, j'ai commencé d'étudier le Français :) c'était tres longtemps, je ne parlais pas
cette langue depuis huit ans! Ainsi, je fait trop de fautes et j'ai perdu beaucoup de
vocabulaire. S'il vous plaît, corrigez me fautes!

* English trans.
It's turning fall here so the weathing is getting good. 'Cause the summers here are too
hot. Yesterday I started studying Korean again. I'm using TY Korean and
an internet site. Also I got
myself a Korean-English dictionary. Unfortunately they only had a Berlitz dictionary at
the story, which I don't really like.

That dictionary doesn't use the jamo to order the words, but the Mc-R romanization,
which is an old system. So it's not that easy to use for me.
I also started to study French, it's been a while. I haven't spoken that language in
eight years time so I make a lot of mistakes and have lost a lot of vocabulary. So
please correct my mistakes ^_^

Practicing my introduction ngesiXhosa

Ndazalwa eKorea ngaseSeoul, kodwa ndakhulela eBelgium. Ndihlala eMzantsi ngoku, yaye
ndiphangela iNGO eKapa. Ndineminyaka eyi26. Ndizama ukuncokola neechomi zam ngesiXhosa,
ukanti ndiyaphazama... Ndifuna ukuthetha isiXhosa kahkhulu, ngoko ndisazama.

He-Jin's multilingual attempts are officially back from a holiday...

Namhlanje ngithetha isiZulu kancinci, kodwa ngisasifunda kahle ngalokho ngithemba ukuba ngizosikhumula kahle someday ^_^

Anyway, we'll see how long it lasts: my focus from now one is to up my French, and improve my Zulu... I'll take it from there after I manage to not get distracted this time...
