Did You Know? (3)

Did you know that I recently found out that the word that is consistently translated as raccoon in Korean is actually referring to a raccoon dog which is a completely different animal (though, admittedly similar in appearance)?

    

Did you know that Koreans use scissors as a common utensil with dinner (quite useful)?



Did you know that the Korean language has a "P" (ㅍ) and a "B" (ㅂ) sound, but they are used differently at different places in the syllable?

Did you know because of this Korean English students sometimes say, "I like to eat crap" (crab)?

Did you know that this letter, `ㄹ`, sounds like a combination between `r` and `l`?
Did you know that because Korean lacks a definitive difference between `r` and `l` there are many strange things you can hear Korean students say?
Did you know that Koreans love to eat lice (rice)?
Did you know that in the U.S. and Korea this year is erection (election) year?
Did you know that in Seoul you can see the famous Han Liver (River)?

Did you know?

Did you know that the word for year and the word for bitch are the same in Korean?
Did you know that one of the words for 18 and the f-word equivalent sound almost exactly the same in Korean?
Did you know that said f-word equivalent sounds like the English word `civil` to Koreans because they have no `v` sound in their language?
Did you know that this blog post is finished because I don`t want to write anymore on my handphone (the Korean for cell phone)?
One more...did you that I am starting to forget which words are Konglish and which words are proper English?
