+ # Lesson 3 — Native Korean Numbers 1–10 (하나, 둘, 셋...)
29
+
30
+ ## Introduction
31
+
32
+ Native Korean numbers (고유어 수사) are the original Korean counting words, distinct from the Sino-Korean numbers you learned in Lessons 1–2. You must know **both systems** and when to use each one.
33
+
34
+ Native Korean numbers are used for:
35
+ - Counting hours (o'clock)
36
+ - Counting people (with 명)
37
+ - Counting objects with most counters
38
+ - Ages (years old — with 살)

+ :::
65
+
66
+ ## Shortened Forms Before Counters
67
+
68
+ When native numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 appear **before a counter word**, they change to a shorter form:
69
+
70
+ | Standalone | Before counter | Notes |
71
+ |-----------|----------------|-------|
72
+ | 하나 | 한 | 하나 + 명 → 한 명 (one person) |
73
+ | 둘 | 두 | 둘 + 개 → 두 개 (two items) |
74
+ | 셋 | 세 | 셋 + 권 → 세 권 (three books) |
75
+ | 넷 | 네 | 넷 + 잔 → 네 잔 (four cups) |
76
+ | 20 | 스물 | 스무 before counter |
77
+
78
+ ## When to Use Which System
79
+
80
+ | Context | System | Example |
81
+ |---------|--------|---------|
82
+ | Hours (o'clock) | Native | 한 시 (1 o'clock), 두 시 (2 o'clock) |
83
+ | Minutes | Sino-Korean | 삼십 분 (30 minutes) |
84
+ | Age | Native + 살 | 스물다섯 살 (25 years old) |
85
+ | Money | Sino-Korean | 오천 원 (5,000 won) |
86
+ | Counting objects | Native + counter | 두 개 (two items) |
87
+ | Phone numbers | Sino-Korean | 010-5678 |
88
+ | Dates (year/month/day) | Sino-Korean | 삼월 이십일 일 |
89
+ | Counting people | Native + 명 | 세 명 (3 people) |
90
+
91
+ ## Comparison: Sino vs Native
92
+
93
+ | Number | Sino-Korean | Native |
94
+ |--------|------------|--------|
95
+ | 1 | 일 | 하나 (한) |
96
+ | 2 | 이 | 둘 (두) |
97
+ | 3 | 삼 | 셋 (세) |
98
+ | 4 | 사 | 넷 (네) |
99
+ | 5 | 오 | 다섯 |
100
+ | 6 | 육 | 여섯 |
101
+ | 7 | 칠 | 일곱 |
102
+ | 8 | 팔 | 여덟 |
103
+ | 9 | 구 | 아홉 |
104
+ | 10 | 십 | 열 |
105
+
106
+ ## Practical Examples
107
+
108
+ ### Telling the Hour
109
+
110
+ - 한 시 (han si) = 1 o'clock
111
+ - 두 시 (du si) = 2 o'clock
112
+ - 세 시 삼십 분 (se si sam-sip bun) = 3:30
113
+
114
+ ### Counting Age
115
+
116
+ - 스물다섯 살 (seu-mul-da-seot sal) = 25 years old
117
+ - 열 살 (yeol sal) = 10 years old
118
+
119
+ ### Counting Objects
120
+
121
+ - 사과 두 개 (sa-gwa du gae) = two apples
122
+ - 커피 세 잔 (keo-pi se jan) = three coffees
123
+
124
+ ## Key Points
125
+
126
+ 1. **Two systems**: Learn both — they cover different vocabulary domains
127
+ 2. **Shortened forms**: 하나→한, 둘→두, 셋→세, 넷→네 before counters
128
+ 3. **Hours use native**: Always say "한 시" (1 o'clock), never "일 시"
129
+ 4. **Minutes use Sino**: Always say "삼십 분" (30 minutes), never "서른 분"
130
+
131
+ ## Practice Exercises
132
+
133
+ :::exercise{id="ko-num-03-recognize" type="matching" title="Match Native Numbers" skill="word-recognition" objectiveId="obj-ko-num-03-recognize"}
134
+
135
+ **Question:** Match each native Korean number to its value
136
+
137
+ - 하나
138
+ - 다섯
139
+ - 여덟
140
+ - 열
141
+
142
+ **Answer:**
143
+
144
+ - 하나 = 1
145
+ - 다섯 = 5
146
+ - 여덟 = 8
147
+ - 열 = 10
148
+
149
+ **Explanation:** The native Korean numbers have no systematic pattern — they must be memorized individually, unlike the regular Sino-Korean system. Focus especially on 다섯, 여섯, 일곱, 여덟 (5-8) as these are less intuitive.

153
+ :::exercise{id="ko-num-03-say" type="fill-in-blank" title="Say the Time" skill="word-pronunciation" objectiveId="obj-ko-num-03-say"}
154
+
155
+ **Question:** How do you say these times in Korean?
156
+
157
+ 1. 3:00
158
+ 2. 7:00
159
+ 3. 10:00
160
+
161
+ **Answer:**
162
+
163
+ 1. 3:00 = 세 시 (se si)
164
+ 2. 7:00 = 일곱 시 (il-gop si)
165
+ 3. 10:00 = 열 시 (yeol si)
166
+
167
+ **Explanation:** Hours always use native Korean numbers. 세 is the shortened form of 셋 (used before 시). Note: 시 (時) means "hour/o'clock."

172
+
173
+ **Question:** You want to say "3 people." Which number do you use?
174
+
175
+ **Options:**
176
+ - 삼 명 (Sino-Korean)
177
+ - 세 명 (Native Korean — shortened form)
178
+ - 셋 명 (Native Korean — standalone form)
179
+ - 삼이 명
180
+
181
+ **Answer:** 2
182
+
183
+ **Explanation:** When counting people (명), native Korean numbers are used — and they take the shortened form before counters. So "3 people" = 세 명 (not 삼 명, not 셋 명). This shortened form rule applies to 1-4: 한, 두, 세, 네.

+ # Lesson 4 — Korean Counters (개, 명, 마리, 잔, 권...)
27
+
28
+ ## Introduction
29
+
30
+ Korean, like Japanese and Chinese, uses **counter words** (분류사, bullyu-sa) when counting. You cannot simply say "three book" — you must say "three **권** book" (세 권의 책). The counter changes based on what you are counting.
31
+
32
+ Korean counters go **between the number and the noun**, or after the noun with the number.

57
+
58
+ | What you're counting | Counter | Number system | Example |
59
+ |---------------------|---------|---------------|---------|
60
+ | General objects | 개 | Native | 두 개 (two things) |
61
+ | People | 명 | Native | 세 명 (three people) |
62
+ | Animals | 마리 | Native | 한 마리 (one animal) |
63
+ | Cups of liquid | 잔 | Native | 네 잔 (four cups) |
64
+ | Books/volumes | 권 | Native | 다섯 권 (five books) |
65
+ | Flat items | 장 | Native | 한 장 (one sheet) |

70
+
71
+ ## Sentence Patterns
72
+
73
+ Korean offers two ways to say "two cups of coffee":
74
+
75
+ **Pattern 1** — Number + Counter + Noun:
76
+ > 두 잔의 커피 (du jan-ui keo-pi)
77
+ > Two cups of coffee
78
+
79
+ **Pattern 2** — Noun + Number + Counter (more natural in speech):
80
+ > 커피 두 잔 (keo-pi du jan)
81
+ > Coffee two cups
82
+
83
+ Pattern 2 is more common in everyday Korean.

101
+ ## Shortened Native Numbers with Counters
102
+
103
+ Remember from Lesson 3 — native numbers 1-4 shorten before counters:
104
+
105
+ | Number | Standalone | Before counter | Example |
106
+ |--------|-----------|----------------|---------|
107
+ | 1 | 하나 | 한 | 한 개 (one item) |
108
+ | 2 | 둘 | 두 | 두 명 (two people) |
109
+ | 3 | 셋 | 세 | 세 잔 (three cups) |
110
+ | 4 | 넷 | 네 | 네 마리 (four animals) |
111
+ | 5-10 | same | same | 다섯 개, 여섯 명 |
112
+
113
+ ## Key Points
114
+
115
+ 1. **개 is the default**: When unsure which counter to use, 개 (general object) is usually acceptable
116
+ 2. **Most counters use native numbers**: 개, 명, 마리, 잔, 권 all pair with native numbers
117
+ 3. **Sino counters**: 번 (times), 분 (minutes), 층 (floors) pair with Sino-Korean numbers
118
+ 4. **Shortened forms**: 한/두/세/네 before counters (not 하나/둘/셋/넷)

+ ### How to Say the Time
59
+
60
+ **Structure:** [오전/오후] + [hour (native)] 시 + [minute (Sino)] 분
61
+
62
+ | Time | Korean | Romanization |
63
+ |------|--------|-------------|
64
+ | 1:00 | 한 시 | han si |
65
+ | 3:30 | 세 시 삼십 분 (or: 세 시 반) | se si sam-sip bun |
66
+ | 7:15 | 일곱 시 십오 분 | il-gop si si-bo bun |

68
+ | 6:45 AM | 오전 여섯 시 사십오 분 | o-jeon yeo-seot si sa-si-bo bun |
69
+
70
+ **Memory rule:** Hours = Native Korean (한, 두, 세...); Minutes = Sino-Korean (십, 이십, 삼십...)
71
+
72
+ ## Dates

92
+ ### Months of the Year
93
+
94
+ Korean months are simply numbers + 월 (no special names):
95
+
96
+ | Month | Korean | Romanization |
97
+ |-------|--------|-------------|
98
+ | January | 일월 | il-wol |
99
+ | February | 이월 | i-wol |
100
+ | March | 삼월 | sam-wol |
101
+ | June | 유월 | yu-wol |
102
+ | July | 칠월 | chil-wol |
103
+ | October | 시월 | si-wol |
104
+ | December | 십이월 | si-bi-wol |
105
+
106
+ **Special cases:** June = 유월 (not 육월), October = 시월 (not 십월) — these are the only irregular months.
107
+
108
+ ### Saying Dates
109
+
110
+ **Structure:** [Year] 년 [Month] 월 [Day] 일
111
+
112
+ Example: February 14, 2025 = **이천이십오 년 이월 십사 일**
113
+
114
+ ## Money — Korean Won (원)
115
+
116

150
+ | Convenience store snack | ~1,500원 | 천오백 원 |
151
+ | Budget lunch | ~8,000원 | 팔천 원 |
152
+
153
+ ## Putting It All Together
154
+
155
+ Typical conversation:
156
+
157
+ **A:** 지금 몇 시예요? (Ji-geum myeot si-ye-yo? — What time is it now?)
158
+ **B:** 오후 두 시 삼십 분이에요. (O-hu du si sam-sip bu-ni-e-yo. — It is 2:30 PM.)
159
+
160
+ **A:** 오늘 며칠이에요? (O-neul myeo-chi-ri-e-yo? — What date is today?)
161
+ **B:** 삼월 십오 일이에요. (Sam-wol si-bo i-ri-e-yo. — It is March 15th.)
162
+
163
+ **A:** 커피 얼마예요? (Keo-pi eol-ma-ye-yo? — How much is the coffee?)
164
+ **B:** 오천 원이에요. (O-cheon wo-ni-e-yo. — It is 5,000 won.)
165
+
166
+ ## Key Points
167
+
168
+ 1. **Time rule**: Hours = native (한, 두, 세), minutes = Sino (십, 이십, 삼십)
169
+ 2. **반 (ban)** = half past: 두 시 반 = 2:30
170
+ 3. **Months = number + 월**: June (유월) and October (시월) are the only exceptions
171
+ 4. **만 = 10,000**: Prices in Korea often involve 만 원 units

175
+ :::exercise{id="ko-num-05-time" type="fill-in-blank" title="Tell the Time" skill="word-production" objectiveId="obj-ko-num-05-time"}
176
+
177
+ **Question:** Say these times in Korean:
178
+
179
+ 1. 9:00 AM
180
+ 2. 4:30 PM
181
+ 3. 11:15 PM
182
+
183
+ **Answer:**
184
+
185
+ 1. 오전 아홉 시 (o-jeon a-hop si)
186
+ 2. 오후 네 시 반 (o-hu ne si ban)
187
+ 3. 오후 열한 시 십오 분 (o-hu yeol-han si si-bo bun)
188
+
189
+ **Explanation:** Hours use native Korean: 아홉 (9), 네 (4, shortened from 넷), 열한 (11 = 열+하나→열한). Minutes use Sino-Korean: 십오 (15). 반 is a shortcut for 삼십 분 (half past).

194
+
195
+ **Question:** Say these dates in Korean:
196
+
197
+ 1. March 3rd
198
+ 2. December 25th
199
+ 3. The year 2025
200
+
201
+ **Answer:**
202
+
203
+ 1. 삼월 삼 일 (sam-wol sam il)
204
+ 2. 십이월 이십오 일 (si-bi-wol i-si-bo il)
205
+ 3. 이천이십오 년 (i-cheon-i-sip-o nyeon)
206
+
207
+ **Explanation:** All date components (year, month, day) use Sino-Korean numbers. 십이월 = 12+월, 이십오 일 = 25th. The year 2025 = 이천(2000) + 이십오(25) = 이천이십오.

211

212
+
213
+ **Question:** You buy items that cost 3,500원 and 7,200원. How much total, and how do you say each price?
214
+
215
+ **Answer:**
216
+
217
+ - 3,500원 = 삼천오백 원 (sam-cheon-o-baek won)
218
+ - 7,200원 = 칠천이백 원 (chil-cheon-i-baek won)
219
+ - Total: 10,700원 = 만칠백 원 (man-chil-baek won)
220
+
221
+ **Explanation:** Korean prices decompose: 3,500 = 삼천(3,000) + 오백(500). The total 10,700 = 만(10,000) + 칠백(700). Note that once you reach 만 (10,000), you express thousands differently: 만칠백 = 10,700, not "십천칠백."
