+# Lesson 1 — Greetings (인사말)
+
+## Introduction
+
+Korean culture places great importance on politeness and respect. The greeting you use reflects your relationship with the other person and the context. In this lesson, you will learn the essential greetings and polite expressions that form the backbone of Korean social interaction.
+
+Korean has a formal speech level (합쇼체 / -요 endings) and informal levels. For beginners and strangers, always use the formal level ending in **-요** (-yo).
+
+## Greetings

+::vocab-item{id="ko-jamsiman" word="잠깐만요" pronunciation="jam-kkan-man-yo" meaning="Just a moment, please"}
+
+:::
+
+## The Goodbye System
+
+Korean has **two different goodbye expressions** depending on who is leaving:
+
+| Situation | Expression | Use when |
+|-----------|-----------|----------|
+| 안녕히 가세요 | an-nyeong-hi ga-se-yo | You are staying; the other person is leaving |
+| 안녕히 계세요 | an-nyeong-hi gye-se-yo | You are leaving; the other person is staying |
+
+**Memory tip:** 가다 (ga-da) = to go; 계시다 (gye-si-da) = to stay/be. So 가세요 = "go safely," 계세요 = "stay safely."
+
+## Bowing in Korean Culture
+
+Like Japanese culture, Koreans bow when greeting:
+
+| Bow angle | Context |
+|-----------|---------|
+| Slight nod | Passing acquaintances |
+| 15-30° | Standard polite greeting |
+| 45-90° | Deep respect or sincere apology |
+
+When greeting someone, the junior person bows first and deeper. In business settings, exchange business cards (명함, myeong-ham) with both hands.
+
+## Formality Levels
+
+| Expression | Formality | Use with |
+|-----------|-----------|----------|
+| 안녕하세요 | Formal polite | Strangers, elders, workplace |
+| 안녕 | Casual | Close friends, younger people |
+| 감사합니다 | Very formal | Service, formal situations |
+| 고마워요 | Polite informal | Acquaintances |
+| 고마워 | Casual | Close friends only |
+
+## Sample Dialogues
+
+**Meeting someone new:**
+> A: 안녕하세요! (An-nyeong-ha-se-yo! — Hello!)
+> B: 안녕하세요! (An-nyeong-ha-se-yo! — Hello!)
+
+**Leaving a shop:**
+> Customer: 감사합니다! (Gam-sa-ham-ni-da! — Thank you!)
+> Shopkeeper: 안녕히 가세요! (An-nyeong-hi ga-se-yo! — Goodbye!)
+
+**Apologizing:**
+> A: 죄송합니다. (Joe-song-ham-ni-da. — I am very sorry.)
+> B: 괜찮아요. (Gwaen-cha-na-yo. — It's okay.)
+
+## Key Points
+
+1. **안녕하세요 is all-purpose**: Use it morning, afternoon, and evening with strangers
+2. **Two goodbye words**: 가세요 (they leave) vs 계세요 (you leave) — get this right
+3. **감사합니다 vs 고마워요**: Both mean "thank you" — 감사합니다 is more formal
+4. **Bowing is expected**: Even a slight head nod shows respect
+
+## Practice Exercises
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-01-greet" type="matching" title="Match Greetings to Situations" skill="situational-response" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-01-respond"}
+
+**Question:** Which expression fits each situation?
+
+1. Your friend is leaving your house
+2. You are leaving a restaurant
+3. The waiter brings your food
+
+**Answer:**
+
+1. 안녕히 가세요 (They are leaving → ga-se-yo)
+2. 안녕히 계세요 (You are leaving → gye-se-yo) — or 감사합니다 to the restaurant
+3. 감사합니다 (Thank you — polite/formal)
+
+**Explanation:** The key distinction: 가세요 = "please go well" (said to the person leaving); 계세요 = "please stay well" (said by the person leaving). Match the expression to who is moving.
+
+:::
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-01-polite" type="multiple-choice" title="Formal vs Informal Thank You" skill="polite-register" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-01-polite"}
+
+**Question:** You receive help from an elderly stranger on the street. Which expression do you use?
+
+**Options:**
+- 고마워 (gomawo)
+- 고마워요 (gomawoyo)
+- 감사합니다 (gamsahamnida)
+- 잘 가 (jal ga)
+
+**Answer:** 3
+
+**Explanation:** 감사합니다 is the most formal expression of thanks — always appropriate for strangers, elders, and formal situations. 고마워요 is polite but less formal. 고마워 (casual) would be rude to an elderly stranger. 잘 가 is a farewell expression, not a thanks.
+
+:::
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-01-produce" type="fill-in-blank" title="Complete the Dialogue" skill="word-production" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-01-greet"}
+
+**Question:** Complete these greetings:
+
+1. You see your Korean teacher in the morning: ___
+2. You accidentally bump into someone: ___
+3. Your friend is about to leave your apartment: ___
+
+**Answer:**
+
+1. 안녕하세요 (An-nyeong-ha-se-yo — Hello)
+2. 죄송합니다 (Joe-song-ham-ni-da — I'm very sorry) or 실례합니다
+3. 안녕히 가세요 (An-nyeong-hi ga-se-yo — Goodbye / Go safely)
+
+**Explanation:** 안녕하세요 is appropriate at any time of day with teachers and formal acquaintances. 죄송합니다 is the sincere apology for bumping into someone. 안녕히 가세요 is said when the other person is the one leaving.

+
+## Introduction
+
+In Korean culture, self-introductions (자기소개, ja-gi-so-gae) follow a predictable format. Learning this structure will allow you to introduce yourself confidently in formal and informal settings.
+
+The key grammar pattern is:
+> **저는 [X]입니다** (Jeo-neun [X]-im-ni-da) — I am [X]

+## The Introduction Pattern
+
+### Formal Introduction Structure
+
+1. **처음 뵙겠습니다** — How do you do? (very formal first meeting)
+2. **저는 [name]입니다** — I am [name]
+3. **[country]에서 왔습니다** — I came from [country]
+4. **잘 부탁드립니다** — Please treat me well
+
+### Example

+>
+> 저는 마이클입니다.
+> (Jeo-neun Ma-i-keul-im-ni-da. — I am Michael.)

+
+## Grammar Note: 는/은 (Topic Particle)
+
+Korean uses particles to mark grammatical roles. The **topic particle** 는/은 marks what the sentence is "about":
+
+- **저는** (jeo-neun) = as for me / I [topic]
+- Use **는** after vowels: 저는, 나는
+- Use **은** after consonants: 학생은 (as for the student)
+
+This is different from the subject particle 가/이, but for introductions, 는/은 is the standard choice.
+
+## Sample Conversation
+
+**A:** 안녕하세요! 이름이 뭐예요?
+(An-nyeong-ha-se-yo! I-reum-i mwo-ye-yo? — Hello! What is your name?)
+
+**B:** 안녕하세요! 저는 지민이에요. 어디에서 왔어요?
+(An-nyeong-ha-se-yo! Jeo-neun Ji-min-i-e-yo. Eo-di-e-seo wat-seo-yo? — Hello! I am Jimin. Where are you from?)
+
+**A:** 저는 미국에서 왔어요. 만나서 반가워요!
+(Jeo-neun mi-gug-e-seo wat-seo-yo. Man-na-seo ban-ga-wo-yo! — I am from America. Nice to meet you!)
+
+**B:** 저도 반가워요!
+(Jeo-do ban-ga-wo-yo! — Nice to meet you too!)
+
+## Key Points
+
+1. **저는 = formal "I"**: Use 저 (jeo) formally; 나 (na) only with close friends
+2. **입니다 vs 이에요/예요**: Both mean "am/is/are" — 입니다 is more formal
+3. **반가워요**: "Nice to meet you" — use this at first meetings (not 처음 뵙겠습니다 in casual contexts)
+4. **도**: "Also/too" — 저도 = "me too"
+
+## Practice Exercises
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-02-introduce" type="fill-in-blank" title="Complete Your Introduction" skill="word-production" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-02-introduce"}
+
+**Question:** Fill in the blanks for a self-introduction using your own name and country:
+
+저는 ___입니다. ___에서 왔습니다. 잘 부탁드립니다.
+
+**Answer:**
+
+저는 [your name]입니다. [your country]에서 왔습니다. 잘 부탁드립니다.
+
+Example: 저는 에마입니다. 캐나다에서 왔습니다. 잘 부탁드립니다.
+
+**Explanation:** This three-sentence structure covers the basics of any Korean introduction. 잘 부탁드립니다 is the formal "please treat me well" that closes the introduction — always include it in formal contexts.
+
+:::
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-02-ask" type="fill-in-blank" title="Ask About Someone" skill="pattern-application" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-02-ask"}
+
+**Question:** How do you ask these questions in Korean?
+
+1. What is your name? (informal polite)
+2. Where are you from?
+
+**Answer:**
+
+1. 이름이 뭐예요? (i-reum-i mwo-ye-yo?)
+2. 어디에서 왔어요? (eo-di-e-seo wat-seo-yo?)
+
+**Explanation:** 뭐 (mwo) = "what" in informal questions. 어디 (eo-di) = "where." 에서 = "from." These two questions are the most common in first-meeting conversations.
+
+:::
+
+:::exercise{id="ko-ess-02-polite" type="multiple-choice" title="Choose the Right Register" skill="polite-register" objectiveId="obj-ko-ess-02-polite"}
+
+**Question:** You are introducing yourself to your Korean professor at university. Which introduction is most appropriate?
+
+**Options:**
+- 안녕! 나는 사라야. 미국에서 왔어.
+- 안녕하세요! 저는 사라예요. 미국에서 왔어요.
+- 처음 뵙겠습니다. 저는 사라입니다. 미국에서 왔습니다. 잘 부탁드립니다.
+- 반가워! 나 사라인데.
+
+**Answer:** 3
+
+**Explanation:** A professor is a formal relationship — use the most formal register. 처음 뵙겠습니다 is appropriate for first meetings with elders/superiors. 입니다 and 왔습니다 are formal verb endings. Options 1 and 4 are too casual; option 2 is polite but less formal than ideal for a professor.

+
+## Introduction
+
+Three questions will serve you constantly in Korea:
+1. **뭐예요?** (mwo-ye-yo?) — What is it?
+2. **어디예요?** (eo-di-ye-yo?) — Where is it?
+3. **얼마예요?** (eol-ma-ye-yo?) — How much is it?
+
+Master these three patterns and you can navigate most daily situations.

+::vocab-item{id="ko-nugu" word="누구" pronunciation="nu-gu" meaning="who"}
+
+:::
+
+## Pattern 1: 뭐예요? (What is it?)
+
+**Structure:** [Noun] + 이/가 + 뭐예요?
+
+Or simply attach 이/가 to ask "What is [noun]?":
+
+| Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| 이게 뭐예요? | i-ge mwo-ye-yo? | What is this? |
+| 저게 뭐예요? | jeo-ge mwo-ye-yo? | What is that (over there)? |
+| 이름이 뭐예요? | i-reum-i mwo-ye-yo? | What is the name? |
+| 직업이 뭐예요? | ji-geo-bi mwo-ye-yo? | What is your job? |
+
+**Answers use [noun] + 이에요/예요:**
+- 사과예요 (sa-gwa-ye-yo) — It is an apple
+- 커피예요 (keo-pi-ye-yo) — It is coffee
+
+## Pattern 2: 어디예요? (Where is it?)
+
+**Structure:** [Place/Person] + 이/가 + 어디예요?
+
+| Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| 화장실이 어디예요? | hwa-jang-si-ri eo-di-ye-yo? | Where is the bathroom? |
+| 지하철역이 어디예요? | ji-ha-cheol-lyeo-gi eo-di-ye-yo? | Where is the subway station? |
+| 편의점이 어디예요? | pyeon-ui-jeo-mi eo-di-ye-yo? | Where is the convenience store? |
+| 어디에 있어요? | eo-di-e it-seo-yo? | Where is it? (literally: where does it exist?) |

+
+::vocab-item{id="ko-loc-gongbang" word="공항" pronunciation="gong-hang" meaning="airport"}
+
+:::
+
+## Pattern 3: 얼마예요? (How much is it?)
+
+**Structure:** [Item] + 이/가 + 얼마예요?
+
+| Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| 이거 얼마예요? | i-geo eol-ma-ye-yo? | How much is this? |
+| 이 가방 얼마예요? | i ga-bang eol-ma-ye-yo? | How much is this bag? |
+| 합계가 얼마예요? | hap-gye-ga eol-ma-ye-yo? | What is the total? |
+
+**Sample answer:**
+- 오천 원이에요. (o-cheon wo-ni-e-yo.) — It is 5,000 won.
+- 만오천 원입니다. (man-o-cheon wo-nim-ni-da.) — It is 15,000 won.
+
+## This/That/That Over There
+
+Korean has a three-way demonstrative system:
+
+| Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| 이것 / 이거 | i-geot / i-geo | this (close to speaker) |
+| 그것 / 그거 | geu-geot / geu-geo | that (close to listener) |
+| 저것 / 저거 | jeo-geot / jeo-geo | that over there (far from both) |
+
+**In questions:**
+- 이게 뭐예요? = What is this?
+- 저게 얼마예요? = How much is that over there?
+
+## Useful Filler Responses

+
+::vocab-item{id="ko-eopseoyo" word="없어요" pronunciation="eop-seo-yo" meaning="There is not / I don't have"}
+
+:::
+
+## Key Points
+
+1. **뭐예요 = all-purpose "what"**: Use 이게/저게 뭐예요? to point and ask
+2. **어디예요 vs 어디에 있어요?**: Both ask "where?" — 있어요 version is slightly more natural for locations
+3. **얼마예요 = how much**: Essential for shopping, always polite
+4. **이/그/저**: Three levels of "this/that" based on distance from speaker/listener

+2. 이름이 뭐예요? (i-reum-i mwo-ye-yo? — What is your name?)
+3. 직업이 뭐예요? (ji-geo-bi mwo-ye-yo? — What is your job?)

+
+**Question:** You are at a market. How do you ask about and confirm these prices?

+3. 이만오천 원이에요. (i-man-o-cheon wo-ni-e-yo. — It is 25,000 won.)
+
+**Explanation:** 이 before a noun = "this." 얼마예요? = how much? To state the price, add 이에요 after the amount. 25,000 in Korean is 이만오천 (2×만 + 5×천).
