me Kimbap Noona's Korean Lessons :)

Hi there! I'm Emma. I'm English and i’m 21 and i'm attempting to teach myself korean ~ i am in no way anywhere near fluent. I know a few people will find this helpful so i made this blog just for the Korean stuff. Enjoy. :) <3

reeminiscing submitted: Hi! :) how would you spell my name, Reem? It's pronounced like the 'ream' in Dream or Cream, except without a consonant in the beginning, obviously. there's a clear "R" sound and a clear, long vowel sound (ee). Thanks :D

Hi :) okay because the i(ee)/이 usually sounds quite short in korean, i think it would be better written as 리임/riim (ree-eem) to make sure the ‘ee’ sound is pronounced clearly like in 미인/miin (beauty). Even though ‘dream & cream’ would be written as ‘드림/deurim & 크림/keurim’ in korean. I hope this is okay :)
