Home on the Range

[yaminokaitou]

Since I completely forgot what I bought in Korea when my parents left since they took a bunch of stuff with them, I decided to make an inventory of all the crap I'm bringing home. I'm leaving in less than a month, so I thought it'd be a good idea to start packing now.

Anyway, took some pictures with my piece of crap digital camera (I will NEVER buy

Oh man those look way too similar

one more reason to not confuse myself with languages besides Japanese >_>;

It's even worse in writing.

Koreans are super proud of their alphabet, but whenever I see it I keep thinking that half of it looks like hiragana or katakana. X_X

Heh, you'll have a lot to pack up. Maybe get a box and ship it?

I think your brain just goes "I know this" and tells you what it is, without bothering to mention what alphabet. I think that's nice: you're clearly learning it very well if you don't even need to think about what the language is to read it. ^^

I always bring too much stuff whenever I travel. I can't help it. T_T

I'm not sure about cameras but I remember Pentax having good DSLR cameras. ^^

You know, I never realised the similarities between the two alphabets except the obvious 's' looking the same as the kanji. xD Probably because I normally don't see hangul by themselves. :P

Most of my extended family and friends have Canons and all of them have been happy, so that's why I'm considering a Canon.

I noticed it mostly when I was learning Hangul and we had to read them one symbol at a time. It's really noticeable then.

Wow manga and manwha? They even have similar sounds.

I've heard from my friends that Canon is good at taking a picture of person and Nikon is good at both landscape/person pictures. But to me I think Canon is enough because Nikon is quite expensive. X_x

There are a lot of Korean words that sound similiar to Japanese words

Japanese = Korean
kibun = kibum (feeling, spirit)
ningen = ingun (human)
jikan = shigan (time)
bun = p/bun (minut)
isha = uisa

and etc. It makes learning Korean easier, though sometimes it can get a bit confusing.
