About This Revised Edition

Samuel E. Martin’s guide to learning Korean has firmly stood the test of time, as thousands of beginning learners continue to attest; his book has remained continuously in print since its original release in 1954.

It’s an extremely useful, compact guide that’s especially aimed at tourists and visitors to Korea, and with more people now visiting Korea than ever before, we hope this new revised edition will be greeted with enthusiasm.

This revised edition reflects several improvements, and some of the examples and phrases have been updated to reflect current usage. Korean text (Hangeul) is included throughout, and the romanization system follows the Korean government’s most recent method.

Two sets of native-speaker recordings for all Korean words and sentences are included in the disc (each word/sentence is read twice)—these enable the reader to have an idea of how different people pronounce the same words. The audios are grouped by lessons.

We hope that Practical Korean helps you to succeed with the Korean language, just as it’s helped many others.
