an yong ha se yo!
recently i've met two korean friends in college. and i've asked them to teach me korean! u know wat, korean language is so much easier and less complicated than japanese. it's more like mandarin and cantonese that we usually speak.
one of them is a lady named Baek HyeJi from Daegu and another guy named Jay from Seoul. they are friendly and sociable. but one thing i like is their willingness to teach me Korean word by word. haha.. of course anyonghaseyo and sarangheyo is the most common words we know.
let me share some of the words i've learnt =)
"kamsa hamida": thank you.
"chong mal kamsa hamida": thank you very much
where as, "chan man heyo", is: welcome
normally when there is a 'yo' behind some words it is for polite and formal use. like "mi an heyo" means sorry. or, "quencha nayo" means it's okay or no thank you.
i love these words, it's easy to remember and fun to learn =)
i've lots to share but slowly! ^^ few in a time, practicing it with my korean friends made me improved really fast...
haha... last week, my college bought an aircraft! a kingAir from Canada. it took them 2 years! 2 years to have the aircraft finally reached here in college. well, KingAir to Airbus is something like Kelisa to BMW. but quenchanayo, it's just for training purposes =)
i've managed to take some of the photos. that's the thing u wanna see right? haha.
that's when the aircraft first arrived! (where's the wing?!)
this is one of the engines. right side engine - we usually termed it as starboard engine. (left is port engine). this is a turbo-prop (propeller) engine, meaning it got a fan blades (like the house fan u've got above you now) in front of the engine (we took it off) running in a turbine engine (much more powerful than the piston engine we usually see in our car, and of course, super more powerful than last time steam engine). for big airplanes we use full turbine engine like in B777 we see today.
understand? xixi...
and for this, it's the first of many wire-lockings (meaning to lock 2 screws together refraining it to losen up) i'll do in years to come! though it's a bit cacat (note the bottom potion) but i'll improve and make no mistakes in no time! so don't worry passengers! teehee xD
so, my point for today is, for the first few months in 2010! i'm gonna touch more of this airplane, i'm gonna sit all my EASA papers! and i'm gonna grab hold of my Korean language!
oh yes, i'm gonna climb all these mountains!
