한국의 정류장 종류 등(Types of stops in Korea, etc.)

 The image displays various aspects of using public transportation in South Korea. Here's a detailed yet simple explanation in English for each term:

  1. Bus Stop (버스 정류장): Where passengers wait to board a bus. Look for signs with bus numbers and routes.
  2. Express Bus Terminal (고속터미널): A hub for long-distance buses connecting different cities. You'll find ticket counters and waiting areas here.

    You can buy bus tickets at the counter or through a smartphone app at intercity and express bus terminals in South Korea.

    You can purchase and pay for your ticket digitally when using the app. When you arrive at the terminal, you can go to the designated bus stop for your route.

    Here, you will find a device to scan the QR code displayed on your smartphone, which serves as your boarding pass.

    Please ensure you arrive on time to board the bus using this convenient and contactless method.
  3. Subway Station (지하철역): Underground train stations for the metro system. They have multiple entrances and platforms for different lines.
  4. Train Station (기차역): Stations where you can catch local or intercity trains. Facilities usually include ticket counters, waiting rooms, and shops.
  5. Airport (공항): A complex where you can board or disembark from airplanes. It includes terminals, check-in desks, security checks, and gates.
  6. Passenger Terminal (항구): A port area for passenger ships and ferries. It usually has ticket booths and departure/arrival gates.
  7. Underpass (지하도): A walkway beneath roads or railways to safely cross to the other side without interrupting traffic.
  8. Transportation Card (교통카드): A prepaid card used to pay for public transportation. You tap it on a reader when boarding and disembarking.
  9. To Recharge (충전하다): Adding money to your transportation card at designated machines or convenience stores.
  10. To Sell/Buy a Ticket (표를 팔다/사다): Purchasing a ticket for travel or selling one as a vendor.
  11. To Board a Bus (버스를 타다): The action of getting on a bus to start your journey.
  12. To Get Off a Bus (버스를 내리다): Exiting the bus when you reach your destination or stop.
  13. To Transfer (갈아타다): Changing from one mode of transport to another during your trip.
  14. To Transfer (환승하다): Similar to transferring but often used in the context of using a transfer ticket or pass.
  15. To Depart (출발하다): When the transport begins its journey from the station or stop.
  16. To Arrive (도착하다): When the transport reaches its destination or stop.
Understanding these terms will help you navigate the public transportation system in South Korea more effectively.

  ■ 한글창제의 원리_자음 창제의 원리      (Principles of Hangul Creation_Principles of Consonant Creation) T he Korean alphabet, Hangul, was developed with a unique principle that relates the shapes of its consonants to the parts of the mouth used to pronounce them. Here's a detailed explanation in English to help foreigners learn and appreciate the ingenious design behind Hangul: The consonants in Hangul were initially created to mimic  the shape of the mouth and tongue when making their sounds.  This makes Hangul highly phonetic and easy to learn. For instance: 'ㄱ' is shaped like the tongue blocking the throat, where the sound originates – this sound is known as "Guttural". 'ㄴ' resembles the tongue touching the roof of the mouth, thus called a "Lingual" sound. 'ㅁ' takes the shape of the lips and is called a "Labial" sound. 'ㅅ' looks like the teeth and produces a sound known as "Dental". 'ㅇ' represents the shape of ...
