어휘(Vocabulary) 08.

 In Korean, the term used by a boy or man to refer to his grandfather is "할아버지" (harabeoji). So together, the times for grandparents are:

- Grandmother: 할머니 (halmeoni)
- Grandfather: 할아버지 (harabeoji)
These terms indicate respect and fondness within the family, and they do not differentiate between the mother's or father's side of the family—the exact words are used for both maternal and paternal grandparents.
In traditional Korean culture, grandparents often hold a place of high respect.
They are seen as key figures in the family hierarchy, often involved in raising grandchildren and imparting cultural knowledge and values.

'ㅅ' looks like the teeth and produces a sound known as "Dental". 'ㅇ' represents the shape of ...
