š„ Boosting Korean Knowledge
'Morning' in Korean is ģģ¹Ø[a-chim],
so a breakfast menu recommendation would be ģė©ģ¶[a-me-chu], right?
Exactly! You've got it.
A breakfast menu recommendation is said as ģģ¹Ø ė©ė“ ģ¶ģ² or ģė©ģ¶.
However, since many people skip breakfast because of their busy lives, the words ģ ė©ģ¶ and ģ ė©ģ¶ are much more commonly used.š So there are more people who don't know ģė©ģ¶ than those who do!
