Korean vocabulary - theme "Time"

41 Korean words for the theme "Time" with Hindi meanings, pronunciation and examples. A useful set for beginners and for TOPIK preparation.

Figures, dates, days and time expressions: this theme is useful everywhere — prices, schedules, appointments, dates of birth. A mistake with numbers is noticed at once when speaking.

What this theme covers

• Cardinal and ordinal numbers (first, second, third).
• Days of the week, months and seasons.
• Telling the time: it is noon, half past three, quarter past.
• Frequency: often, sometimes, never, every day.

Words not to mix up

• Korean has two number systems: native Korean (하나, 둘) and Sino-Korean (일, 이). Ages and hours use the native set; dates and money use the Sino-Korean set.
• “tomorrow” points to the next day, while “see you tomorrow” is a goodbye.
• “time” as an occasion (twice) is different from “time” as duration or weather.

TOPIK tip

In TOPIK I, understanding a price, a time or a date is essential for notices, forms and appointments.
