 Netiquette Guide for Online Courses

It is important to recognize that the online classroom is in fact a classroom, and certain
behaviors are expected when you communicate with both your peers and your instructors.
These guidelines for online behavior and interaction are known as netiquette.

Security
Remember that your password is the only thing protecting you from pranks or more serious
harm.
 Don't share your password with anyone.
 Change your password if you think someone else might know it.
 Always log out when you are finished using the system.

Appearance
Bear in mind that you are attending a class, dress appropriately.

General Guidelines
When communicating online, you should always:
 Treat your instructor and classmates with respect in email or any other communication.
 Always use your professors’ proper title: Dr. or Prof., or if in doubt use Mr. or Ms.
 Unless specifically invited, don’t refer to your instructor by first name.
 Use clear and concise language.

smentPost Assessment
 Remember that all college level communication should have correct spelling and
grammar (this includes discussion boards).
 Avoid slang terms such as “wassup?” and texting abbreviations such as “u” instead of
“you.”
 Use the prescribed font Palatino Linotype and use a size 10-point font.
 Avoid using the caps lock feature AS IT CAN BE INTERPRETTED AS YELLING.
 Limit and possibly avoid the use of emoticons like :) or J.
 Be cautious when using humor or sarcasm as tone is sometimes lost in an email or
discussion post and your message might be taken seriously or sound offensive.
 Be careful with personal information (both yours and other’s).
 Do not send confidential information via e-mail.

Email Netiquette
When you send an email to your instructor, teaching assistant, or classmates, you should:
 Use a descriptive subject line.
 Be brief.
 Avoid attachments unless you are sure your recipients can open them.
 Avoid HTML in favor of plain text.
 Sign your message with your name and return e-mail address.
 Think before you send the e-mail to more than one person. Does everyone really need to
see your message?
 Be sure you REALLY want everyone to receive your response when you click, “reply all.”

iv
  Be sure that the message author intended for the information to be passed along before
you click the “forward” button.

Netiquette Guide for Online Courses

Message Board Netiquette and Guidelines

When posting on the Discussion Board in your online class, you should:
 Make posts that are on topic and within the scope of the course material.
 Take your posts seriously and review and edit your posts before sending.
 Be as brief as possible while still making a thorough comment.
 Always give proper credit when referencing or quoting another source.
 Be sure to read all messages in a thread before replying.
 Don’t repeat someone else’s post without adding something of your own to it.
 Avoid short, generic replies such as, “I agree.” You should include why you agree or add
to the previous point.
 Always be respectful of others’ opinions even when they differ from your own.
 When you disagree with someone, you should express your differing opinion in a
respectful, non-critical way.
 Do not make personal or insulting remarks.
 Be open-minded.

Hello, Korea… Saranghae!

Introduction

Hello! Annyeonghaseyo haksaeng!

This is the beginning of your journey in the Korean Language. Wait! You are not expected to
finger-heart and say “saranghae” on this part yet! Before you indulge yourself with the
language, you have to familiarize yourself first with the relevant schema for you to
effectively internalize the language use. Similar to the learning English as your second
language, it is not only the language structure that you have to deal with but also the context
where your target language is in function. That’s right! The goal of this course is to make
you use the Korean language in basic but authentic situations.

This topic packet will introduce you to Korean significant history and culture, Korean
Alphabet (Basic Vowels/Double Consonants, Korean Alphabet (Combined Vowels/Double
Consonants), and Korean basic expressions. Varied Activities per topic are provided and are
required to be accomplished. You have to engage yourself in listening, writing, speaking,
and reading.

So, shall we begin? I want to hear a loud “NE”!

Ne, Shi-jak-ha-gessum-ni-da!

South Korea's climate is characterized by a cold, moderately dry winter, and a humid, moist
summer. It has four seasons, similar to Japan. During winter the coldest monthly average
temperatures drop below freezing except along the southern coast.The average January
temperature in Seoul is at low 20s ° F (about −5 ° C), whereas the corresponding figure is at
mid-30s ° F (about 2 ° C) at Busan, on the southeastern coast. Elsewhere, summer
temperatures around the country are fairly constant, the average monthly temperature for

being at 70s ° F (about 25 ° C).

Daegu is the driest area on the

east coast, while the south coast
is the wettest; southern Jeju

inches (1,800 mm) annually. Up
to three-fifths of the annual
precipitation is received in June

The early Korean civilizations contribute to the development of the rich Korean culture. For
half of the first century, Korea was split between Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla, the three rival
sovereign powers, known together as the "Three Kingdoms of Korea." Goguryeo, built on
China's frontiers, was at the forefront of the Chinese Han invasions.This kingdom was the
largest to occupy Korea back then until Silla became stronger in 668 AD and ruled the land
commonly known as Unified Silla. Though Silla 's dominance collapsed after more than 220
years. Goguryeo and Baekje had their territories restored. That period is called The Three
Kingdoms of the Later.

Goguryeo flourished in 918 A.D. This conquered the lesser kingdoms, and founded as a
unified kingdom the Goryeo (Koryo). The current name of Korea came from the Kingdom of
Goryeo. Goryeo ruled the entire Korea for many years. They had been joined and strongly
inspired in China by the Mongol Yuan dynasty. The relationship was the Goryeo kingdom's
eventual
downfall.When some
generals found that the
Mongolian kingdom
was already semi-
autonomous, that led to
political unrest. In 1392
Goryeo was succeeded
by the great Kingdom
of Cheoson and lasted
until 1897.From
Kaesong the country's
capital was moved to

korea-history/(For higher image spec, put the mouse pointer on the picture, press CTRL then CLICK.) Seoul in 1394 and
during this period the
current hangul Korean alphabet was introduced specifically in 1443 under the rule of King
Sejong the Great. Koreans used the Chinese writing system before this. The name Cheoson
came from the Chinese word 'chaohsien' meaning 'morning freshness' due to its spell-binding
natural beauty of picturesque scenery and highlands, and the splendid tranquility of the
atmosphere.

The Confucian culture had been influential in Korean thought with considerable influence
from the Chinese, along with contributions from Buddhism, Taoism, and Korean Shamanism.
In South Korea, however, Christianity has been competing with Buddhism since the middle
of the 20th century.This came along with the arrival of the Europeans mostly for trade, and
they brought with them Christianity too. According to South Korean government statistics
compiled in 2005, about 46 per cent of people claim to practice no specific religion. Christians
make up 29.2% of the population (of which 18.3% are Protestants and 10.9% are Catholics)
and 22.8% are Buddhists. So to put it, Korea is one of Asia's most Christian nations, only
second to the Philippines.

By 1910, under Japanese rule, Korea was again subjugated, becoming an annex to Japan,
acting mainly as an outsourced agricultural and production centre. Many Koreans were

forced to learn Japanese and assume Japanese names during this period.The annexation was
eventually lifted in 1945 after the loss of WWII by Japan. Russian troops landed in the north
of the Korean peninsula and American troops in the south, splitting the nation into two along
the 38th parallel which is still the Demilitarized Zone today. The onset of the Cold War
further separated the two Koreas, and the north invaded the south in 1950 marking the
beginning of the Korean War. For us Filipinos, this historic event was very significant because
it brought stronger ties between Korea and the Philippines and led to the creation of long-
term bilateral relations.

About 7,000 Filipino troops were sent to Korea to fight against Communist opponents. Many
lives have gone missing. Millions were hit hard. Both ends called on an armistice, for this
reason. In 1953, the war ended in a truce, with the border returning to 38th parallel again.
This stalemate has existed
down to this moment ever
since. North Korea remains
under a communist regime
led by Kim Jung Un while
South Korea is now a
democratic republic led by
Moon Jae-in.

South Korea was dominated

by military leaders
successively after the war
and democracy did not
really take root until the late 1980's. The 1988 Olympics came to Seoul, which helped to

AssignmentAssignment
expand its global presence and begin the nation's rebuilding. The economy began to be
dominated by large Korean conglomerates and global brands such as LG, Samsung, Kia and
Hyundai.Those companies are now helping to reshape the cultural history of Korea. Since
then Korean culture has had a global impact. Hallyu, or Korean wave, has gained prominence
not only in Asia but in the western world as well. K-Drama and K-Pop soared to success.
Korean brands were listed as one of the leading markets. It will improve Korean tourism and
raise the number of people wanting to learn Korean. The Korean language today is one of the
world's most commonly spoken
languages, following the ranking
of the Japanese and Turkish
languages.

Hallyu (Korean Wave)

The Korean Wave (Hallyu) is

described as the global
phenomenon of the cultural
economy of South Korea that
exports pop culture, the highest number of BTS fans in the world, followed only by South Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam, and
Thailand. Source: https://www.koreaboo.com/stories/bts-fans-895k-philippines-country-world/

It is also a common term used to refer to the phenomenal growth of Korean culture and
popular culture that includes everything from music , film, drama to video gaming, and just
to name a few, Korean cuisine. Former US president Barack Obama paid a state visit to Korea
in March 2012 and referred to the Korean Wave, which prompted the Korean government to
make hallyu a top economic priority.

South Korea is one of the few, if not the only, countries in the world which has a dedicated
target of being the world's leading exporter of popular culture. Who among us does not know
what Kimchi is, finger head, samgee, anngyeonghaseyo, Sun Descendants, Black Pink, CLOY,

Cuisine

Koreans love to eat like Filipinos.

The cuisine was a part of Korean
society, therefore. Korean cuisine
additionally joins the world's most
frequented cooking styles because

assume that the food's taste and
consistency are proportional to its
spices and sauces – the basic
ingredients to make a tasty meal.

Since Korean cuisine is heavily influenced by the geography and climate of the Korean
Peninsula, renowned for its cool autumns and winters, many fermented dishes and spicy
soups and stews accompany almost all of their delicious dishes.
Korean cuisine is best known for
kimchi, a side dish that uses a
distinctive fermentation process in
which vegetables are preserved, most
commonly cod. Kimchi is said to
relieve the pores on the skin, thereby
reducing wrinkles and naturally
providing the skin with nutrients. It's
healthy too, because it contains
essential vitamins and nutrients.
Gochujang, a traditional Korean sauce
made from red pepper is also
commonly used, sometimes as chili pepper paste, gaining a reputation for spiciness in the
cuisine.

Common meat entries are Bulgogi (roasted marinated meat, usually beef), galbi (marinated
grilled short ribs), and samgyeopsal (pork belly) Furthermore, fish is a well-known food,
because it is the main meat consumed by Koreans. Meals are usually accompanied by soup or
sauce, such as galbitang (stewed ribs) or doenjang jjigae (fermented bean paste broth).The
table core is filled with a selection of side dishes, called banchan.

Some well-known dishes include bibimbap, which simply means "mixed rice" (meat,

AssignmentAssignment
vegetables, and red pepper paste mixed with rice), and naengmyeon (cold noodles).

Instant noodles, or ramyeon, are popular snack dishes. Koreans also enjoy food from
pojangmachas (street vendors), serving tteokbokki, rice cake, and fish cake with a spicy
gochujang sauce; gimbap, made of steamed white rice wrapped in dried laver seaweed; fried
squid; and glazed sweet potato.

Interesting Facts about South Korea

Learning a language becomes more interesting for you can deviate from discovering some
peculiarities of the language cultural aspects. Here are some trivia about Koreans compiled
by 90 Day Korean webpage that may help you understand more the language context:

1. It is common to ask about blood types.

One of the famous facts is that South Koreans believe their blood type has some
meaning. Their Japanese neighbors are close in this way too. While people in other countries
may or may not know their blood type, surely every South Korean knows his or her own!

2. When born, South Koreans will be one year old.

Some of the interesting things about the South Koreans is that they're naturally one
year old when they are born. There are different schools of thought on why this is so. One
reason is that people believe this is because the baby has been in the womb of the mother for

Learning Module: Basic Korean

 Course

Packet LM1-FOLA
Packet

03
01 0113

9 months, which is around 1 year. Therefore the baby is 1 year old when born in South Korea.
Calculate your Korean age (your birth this year).

3. Koreans are one of the world’s largest drinkers and you can drink anywhere – and we
mean anywhere!
Looks Filipino, doesn't it? Hey! South Korea has a strong tradition of drinking. SOJU
originally originated in Korea. South Koreans drink an average of 12.3L of alcohol each year,
and are ranked # 17 in the world, according to the World Health Organization! While most
Western countries have at least some guidelines on where you can and can not drink in
public, South Korea believes strongly in freedom

4. Valentine’s Day is for guys.

One of South Korea's intriguing truths is that Valentine's Day is a day on which
males collect candy from females, while young ladies collect sweets on White Day. Mark your
calendars and brush up with the language of your Valentine who is one day in South Korea
where you don't want to make a mistake with your loved one! You can look over your
Konglish by learning the word 화이트데이 (White Day).

5. Couples at Christmas, Families at New Year

Christmas is a time for certain people around the world to return to your hometown
and spend time with your family. Then again New Year's Eve is usually a party night spent at
a bar, club, or house party with friends. South Korea is essentially the reverse. Koreans enjoy
a better part of their Christmas day. That they see their families on this day is not so
important.

AssignmentAssignment
6. Tetraphobia
In case you 're not up on your lingo phobia, tetraphobia means avoiding the number
four. One of the fascinating facts concerning South Korea is that 4 is an unfortunate number.
And you'll also see floors 1 , 2 , 3, and F in the elevators. Apartments in South Korea with
many 4s numbers (ex. 404) are mostly avoided, and the property values are lower. The
explanation for this is because in Korean the word for 4 is identical to the word for death. In
Korean, the number "four" is equal to "death." The cultural belief is popular among the people
of China and Japan.

7. Medical Tourism… plus both men and women obsessed with makeup.
One of the interesting facts about South Korea is that it's a popular medical tourism
destination, especially cosmetic surgery. Citizens come from across the globe on a short trip
to South Korea to get their looks enhanced. It is common knowledge that South Korea is one
of the world's makeup capitals — there are whole districts of Seoul devoted to beauty shops,
and it is truly the paradise of a makeup lover. What is less well known is that men and
women wear makeup alike in South Korea — there is no stigma regarding men wearing
makeup, and some people wear far more makeup than women! It doesn't make them any less
of a individual.
By the way ... PLASTIC SURGERY is SUPER common, in South Korea!

8. Couples at Christmas, Families at New Year

Christmas is a time for many people across the globe to return to your hometown and
spend time with relatives. On other hand, New Year's Eve is usually a party atmosphere that

is spent at a bar, club, or house party with friends. South Korea is essentially the reverse.
Koreans are spending their Christmas day with their other important ones. That they see their
families on this day is not so important.

Although South Korea celebrates New Year's Day, this isn't a big celebration. Lunar New
Year is the most popular holiday of the year and is observed in the first two months of the
year (depending on the lunar calendar). A significant number of Koreans return to their
hometowns during this time to visit their relatives.If you're planning some road trips around
that time, make sure you 're factoring in a few extra hours of travel time!

설날 is a popular term in South Korea (Seollal Lunar New Year), so it's a good word to learn!

Each of the above are only a handful of the distinctive characteristics of Korean society.
Further odd mores and practices remain unincluded. Can you move on to list more? Share it
with us through the Web Discussion Session.

Given all of the above, what do you think are the differences between Korea and the

Korean Language and Writing System

Korea's official language is 한 국 어 (Han-gu-geo). Based on 2011 figures by the Korean

Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, about 77 million speakers worldwide making it the
13th most commonly spoken
language in the world.
Korean is the world's 10th

AssignmentAssignment
most-spoken language based
on the number of Internet
users (Internet World Stats,
2009).

한글 (Hang-geul) is a Korean
writing style. It was founded
in the Choseon Era in 1443
by King Sejong the Great. It
was called Hunminjeonguem
at the time. Prior to the
creation of Hangeul, literacy
was a privilege granted only
language. The sculpture of King Sejong the Great is on the right. https://rb.gy/vaqqvh
to the intellectual class.

Koreans used Chinese characters when writing the Korean language before Hangeul was
developed. Nevertheless, without education, Chinese characters were too hard for ordinary
people. Therefore, King Sejong produced Hangeul, that ordinary people can easily use. Until
now, the Korean language, which is common as Hanja, also has traces of Chinese ideography.

The Vowels
Based on Hunminjeonguem, King Sejong made ‘ㅏ, ㅑ, ㅓ, ㅕ, ㅗ, ㅛ, ㅜ, ㅠ’ based on the
three simple vowels (i.e ,•, ㅡ , ㅣ ). which depicted the round sky, the flat earth, and a
standing person. By combining those basic letters, the rest of the vowels were made.

Vowels are classified by their sound values into two groups-single vowels and diphthongs.
The vowels in the shaded boxes are diphthongs, and single vowels are those in the non-

The Syllabary and Final Consonant Sound

Consonants and vowels are combined to form syllable blocks. In writing, every syllable must
have at least one consonant and one vowel. Consonants cannot be written alone. Likewise,
vowels cannot stand alone. Therefore, when a syllable has no consonant in the initial position,
ZERO ‘ㅇ’ is written to hold the empty consonant position. A consonant is also allowed in the
final position.

받침 Final Consonants - Batchim

The final consonant of a syllable is called batchim(literally ‘support’ in English). This is

because the final consonant is written below the vowel, and seems to support the letters
above. This is in contrast to the English writing system in which letters in each syllable are
written from left to right, as in ‘can’ and ‘jam’. If you wrote the English words ‘can’ and ‘jam’
in Korean, the final consonants ‘n’ and ‘m’ would be placed under the ‘consonant + vowel’
part of the syllable.

The possible pronunciation of batchimis limited. Only the following seven sounds (i.e. ㄱ, ㄴ,
ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅇ) are allowed when pronouncing batchim. Batchim‘ㄴ,ㅁ, ㅇ’ are pronounced as
their original sound values. Batchim‘ㄹ’ is pronounced as [l]. Batchim‘ㅂ, ㅍ’ are pronounced
as unreleased [ㅂ]. Batchim‘ㄱ, ㅋ, ㄲ’ are pronounced as unreleased [ㄱ]. Batchim ‘ㄷ, ㅌ, ㅅ,
ㅆ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅎ’ are all pronounced as unreleased [ㄷ].

Batchim Sound Value Examples

ㄴ [n] 안[an]

ㅁ [m] 암[am]

ㅇ [ŋ] 앙[aŋ]

ㄹ [l] 알[al]

ㅂ, ㅍ [p] 압, 앞[ap]

ㄷ, ㅌ, ㅅ, ㅆ, ㅈ, ㅊ [t] 앋, 앝, 앗, 았, 앚, 앛[at]

This is how the syllabary works:

 
Key Points:
CV HA
ㅎㅏ 하  
Based on the rulings, this

sound as [HAN]. The
CV HA
ㅎㅏ consonant is ㅎ(h), the
fC N 한 vowel is ㅏ(a),and the
ㄴ batchim is ㄴ(n).
하
C M
ㅁ
Meanwhile, this particular

V O

[MOT] not [MOS]. The
ㅗ consonant is ㅁ(m), the

When a syllable ends in a consonant and is followed by a vowel (i.e. an empty consonant
‘ㅇ’), the final consonant sound is shifted to the initial position of the next syllable. Look at the
following examples:

Can you read the following aloud?

음악 [으막] 국어 [한구거] 할아버지 [하라버지]

집에 [지베] 꽃이 [꼬치] 이름이 [이르미]

자기소개[ja.gi so.gae]– Self-Introduction

You want to introduce yourself and make a little talk when you meet a new Korean person.
So, learning how to introduce yourself to Korean is very important. Additionally, how to

AssignmentAssignment
introduce yourself will vary based on the situation.

But before you introduce yourself, let’s go over first with some manners and culture. It is
imperative to know them, then you can begin presenting yourself.

1. Before anything else, greet them by saying 안녕하세요.

2. Bow as you greet them.

3. If you shake hands, use your right hand or both hands.

4. It’s best to avoid direct eye contact with someone of higher authority in the
beginning.

5. Address them by their title or family name

(Koreans don't refer to each other by their first name unless they're close, and even then they
often go to ‘언니’, ‘오빠’, and so on. When you meet a new person, use their title or family
name. For a new friend, it may be okay to just add an honorary (sshi) to the name, you can
always ask during self-introducing.)

Let’s study this conversation.

AssignmentAssignment
In Korean culture of greetings, bowing has been significantly part of their century old mores.
Recently, the Philippine government has started promoting another way of greeting another
person while ensuring health safety amid the pandemic. We are all aware that for a long time,
Filipinos have been accustomed to “pagmamano” (reaching elder’s hand and placing it onto
the forehead) and “kamayan” (shaking hands). However, by virtue of House Resolution No.
408, a new way of courtesy greeting shall be practiced. This will be called “Bating Filipino” or
placing one's palm at the center of the chest together with a slight nod as a customary Filipino
gesture of goodwill.

What can you say about this? Will you also promote and practice it? Or will you call for
modification or rejection of this new gesture? Support your answer.
