Lesson 62 · Reviewing Places & Products

Introduction

Use paired descriptions in a review: comfortable/uncomfortable, quiet/noisy. 가격 refers to price; 크기 refers to size.

Focus = new today. Review = from an earlier lesson. Read the Hangul out loud first, then check the romanization if you need help.
