Participants 22124 When it comes to numbers,

there are actually two systems

 Take Notes
Korean. The one we're going to
cover in this lesson is called the
6 – Verbs: Stuffy Form China System.
7 – Numbers: The China System 1-10 To learn every number you’ll

ever need to know in the China
8 – StudyLingo
system, you only need to
9 – Challenges M1W3 memorize 18 numbers.

That’s right! Learn the numbers
1-18 plus the words
for hundred, thousand, ten
Module 1 Week 5 12 Lessons thousand, and a few increments
after that and you can create all
the other numbers easily
through simple combinations.
Module 1 Week 8 11 Lessons | 2 Quizzes That should be reassuring.

In this lesson, we're going to
Module 1 Week 10 11 Lessons | 1 Quiz cover the numbers 1-10. Future
lessons will cover the rest. To
Module 1 Week… 11 Lessons | 2 Quizzes show you that the China
System is quite simple, we'll
give you a sneak peak at what's

to come with all 18 numbers.
Imagine you were learning

Participants 22124 English for the first time now.
You’d have to learn a lot more
Giovanny numbers than you do in Korean
 Take Notes
because each multiple of ten
has a new name in English! For
6 – Verbs: Stuffy Form example, "twenty", "thirty",

"forty", etc.
In Korean, it’s just a matter of

8 – StudyLingo
simple multiplication with the
9 – Challenges M1W3 18 numbers.

For example, 10 in Korean is 십.
Module 1 Week 4 11 Lessons | 1 Quiz 20 in Korean is literally “two-
ten” (이십), 30 is “three-ten” (삼
Module 1 Week 5 12 Lessons 십), and so on.

Likewise, 100 in Korean is 백

while 200 is “two-hundred” (이
백) and 300 is “three-hundred”
Module 1 Week 8 11 Lessons | 2 Quizzes (삼백).

And this pattern continues even
up into the billions — just
multiply or combine and you’ve
Module 1 Week… 11 Lessons | 2 Quizzes got yourself the number you’re
looking for!
Knowing how easy it is to

create numbers in Korean, your
only task becomes to memorize

the critical 18 numbers.

For today, we're going to focus

on 1-10.

NOTE
6 – Verbs: Stuffy Form The Korean word for zero is
공 (gong). Interestingly, this
is the same as the word for
ball. Makes sense, they're

both round!
You can also use the word
영 for zero, it is
interchangeable with 공.
Module 1 Week 5 12 Lessons There are many ways to

memorize these 10 core
numbers. One is creating a peg
system, which is explained in
this document on mnemonics —

You still need to memorize the
9 – Challenges M1W3 number words, but linking them
up with the corresponding
number can be difficult in the
beginning. In other words, you
may remember the names, but
Module 1 Week 5 12 Lessons it’s hard to quickly recall which
number is which.
Many people may just

memorize the list of numbers 1-
10 in order. Then when using
them in real-life scenarios, they
Module 1 Week 9 8 Lessons | 1 Quiz need to count on their hands or
think for a while before
responding or taking action.

You need the preceding number

as a cue to recall the next. This
is especially troublesome in

response or action, like when
