Ola meu peixe :D
The first one is counting with pure Korean letters and the other one is counting with Chinese characters.
The difference between Korean numbers and Sino numbers is "rules and pronunciation".
native Korean numbers are more irregular than Sino numbers and it is little bit harder to pronounce for you, unfortunately. haha. Plus, the usage of those two systems is different in people's life.
* In official and academic areas, Koreans tend to use Sino numbers.
Ex) Counting the amount of money (in the bank), saying the temperature degree (in the weather forecast), etc.
* In informal areas, we use generally use Korean numbers.
Ex) Ages, the number of usual stuffs. the number of people, etc.
Native Korean numbers
1. Native Korean numbers
1 = 하나 [Ha-na]
2 = 둘 [Deul]
3 = 셋 [Set]
4 = 넷 [Net]
5 = 다섯 [Da-sut]
6 = 여섯 [Yeo-sut]
7 = 일곱 [il-gob]
8 = 여덟 [Yeo-deol]
9 = 아홉 [A-hob]
10 = 열 [Yeul]
- - - - - No rules till now so you should just memorize these numbers.
11 = 열 하나 [Yeul-hana]
12 = 열 둘 [Yeul-deul]
13 = 열 셋 [Yeul-set]
14 = 열 넷 [Yeul-net]
15 = 열 다섯 [Yeul-dasut]
- - - - - Can you see the rule here? you should just add the number which is smaller than 10 following the number which is bigger than 10. ok?
.
.
.
20 = 스물 [Seu-mool]
21 = 스물 하나[Seumool-hana]
.
.
.
30 = 서른 [Seo-leun]
40 = 마흔 [Ma-huen]
50 = 쉰 [Shin]
60 = 예순 [Ye-soon]
70 = 일흔 [il-huen]
80 = 여든 [Yeo-deun]
90 = 아흔 [A-heun]
.
.
.
100 - from 100, we just use Sino numbers in modern Korean language.
Ex)
I am 27 years old = 저는 27살 입니다 [Jeo neun "Seu-mool il-gob" sal ibnida.]
Jeu neun = I, sal = unit for ages, ibnida = be.
Please, give me 5 of them. = 그거 다섯 개 주세요. [Geu-geo "Da-sut" gae Jooseyo].
Geu-geo = of them, Gae = unit for usual stuffs, Jooseyo = Please, give me something.
* One more rule in native Korean numbers.
When you count the number of something with native Korean numbers
1(hana), 2(deul), 3(set), 4(net) are changed.
For example, when you say one thing, it is "Han-gae" (Gae is a unit for usual stuffs).
So, you should remove the pronunciation of "a" in the last part of the word.
The two of something is "Deu-gae".
The three of something is "Se-gae".
The four of something is "Ne-gae"
Understood?
This irregular rule is made just to make them sound soft to people.
And after 5, you can just use the same formation.
Da-sut gae, Yeu-sut gae, il-gob gae...etc.
Sino Korean numbers
2. Sino numbers
: Remember Korean language was affected by China for a long time ago.
So, some Chinese language things are still remained in Korean.
And Sino numbers are one of the examples. :)
As you can see below, it is easier and more regular.
1 = 일[il]
2 = 이[E]
3 = 삼 [Sam]
4 = 사 [Sa]
5 = 오 [O]
6 = 육 [Youk]
7 = 칠 [Chil]
8 = 팔 [Pal]
9 = 구 [Goo]
10 = 십 [Sib]
11 = 십 일 [Sib-il]
12 = 십 이 [Sib-e]
13 = 십 삼 [Sib-sam]
.
.
.
.
.
20 = 이 십 [E-sib]
21 = 이 십 일 [Esib-il]
22 = 이 십 이 [Esib-e]
.
.
.
30 = 삼 십 [Sam-sib]
40 = 사 십 [Sa-sib]
50 = 오 십 [O-sib]
60 = 육 십 [Youk-sib]
70 = 칠 십 [Chil-sib]
80 = 팔 십 [Pal-sib]
90 = 구 십 [Goo-sib]
100 = 백 [Back]
1000 = 천 [Cheon]
10,000 = 만 [Man]
100,000 = 십 만 [Sib-man]
1000,000 = 백 만 [Back-man]
10,000,000 = 천 만 [Cheon-man]
100,000,000 = 억 [Ueok]
Ex)
Please, give me 1000 won = 1000원 주세요. [Cheon-won jooseyo].
Won = unit for Korean currency, jooseyo = please, give me something
Today's temperature is 30℃. = 오늘의 기온은 30도 입니다. [O-neul eu Gi-on eun "Sam-sib"do ibnida]
O-nuel = today, eu = of, Gi-on = temperature, eun = subjective postposition, do = unit for temperature, ibnida = be.
Hope you don't feel dizzy with these two systems. haha :D
See you soon :D Te amo ♥
