Unknown word: 식초
식초 means ‘vinegar’ and is one of the 5 vocabulary words listed on this page. See if you know all of them!
컵 and 버스
컵 means ‘cup’ and 버스 means ‘bus’. These two are really similar to the English words because they are ‘loan words’, therefore they sound really similar and their meaning is the same, of course. See the other words from 30.03.2019 (they are not ‘loan words’).

Curiosities – TMI?
TMI is a slang word Koreans use and it means ‘Too Much Information’. It is used when somebody gives too much information about himself/herself like what he did today, for example, information that nobody cares about.
Example:
재원: Hi! How have you been? We haven’t seen each other all week.
예현: Hi! I’m good! Well…I’ve been busy all week preparing for my exam and I could barely eat anything because of stress and my cats kept on meowing because I ignored them and forgot to feed them.

Curiosities – Have you ever heard of 밀당?
밀당 literally means ‘push and pull’ and it’s usually used by girls. 밀당 is when a girl acts like she’s not interested in a guy or just really busy (she wants to show him that she has things going on in her life even though she may not have). She would answer the phone after 3 calls or reply to his messages really late just to keep/leave him hanging.
