Today we're going to talk about two more body parts: hand and foot. Luna: Oh! We did arm and leg last time. Hand and foot make sense. Lucas: Exactly. Let's start with 'hand'. In Korean, hand is '손'. Luna: 손. That's short and sweet. Lucas: Yes. Repeat after me: 손. Luna: 손. Lucas: Good. Now, 'foot' is '발'. Luna: 발. Lucas: Perfect. So 손 is hand, 발 is foot. Let's practice a couple of useful sentences. Luna: Great. I'm ready. Lucas: First, 'to wash hands' is '손을 씻다'. But more commonly, you'll hear the polite command: '손을 씻으세요' — please wash your hands. Luna: 손을 씻으세요. Lucas: Right. So if you're at a restaurant and you see a sign, it might say that. Luna: That's useful. What about foot? Like if your foot hurts. Lucas: Good question. 'My foot hurts' is '발이 아파요'. '발이' is foot plus subject marker, '아파요' is hurts. Luna: 발이 아파요. Lucas: Exactly. Let's run through them all once more. First, hand: 손. Luna: 손. Lucas: Foot: 발. Luna: 발. Lucas: Wash your hands: 손을 씻으세요. Luna: 손을 씻으세요. Lucas: My foot hurts: 발이 아파요. Luna: 발이 아파요. Lucas: Awesome. Now let's imagine a little scene. You come home from outside. Luna: Okay. I walk in the door. Lucas: Your mom says, '손을 씻으세요'. Luna: Right, wash my hands. And I say '네'. Lucas: Perfect. Then later, you're walking and you step on something. You say '발이 아파요'. Luna: Ooh. 발이 아파요. Lucas: Good. Now, if Fexingo has been helping you make actual progress with Korean, we just wanted to mention something quickly.
