Salam Korean yang Penting
Kesan pertama dimulai dari salam. Panduan ini mencakup 15 salam Korean — dari sapaan santai hingga pamitan yang sopan — masing-masing dengan romanisasi, petunjuk "terdengar seperti", dan contoh kalimat yang bisa langsung kamu pakai.
Saying hello
One greeting covers Korea from dawn to midnight: 안녕하세요. Add your name after it and you've already made a first impression.
-
안녕하세요 annyeonghaseyo Hello
Works at any time of day — Korean gets by fine without a real 'good afternoon.'
-
좋은 아침 joeun achim Good morning
-
만나서 반가워요 mannaseo bangawoyo Nice to meet you
-
안녕하세요, 저는 민수입니다. annyeonghaseyo, jeoneun minsuimnida Hello, I'm Minsu — swap in your own name
One level fits all
Korean has several speech levels, but you only need one to start: the polite -요 (-yo) form used all over this page. Save the bare 안녕 (annyeong) for close friends and kids — with everyone else, 안녕하세요 never misses.
How are you?
Koreans ask 잘 지내세요? — literally 'are you getting along well?' The reply reuses the same verb, so one pattern buys you both sides of the exchange.
-
잘 지내세요? jal jinaeseyo? How are you?
-
잘 지내요 jal jinaeyo I'm doing well
-
안녕하세요, 오랜만이에요! annyeonghaseyo, oraenmanieyo Hello, long time no see!
Thanks, sorry, excuse me
Gratitude and apology both come in two strengths in Korean. The formal versions are never wrong, so learn those first and relax.
-
감사합니다 gamsahamnida Thank you
-
천만에요 cheonmaneyo You're welcome
In real life Koreans more often wave thanks off with 아니에요 — 'it's nothing.'
-
미안해요 mianhaeyo Sorry
-
죄송합니다 joesonghamnida I'm sorry (formal)
-
실례해요 sillyehaeyo Excuse me
Two goodbyes
Korean splits 'goodbye' by who walks away: 안녕히 가세요 ('go in peace') to the person leaving, 안녕히 계세요 ('stay in peace') when you're the one heading out.
-
안녕히 가세요 annyeonghi gaseyo Goodbye (to someone leaving)
-
안녕히 계세요 annyeonghi gyeseyo Goodbye (to someone staying)
-
잘 자요 jal jayo Good night
Who's leaving?
At a shop door, you're leaving and the clerk is staying — so you say 안녕히 계세요, and they send you off with 안녕히 가세요. If everyone is leaving, like after dinner out, it's 안녕히 가세요 all around.
In real life: first day, first meeting
안녕하세요, 저는 민수입니다. annyeonghaseyo, jeoneun minsuimnida
Hello, I'm Minsu.
만나서 반가워요, 많이 들었어요. mannaseo bangawoyo, mani deureosseoyo
Nice to meet you, I've heard a lot about you.
만나서 반가워요! 잘 부탁드려요. mannaseo bangawoyo! jal butakdeuryeoyo
Nice to meet you! Please look out for me.
안녕히 가세요, 내일 봐요! annyeonghi gaseyo, naeil bwayo
Goodbye, see you tomorrow!

Pertanyaan yang Sering Diajukan
Bagaimana cara menyapa orang dengan sopan dalam Korean?
Sesuaikan salam dengan situasinya: daftar di atas mencakup sapaan sehari-hari hingga salam formal dan salam sesuai waktu. Kalau ragu, pilih yang lebih sopan — terlalu hormat tidak pernah dianggap kasar.
Bagaimana cara mengucapkan frasa Korean ini?
Setiap frasa dilengkapi romanisasi — frasa yang dieja dengan huruf Latin. Baca pelan-pelan dengan suara keras dulu, lalu tingkatkan sampai mengikuti ritme frasa utuhnya. Penutur asli jauh lebih peduli pada rasa percaya diri dan konteks daripada pengucapan yang sempurna.
Apa cara terbaik untuk menghafal frasa-frasa ini?
Sedikit tapi rutin lebih ampuh daripada menghafal sekaligus. Ulas beberapa frasa setiap hari, ucapkan dengan suara keras, lalu ulangi lagi besok. Aplikasi Pretalk mengubah daftar seperti ini menjadi pelajaran singkat dengan pengulangan berjarak, sehingga frasanya benar-benar melekat.
