Description
Publisher's Description of My First Book of Korean Words
My First Book of Korean Words is a beautifully illustrated book that introduces young children to Korean language and culture through everyday words.
The words profiled in this book are all commonly used in the Korean language and are both informative and fun for English-speaking children to learn. The goals of My First Book of Korean Words are multiple: to familiarize children with the sounds and structure of Korean speech, to introduce core elements of Korean culture, to illustrate the ways in which languages differ in their treatment of everyday sounds and to show how, through cultural importation, a single word can be shared between languages.
Both teachers and parents will welcome the book's cultural and linguistic notes, and appreciate how the book is organized in a familiar ABC structure. Each word is presented in Hangeul, as well as in its Romanized form.
With the help of this book, we hope more children (and adults) will soon be a part of the nearly 80 million people worldwide that speak Korean!
Category Description for Abc Rhyming Books (My First Book Of)
Introduce unique bits of culture and languages to your family. Each book highlights a specific Asian language. Using the English alphabet, a word in the target language is introduced: A is for Ao (Vietnamese for pond); C is for Chai (Hindi for a special tea); J is for Janken (the Japanese version of Rock, Paper, Scissors). An explanatory preface (with pronunciation notes) highlights specific culture and language elements. Each volume contains beautiful, full-page illustrations and included rhyming text to introduce a word and bit of the culture. Each word is written for English pronunciation and in the target language. Emphasis is typically on day-to-day activities from a neutral perspective (with no religious emphasis). The publisher website provides free downloadable MP3 files with each word pronounced; some books include other supplements for further enjoyment. You'll treasure these lovely hardcover alphabet books and the languages and cultures they introduce. ~ Ruth
