Pimsleur Korean Language program is an audio-based system designed to teach spoken Korean language to English speakers. The Pimsleur Korean audio program uses a natural mode of interactive communication – questions and answers; statements and rejoinder – beginning with the most-frequently-utilized vocabulary native speakers use in everyday conversations. The system is made up of multiple thirty-minute lessons, in which the student is required to actively participate in thinking and speaking following the tutor's instructions.
Korean is the official language of North Korea and South Korea. It is also one of the two official languages in the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in China. There are about 80 million Korean speakers, with large groups in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Japan, the United States, CIS (post-Soviet states), and more recently the Philippines.
The genealogical classification of the Korean language is debated. Some linguists place it in the Altaic language family, while others consider it to be a language isolate. It is agglutinative in its morphology and SOV in its syntax. Like Japanese, the Korean language was influenced by the Chinese language in the form of Sino-Korean words. Native Korean words account for about 35% of the Korean vocabulary, while about 60% of the Korean vocabulary consists of Sino-Korean words. The remaining 5% comes from loan words from other languages, 90% of which are from English.
