सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
The concept of 'Cheon-nyang-bit' (1,000 nyang debt) being repaid by words shows how much Koreans value eloquent and sincere communication. Koreans use 'Talk' (톡) as a verb because of the dominance of KakaoTalk. '톡해' often replaces '이야기해' for digital messaging. When talking to someone of higher status, you don't just 'iyagi-hada'; you 'mal-sseum-eul deul-i-da' (give words honorifically). Talking while eating was traditionally discouraged in strict Confucian households, but in modern Korea, it is the primary way to bond.
Use the contraction

Watch the particle
Don't forget to use '와/과' or '하고' when talking WITH someone. Using the object marker '를' on a person sounds like you are 'talking the person' (as if they are the topic).
