How to ask your friends / oppa(오빠) to speak inbanmal(반말) politely?
 
In South Korea, you're suppose to speak inhonorific speech(존댓말)  when you first meet someone / you're not close with that person / when speaking with elders. 
Example of 존댓말(jondaetmal) 
같이 갈래요? (gat-i gallaeyo?) - Would you like to go together?  
알겠습니다 (algessseubnida) - Okay

Example of 반말 
지금 어디야? (jigeum eodiya?)  
Where are you now?
 
야, 뭐해?(ya, mwohae) 
Hey, what are you doing?
 
Any questions? :D Labels: banmal, honorific, 반말, 존댓말 |
