Korean Q&A Patterns is a very interesting entry by TalkToMeInKorean aimed at intermediate-level learners which focuses on different ways of asking and answering questions, helping you to develop conversational skills beyond basic interactions.
There are 200 questions with answers – 50 main questions in 10 categories, such as food, work, but also K-drama and dating. Each Q&A has the same structure: the main question and 3 variations, the main answer and 3 variations, a personal answer from one of the authors of the textbook, an example dialogue, a list of vocabulary and grammar explanations. As is the case with all titles published by TalkToMeInKorean, you can listen to the audio material spoken by native speakers on their website.
The textbook shows real language use and dialogues that could actually happen in your life – it’s not just stiff phrasebooks full of grammatical structures useless in practice. Unlike Real-life Korean Conversations, where you’ll find full dialogues and a bit more grammar, Korean Q&A Patterns focuses on variations and paraphrasing questions and answers, showing the flexibility of natural spoken language.
