24. How to order at a restaurant in Korean
Página 60
In our entry-level Korean course, one of the most important lessons is how to order food in a Korean restaurant. The dining experience at a Korean restaurant can be an exciting and delicious adventure, especially if you know how to order correctly. So let's start with some basic phrases you can use.
To initiate a request, you can use the phrase "주문하겠습니다" (jumunhagessseubnida), which means "I would like to place a request". If you want to order a specific menu, you can say "이것 주세요" (igeot juseyo), which means "Please give me this". If you are pointing to the menu, this sentence will be very useful.
If you want to order more than one item, you can use the word "두" (du) for two, "세" (se) for three, "< strong>네" (ne) for four, and so on, followed by "개 주세요" (gae juseyo), which means "please give it to me...". For example, if you want to order two bibimbaps, you can say "비빔밥 두 개 주세요" (bibimbap du gae juseyo).
If you have dietary restrictions or preferences, it's important to know how to communicate them. For example, if you are a vegetarian, you can say "나는 채식주의자입니다" (naneun chaesikjuuija imnida), which means "I am a vegetarian". If you can't eat spicy foods, you can say "나는 매운 음식을 먹을 수 없습니다" (naneun maeun eumsigeul meogeul su eobseubnida), which means "I can't eat spicy foods".
After placing your order, it is polite to thank the waiter or waitress. You can say "감사합니다" (gamsahamnida), which means "Thank you", or "고맙습니다" (gomapseubnida), which also means "Thank you".
Finally, when the meal is over and you are ready to pay, you can call the waiter or waitress and say "계산서 주세요" (gyesanso juseyo), which means "Please give me the bill ".
Understanding and using these basic phrases can significantly improve your Korean restaurant experience. However, it is important to remember that practice makes perfect. So don't worry if you can't remember all the phrases at once. Keep practicing and eventually you'll become proficient at ordering food in Korean.
We hope this lesson was helpful for you. Remember, learning a new language is a journey, not a destination. So keep learning and practicing, and you'll see progress in your mastery of Korean. 감사합니다!
