   Step 2: Talk with confidence.

   Speak loud and clear so the person your talking to can hear and understand you better. , Use this when talking to a stranger, your boss, someone older than you, your teacher, or someone of higher authority.
   
   Pronounce 안녕하세요 like: an-young-ha-se-yo.
   
   Use this to start your greeting.
   
   You can also say 안녕 when talking to your friends, siblings or someone younger than you.
   
   Pronounce 안녕 like: an-yoh.
   
   Only use this to start your greeting. , Pronounce 제 이름은 입니다 like: je ireumeun (your name) imnida.
   
   Remember that your name in Korean will sound different, for example:
   David would be Deibideu or Deibit so don't be surprised if a Korean says your name differently., Pronounce 만나서반가워요 like: mah-na-suh-ban-ga-wo-yo.
   
   This means nice to meet you. , Pronounce 이름이뭐에요 like: ileumi meo eyo? This sentence means, what's your name?--this will help you to get to know the person better.
