About Korean A2
A2 is the elementary tier in CEFR. At A2 you can handle most everyday interactions — ordering food, asking for directions, booking a hotel, describing your job and your weekend — and you can express yourself in simple connected sentences. The words at A2 expand on the A1 foundation: common verbs, daily routines, clothing, transport, the home. A2 is the practical fluency tier: if you finish A2, you can survive comfortably in a Korean-speaking country.
How to learn Korean A2
A2 takes about 6-8 weeks on top of A1. Continue spaced-repetition review of the A1 deck (your recall should now be automatic) and add 30-50 new A2 words per week. Start reading simple Korean texts — children's books, news headlines, restaurant menus — and listening to slow podcasts. By the end of A2 you should be able to follow a basic Korean conversation at natural speed.

Where does the example for 주고 come from?

What should I learn after 주고?
Cover the remaining words at the A2 level, then move up. LangOria schedules spaced reviews and frequency-ordered decks, so 주고 reinforces the rest of your A2 Korean vocabulary instead of standing alone.
