About Korean A1
A1 is the entry-level tier in CEFR — the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. At A1 you can introduce yourself, ask and answer simple questions about personal details, and hold a basic conversation provided the other person speaks slowly and clearly. The words at A1 are the high-frequency words that show up in the overwhelming majority of everyday speech: greetings, numbers, family, food, weather, directions, time. Mastering A1 words is the foundation of Korean fluency — every later level is built on these words.
How to learn Korean A1
Spend your first 4-6 weeks on A1 words. The 45–65-minute daily loop is enough — review the A1 deck with spaced repetition until your recall rate is above 90%, then start adding A2 words one batch per week. Pair the deck with a basic grammar primer for Korean verb forms (or sentence-final particles, for languages like Korean and Japanese) so you can start producing your own sentences from day one.
Common questions about 난 in Korean
What level is 난 in Korean?
In LangOria's Korean deck, 난 sits at the A1 level of the language's recognized ability ladder (CEFR for most languages, JLPT for Japanese, HSK for Chinese). At this level you learn 난 alongside the highest-frequency words you actually need.
How do I memorize 난?
Rote repetition rarely sticks on its own. Learn 난 inside its example sentence, say it out loud, and let spaced repetition bring it back at the right moments. The 45–65-minute daily loop is usually enough to anchor 난 in long-term memory.
Where does the example for 난 come from?
Every word — including 난 — carries a real example drawn from the community-built Tatoeba sentence corpus: sentences written by native speakers, not synthetic textbook filler. That context is what makes 난 memorable.
What should I learn after 난?
Cover the remaining words at the A1 level, then move up. LangOria schedules spaced reviews and frequency-ordered decks, so 난 reinforces the rest of your A1 Korean vocabulary instead of standing alone.
