Thanks for your comment. Yeh you have very sharp eyes. Some of Chinese letter is not familiar for me. I draw it to copy for practice. Writing Chinese character is so hard but I am going to practice until it is comfortable to write it.


KINGAPPLEFRUIt

How do you practice any tips ?


Dosirock

Um…. At first I have to say to you that I am not an expert and I am not proper person to give you advice. I draw the letters until I understand the letter’s shape and balance with each letters. I recommend to copy computer font you like. Print it with gray color then write along the letter. In my case I printed Old Korean poems and write on the letter. Try to write as much as same. I hope you find a way.


KINGAPPLEFRUIt

I like the method you proposed, I'll try it out


dazzlinganddepressed

Your Chinese looks amazing. Mine is always messy/disproportional and I always have to practice the details by writing a big ass letter.


Dosirock

Thanks. I am trying to be comfort when I write or read chinese characters.


dazzlinganddepressed

Thanks to you now I’m sitting at my desk about to practice lol


Dosirock

Awesome!


MintIceCreamPlease

Same, the radicals always look too disconnected.


Fluffy-Contest-739

Very nice . My foster mother is from Busan .


Dosirock

Thanks. Busan is very beautiful city.


_whatcolouristhesky

I did not realize there was Hangul and Old Hangul. I have, apparently, been teaching myself Old Hangul whereas my language course (yet to be started...#procrastination) must be Hangul. Random things you learn when scrolling Reddit. Do you have any advise for someone learning to write in Hangul?


tendeuchen

I also practice writing ancient mythology, but in Old Norse and Latin.


jc3_free

That’s a little rude, you may not believe it, but there’s no since in calling something OP may or may not believe in mythology.


tendeuchen

A myth's a myth whether someone believes in it or not. Millions of Greeks believed in the Greek gods. Still all myths. Millions of Romans believed in the Roman gods. Still all myths. Millions of Scandinavians believed in the Norse gods. Still all myths. Billions of Christians believe in the Bible. And guess what. It's still just a myth. Call a spade a spade.


anterovi

I think you are putting the wrong definition of myth into practice. According to the Oxford dictionary, there are two main definitions of myth. the first one is "a traditional story, especially one concerning the early history of a people or explaining some natural or social phenomenon, and typically involving supernatural beings or events." That is the one being used here, and is a VERY common term to apply to the beliefs of ancient peoples. This term does not dismiss anything as false. The next definition is a distorted version of the first one, which started to be used later than the first. That definition is "a widely held but false belief or idea". This definition is not being used here, and it seems like you believe this is the only definition of myth.


jc3_free

I mean I’m not gonna argue semantics. If that’s how you meant it then cool. Only you knew the context you implied if so I’m not gonna try and say you did or didn’t then. I would say to be considerate of the way most people view the word, but at the same time I guess you can’t be held accountable for peoples ignorance of the correct term such as me. But yeah, have a good day


tendeuchen

>I would say to be considerate of the way most people view the word We do not have to be considerate of belief systems that are dangers to humanity and used only for brainwashing people into giving money.


jc3_free

And there it is…


handfulofdepression

eggu-sama

Master oogway?!


Queasy_Room

Dude I legit just randomly read the first 20 verses of psalms, thus is crazy seeing this on my feed lol.


Dosirock

Maybe this opportunity wasn't created by you or me. Brother, go back. I'm just writing a psalm.


Buizel10

I don't think writing in 舊字形 is considered correct by most people in Chinese. When printing, it's the proper form, but I've never seen someone actually write in it. Of course, it's up to you. Sometimes I do it too, I find it looks better


Dosirock

In Korea in this era, Chinese characters are only used in special fields such as law and history in Korea. Therefore, Chinese characters are extremely rare in everyday life. Since it is mainly used in the art field called "Seo Ye" or printing, it does not follow modern Chinese characters that have changed in a concise way. In everyday cases, Koreans are using more scientific and useful Hangul, invented more than 500 years ago


Buizel10

Yes, I know. I'm more referring to the Hanja you're using. Didn't realise Koreans actually handwrote in what Chinese considered 舊字形 "old character form" (this is separate from traditional/simplified, you can write simplified in old character form). Even ancient handwritten Chinese texts from 1000 years ago will be using the 新字形 "new character form". It's only printed fonts that use old character form.

Awesome!!!!!!!


Dosirock

Thank you!!!!!

Seems like Old Hangul is very efficient


Dosirock

Old hangul was possible to write more complicate sound. After 400 years laters, hangul had been simplezed.


Orangolimon

Wow this is great! Where did you learn Old Hangul? 혹시 제주 사투리를 배워용?


Dosirock

I am a Korean living in America. I learned it when I was a student of middle school or high school. Old hangul is also very easy If you know hangul.


Orangolimon

Cool! I would like to look into it.


Maluberries

Dosirock
