i know this is like my 10th post today
but its because i think these things are just worth posting
i guess
well this one is about my language
Korean writing was created in 1446 by Sejong the Great, a king from Joseon dynasty
Sejong is respected by Koreans for finding the writing system that is still in use today and many other innovations
studies have shown that Korean writing is one of the easiest writing in Asia although classified to be one of the hardest in US, studies have found different among asians
scholars in Korea brought everyday people from different asian countries and found that with only 4 hours of instruction these people were able to write and understand simple korean words
compared to other asian language which required more time
according to studies, King Sejong created the writing to be simple on purpose for poor subjects
before Korean writing was invented, korean subjects used chinese characters which was very difficult to learn especially for the lower class who could not afford education
to solve this problem King Sejong created the writing simple enough for even the lower class to learn
now why does this matter?
if kings with absolute power can be so caring about their subjects
why cant the government today do the same?
i choose sejong as example cause i saw a documentary on tv about him
and people say you cant learn anything from tv
