Annyeonghaseyo! In this episode, we will learn how to say
'Bon appétit' and 'Thank you for the meal!' 
in Korean. When you start a meal,
we say, "Jal mug get sum ni da".
"Jal mug get sum ni da".
The literal translation of 'Jal mug get sum 
ni da' is 'jal' is well. 'Mug get sum ni da' is
'We will eat well', it is a future tense so literally
it means, 'I will eat well". Now, you've finished the meal
and you say 'Thank you for the meal!', we say,
"Jal mug gut sum ni da". "Jal
mug gut sum ni da". "Jal mug gut
sum ni da". "Jal mug gut sum ni da". The literal translation of
'Jal mug gut sum ni da' is 'Jal'
is well. 'Mug gut sum ni da' is
ate, so it is the past tense. So it literally
means
"I ate well". "Jal mug gut sum ni da"
In summary, when food is ready
and you're about to start eating, you say
"Jal mug get sum ni da"
and after you finished
eating, you say to the host, "Jal mug get sum ni da".
"Jal mug get sum ni da". "Jal mug get sum ni da".
When you're having meals with people older than you,
you should not start your meal until
the eldest persons starts,
otherwise, people find you rude or
bad mannered. So, even thought you're are very hungry,
you have to wait until the eldest person starts first. Thank you!
Gamsahabnida!
