Korean Test



Here's a test for myself to see if this blog is actually being read.

Before the YOG hols, I gave my Level 1 students Term 2 test. Being the evil teacher that I am, I had purposefully put ONE question I predicted half the students will not get right. *snigger*

And indeed, less than half the students got the answer. A few gave 2 answers, still wrong wrong.

It's not a difficult question. It's just that from experience, I know this question will NEVER fail to fail students.
Don't worry, most students passed the test.

Here's your chance to take a shot at it. You shouldn't google or check the dictionary, but I wouldn't know...

The answer has four letters. (It's written as 3 letters sometimes, but 4 is my magic number.)

Here's THE question:
Write Singapore in Hangul.

In case you wonder, Singapore is where I live, where my students live.
Scroll to the end and there's the list of wrong answers.
