Translating Korean By Yourself.

[sixtwentyseven]

I think most of us aren't Korean in here and we have lots of problems trying to understand what does these characters mean.

Well, my process of trying to understand those characters is a bit long winded, but when help is not around, anything goes:

Tools I Use:

1. Google Translate
2. Typing out Korean Chars for Google to translate:

Usually what I'd do is to write it out on a piece of paper before using the website to type it out. Normal Korean chars is written firstly a Consonant, followed by a Vowel before ending with a Consonant. There are also some chars which consist only of one Consonant and a Vowel.

Hope this little piece of information will help in a way, especially when help is not available at all~

The problem is that translators are kind of off. And by kind of, I mean that they can have something like 'hello' translate to 'eat'. Things like that. It'd be okish until you learn some korean though.

another simple way to translate things yourself is to use clues in-game.

For example, for an unkown scroll (lets say 투구 방아력 60%), look at your own equipment and try to find what equipment matches the one on the scroll (move your mouse over a hat and you'll find that it's a 투구). You can use clues such as this to help you translate some of the simpler korean.

Use world map if you don't know the name of a town, use stat window if you don't know what a certain stat is, etc.
