Tips to remember:
• Associate the sound of "얼굴" (eolgul) with "all-gull" – imagine a seagull with a very distinct facial expression to remind you of the word for face.
• Break it into syllables: “얼” (eol) and “굴” (gul). Think of "eoll" as the start of "elegant" and "gul" like "gullible"—picture someone whose elegant face is hard to fool.
Explanations:
• "얼굴" (eolgul) means face or visage in Korean and is used in everyday conversation.
• It refers not only to the physical features on someone’s head but also, in some expressions, to a person’s reputation or honor (as in “losing face”).
Other words that mean the same thing:
• "안면" (an-myeon) – This term also means face but is less common and more formal or literary.
Alternate meanings (including slang):
• In slang and everyday expressions, "얼굴" can refer to someone’s public image or social standing. For example, someone might say "얼굴 값" (eolgul gap) when referring to the “value” or worth of one's face, meaning their reputation.
• It can also be used idiomatically in expressions like “얼굴이 크다” which might describe someone who is shameless or very bold.
Examples of sentences:
1. 그녀의 얼굴은 매우 아름답다.
(Geunyeoui eolgul-eun maeu areumdapda.)
– Her face is very beautiful.
2. 나는 그 사람의 얼굴을 잊지 못할 것이다.
(Naneun geu saram-ui eolgul-eul itji mothal geosida.)
– I will never forget that person’s face.
3. 친구들이 모여 얼굴을 맞대고 웃었다.
(Chingudeul-i moyeo eolgul-eul matdaego useotda.)
– The friends gathered and laughed with each other face-to-face.
4. 그의 행동은 얼굴값을 못한다.
(Geuui haengdong-eun eolgul gap-eul mothanda.)
– His behavior does not live up to his reputation (face value).
