Beginner Vocabulary (TOPIK 1-2)

Up until now we've covered most of the basic particles, as well as present, past and future tense. In other words we already have the basic in order to start making our own sentences, right ?
Well... kind of~
What we are lacking so far is... VOCABULARY!

In my opinion vocabulary is the most basic thing you will ever need while learning a new language. Even if you are not 100% sure about the grammar points, by knowing the correct/appropriate vocabulary you can "explain" what you need or what you want to say.

Therefore I have combined a set of links to some useful resources for learning vocabulary. With all these words, you are pretty much covered for the first two TOPIK levels.
