Korean

In our Korean lesson today, we were reviewing how to say, "This is not a hospital" in Korean.  After struggling with it for awhile, Noah burst out in exasperation, "When am I ever going to need to say this?"

I said, "Maybe when you're a parent, and your helpless teenager asks you for a bandage, you could say, 'This is not a hospital; get your own bandage!'"

He said, "I could walk into a restaurant and announce, 'This is not a hospital!' I can't see that ever being helpful information for anyone.  In fact, if we're in Korea and I find myself in a situation where I need to say, 'This is not a hospital', I'm just going to go home."
