Topics by Frequency for Newly Changed Topics is a Korean grammar textbook for foreign learners preparing for the TOPIK Korean Language Proficiency Test.
The existing one-volume, frequency-based topic-intermediate grammar has been revised and supplemented to fit the newly changed topic types.


Many learners complain of various difficulties when studying a topic.
In particular, there are many cases where people do not know what grammar is frequently tested on the TOPIK and which of the many grammars encountered on the TOPIK are important.
For learners struggling with these issues, this book provides a clear overview of the grammar items they need to know for the TOPIK exam, organized by frequency.
If you study step by step from the first page, you can study the grammar that appears frequently on the test, and if you study the low-frequency grammar items, you can aim for a high score.


[Features of this book]
1.
Each chapter presents a grammar item and its function.
2.
Representative examples are provided to help you better understand the meaning of grammar along with explanations of the meaning of grammar.
Additionally, when there are two meanings, each meaning is explained by dividing it into ① and ②, and representative examples for each meaning are also provided.
3.
In Let's Learn More, we present the changes in form and points to note for grammar items.
In terms of things to note, grammatical restrictions and interchangeable grammar are presented with examples.
4.
In Alsongdalsong, grammar terms with similar forms and meanings are compared to enable the distinction of differences in usage and meaning.
To help learners understand more easily, tables have been included, and explanations for examples have also been provided.
5.
Practice problems allow learners to practice on their own to see if they have understood each grammar item well.
6. In the TOPIK practice questions, questions are presented in the same format as the actual TOPIK exam to help students prepare for it.
