Numbers
Similar to English, there are two different ways to use Korean numbers, as cardinal numbers or as ordinal numbers. Cardinal numbers refer to numbers you use to count with; such as 3 black belts, or 5 kicks. Ordinal numbers refer to something in an order, like your 3rd soolgi technique, or a 1st degree black belt. The counting numbers are used exactly as they sound, while the ordinal numbers can be used in conjuntion with other phrases, such as e-dan referring to 2nd degree black belt, or e-jun referring to a first and second target.
