My first hurdle was figuring out that you don't "play" (놀다) or "do" (하다) Baduk, you "put" (두다) Baduk.

Korean Baduk phrases
I'm learning a little Korean and I'm interested in learning some Baduk related phrases. There is a page on Senseis for Korean Terms (http://senseis.xmp.net/?KoreanGoTerms), but it doesn't have full phrases (I added 2). Does anyone know a place where you can find simple examples? Or maybe someone can add some more examples to what I started?

Re: Korean Baduk phrases
Do you know that this book exists?
Contemporary Go Terms
Author: Chiyung, Nam
Year: 2007
ISBN: 89-900-7924-1
Price: $43.00
The book essentially has lengthy explinations in english of each term, which sometimes includes diagrams. Then there is a cross-reference for those terms in english, korean, chinese, and japanese.
It's the only dictionary I've ever read cover-to-cover.

Aha thanks Herman, the "more Korean" sub-page has a lot of examples. Looks like they came from a dictionary search that includes example sentences. http://dic.impact.pe.kr/ecmaster-cgi/se ... &kwd=baduk I was trying to do this on http://endic.naver.com but only got a few examples.
rubin, "Contemporary Go Terms" looks like a good book, but I'm just a beginner in Korean so it would probably be a little beyond me for now.
jts, yes that's the problem. You can look up "play", "hoops", and "shoot" in a dictionary but you still might not know that shoot/hoops go together instead of play/hoops.
I'm going through the usual beginner materials to learn grammar/vocabulary. Most books focus on things like school/students or business/travel situations. I'd like to add some examples that are interesting for me -- Baduk examples!

You sure bout that...

I welcome Korean baduk terms becoming popular. Korea has the most interest in spreading baduk to the west, anyway. We should recognize that.
