Korean Facts
The classification of the modern Korean language is not certain - it has elements of an Altaic language, Japanese, Chinese, and some languages of the Eastern Turkic group
Most of Korea's dialects have a close connection with the regions of Korea, since boundaries are often determined by mountains and seas
Korea has many dialects, though the standard language of South Korea is based on that spoken around Seoul, the capital; the standard for North Korea is the dialect spoken around P'yongyang
