은/는 vs. 이/가
제가 학생이에요. 이름이 민수예요.
저는 학생이에요. 이름은 민수예요.
은/는 sets the topic or draws a contrast; 이/가 points at the subject, often new information.
Korean asks you to pick a speech level before you can finish a sentence, and textbooks rarely tell you whether you picked right. FluenText corrects the Korean you text — particles, endings and honorifics — against the register you chose for that chat.
The errors that survive years of study, because nobody in a real conversation stops to correct them.

선생님, 어디 가?
선생님, 어디 가세요?
Casual endings with someone senior read as rude, however friendly you meant it.
할머니가 밥을 먹었어요.
할머니가 진지를 드셨어요.
Some verbs have separate honorific forms — 먹다 becomes 드시다, 자다 becomes 주무시다.
오늘 바빠서 안 가요.
오늘 바빠서 못 가요.
안 is chosen not to; 못 is cannot. Being busy makes it 못.
No lessons, no streak of flashcards. Just the conversations you would be having anyway.
Set a chat's language to Korean and message a friend who speaks it. No one to practice with? Open a chat with an AI conversation partner that replies at your level.
Your Korean is checked as you send it. Mistakes come back highlighted right against your own sentence, tagged by category, with a clear explanation.
Ask why a correction happened, how to say something more politely, or what a phrase means. The coach reads the thread and answers inline.
Pick casual, polite or formal for a chat and FluenText grades your endings against it. On auto it will not guess your relationship with the other person — but it still catches a message that mixes 해요 and 한다 in one breath.
