First Encounter (Part II)

First time meeting part II: Vocabulary

[E] = English
[R] = Romanization
[H] = Hangul

• I'm xxx [E] -- jeo-neun xxx-imnida [R] -- 저는 xxx입니다 [H]
• Pleasure to meet/see you [E] -- bangapseumnida [R] -- 반갑습니다 [H]

Using Them

jeo-neun xxx-imnida(저는  xxx입니다)
When you meet someone, you will have to introduce yourself, and that's for sure. jeo(저) basically has the meaning of "I". And imnida(입니다) basically has the meaning of "am". Literally, the phrase means: I (name) am. Which in the form of English, means I am (name)

E.g.
[H] -- 안녕하세요. 저는 킴한수입니다.
[R] -- annyeong haseyo. jeo-neun Kim HanSu-imnida.
[E] -- Hello. I am Kim HanSu.

Formula: jeo-neun [name]-imnida (저는 [name]-입니다)

Note: 

When you want to tell someone your name, it's up to you to decide. For example, your name is Lyn Lee JungSoo, if you want the person you are meeting to call you Lyn will do, then just say jeo-neun Lyn-imnida (저는 Lyn-입니다). So whatever you want the person to address you, just say that name will do. It's just like saying I am Lyn. So don't worry if there is a standard to this.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

bangapseumnida(반갑습니다)
When you are meeting someone for the first time, you can say bangapseumnida(반갑습니다). However, as bangapseumnida(반갑습니다) means "pleasure/happy to see", you can also use this even though you are not meeting someone for the first time. In order words, you can say this when you saw your friend, probably someone whom you have not seen for quite some time. In English, it would be "It's good to see you".
