i cant use it, i dont have the “A” thingy but i have a “x” and it says IME is disabled
Hi Hyera, it shows “A” icon when we have the cursor where can type e.g. notepad, URL bar, or even this comment editor.
So, was asking if you could check when you are trying to type something.

thank you for the steps but the thing is when I type “ㅈㅗㅛ ㅑㄴ 녿 ㄴㅁㅇ” it will translate into why is she said instead of why is she sad
Pleasure! 😉
After we enable Korean Input Method, the rest would be following the writing rules:
1. Everything starts with a consonant (so, words can’t be started with vowels, like ㅏ ㅑ ㅣ ㅔ ㅕ 등등)
2. Two consonants can be consecutive only in case of as bachim e.g. 넓다 잛다 등등 (So, ㅁㅇ doesn’t work as it’s not at bachim position)
3. Not sure why ㅈ ㅗ didn’t work (when you type continuously it should be written as 조 no spaces or spaces then backspaces while writing 🙂
4. & no consecutive vowels either 🙂
Not too sure if I missed something, still Hope this helps!
Let me know if you still hit any issues while typing, would be glad to help.
And, sorry, didn’t get what we are trying to convey in Korean, so was asking if you could elaborate.
Also, one quick tools suggestion (I used it when I started learning Korean & I still use it till date) – You can try Papago translator along the way whenever you want to translate something, and as you pick more words and grammer, you can rely less on the Translators 🙂
Very good.
Thanks, means a lot ^^
