Difference in the verb ‘to record’

은희 (고마워! 많이 고쳐서):
답답하다 = (lots of things, but the one I learned) you can say it in a situation when, for example, others laugh and you don’t know what they are laughing about.
녹화하다 = to record (a video) (녹음 is to record voice, I accidentally used it when I explained to someone about the video I recorded. Just remember 음 = voice 한자)

KoreanClass101.com:
보고하다 = to report (like to your boss)
보도하다 = to report (news, articles, weather, etc.)
도박하다 = to gamble (my memory technique, is ‘도! Give me my money 박!’ Yeah, sometimes I really stretch it…)

돌려차기 (Spin Kick, K-Movie, review will be coming later):
결승전 = final round (in 대권도)

Drink Till It’s Empty

KoreanClass101.com:
When you drink, you should not fill someone else’s glass until it’s empty.

Turn your head so your boss (or anyone older) won’t have to watch you drinking. This only applies in formal situations, usually your boss will ask you to be more comfortable (though many still turn their head, because it’s considered polite to still do it once you get permission not to). You know, now that I think of it, you see the main character of 엽기적인 그녀 do this when he drinks with his girlfriend’s dad.
