List Of Korean Given Names

There are also names with more than two syllables, often from native Korean vocabulary. Finally, there are a small number of one-syllable names.

Whistle Blower (film)

Hwang's research was discredited and in 2009, a South Korean court convicted him of embezzlement and bioethical violations.

Unisex
Unisex is an adjective indicating something is not sex-specific, i.e. is suitable for any type of sex. The term can also mean gender-blindness or gender neutrality. The term 'unisex' was coined as a neologism in the 1960s and was used fairly informally. The combining prefix ''uni-'' is from Latin ''unus'', meaning ''one'' or ''single''. However, 'unisex' seems to have been influenced by words such as ''united'' and ''universal'', in which ''uni-'' takes the related sense ''shared''. Unisex then means ''shared by sexes''. Examples Hair stylists and beauty salons that serve both men and women are often referred to as unisex. This is also typical of other services and products that had traditionally been separated by sexes, such as clothing shops or beauty products. Public toilets are commonly sex segregated but if that is not the case, they are referred to as unisex public toilets. Unisex clothing includes garments like T-shirts; versions of other garments may be tailored for the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
