Hello, I am looking for resources on roots, prefixes, and suffixes while learning Korean vocabulary. While studying art-related words, I noticed that some words share similar endings or roots, and I found it confusing to investigate how each syllable combines into a word. For example, words like 미술 (art) and 미한 (Korea and beauty). According to the information I found, '미' means 'beauty' and '술' means 'art' or 'skill,' but I don't quite understand how 'beautiful art' is interpreted as '미술.' Could you recommend any resources or books that explain these aspects? This method has been very helpful for me in learning Korean. If you have any related materials or book recommendations, I would greatly appreciate it.
