Enjoying table tennis again!

[JackFH]

A while ago I posted on here to say I was getting frustrated with myself now I'm buzzing! Start of the league season I'd won something like 1 out of 6, I should have at least won 4 more. Admittedly I was coming back from a back injury but was o frustrated one match and Id never done this before, I gave up, lost 4 4 and 6. Then one of the other juniors started playing for us. I've since beaten those I lost to and now average is shooting up after bad start. Most matches I've lost since have gone to 5. I'm still yet to find this form in my own age group though I did take a game and got close in another against county no.1!

I like that 'Jeul-Tak'.

That is a slang work made by Korean TT players. It really doesn't exist in a real dictionary. They made up a noun of this and also turned in into a verb used in online TT forums in Korea.

"Jeul" comes form the verb Jeul-Geop-Da (means enjoy) and "Tak" comes from Tak-Ku (Table Tennis).

So the word Jeul-Tak means to enjoy TT. it is now exclusively used as a verb, usually in command form, kinda like in English like this.

"Hey Jack, you be sure to "Jeul-Tak" meaning "Hey Jack, you keep on enjoying TT" You see a lot of talk like that on a Korea TT forum nowadays.
