Let's go over some of your responses!

1. "내 한국어는 그냥 괜찮아!" (nae han-guk-eo neun geu-nyang gwen-chan-a)

This sentence is great because you understood perfectly what the meaning of the word is! However, I'd love to give you some feedback to make it sound more accurate (instead of translated).

So! Firstly, it seems like you wanted to say "My Korean is just okay" But it's important to realize the context of the words. The phrase that you're looking for when saying "just okay" is 그냥 평범 해(geu-nyang pyeong-beom-hae)! The phrase you used "그냥 괜찮아" doesn't imply "just okay" in the most natural way because 괜찮아 is more towards a positive side while is 평범해 more neutral! (It means normal/mediocre)

ALSO while it makes sense to say "My Korean" or "My English" in English, it doesn't really translate well. It sounds like it is literally your language SO I would suggest changing the phrase 내 한국어는 to "내 한국어 실력은, 실력 (shil- ryeok) means ability or skill!

Overall: I'd make the sentence "내 한국어 실력은 그냥 평범해"

But still 10/10 because you used the word 그냥 PERFECTLY! Just some tips to make you even better~!!!! Great job and thank you so much for sharing your response

-) 저는 그냥 학교에 안 가고 싶어요 (jeo-neun geu-nyang hag-gyo-e an ga-go sip-eo-yo)

This is a great example of using 그냥 because it also captures the meaning and context of the word perfectly! Imagine someone asking you "Why don't you want to go to school" you can respond with this to say "I just don't want to go to school." If you want to make it more casual, you can say "그냥 학교 안 가고 싶어요!" (You can take out the 에 in this context).


Hope that helps~!
