The phrases
저는 커피하고 빵을 좋아해요
jeoneun keopihago ppangeul joahaeyo
I like coffee and bread
하고 = and. It clips straight onto the first noun and never changes shape, whether that noun ends in a consonant or a vowel.
친구하고 같이 가요
chinguhago gachi gayo
I'm going with a friend
하고 also means 'with' when what it joins is a person. 같이 (together) usually tags along, though the sentence works without it.
저는 친구랑 영화를 봐요
jeoneun chingurang yeonghwareul bwayo
I watch films with a friend
(이)랑 is the casual 하고. 랑 after a vowel (친구랑), 이랑 after a consonant (동생이랑). Very common in speech, rare in writing.
빵과 우유 주세요
ppanggwa uyu juseyo
Bread and milk, please
와/과 is the formal 하고: 과 after a consonant (빵과), 와 after a vowel (우유와). You will read it far more often than you say it.
엄마한테 전화해요
eommahante jeonhwahaeyo
I call my mum
한테 = to (a person). Never 에 for people — 에 is for places. The written equivalent is 에게.
친구한테 선물을 줘요
chinguhante seonmureul jwoyo
I give my friend a present
친구한테 (to whom) 선물을 (what) 줘요 (verb). Korean is happy to drop any part that's obvious — 줘요 alone is a whole sentence.
저한테 주세요
jeohante juseyo
Give it to me
저한테 = to me. Casually it's 나한테. Same particle, politer pronoun.
아홉 시부터 여섯 시까지 일해요
ahop sibuteo yeoseot sikkaji ilhaeyo
I work from nine to six
부터 = from, 까지 = until. They almost always travel as a pair, over time or over distance: 서울부터 부산까지.
주말마다 산에 가요
jumalmada sane gayo
I go to the mountains every weekend
마다 = every. 날마다 every day, 아침마다 every morning, 주말마다 every weekend. No space, no extra particle.
동생이랑 놀아요
dongsaengirang norayo
I hang out with my younger sibling
동생 ends in a consonant, so it takes 이랑. 놀다 is 'to play' — adults use it too, for hanging out.
