Korean Reading Practice for Beginners #3

[mj71838]

Ok, here is what I understood !

I know that we write consonants+ vowels just like 가 ,, which is ㄱ +ㅏ ... right !

well, in this video you add consonants+ vowels + consonants, like this 산 for ex .. right ?!!!

so we have to know how read each one ,, RIGHT ?!

[koreanclass101]

@mj71838 Hi. It seems like you understand correctly : ) If you know the pronunciation for each consonant and vowel, then you can assemble them to pronunciate the words like 산 or 가. : )

[TheNorwegianChibi]

Where did the consonant on this syllable 가 come from, since I don't think we learned it on the first lesson? Is there more than 14 consonants, like those we learned are just the basics?

[TheNorwegianChibi]

@TheNorwegianChibi Is it the same as ㄱ?

[koreanclass101]

@TheNorwegianChibi That's right. Korean chracters are like puzzling. We've covered ㄱ and ㅏin the previous lessons, and 가 is the combination of ㄱ and ㅏ.

[TheNorwegianChibi]

@koreanclass101 Ok, thanks! But if I write ㄱㅏ instead of 가 is it wrong? Really appreciating your videos!

[hero3bash]

i can't figure out what happens to the 'L' consonant when it's on the bottom. what sound is it?

[koreanclass101]

@hero3bash When it goes on the bottom, it sounds like 'N'.

[animeGAmer131]

yay!!! at first its hard to understand but now I got It!!! huhu!!

[xXglittterwitchXx]

this isnt even helping me!!!D:

[950SilverStar]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

KAMSAMNIDA!

[tokee1234567]

@950SilverStar gamsahamnida or kamsahamnida is the correct way to write it

[cariahbel]

if you dont get it then you can go to seemile.com and she'll teach you the basics :)

thats what i did and now i understand this better.

[Vjrhuel4]

annyeng haseyo =) may i know the other consonants?

[iheartbong]

@Vjrhuel4 ahnyang kaseyo! (guess what that means :p)

[tokee1234567]

@iheartbong um either you meant to say "annyung-hee gaseyo" or just "annyeong."

[iheartbong]

@tokee1234567 I was learning from a lady next door to me and I kept pronouncing G like G not K, that was my first mistake. Sounded like goodbye was "annyeng Kaseyo", but I see what you are writing and it makes more sense. :)

[ilazernerd]

@tokee1234567 I think he means annyeong haseyo.

[zhs2008]

cant move 2 the next lesson unless i get this one...lol

[zhs2008]

this part is really hard but i will get it...lol!!!!!!!

[xxxmiracle20]

its actually better to not have the roman characters because that way you can actually focus on the characters themselves and actually recognize them

[1gotseoul]

On another Korean language lesson the ㅊ is ALWAYS 'ch' sound but you said down below that it can be 't' like sound, if it's on the bottom. I'm little confused. Can you show me an example of it as 't' on the bottom? Thank you. Love your videos. Keep it coming.

[tokee1234567]

@1gotseoul

most consonants have a T sound at the bottom.

except for ㄱ,ㄴ, ㄹ, ㅇ....ㅋ(rare for bottom consonant)

ㅅ,ㅆ,ㅊ,ㅈ,ㅍ,ㅌ, all sound like a T at the bottom

the thing is if the next letter has a ㅇfor beginning consonant= it's a silent consonant and takes the sound of the previous bottom consonant (or the one on the right if it is a double bottom consonant)

팔이 - pa-ri

찾- chat

찾아 - cha-ja

[urstu69]

it sounds like Thailand :P

[barfgreenrulz]

how do you say hello formally in Korean?

[TheAkinez]

@barfgreenrulz  annyong haseyo

[1997DoNovan]

@barfgreenrulz annyeonghaseyo

[mizzcatcher]

what is the letter on 0:36 ? the one at the top beside the a.

[rasyidrazak]

@mizzcatcher Which one were you referring to? 참 (Cham) or 잠 (Jam)? =)

[sirfat25138]

question!!! whats the letter in 0:26, the one at the bottom, i copied the consonants.. but uhh.. i can't seem to find it in my "notes" huwahaha

[dasaf]

its a gee geut it makes a gee sound

[rasyidrazak]

@sirfat25138 Were you referring to 날 (Nal) or 낮 (Nat)?

[sirfat25138]

낮 <-- this one, but isn't that supposed to be "Naj"?

[rasyidrazak]

It's written as "Naj" but is pronounced as "Nat". When "ㅈ" is at the end of a character, it'll produce a "t" sound instead of "j". Hope that helps!

[sirfat25138]

how bout like in the number 3 "net", is it really spelled with the "s" sound on the bottom of the syllable block?

[dnwndls]

cum in cup

[mandy2701]

i can only remember vowels

but not those consonants T_T

[blueasiana]

i don't get why the pronounciation for 낮 is nat ?

i have also seen something like those and pronounced --t .

can someone help me about it ?

[fredma123]

Let me think... When on the bottom,

ㅈㄷㅅㅎㅌㅊ all have a 't'-like sound. I say t-like because your tongue is in between your upper and lower teeth, not on the ridge behind your teeth.

The only exception is ㅅ has a 's' sound when it's on the bottom when the next syllable has eitherㅅorㅇas the beginning consonant.

[LollipopWay]

im lost when im at this video @@

[xMirax]

i wish we had the roman characters written underneath or next to the hangul characters :(

[fredma123]

Also, I understand that you would like the romanization, but I think the point of these videos are so you don't need the romanization. Just see the character and listen and repeat. You'll get it with practice.

[atiksful]

@xMirax yeah..luckily i learnt video that has romanization beside the basic characters first..

[katesmeow]

@xMirax roman characters get in the way for me, because i see them and want to read them like they're read in english, only that's only vaguely close to how the hangul is really pronounced. it's easier to start from scratch with reading these i think...

[trixchialoveskimchi]

wait.., "o" is an empty sound but why does it sound like mg when she reads it???

[SophiaNguyen1]

it changes to ng when its on the bottom

[trixchialoveskimchi]

oh..., ok

[KOREANMANS]

very good practice really but these are very simple words ^^

[iKyoxTohru]

@0:17

I'm confused.

Why is it read like "k[/g]ang"? it looks like it would be just ka[/ga]. 강? I think that's what it is.

And :27

Why it is pronounced like "nat/nad"? 낮?

I'm having a little trouble with pronouncing some of these.

Can someone help?

[DragonBlessing]

For "K/gang" the "null" consonant, when placed after a vowel would produce a "-ng" sound.

[iKyoxTohru]

Oh, heh. I figured it out. But thanks so much for replying!

[gabrielle1017]
