Korean Alphabet in 10 Minutes

[vercikovnik]

WAU! this helped me better understand significance of each letter and it's sound!

[Hikiromi]

You forgot the ㅆ

[nachtnite]

Double combined vowel,

과 = ㄱㅗㅏ (g + o + a = goa, Pronounce this quickly at once , then almost 'Gwa' sound.

And adding a consonant at bottom end.

곽 = ㄱㅗㅏㄱ= GOAG = GWAG

앙 ( o = This is only a default null consonant sound which is kinda vowel and its role is just holding at left top consonant position.)

아 = ah =ㅏ(vowel) = ah , both are same sound.

if o is placed bottom end. it becomes 'ng' sound.

앙 = 'ahng

[jheyjuneice]

Omg thank you so much! I always get confused on the vowels but this helped a lot.

[Rhariuchi]

I loved the video. Can't wait for the twenty minute version.

[nanotele]

헐, 이 분, 훈민정음 체계와 우리말의 밝은 소리, 어두운 소리, 맑은 소리, 탁한 소리 이런 걸 이해하고 계시네!

[ShaneNewville]

Thank you! I have the entire alphabet memorized after a few days but this helps me understand things a lot better.

[andristic]

you rushed through this leaving the impression that you don't know what you're talking about

[basnetbarun]

You seem to be very good teaching the phonetics and all. Why don't u make video on english correct pronunciation and phonetics.

[Glossika]

@basnetbarun Done. Click on my channel and watch the current featured video, that video has made tons sales and plenty of TV coverage.

[SkyJack94]

Wow, I've been speaking Korean my entire life but I never knew the letters had so much connection with how its spoken. Thank you for helping me realise that ^^ btw you probably could have done a much better job if you didn't rush this video.

[sir34sky]

helpful, thanks!



[bigbangshangover]

thank you opaa ! hhhh

[ghoststrider45]

Korean = First featural language in world. ^^

[wraspita]

Korean is very easy to start with (alphabet is a very straightforward system, a matrix), but hard to really master (hanja, and some grammar)

From a Korean

[cable8m]

자음: ㄱㄴㄷㄹㅁㅂㅅㅇㅈㅊㅋㅌㅍㅎ

모음: ㅏ,ㅑ,ㅓ,ㅕ,ㅗ,ㅛ,ㅜ,ㅠ,ㅡ,ㅣ

[lildevilxxangel]

thank you so much for making this video :]

[NormanSykes]

original & innovative

[chosop25]

Thanks so much. I am Korean but didn't learn the connection between the shape of the mouth and the letters. Nor did I know about the direction of the sound for the vowels. Thanks for teaching a Korean about her alphabet.

[micstars]

good guy~

[chuxel]

I am Korean and you are not very adequate or efficient enough to teach Korean. It is not a language you pick up easily, it takes a long time to master the language.

[6spdtls]

your explanation is very logical and easy to understand.

[aa3]

Your pronunciation of the letters ㄷ, ㄱ, ㅈ, ㅉ, ㅅ, and ㅂ is incorrect.

[NormanSykes]

@aa3 he says in the video that it is not a pronunciation guide but an alphabet guide

[EnfantTerrible7]

you forgot 'Ssang Shiot' "ㅆ" but you did well!

[LearnKoreanJay]

I hate to say this, but this looks really difficult.

[LearnKoreanJay]

Glossika, Where did you get this idea? Is it from any Korean textbook?

[LearnKoreanJay]

very cooooooooooooooooooooool~

[alan7038]

where r u from

[miniiita]

Thank you!!!!!

[littlebirds12345]

Korean alphabet (Hangul) is very scientific :) Once you start learning, actually this is much simpler than English I think......

[inuboi93]

what's harder? korean or japanese?

[cuteheart11]

@inuboi93 For me korean alphabet is easy to write but hard to memorize becoz of its different pronounciation. Japanese alphabet is hard to write but easy to memorize becoz its just like ur adding vowels in the end of the consonant Ex. Ba bi be bu bo,ka ke ki ko ku easy right? It's like the phil. alphabet(abakada) I'm pilipino.. ^_^ Just study hard... :)

[Magus9653]

@inuboi93 ... oooh... that's a hard question. I think both are harder than Chinese for sure. Maybe Japanese considering the multiple types of readings? I found both to be pretty hard.

[KoriSenbay]

@Magus9653 There are multiple types of readings Umdok (音讀) and Hundok (訓讀) in Korea and the reason why Japanese have it as well is that Japanese writing system came from Korea.

[mamabobo77]

@KoriSenbay

my god, anything have a little to do with Korean are from korean. why don't you say Korean is from Japanese or both from Chinese

[KoreaVANKChannel]

@mamabobo77 Korea is the number two  system

watch?v=lNRUjeQwzWA&feature=ch­annel_video_title

[KoriSenbay]

@inuboi93 Korean writing is easier, Hangul is the only one you should remember. But Japanese writing is harder because you should remember not only Hiragana and Katakana but even Chinese characters in order to read or writing Japanese language. On the other hand, it's said that Korean pronunciation is relatively harder than Japanese.

[sacrisesma]

@KoriSenbay Of course, everything is harder to pronounce than Japanese.

[SarahHall87]

Very complicated.

[jaradori]

Korean vowels represent philosophy of the Asia.

All vowels are combined this three elements.

ㆍ (universe) ㅡ (earth) l (human)

they're combined, and represent the direction of sound, feeling, etc.....

i'd like to recommend somebody a German thesis about the Korean alphabet.

it was really good.

[getreallanguage]

Mike, this is absolutely brilliant! I guess I could call this my first encounter with a featural alphabet. Fascinating. This has got to be one of the coolest writing systems in the world.

[criskity]

In Thai: "a" is to the right of the consonant, "u" is under the consonant. Like Korean!

[latiendadelabruja]

wa... thank u so MUCH!!! this is really helpfull ^^

[knightglory]

[beth2977]

ok Im confused, you say to point your tongue towards the roof of your mouth when sounding ㄴ I was told to put my tongue between my teeth slightly to say ㄴ the same with ㄷ, ㄸ and ㅌ?

[j2g1]
