Korean Lesson 3: Hangul Part 3: Basic Syllables 2

[piquelilya]

( ㅏ ) and ( ㅓ ) are the same •_• !!

[KoreanLanguageNerd]

@piquelilya no not at all "ㅏ" equals "a" and "ㅓ" is one of two "o" similar to the "u" in cut

[babyyneekyy]

@pepperonpaper there is no difference between ㅐ and ㅔ they are both pronounced the same way :) they used to be pronounce different but over the years ppl pronounce it the same

I dont get why theirs a lot of characters? Where is the Alphabet cuz i wanna learn how to write in Korean Hangul?

[KoreanLanguageNerd]

@kyla1ful I thought I made it clear if you start with video 1, hangul is an alphabet but single letters have to be put to syllable blocks containing at least one initial consonant and one vowel 노 (no) is ㄴ(n) + ㅗ(o) it is not possible to just write from left to right, like we do, ㄴㅗ makes no sense, understood?

[MonaeJohnson]

so the 2 looking thing is pronouced with the D sound rather than L cause it is used as an L in Hangul 한글.

[KoreanLanguageNerd]

@MonaeJohnson so I guess u refer to the ㄹ it's actually pronounced similar to the English "R" in, but not made at the back of your throat, rather than with the tip of your tongue like a "D". Also consonants sound sometimes different (depending on the consonant) at initial position or final one. If the ㄹ is at the final position as in 한글 it sounds like "L"

[KoreanLanguageNerd]

@MonaeJohnson I guess u talk about this symbol: ㄹ

if it is a the initial position if a syllable block like 라 [ra] 로[ro] it is almost pronounced like "R" but if it is at the final position of a syllable block like 칼[khal] 글[guel] it is pronounced like "L" in English.

How to pronounce word in 5:46 and 5:48?

Anyway, I cant hear clearly what you are saying, so you might wanna spell it out for us and slow down.

thank you very much :)

[lwiza2000]

wow shukran chingo

[KoreanLanguageNerd]

First thx nice to hear that^^

Second you should probably consider another book, don't take it offensive but something like that is quiet essential, try books from sogang, yonsei, koryo, SNU, they are good and have a consistent series (that's not a commercial ;-) there many other good books to)

Third the order yes it's not standard textbook I know, but I don't think it changes anything important. And the Text-book-order is anyway already in the textbook.

[WanderingTimelord]

Wow, this is great! I think it's really good that you teach how 이 plus 아 gives 야. Most textbooks don't explain that 야 includes 이, which often confuses my students when we get to 샤 and 셔 (just for example). My only complaint is that the vowels are out of order; aren't they usually written 아 야 어 여 오 요 우 유 so that the mouth gets progressively smaller at each stage? Anyway, thanks for posting!
