한글 자음(Korean Consonants)

 

  1. ㄱ (giyeok):
    Pronounced as [k] or [g], similar to the sound in "gate" or "gift." The sound is produced with a slight contact of the back of the tongue against the back of the upper teeth.
  2. ㄴ (nieun):
    Pronounced as [n], like the 'n' in "nose" or "name."
    It's an alveolar nasal where the tongue touches the roof of the mouth to produce the sound.
  3. ㄷ (digeut):
    Pronounced as [t] or [d], akin to the sound of "door" or "dance." It's an alveolar plosive made by placing the tongue against the ridge behind the upper teeth and releasing it.
  4. ㄹ (rieul):
    Pronounced as [r] or [l], depending on its position in the word. It is similar to "lake" or "rice" sounds. This is a liquid sound where the tongue taps the alveolar ridge briefly or can be held against it for a lateral release.
  5. ㅁ (mieum):
    Pronounced as [m], like in "milk" or "moon."
    It's a bilabial nasal sound produced by closing the lips and allowing the air to pass through the nose.
  6. ㅂ (bieup):
    Pronounced as [p] or [b], it can be heard in words like "bus" or "boy." This is a bilabial plosive where the lips come together and then release the air for the sound.
  7. ㅅ (siot):
    Pronounced as [s] or [ʃ], similar to the 's' in "slide" or "sky" and the 'sh' in "shoes" or "shut." It's a sibilant sound produced by directing air toward the teeth.
  8. ㅇ (ieung):
    Has no sound when it starts a syllable but is pronounced as [ŋ] when it ends a syllable, similar to the 'ng' in "king" or "song." It's a velar nasal sound that resonates in the nasal cavity.
  9. ㅈ (jieut):
    Pronounced as [tɕ] or [dʑ], it sounds like a combination of 't' and 'sh' in English, as in "juice" or "jam." It's an alveolo-palatal affricate produced by a fast tongue touch to the mouth's roof.
  10. ㅊ (chieut):
    Pronounced as [tʃ] or [dʒ], it's similar to the 'ch' in "church" or 'j' in "jam." It's a postalveolar affricate made by a fast tongue touch to the roof of the mouth, followed by a fricative release.
  11. ㅋ (kieuk):
    Pronounced as a more robust [k], it's an aspirated sound similar to the 'k' in "kit" but with a puff of air.
  12. ㅌ (tieut):
    Pronounced as a more robust [t], like the 't' in "top," but aspirated with a puff of air.
  13. ㅍ (pieup):
    Pronounced as a more robust [p], similar to the 'p' in "pop," but with an aspirated release.
  14. ㅎ (hieut):
    Pronounced as [h], like the 'h' in "hat" or "hair."
    It's a glottal fricative produced in the throat.
Each sound may change slightly depending on its position in a syllable and the vowels accompanying it.

한글 자음, 모음 창제원리 및 발음, 음절이해 통합(Integration of Hangul consonant and vowel creation principles, pronunciation, and syllable understanding)

  ■ 한글창제의 원리_자음 창제의 원리      (Principles of Hangul Creation_Principles of Consonant Creation) T he Korean alphabet, Hangul, was developed with a unique principle that relates the shapes of its consonants to the parts of the mouth used to pronounce them. Here's a detailed explanation in English to help foreigners learn and appreciate the ingenious design behind Hangul: The consonants in Hangul were initially created to mimic  the shape of the mouth and tongue when making their sounds.  This makes Hangul highly phonetic and easy to learn. For instance: 'ㄱ' is shaped like the tongue blocking the throat, where the sound originates – this sound is known as "Guttural". 'ㄴ' resembles the tongue touching the roof of the mouth, thus called a "Lingual" sound. 'ㅁ' takes the shape of the lips and is called a "Labial" sound. 'ㅅ' looks like the teeth and produces a sound known as "Dental". 'ㅇ' represents the shape of

나이와 연세의 차이(The difference between age and years)

Image
  In Korean culture, the concepts of "age" (나이, "nai") and "years" (연세, "response") are distinct, and understanding this difference is crucial, especially in the context of social interactions and showing respect. 1. Age (나이, "Nai"): The term "나이" refers to the actual age of a person. It's a straightforward count of the number of years since birth. In Korea, age is calculated differently compared to Western cultures. When babies are born, they are considered one year old, and everyone gets a year older on New Year's Day, not their birthday. This is known as the Korean age system. Asking someone’s "나이" is common in Korean social interactions to determine the formality required in speech and behavior. The Korean language has different levels of formality depending on the relative age of the people in the conversation. Example: "나이가 어떻게 되세요?" ("What is your age?") 2. Years (연세, "Yeonse&q
