i find it amazing how quickly he found the explanation for ㅁ and ㄴ pronunciation because learners struggle with that so much when hearing it the first time
To be honest, the phonetics of this language caught me off guard quite frequently. It's a bit counter-intuitive at first, but it seems somewhat simple once you get used to it.
@@jccbm yeah starting learning alone is quite difficult but once you learned the basics it goes really well learning about the fundamentals of the language
As a phonologist your pronunciations of languages are amazing! I'm binging all your videos now. When you mentioned phonology and phonemes I was like this dude knows shit hahaha There are some very intricate intricacies (?? phonetic details cmon) that you picked out, for example how ㄷ sounds like a hard t at the beginning (it is aspirated but low tone) and how ㅁㄴ can sound like b/d (there's this thing called denasalisation). Also you're a natural at figuring grammar stuff too. Subscribed!
16:30 As a native korean myself, the difference between "안녕히 가세요"means The Person is going back to home and "안녕히 계세요" means U r going back to home or whatever
Your channel is so underrated for having so much effort being put into everything, I just love how I could just watch and just like learn some new things about different languages while being entertained, thank you for like Giga chading through this, and I hope some day more people will stumble across your videos :]
Wow, thank you! That's been the aim lately, to learn and share the knowledge while trying to be somewhat entertaining. The channel is slowly but steadily growing though, but thanks a lot for your good wishes!
In early modern korean, ㅚ(oe) was pronounced as ö and ㅟ(wi) was pronounced as ü. But now there is little distinction between 웨, 외, 왜 (they are almost all pronounced 'we').
First of all very entertaining video! Loved watching it (probably more because I'm a Korean xD) Just wanted to comment this cuz you struggled with the final consenents- The only consenents that can be pronounced at the end are ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅇ and all other consenents get changed to one of those. ㅅ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅌ, ㅍ, ㅎ are pronounced as ㄷ, ㄱ, ㄲ, ㅋ are pronounced as ㄱ, and all other consenents are pronounced as what they sound like when at the front. It's quite intuitive for a native but I do imagine it being really confusing for learners ;) Also, your pronunciation at 7:00 was like literally perfect wtf
People who claim the Korean letters are easy to pick up must wind up with some horrendous pronunciation in real street-language at a natural pace, if they think their verbal counterparts have more that a passing approximation.
I can't hear the difference between Korea aspirated and non-aspirated consonants. Then the vowel stuff is also too similar unless I can compare them almost immediately after the other. I want to say Hindi was the same for me. So if I feel like a real challenge down the road, those languages will really teach me how to hear subtle sounds.
Yeah, picking up these subtle differences in the middle of regular speech is quite hard, I struggled a lot too. Sometimes it just comes out naturally given the other letters nex to them.
I enjoyed this a lot. As a person who is learning Korean and trying to learn as many languages as possible, it was interesting to see someone who doesn't have much experience prior try to speedrun the language. 😂 Definitely subscribing and coming back for more videos!
@@jccbm Yeah. Something I've noticed is that eventually once you get used to the lettering and start learning more, you pick up on more things as you go.
@@maxlovesk-pop Yeah, there's many intimidating barricades at first (some sounds are quite alien for an english speaker, subject-object markers, etc) that aren't really that big a deal once you get used to them.
Really depends on the language and how much time I put into editing (which is basically a slow and repetitive review). I've got some content planned to see how much I remember, since I'm also curious 🤣
As a Spanish speaker, I'm heavily biased into Italian and Portuguese as the easiest ones. In a vacuum, i still think Italian is pretty easy. Portuguese too but maybe a bit less.
The consonant going at the last are usually pronounced differently when it's alone itself but when there is an another word starting with a vowel it is pronounced correctly. Kinda like french where s is only pronounced before a vowel. Plus as a native Korean I literally found so many mispronunciations on duolingo like for instance, 도넛의 맛's "s" aren't pronounced d but rather pronounced just s
6:02 Certainly right lol. As to explain, all end sounds are changed to any of ㄱ(k/g),ㄴ(n),ㄷ(t/d),ㄹ(l),ㅁ(m),ㅂ(p/b),ㅇ(ng). What consonant is will be changed is primarily determined by the original consonant itself, but can be changed more by interacting with the following syllable. ㄱ
for recognizing sounds and differences in pronunciation. also to accelerate reading speed. if an english word is written in hangul, you should be able to instantly recognize it
@@jakelefkowitz4570 the konglish is only in the beginning lessons, he barely scratched the surface of material. tbh tho i’m not really pro-duolingo i think it’s rather shit i’m just explaining why it’s that way
I know this is late, but I have some tips for Korean pronunciation. I will go over the letter names so you can have a good tip for pronouncing beginning and end sounds. ㅅ - Siot is pronounced like a softer "s" or an "sh" at the beginning of a syllable, and then a "t" at the end. SOOO the way I like to do it is look at the starting letter of siot and the end letter. s at the beginning, t at the end. You would pronounce it like the ch in chicago. more of an sh sound than a direct s sound. ㄷ - Digeut is the same thing. It is a softer "d" at the beginning, and then a "t" at the end. "D"igeu"T" This one cuts short at the end, but it can be pronounced in certain words (if i remember correctly) ㄸ - Ssang Digeut is pronounced like a hard T at the beginning and end of a syllable. ㅆ - Ssang siot is also the same thing. This time though, it is a harder "S" (more emphasis) at the beginning, and t at the end. ㄹ - Rieul is kind of like an "r", though not really. It is kind of between an "R" and an "L" sound. So you would basically pronounce the "L" sound (tongue just behind your front teeth when pronouncing it), and then shape your lips and mouth as if you were pronouncing an "R". ㄱ - Giyeok is like of like a G or K at the beginning, and a definite K at the end. Usually you would cut the K sound short at the end of a syllable. SO when you pronounce 감사합니다. You would pronounce 감 as an in between of "Gam" and "Kam" but not a hard "K" sound. ㄲ - Ssang Giyeok is pronounced like a hard K sound at the start and end of a syllable. ㅁ - Mieum as you said sounds like a "B". That is actually false. The sound is pretty much an "M" sound. The only reason it sounds like a B is because it is a nasal letter. But it is still pronounced as M, but maybe a bit softer depending on the word. I am not great at explaining the sound of mieum other than sounding like an M all the time. ㅈ - Jieut is pronounced like a "J" at the begging. Kind of like the J in John. Not strong, but not soft. Try to do an in between of a soft and hard J. It has the J sound at the beginning and the T sound at the end. ㅉ - Ssang Jieut is pronounced like a hard J at the beginning, and a TCH sound at the end. Start is like the J in just or joke, and the end is like the TCH in catch or batch. ㅊ - Chieut is pronounced like a CH at the beginning of a syllable and a T at the end of a syllable. ㅂ - Bieup is pronounced like a mix of "B" and "P" at the start of a syllable, and a "P" at the end of a syllable. The only exception is with consonant assimilation (which im sure as hell not explaining since it is painful with the amount of exceptions that shit has). This one also cuts short at the end, but sometimes it is pronounced in certain words. ㅃ - Ssang Bieup is pronounced like a hard P sound at the start and end of a syllable. Kind of like a plosive but without the spitting. ㅍ - Pieup is pronounced like a P at the start and end of a syllable. ㅋ - Kieuk is pronounced like a standard K sound such as the K in kill or kind. K sound at start and end of syllable. ㅌ - Tieut is pronounced like a T (not hard or soft). Kind of like the T in time or tank. ㅎ - Hieut is pronounced like an H at start and end of syllable. I would go into vowels, but that would be too long.
@@YaguiKippis Yeah. I remember him announcing a final stream to get the rest of the languages a few weeks ago. Shortly after Duolingo changed, and I thought, "I hope he got through the last one. I would suck to have a series and a few don't have the 1st checkpoint format."
9:18 had me dying, that is possibly my favorite video of all time. Just started learning Korean which I think led to this video being recommended to me, you are hilarious and you editing is top notch, glad I found you.
I'm half Korean and I get so mad when Korea uses borrowed english for words they have. Like 화이트 다이아몬드 (white diamond), is supposed to be 흰/하얀 (both meaning white) and diamond is 금강석
dont beat yourself up about not being able to understand it, duolingo is infamous with korean learners cause it doesnt explain *shit* none of the particles like 는/은, 가/이, 의 are explained on their own, and sentence endings like 습니다/ㅂ니다... they dont even show how verbs and adjectives have a dictionary form (-다) but hey, i guess if youre just learning for a speedrun, maybe you dont have to know it that deep
Korean is tough af... I can speak Chinese, Vietnamese, and English, I also used to know German and Russisn... the only language I've given up on was Korean, because of how challenging it was

Just wanted to comment this cuz you struggled with the final consenents-
The only consenents that can be pronounced at the end are
ㄱ, ㄴ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅁ, ㅂ, ㅇ and all other consenents get changed to one of those.
ㅅ, ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅌ, ㅍ, ㅎ are pronounced as ㄷ,
ㄱ, ㄲ, ㅋ are pronounced as ㄱ,
and all other consenents are pronounced as what they sound like when at the front.
It's quite intuitive for a native but I do imagine it being really confusing for learners ;)
Also, your pronunciation at 7:00 was like literally perfect wtf
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Yeah it's weird at first, but once you get the hang of it it's not that hard.
People who claim the Korean letters are easy to pick up must wind up with some horrendous pronunciation in real street-language at a natural pace, if they think their verbal counterparts have more that a passing approximation.
Copy pasting your comment into my notes because I'm currently in the quagmire of learning end consonants and this was incredibly helpful XD Thank you!
Also called 음절의 끝소리 규칙, it's a rule

Yeah, picking up these subtle differences in the middle of regular speech is quite hard, I struggled a lot too. Sometimes it just comes out naturally given the other letters nex to them.
B/P, D/T, R/L, Are actually mixed sounds so like in Busan, the B actually will sound like B to some and P to others but is kind of both LOL
Yeah, it's a bit confusing. So is R/L in other Asian languages
i swear d isn’t? because they have their own letters ㄷ ㅌ, and the letter ‘s’ ㅅ is often used as a ‘t’
Your editing skill is great 😃

I would go into vowels, but that would be too long.
you can create letters like 쀍, 꽑, 촟 in hangul(Korean writing system)
English has literally more vowel sounds than Korean (26). And if we don't count the "y" and "w" "vowels", it's only 8 (a, u, i, e, o, eo, ue and ae).
True, but written English is stupid and only has 5 (or 6*)
@@jccbm what's the 6th? y?
How does your brain just comprehend this.
5:40 Exception, normally ㄷ is more like a d, but if it's placed on the bottom like that, it's pronounced more like a t.
