ㄱ·ㄲ·ㅋ·ㄳ·ㄺ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㄱ(k)’, ㄴ·ㄵ·ㄶ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㄴ(n)’, ㄷ·ㅅ·ㅆ·ㅈ·ㅊ·ㅌ·ㅎ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㄷ(t)’, ㄹ·ㄼ·ㄽ·ㄾ·ㅀ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㄹ(l)’, ㅁ·ㄻ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㅁ(m)’, ㅂ·ㅍ·ㄿ·ㅄ as Batchims are pronounced ‘ㅂ(p)’, and ㅇ as a Batchim is pronounced ‘ㅇ(ng)’. It is called ‘음절의 끝소리 규칙(the rule of the last sound in a syllable)’. There are a few exceptions in this rule. I've translated them too(February 6, 2016). 1. If the stem of a predicative word ends with ‘ㄺ’ and the stem is before an ending that has initial consonant ‘ㄱ’, the ‘ㄺ’ have to be pronounced ‘ㄹ’. Example: 맑다[막따] → 맑게[말께]. Example: 읽다[익따] → 읽고[일꼬]. 2. Usually ‘ㄼ’ is pronounced ‘ㄹ’. But it can be pronounced ‘ㅂ’ when it is in some words. Example: 밟다 is pronounced ‘밥따‘, 넓죽하다 is pronounced ‘넙쭈카다’, 넓둥글다 is pronounced ‘넙뚱글다’. However, some Koreans pronounce the ‘밟’ of ‘밟다’ as ‘ba**rp**’, even though it should be pronounced ‘ba**p**’. It's not good, but you may just replace them into Latin alphabets letter by letter! Nobody cares! I know the rule is too difficult.
+null name (K.) oh see? there is no "R" sound in hangul but, I'm just wondering why sometimes every time i watch korean drama i heard "r" sound? like; 사랑해 sound like; Saranghae not salanghae, Salanghae is correct.
Fghqrag bayl The pronunciation of ㄹ sound is usually known as a sound between R and L. For Koreans, R & L sounds are just allophones of ㄹ sound. Sometimes ㄹ becomes R, and sometimes becomes L. I don't know exactly how&when the pronunciation is changed even though I'm Korean. I've pronounced 사랑[sarang] dozens of times after I read your comment. I think the reason why the ㄹ of 사랑[sarang] is pronounced like R sound is because the 사[sa]. When I pronounce 사[sa], the tongue goes down. After that, when I pronounce 랑[rang], the tongue goes up. i.e. the tongue moved from the bottom to the top; so the tongue sticks to the palate very weakly than usual. I guess, that is the reason.
Kenji Harima No! Don't roll the R! If you roll the R, you can sound angry. Think if the "dd" sound in the English word "ladder." The tap sound your tongue makes is the sound you want to make in Korean. If you see ㄹ at the end of a word, it makes a closer sound to an L, but not a full-on English L. Listen to news reporters, Korean RUclipsrs, or even K-Pop idols pronouncing this sound, and try to copy it.
Iris- The *soft* R roll works for ㄹ. It basically just sounds like an English letter "d", as you said. (However, as for the hard R roll, you are 100% correct. Indeed, don't do the hard R roll in Korean. There is no Korean letter that sounds like a cat purring! Lol)

Well I learned it like this Every consonant have a name so I just learned the names. In batchim the words are pronounced like the last letter in their words. For example= ieung is pronounced as ng in batchim Another example= rieul is pronounced as l in batchim
Hi Acacia, Thank you for posting. The nasal consonants used in batchim are not pronounced as 't', the pronunciation changes depending on the word following the nasal batchim. We have lessons available on these batchim rules at our website, please come take a look, signing up is free: goo.gl/LpQIkb Cheers, Team KoreanClass101.com
Actually, there IS a similar sound in American English!!! If you pronounce "pretty" or "atta boy!" that "TT" is softened to something that is between a D, an L and a Spanish R. Same with the words Adam, atom, etc. That is roughly the Korean R/L. :-)
Hi there, Thanks for your comment. That might help native English or Spanish speakers to understand the sound. :) Regards, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
I wouldn't say it's like the "tt" sound. I think it's more of a combination of r and d. rd because you flick your tongue along the front roof of your mouth when pronouncing "ㄹ"
@@michelleahnlovely, the shifting consonants (k kk, t, tt, etc) are like the words hatter and water. If poorly enunciated and pronunciated, they sound like hadder and wawder but should be said as wawter and hat/ter. In some positions, the k, t, p, and ch sound like g, d, b, and j but 2/3 of the time, they take the first sound. kk, tt, pp, and jj sould like k, t, p, and ch but with almost no air and 100% unvoiced (if your voice box is vibrating, it is done wrong).
thank you so much for this Korean teaching and I know its been more than 4 years but I just wanted to thank you so much ! Now I've been better learning Korean ! Thank you so much ! Fighting !~
There are only 7 sounds when it comes to Batchim, ㄱ,ㄴ,ㄷ,ㄹ,ㅁ,ㅂ,ㅇ. Koreans habitually pronounce them without recognizing that we are using only 7 sounds. Words with 2 final consonants like '삯' and '닭', we pronounce only one of them. Words with a different final consonant rather than ㄱ,ㄴ,ㄹ,ㅁ,ㅂ,ㅇ, we pronounce all of them ㄷ.
Yaaaayy this is helpful thank you!! Oh and thanks for replying to my comment in the previous episode too :) I didn't even know about bachim so I'm REALLY glad you brought it up x) I guess the one thing that's the hardest for me to pronounce is the "ui" sound because ive heard in some kpop songs that its pronounced differently and I get confused! Anyways, looking forward to the next lesson!
My huge problem that stops me from learning Korean more, is that squiggly character (ㄹ). That R/L but not R or L character xd) Every place I search about, I see the same answer that doesnt really help. If theres no sound for it in English, can't you just make up the sound? I know that sound so stupid, but It's hard to understand or explain. I seen a comment below, though it doesn't help much anyway without an example. Maybe I should learn Japanese first, I find it easier some how.
Its like the Spanish R Don't confuse it with RR though For example "pero" you don't need to roll the r but for "perro" you need to I hope that helps a lil, I'm not good at explaining stuff heh
Make the "r" sound but do the thing your tongue does when you say letter "L". like make the r sound with your throat but you hit the tip of your tongue to the tip of your mouth like what your tongue does when you say English L It's a mix between L and r
With rules of pronunciation, the four alternating consonants of k, t, p, and ch are pronounced as such in the initial syllable position as those sounds (aka aspirated), NOT voiced as in the secondary sounds of g, d, b, and j). Batchim should be romanized as pronounced which is patchim (pawcheem).
Oh! I was wondering if you could make a video on when to use like the native Korean number system (il, im, sam) and the other one that's like "hana, dul, set"! Thank you :)
in my first language, Serbian, we also have words taken from English and the pronunciation is very similar but not the same, so the #2 rule is going very easy for me
Thank you for your comment, Jojo4400garfield! Yes, that sounds like patchim when reading Korean. You'll learn why in one of the upcoming lessons 감사합니다. / Jae, www.KoreanClass101.com
Which is the point of having so many batchin if almost all the pronunciation are the same one, what for the double batchin to use just one of the sounds????
Hello, Im upper intermediate but have an obsession with having to go through all the lessons anyway so I can tick it off as completed. I'm glad the English speak host has finally said not to stress any vowels. The irony of it is that she stresses the vowels in EVERY lesson. I don't see how her presence helps people with Korean pronoun citation if she is always pronouncing things incorrectly.
In 사랑 the ㄹ sounds more like R rather than L. Although usually it's something in between sometimes it's pronounced more as R than L in other words the other way around. Depends on it's placement in the word. Although I think usually it's not too difficult to get the hang of it after studying Korean for a while.
Hi DoctorMadeMe, thank you for the comment. That's right. When the character ㄹ is placed at the beginning, it sounds more like R. We're going to cover details in one of the upcoming lessons, so stay tuned. 감사합니다. / Jae, www.KoreanClass101.com
If you pay attention to idols when they speak, the g/k and d/t sounds are really similar. So similar that I disregard the difference altogether when I sing.
Hi Ao Katsu, Thanks for your positive feedback. It would be helpful and effective to expand your vocabulary and learn some basic grammar at the same time. :) Good luck with your learning! Regards, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
I was watching this video but i (luckily??) didnt learn anything, however i’m glad this video is made because i didnt know people made these mistakes but i’m glad they can stop making them
Ok this is probably a dumb question but I have just started learning Hangeul and I thought 아 was pronounced as "ah" but at 0:33 it sounds like there's a m sound in there???
From watching K-dramas and K-pop interviews, I may not get everything they are saying but I do understand that when they talk it is very different, its lower in general. In English, its the opposite almost. It would be like the equivalent of sounding like you are asking yourself a question (going up or staying the same) then answering it (lowering the pitch at the end). Mostly the latter (lowering the pitch at the end). They also want you to use a Korean accent when you use words very similar to English words. I would say the good thing about English is it is spoken different ways so even if you have an accent, you could still be understood for the most part. If someone said computer or orange in Korean, I would not be confused at all. I notice their B sound seems like a p sound in English.
Hi there, Thanks for your interesting comment! Yes, when people talk in real life, it may sound different and vary by individuals. Good observation! Regards, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
I understand why I have less difficulties in Korean pronunciation than English one. As in French, the lower tone is at the end of a sentence. English one is too complicated for me XD
loved the lesson, I have a hard time with the batchim though, like the H sounds becoming a T, but when I hear her pronounce it I can hardly hear the T. is it a mouth technique? if so is there a way to learn that?
Hi Benjamin Michaels, No worries. Even native speakers do not pronounce words exactly the same. :) You will be able to hear subtle sound differences shortly. Regards, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
Hi Breanna, You can guess which batchim to use based on the sounds represented by each consonant combined with the batchim rules which are taught after basic vowels and consonants. Please do not worry about the batchim too much. It is important to build a solid foundation first. Thanks, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
i started to learn korean a few weeks ago, now i can read 한골 but i don't understand it haha i know a few words and i think i can pronounce them correctly the only thing i find diffucult is constructing sentences haha
핳 doesn't exist in Korean(so I think 핳 is not a proper example), and we Koreans don't always pronounce ㅎbatchim as t sound for example 좋아요(joa-yo), but in most cases make t sound with adding some aspiration sound onto the following consonant 좋죠(jot-chio) 좋다(jot-ta)
Hi Sydney, Thanks for posting. The consonants which change to a ㄷ sound when in the batchim position are: ㄷ/ㄸ/ㅌ/ㅅ/ㅆ/ㅈ/ㅊ/ㅎ(although ㄸ is not usually used in the batchim position). Cheers, Team KoreanClass101.com
The r/l issue and the pronunciation of loanwords as in their native language will be the worst issues for me. I have been taught to pronounce English words in one way (European country where English is the primary foreign language taught), and it becomes a strong point of mine to have good English. Japanese and Korean require one to cast away the usual pronunciation.
+Muqaddas Rahmonova The ㅓhas a higher pitched "o" sound, it kind of sounds like uh with an o. ㅕis like the same thing but it's with a y sound so it sounds like yuh. ㅗ is a deeper "o" sound, like oh. ㅛ is also like the same thing as ㅗ but again. with a y sound in front of it like yoh. I hope I helped I would recommend hearing those vowels from a native speaker though to really get the sounds! :)
+Muqaddas Rahmonova Hi Muqaddas Rahmonova, Thanks for posting. 'ㅓ' 'ㅗ' 'ㅕ' 'ㅛ' are basic Korean vowels which you will need to remember when studying Korean. They do have a slight difference in pronunciation. 'ㅓ'is pronounced 'eo' (sounds similar to uh), 'ㅗ' is 'oh', 'ㅕ'is 'yeo', and 'ㅛ' (yo) sounds similar to the 'yo' in 'yoyo'. Best, Team KoreanClass101.com
Hi mournblank, Thank you for watching. When ㄹ is pin the batchim position, you can say it like you'd say 'L' in English. But make sure your tongue touches the roof of the mouth. When you say 'L' in English, your tongue touches your teeth. But in Korean, you should move your tongue to the roof of your mouth instead. This is a unique pronunciation to Korean, so keep practicing! Gamsahamnida, Claire Team KoreanClass101.com
Hi Claire, thank you for your response.. I really appreciate it. I just got one more question in my mind. How about ㅂ? When to use it as M and not B ? B example 김밥 . M example 죄송합니다. I often confused to pronounce ㅂcorrectly.
Hi!!! I love these videos, they're really helpful!! Thanks so much, but there's one problem i keep facing, which is pronouncing the ㄹ sound, do you have to like roll your R's to get that sound out? I don't know how to roll my R's and that might be why, can you please help! ^.^ Thank you!! ^.^

Lmao same
yes lol
yea,we got used to Korean pronunciation XDXD
i wish
**pronounces Sarang** it sounds closer to an L than an R

ooooohhhh now i get it that does work
이유빈 its kindof like ㄸ where it makes kindof a "dt" sound where the tip of your tongue is between your teeth, right?
Niiiceee now its much easier thank u 😆😆
이유빈 Brilliant! why has no one used this yet.
Batchim confuses me so much ;__;
samee omg..oh and nice profile pic ;)
Well I learned it like this
Every consonant have a name so I just learned the names. In batchim the words are pronounced like the last letter in their words.
For example= ieung is pronounced as ng in batchim
Another example= rieul is pronounced as l in batchim
For example= ieung sounds like ng in ng batchim
Another example= rieul is pronounced as l in batchim

so the batchim one means that the all the nasal vowels have to pronounced as a t?

good thing I'm Mandarin, so I can do the r/l sound very easily :) that sound is also prominent in japanese

basically foreign words are transliterated in favor of British accent more often in Korea
Actually, there IS a similar sound in American English!!! If you pronounce "pretty" or "atta boy!" that "TT" is softened to something that is between a D, an L and a Spanish R. Same with the words Adam, atom, etc. That is roughly the Korean R/L. :-)

Important to note this is in North American English, not British English. Since British people don't soften their t
The batchim one for the h letter is easy for me because in my accent, we tend to drop the t but make it still seem like it's still there.
Great series! so many things that I hadn't even thought about, looking forward for the rest of the episodes. Great job guys!

There actually IS an equivalent sound in English for ㄹ, it's pronounced like the [r] in "Eng[r]ish" or the [rl] in "Ea[rl] Gray"
Thta's true for the ending consonant, but for starting a syllable, there is no English equivalent.
There are only 7 sounds when it comes to Batchim, ㄱ,ㄴ,ㄷ,ㄹ,ㅁ,ㅂ,ㅇ. Koreans habitually pronounce them without recognizing that we are using only 7 sounds.
Words with 2 final consonants like '삯' and '닭', we pronounce only one of them. Words with a different final consonant rather than ㄱ,ㄴ,ㄹ,ㅁ,ㅂ,ㅇ, we pronounce all of them ㄷ.
this is the easiest explanation I found about the 7 consonants. thanks!
you're welcome! good luck with your study:)
batchim is kinda complicated!!
NICE!!! I learned a lot! Thank you!
Can you please make the next video??? I know now how to read and write in Korean, I just need to learn to speak more sentences. Thanks from Canada
Thank you! I have trouble with 으 pronunciation
The tone inflection at the end of a sentence was a very useful tip, thank you very much! I never picked up on that! ^^
Yaaaayy this is helpful thank you!! Oh and thanks for replying to my comment in the previous episode too :) I didn't even know about bachim so I'm REALLY glad you brought it up x) I guess the one thing that's the hardest for me to pronounce is the "ui" sound because ive heard in some kpop songs that its pronounced differently and I get confused! Anyways, looking forward to the next lesson!
great tutorial videos :) but where can i find the rest of them? i only got to watch 2. thanks a lot :)
thanks I was so confused about batchim
i defiantly stress my syllables im going to keep practicing from what is taught
My huge problem that stops me from learning Korean more, is that squiggly character (ㄹ). That R/L but not R or L character xd)
Every place I search about, I see the same answer that doesnt really help.
If theres no sound for it in English, can't you just make up the sound?
I know that sound so stupid, but It's hard to understand or explain.
I seen a comment below, though it doesn't help much anyway without an example.
Maybe I should learn Japanese first, I find it easier some how.
Its like the Spanish R
Don't confuse it with RR though
For example "pero" you don't need to roll the r but for "perro" you need to
I hope that helps a lil, I'm not good at explaining stuff heh
Flying Tacoz Thank you!!!! Helped me so much!
This was a while back I basically have it down ;)
Make the "r" sound but do the thing your tongue does when you say letter "L". like make the r sound with your throat but you hit the tip of your tongue to the tip of your mouth like what your tongue does when you say English L
It's a mix between L and r
I know. I guess I have to delete my post, I keep getting replies on it.

ㄹ sounds like "r" in Italian or Spanish when followed by vowels and sounds like (weak) "l" when followed by consonants.
So much similar pronunciations... But I'll be master one day because try try again till you succeed.
i'm having trouble with pronouncing ㅗ and ㅓvowel. i hope i can learn it at the next lesson :D
Its Shinta ㅗ is more like an “oh” sound and ㅓ is more like “uh”
ㅓis romanized as “eo” but don’t pronounce it that way. it’s more of an “o” sound.
ㅓmakes an “o” sound
Learning how to speak korean when you’re a native spanish speaker it’s so easy bc the sounds are really similar
We indians have that sound R-----L
Called (र )
So it's easy to pronounce as an indian 😄
But isn't that just R sound
@@nawa2396 nope it's not
R has a quite different sound it's not totally R sound and neither L it's something in between them
#1 is the most difficult because it's a subtle difference. To me, things like 최 and 희 are difficult.
Also theㅅ at the bottom of 옛 in the word 옛이야기 is pronounced as N (Yeniyagi). So it´s not only pronounced as a T or an S at the buttom of a syllable.
in my first language, Serbian, we also have words taken from English and the pronunciation is very similar but not the same,
so the #2 rule is going very easy for me
great video, very helpful!!
but since this is about pronunciation, you should know how to pronounce "batchim". you sounded more like 빧츰 than 받침 ...

i really need to learn the batchim.
But also depends where is the ㄹ Right?? For example 사랑해요

장래 Pronunce as 장내
I do have a question though, how come ㅅ sounds is "s" according to the hana hana hangul series but here its not?
army!
Jimin's Jams Are Best With Suga Kookies and Tae Wait what. I’m confused on what you’re saying.
I have a question:
I already learned the korean alphabet. (hangul)
What should I study now: grammar or vocabulary?
Anyway, great lesson!
Both. Slowly learn both at the same time, because you will need the grammar for the voc. and the voc. for the grammar :)
***** Oh, I see...
Thanks a lot, friend. :)
Hi Ao Katsu,
Thanks for your positive feedback.
It would be helpful and effective to expand your vocabulary and learn some basic grammar at the same time. :)
Good luck with your learning!

I get confused sometimes with batchim
Y do I even watch this.. I'm Korean.

I was watching this video but i (luckily??) didnt learn anything, however i’m glad this video is made because i didnt know people made these mistakes but i’m glad they can stop making them

Ok this is probably a dumb question but I have just started learning Hangeul and I thought 아 was pronounced as "ah" but at 0:33 it sounds like there's a m sound in there???
I think you got 마 and 아 confused
아 is pronounced as 'ah' and 마 is pronounced as 'mah'
Hi Bitter Sweet Jasper,
Thank you for posting. 워 is pronounced as 'wo', there is no 'm' sound there. (고마워=gomawo)

Brielle Hong Alright thank you!

Knowing how to pronounce different batchim is hard for me! What about when "ㅆ" is the batchim?
my hardest is pronouncing words in an American accents
Good luck i've grown a malaysian and russian acent
From watching K-dramas and K-pop interviews, I may not get everything they are saying but I do understand that when they talk it is very different, its lower in general. In English, its the opposite almost. It would be like the equivalent of sounding like you are asking yourself a question (going up or staying the same) then answering it (lowering the pitch at the end). Mostly the latter (lowering the pitch at the end).
They also want you to use a Korean accent when you use words very similar to English words. I would say the good thing about English is it is spoken different ways so even if you have an accent, you could still be understood for the most part. If someone said computer or orange in Korean, I would not be confused at all. I notice their B sound seems like a p sound in English.
Hi there,
Thanks for your interesting comment!
Yes, when people talk in real life, it may sound different and vary by individuals. Good observation!

I understand why I have less difficulties in Korean pronunciation than English one. As in French, the lower tone is at the end of a sentence. English one is too complicated for me XD
loved the lesson, I have a hard time with the batchim though, like the H sounds becoming a T, but when I hear her pronounce it I can hardly hear the T. is it a mouth technique? if so is there a way to learn that?
Hi Benjamin Michaels,
No worries.
Even native speakers do not pronounce words exactly the same. :)
You will be able to hear subtle sound differences shortly.

Hi mrs.kaneki,
Thank you for commenting. The consonant "ㅌ" sounds similar to the alphabet 'T' sound.
Cheers,

Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com thanks, btw this video is very helpful
hello army im here to be able yo understand BTS
The difficult one is that batchim how do u know what the letter the batchim will be all the time.
Hi Breanna,
You can guess which batchim to use based on the sounds represented by each consonant combined with the batchim rules which are taught after basic vowels and consonants.
Please do not worry about the batchim too much. It is important to build a solid foundation first.
Thanks,

i started to learn korean a few weeks ago, now i can read 한골 but i don't understand it haha i know a few words and i think i can pronounce them correctly the only thing i find diffucult is constructing sentences haha
핳 doesn't exist in Korean(so I think 핳 is not a proper example), and we Koreans don't always pronounce ㅎbatchim as t sound for example 좋아요(joa-yo), but in most cases make t sound with adding some aspiration sound onto the following consonant 좋죠(jot-chio) 좋다(jot-ta)
Sorry my question isn't related to the topic, but could you tell me what typeface is it under the numbers on blue slides?
The Korean accent 컴퓨터(compuTer), 파티(parTy) are same British accent. They both pronunciation alphabet T. But American T -> R.
i am actually having a hard time pronouncing the ts, ch, j, and double consonants
I somehow dont trust people who dont look like the person whos suppose to be teaching you the language
I'm having trouble with the R/ L letter sound. What should I do? I just can't get it right.
Wow..
i am becoming a master in speaking korean
"It sounds more like a L than and R"
Me: "SALLANG"
Why is this so complicated for me 😭😖😖💔💔
I have confusion the reading between "어" and "오", "애" and "에".
being able to speak Spanish has helped my pronunciation, especially with 'ㄹ'
or maybe it's just me ^^;;
So how is pronuncied the ㅁ in batchim position?
ㅁ
please tell me if i'm right, so any letter in the batchim position in a block changes to a t sound except for the nasal letters?
Hi Sydney,
Thanks for posting. The consonants which change to a ㄷ sound when in the batchim position are: ㄷ/ㄸ/ㅌ/ㅅ/ㅆ/ㅈ/ㅊ/ㅎ(although ㄸ is not usually used in the batchim position).

I pronounce the "r/l" character like how we do in Japanese or Vietnamese. It really is hard to explain lol
It's like a soft "d"..
The r/l issue and the pronunciation of loanwords as in their native language will be the worst issues for me. I have been taught to pronounce English words in one way (European country where English is the primary foreign language taught), and it becomes a strong point of mine to have good English. Japanese and Korean require one to cast away the usual pronunciation.
So r in korean is like r in japanese pronounce as r + l
I can't seem to remember how to pronounce ㅓ, ㅕ
I try to match it with something in English to remember how to pronounce it correctly but I can't.
ㅓ sounds like the o in song. *Hope that helps*
Thank youu ~
고마워
Hi.Ive got some problems with ㅓ ㅗ ; ㅕ ㅛ; they all sound same to me : O and Yo.What is the difference?
+Muqaddas Rahmonova The ㅓhas a higher pitched "o" sound, it kind of sounds like uh with an o. ㅕis like the same thing but it's with a y sound so it sounds like yuh. ㅗ is a deeper "o" sound, like oh. ㅛ is also like the same thing as ㅗ but again. with a y sound in front of it like yoh. I hope I helped I would recommend hearing those vowels from a native speaker though to really get the sounds! :)
+Blah Blah thank you very much.
+Muqaddas Rahmonova Hi Muqaddas Rahmonova,
Thanks for posting. 'ㅓ' 'ㅗ' 'ㅕ' 'ㅛ' are basic Korean vowels which you will need to remember when studying Korean. They do have a slight difference in pronunciation.
'ㅓ'is pronounced 'eo' (sounds similar to uh), 'ㅗ' is 'oh', 'ㅕ'is 'yeo', and 'ㅛ' (yo) sounds similar to the 'yo' in 'yoyo'.
Best,

+Learn Korean with KoreanClass101.com Thank you.
+Muqaddas Rahmonova Same problem here, haha
I feel as if you explained the Batchim Position poorly, but other than that I think it was good.
I think R is L when using as batchim.. is that correct ?
Hi mournblank,
Thank you for watching.
When ㄹ is pin the batchim position, you can say it like you'd say 'L' in English. But make sure your tongue touches the roof of the mouth. When you say 'L' in English, your tongue touches your teeth. But in Korean, you should move your tongue to the roof of your mouth instead.
This is a unique pronunciation to Korean, so keep practicing!

Hi Claire, thank you for your response.. I really appreciate it. I just got one more question in my mind.
How about ㅂ?
When to use it as M and not B ?
B example 김밥 . M example 죄송합니다.
I often confused to pronounce ㅂcorrectly.
mournblank If b is beside n then it is read as m. :) (This is what I know tho.)
mournblank Since ㄴ is a nasal(비음, 鼻音) and ㅂ is a plosive(파열음, 破裂音),
the ㅂ before ㄴ becomes the [ㅁ] sound.
And it's called the nasalization(비음화, 鼻音化).
That's very clear.. thankyou :)
I cant properly pronounce ㄹ much like in Japanese...😩
Hi!!! I love these videos, they're really helpful!! Thanks so much, but there's one problem i keep facing, which is pronouncing the ㄹ sound, do you have to like roll your R's to get that sound out? I don't know how to roll my R's and that might be why, can you please help! ^.^ Thank you!! ^.^
Veronica Sargent sorry this is lat, but if you still need it, just flick your tongue across the roof of your mouth as you say it, no need to roll it
