  • The word 끝말잇기 is pronounced “끈말릳끼” due to what’s known as “ㄴ 첨가” or “ㄴ Addition.” This is a sound change rule that affects the sound 이 and can change it to 니. This happens whenever two words are put together into one (such as compound nouns).

    I recently noticed this in the word 잡일, I was actually wondering why it is pronounced as 잠닐, I thought it might just be an exeption😅

      I mean, it's fine if you think of those as exceptions. But after you start to notice dozens and dozens of similar exceptions, then this rule can come in handy :)

    Just a note - I’m pretty sure that the 일 in 앞일 is not the Korean native word for “thing” but rather the Chinese reading of 日 (일) which means day.

    • @GoBillyKorean
      @GoBillyKorean  2 года назад +2

      Naver Dictionary has it defined as 1. 앞으로 닥쳐올 일. or 2. 자기 앞에 주어져 있는 일.

    Why? I mean the assimilation part is obvious but the additional n seems more likely to have specific grammatical properties to distinguish lexical morphemes than to just simply nasalize everything (although Korean phonology does tend to nasalize everything)

  • @KirkKiyosadaTome
    @KirkKiyosadaTome 2 года назад +2

    Great lesson, Billy! One question: Why is "옷 입다" not pronounced "오 십따", like when "맛 있다" becomes "마 싰따"?

    • @GoBillyKorean
      @GoBillyKorean  2 года назад +2

      That's because those are separate words, not part of the same word. 맛있다 can also be pronounced 마딛따 (but this much less common).

    • @KirkKiyosadaTome
      @KirkKiyosadaTome 2 года назад +1

      @@GoBillyKorean Super interesting! Is there a way to know when this is the case, as I don't know what makes the former case a compound word and the latter a not so. Also, I've heard 맛있어 said a lot as 마있어, completely eliminating the initial ㅅ. Maybe it's just pronounced with an extremely quiet ㄷ, used as an unvocalized tip of tongue to front teeth position? Strangely, this actually occurs in Japanese, too, where おいしそう "oishisou, look good" gets pronounced as おいっそう "oissou" all the time.

    Hi Billi ..Whenever I get chance I go through your posts on youtube. Now I suddenly realise that "감사합니다" is actually pronounced as "감삼니다" ..Now is it the same rule that explains this change ?
    Waiting for your reply...

      No, that's unrelated to this sound change rule. You can learn about that here: ruclips.net/video/huUxUQP_O0Q/видео.html

      Yes, this applies to 색연필 as well as the nasalization rule, which changes the ㄱ sound to ㅇ.

    A bit of topic, but since you mentioned looking it up on Naver. Sometimes when I look up a word there are two audio files and one will say it the way I would have guessed it acording to all the rules and the other one will be one that sounds more like something I have heard a native speaker say. Like 낡다 has one that sounds like 낙따 and one that sounds like 날다. In those cases are just both correct and you can say it either way?

    • @GoBillyKorean
      @GoBillyKorean  2 года назад +2

      낡다 is simply "낙따." But if you see an entry on Naver that has multiple ways to pronounce it - it will be in brackets [ ] - then you can use either.
