Let's start with the basics !

To learn Korean, we need to know what the Korean "Alphabets" are, right? πŸ‘Œ

We can learn more about Korean history soon. The Korean "alphabet" (aka Hangul/ν•œκΈ€) was created by King Sejong. (μ„Έμ’…λŒ€μ™•)

The "alphabet" used to contain 28 characters but during the early 20th century, 4 of them were removed mainly due to people "not commonly" using them.

So now, we use 24 characters.

 γ„± γ„΄ γ„· γ„Ή ㅁ γ…‚ γ…… γ…‡ γ…ˆ γ…Š γ…‹ γ…Œ ㅍ γ…Ž <- 14 consonants

ㅏ γ…‘ γ…“ γ…• γ…— γ…› γ…œ γ…  γ…‘ γ…£<- 10 vowels


This is Korean 101 post but let me overwhelm you by saying that even before we mix consonants and vowels to make words, we can also mix vowels or consonants themselves !! 

γ„± γ„² γ„΄ γ„· γ„Έ γ„Ή ㅁ γ…‚ γ…ƒ γ…… γ…† γ…‡ γ…ˆ γ…‰ γ…Š γ…‹ γ…Œ ㅍ γ…Ž
ㅏ ㅐ γ…‘ γ…’ γ…“ γ…” γ…• γ…– γ…— γ…˜ γ…™ γ…š γ…› γ…œ ㅝ γ…ž γ…Ÿ γ…  γ…‘ γ…’ γ…£


Oh my.....are you already losing interest?? πŸ™ˆ

BUT DO NOT WORRY !! WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER πŸ‘«πŸ‘¬πŸ‘­

We will go through each individual vowels and consonants nice and easy with details in the future posts !
