Lesson 1: ㄱ (Giyeok) (Part 2/2)
Hey Hey Hey~😃
Welcome back !
Let's finish off our lesson 1 ㄱ.
When a word with ㄱ is romanticized, it is often written with G or K.
(Now if you know BTS, JungKook is written with K even though it should be pronounced with the G).
Listen to the clip below...did you hear G or K?
You are not wrong to hear K sound as it does have that "K sounding" before you voice it.
Using JungKook as an example, we have yet to learn this advanced consonant but with K sound, it should be written with 정쿡 not 정국.
Please note, you can always write with K or G. However, for the sake of speaking like a native, try to always have G in mind.
So how do you practice? Try to pronounce "great". that G sound before reat, is what you are aiming for. You will still hear that bit of K sound but that's normal ! Just keep in mind that G should be more pronounced than the K.
Let's try with the activity !
ㄱ(k) or ㄱ(g) (New page will open)
Great work today :) We are one step closer to become a Korean Master 😎
Next lesson, we will go through our second consonant ㄴ (니은/ Nieun).
See you later ~!
