ALPHABET
What is HANGEUL (한글)?
There has no other way to learn this. You need to memorize it.
Before i start, lets us know the name of the Consonants alphabet first.
ㄱ (g/k)= 기역 (giyok)
ㄲ (kk) = 쌍기역 (ssang giyok)
ㄴ (n) = 니은 (nieun)
ㄷ (d) = 디귿 (digeut)
ㄸ (dd) = 쌍디귿 (ssang digeut)
ㄹ (r/l) = 리을 (rieul)
ㅁ (m) = 미음 (mieum)
ㅂ (b) = 비읍 (bieup)
ㅃ (bb) = 쌍비읍 (ssang bieup)
ㅅ (s) = 시옷 (siot)
ㅆ (ss) = 쌍시옷 (ssang siot)
ㅇ (ng/silent) = 이응 (ieung)
ㅈ (j) = 지읒 (jieut)
ㅉ (jj) = 쌍지읒 (ssang jieut)
ㅊ (ch) = 치읓 (chieut)
ㅋ (kk) = 키읔 (kieuk)
ㅌ (t) = 티읕 (tieut)
ㅍ (p) = 피읖 (pieup)
ㅎ (h) = 히읕 (hieut)
How to easy memorize it? let's break it down below:
📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝📝
Please more focus here and get the details how to memorize it fast.
First you need to divide it to 5 basic consonants.
5 BASIC CONSONANTS is,
1) ㄱ = g (english romanization)
2) ㄴ = n (english romanization)
3) ㅁ = m (english romanization)
4) ㅅ = s (english romanization)
5) ㅇ = ng / silent (english romanization)
So, from the '5 Basic Consonants' of hangeul, there is more another consonants that derived from the 5 Basic Consonants stated.
1) ㄱ (followed by) ㅋ = kk (english romanization)
2) ㄴ (followed by) ㄷ = d (english romanization) (followed by) ㅌ = t (english romanization) (followed by) ㄹ = r/l (half between R and L -english romanization)
3) ㅁ (followed by) ㅂ = b (english romanization) (followed by) ㅍ = p (english romanization)
4) ㅅ (followed by) ㅈ = j (english romanization) (followed by) ㅊ = ch (english romanization)
5) ㅇ (followed by) ㅎ = h (english romanization)
summary it
ㄱ -------->> ㅋ
ㄴ -------->> ㄷ ------>> ㅌ ------>> ㄹ
ㅁ -------->> ㅂ ------>> ㅍ
ㅅ ------->> ㅈ ------ >> ㅊ
ㅇ -------->> ㅎ
To make you clear and easy, there is 14 hangeul consonants consists of :-
ㄱ (g)
ㄴ ( n )
ㅁ (m)
ㅅ (s)
ㅇ (ng)
ㅋ (kk)
ㄷ (d)
ㅌ (t)
ㄹ (r/l)
ㅂ (b)
ㅍ (p)
ㅈ (j)
ㅊ (ch)
ㅎ (h)
TIPS:
ㄱ can be pronounced like a G or a K. Typically at the beginning of a sentence or word you
will hear ㄱ like a K, and if it is in the middle of a word it’s closer to a G.
Example : 고구마 (koguma) = sweet potatoes
ㄹ can be pronounced like an R or an L. Typically at the beginning of a sentence you will
hear ㄹ like a R and in the middle more like L.
Example: 레벨 (rebel) = level
Do you understand me, so far?
5 DOUBLE CONSONANTS
1) ㅃ (bb/pp)
2) ㅉ (tch)
3) ㄸ (dd/tt)
4) ㄲ (kk)
5) ㅆ (ss)
end of the consonants

How about the Vowels?
Here is 10 BASIC VOWELS,
VERTICAL VOWELS
1) ㅏ (a)
2) ㅓ (eo)
3) ㅑ (ya)
4) ㅕ (yeo)
5) ㅣ (i)
HORIZONTAL VOWELS
6) ㅗ (o)
7) ㅜ (u)
8) ㅡ (eu)
9) ㅛ (yo)
10) ㅠ (yu)
TIPS:
(a) Sound different between ㅓ and ㅗ
The sound for ㅓ doesn’t really exist in English so it might be hard to master. It is certainly
one of the sounds that Korean people will ALWAYS correct you on. One technique to
getting closer to the right sound is this trick:
1. Shape your mouth as if you are going to say “AH”
2. Now say the sound “OH”. It should feel as if the sound is coming from the back of your
throat.
(b) Different between ㅜ and ㅡ
To the untrained ear these will both sound the same. But the mouth makes a different
shape for ㅜ and ㅡ.
ㅜ is said with the lips pushed out like you’re trying to kiss someone and saying “oo” as in
“moon”.
ㅡ is said by pulling the lips back almost as far as you can and saying the same “oo” sound.
(c) Hard and soft sound in hangeul
How ㅂ, ㄷ, ㅈ, and ㄱ seem to shift
sounds in Korean. Koreans also have a hard time explaining the exact timing of the shift of
these sounds. ㅂ is a “B” sound, but there are cases where it also sounds like a “P”. ㄷ is
“D”, but in some cases it will be “T”. ㅈ is “J” but sometimes it’s “CH”. And finally, ㄱ is “G”,
but in some cases it will sound like “K”.
You will find that in the beginning of a word ㅂ, ㄷ, ㅈ, and ㄱ will tend to be the “stronger”
sounds like P, T, CH, and K. But they will be softer in the middle and end of words.
ㅍ (P), ㅌ (T),ㅊ (CH),ㅋ (K) on the other hand are ALWAYS the hard soun

(d) Double consonants versus other sounds
ㅂ (b / p), ㅈ (j / ch), ㄷ (d / t), ㄱ (g / k) have a “hard” and “soft” sound. The double
consonants ㅃ,ㅉ,ㄸ,ㄲ, and ㅆ are sounded out with more energy than single consonants.
You push air into your mouth that is held back, you PAUSE slightly to let the pressure build.
Then you release to make the sound. Try not to spit on anyone.
FROM 10 BASIC VOWELS, following is COMPOUND VOWELS that divided by two (Vertical + Vertical) and (Horizontal + Vertical).
---> VERTICAL + VERTICAL
1. ㅐ (ae)
2. ㅔ (e)
3. ㅒ (yae)
4. ㅖ (ye)
---> HORIZONTAL + VERTICAL
1. ㅘ (wa)
2. ㅙ (wae)
3. ㅚ (oe)
4. ㅝ (wo)
5. ㅞ (we)
6. ㅟ (wi)
7. ㅢ (ui)
TIPS:
(a) Different between ㅐ and ㅔ
In modern Korea, there is no sound difference between ㅐ and ㅔ. Some words will use
one or the other based on the roots of the word. You simply just need to learn how to “spell”
some words in Korean, just like in English.
(b) Different between ㅒ and ㅖ
ㅒ and ㅖ are both pronounced like the “ye” in “yen”. In modern Korean there is no change
in sound. You will see both symbols used in Korean words. Consider them just different
ways of spelling. Just like in English you will have to learn the correct spelling.
(c) Different between ㅚ and ㅟ
These two double vowel types are commonly used in Korean. Despite looking similar in
style, ㅚ is pronounced like the English word “WAY” and ㅟ is pronounced like the English
word “WE”.
(d) ㅙ, ㅚ, and ㅞ
ㅙ ,ㅚ, and ㅞ, despite having different parts, all sound like the “WE” in “wet”. When said
slowly by your Korean friends they might sound out the first part of the double vowel, but in
spoken Korean you might not hear the sound difference.
(e) Different between ㅟ and ㅢ
ㅟ and ㅢ might be tricky to pronounce since they are so close in sound. The sound
change of these characters is similar to the sound change for ㅜ and ㅡ. For each sound,
start with the “oo” part of “moon”, then transition into the “ee” (like clean). The only
difference is the shape of your mouth when you say the “oo” part.
end of the vowels
So with this you already know all 40 alphabets (한글). Woaahhh this kind of really long explaination i guess. Hope you guys understand it.
as for bonus, here is an extra notes.
SOUND CHANGE RULES
(1) T - Stop
When certain characters are used as a 받침 (final consonant) they are converted to “T” sound. The “T Stop”
characters are ㅅ,ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅎ. ㄷ and ㅌ are also T sounds but since they are normally T
sounding they are left out of the examples.
이것 = igeot
좋 = jot
좋다 = jotda
When any T stop consonant is followed by ㅇ(이응) then the T stop is cancelled.
것이 = geoshi
받아 = bada
늦어 = neujeo
(2) ㅅ followed by ㅎ
When ㅅ is followed by a ㅎ in the next hangul character the sound moves into the ㅎ
position and is pronounced as ㅌ.
못하다 = mothada
못해요 = mothaeyo
(3) S to SH sound
When ㅅ is combined with ㅣ, ㅕ,ㅑ, ㅛ, ㅠ the “S” changes to an “SH” sound.
The sound REMAINS as “S” when combined with ㅏ,ㅓ,ㅜ, ㅗ, ㅡ, ㅐ, ㅔ.
example:
sh:
시 = shi
쇼 = sho
셔 = sheo
샤 = sha
슈 = shu
s:
사 = sa
소 = su
서 = seo
스 = seu
수 = su
(4) “L” and “R” sound for ㄹ (리을)
When there are two ㄹ back to back the sound is always “L”. When ㄹ is at the end of a
word it’s always an “L” sound. When ㄹ is at the beginning of a word it’s an “R” sound. i explained it on the top but here i give more details about it.
example:
멜론 = mellon
몰라 = molla
한글 = hangeul
과일 = gwail
(5) ㄹ(리을) and ㄴ (니은) combinations
When a ㄹ is followed by a ㄴ OR the ㄴ is followed by ㄹ the combined sound changes to
a double “L” sound.
example:
설날 = seollal
신라 = Shilla
관리 = gwalli
(6) Silent 겹받침 (double consonant)
The double consonants you might see are ㄺ, ㄻ, ㄿ, ㅀ, and ㅄ.
example:
삶 = sam (삼)
싫어 = sireo (시러)
(7) Random CH sound when not expected
When ㄷ is followed by ㅎ the resulting sound is “CH”. Similarly when ㅌ is followed by 이 the ㅌ changes to a “CH” sound.
example:
끝이 = kkeuchi (끄치)
같이 = kachi (가치)
(8) Shift to hard sound after and before ㅎ
When ㄱ,ㄷ,ㅂ, or ㅈ are before or after ㅎ their sound shifts to their harder soun
(d) Double consonants versus other sounds
ㅂ (b / p), ㅈ (j / ch), ㄷ (d / t), ㄱ (g / k) have a “hard” and “soft” sound. The double
consonants ㅃ,ㅉ,ㄸ,ㄲ, and ㅆ are sounded out with more energy than single consonants.

ㅂ (b / p), ㅈ (j / ch), ㄷ (d / t), ㄱ (g / k) have a “hard” and “soft” sound. The double
consonants ㅃ,ㅉ,ㄸ,ㄲ, and ㅆ are sounded out with more energy than single consonants.
You push air into your mouth that is held back, you PAUSE slightly to let the pressure build.
Then you release to make the sound. Try not to spit on anyone.
FROM 10 BASIC VOWELS, following is COMPOUND VOWELS that divided by two (Vertical + Vertical) and (Horizontal + Vertical).
---> VERTICAL + VERTICAL
1. ㅐ (ae)
2. ㅔ (e)
3. ㅒ (yae)
4. ㅖ (ye)
---> HORIZONTAL + VERTICAL
1. ㅘ (wa)
2. ㅙ (wae)
3. ㅚ (oe)
4. ㅝ (wo)
5. ㅞ (we)
6. ㅟ (wi)
7. ㅢ (ui)
TIPS:
(a) Different between ㅐ and ㅔ
In modern Korea, there is no sound difference between ㅐ and ㅔ. Some words will use
one or the other based on the roots of the word. You simply just need to learn how to “spell”
some words in Korean, just like in English.
(b) Different between ㅒ and ㅖ
ㅒ and ㅖ are both pronounced like the “ye” in “yen”. In modern Korean there is no change
in sound. You will see both symbols used in Korean words. Consider them just different
ways of spelling. Just like in English you will have to learn the correct spelling.
(c) Different between ㅚ and ㅟ
These two double vowel types are commonly used in Korean. Despite looking similar in
style, ㅚ is pronounced like the English word “WAY” and ㅟ is pronounced like the English
word “WE”.
(d) ㅙ, ㅚ, and ㅞ
ㅙ ,ㅚ, and ㅞ, despite having different parts, all sound like the “WE” in “wet”. When said
slowly by your Korean friends they might sound out the first part of the double vowel, but in
spoken Korean you might not hear the sound difference.
(e) Different between ㅟ and ㅢ
ㅟ and ㅢ might be tricky to pronounce since they are so close in sound. The sound
change of these characters is similar to the sound change for ㅜ and ㅡ. For each sound,
start with the “oo” part of “moon”, then transition into the “ee” (like clean). The only
difference is the shape of your mouth when you say the “oo” part.
end of the vowels
So with this you already know all 40 alphabets (한글). Woaahhh this kind of really long explaination i guess. Hope you guys understand it.
as for bonus, here is an extra notes.
SOUND CHANGE RULES
(1) T - Stop
When certain characters are used as a 받침 (final consonant) they are converted to “T” sound. The “T Stop”
characters are ㅅ,ㅈ, ㅊ, ㅎ. ㄷ and ㅌ are also T sounds but since they are normally T
sounding they are left out of the examples.
이것 = igeot
좋 = jot
좋다 = jotda
When any T stop consonant is followed by ㅇ(이응) then the T stop is cancelled.
것이 = geoshi
받아 = bada
늦어 = neujeo
(2) ㅅ followed by ㅎ
When ㅅ is followed by a ㅎ in the next hangul character the sound moves into the ㅎ
position and is pronounced as ㅌ.
못하다 = mothada
못해요 = mothaeyo
(3) S to SH sound
When ㅅ is combined with ㅣ, ㅕ,ㅑ, ㅛ, ㅠ the “S” changes to an “SH” sound.
The sound REMAINS as “S” when combined with ㅏ,ㅓ,ㅜ, ㅗ, ㅡ, ㅐ, ㅔ.
example:
sh:
시 = shi
쇼 = sho
셔 = sheo
샤 = sha
슈 = shu
s:
사 = sa
소 = su
서 = seo
스 = seu
수 = su
(4) “L” and “R” sound for ㄹ (리을)
When there are two ㄹ back to back the sound is always “L”. When ㄹ is at the end of a
word it’s always an “L” sound. When ㄹ is at the beginning of a word it’s an “R” sound. i explained it on the top but here i give more details about it.
example:
멜론 = mellon
몰라 = molla
한글 = hangeul
과일 = gwail
(5) ㄹ(리을) and ㄴ (니은) combinations
When a ㄹ is followed by a ㄴ OR the ㄴ is followed by ㄹ the combined sound changes to
a double “L” sound.
example:
설날 = seollal
신라 = Shilla
관리 = gwalli
(6) Silent 겹받침 (double consonant)
The double consonants you might see are ㄺ, ㄻ, ㄿ, ㅀ, and ㅄ.
example:
삶 = sam (삼)
싫어 = sireo (시러)
(7) Random CH sound when not expected
When ㄷ is followed by ㅎ the resulting sound is “CH”. Similarly when ㅌ is followed by 이 the ㅌ changes to a “CH” sound.
example:
끝이 = kkeuchi (끄치)
같이 = kachi (가치)
(8) Shift to hard sound after and before ㅎ
When ㄱ,ㄷ,ㅂ, or ㅈ are before or after ㅎ their sound shifts to their harder soun
