==Did you jump to step 2?==
 +
Did you skip [[Hangeul step 1|step 1]] because you were eager to just start learning the alphabet? Don't do it! We recommend you you go back to [[Hangeul step 1|step 1]] and read the general information on Hangeul, there are some important details that will help you from being confused later.
 +
 
 +
==Introduction==
 +
[[File:Syllable blocks1.png|right|thumb|250px|A consonant paired with a horizontal vowel and a consonant paired with a vertical vowel]]
 +
We will introduce a consonant and vowel in pairs since consonants cannot be pronounced without the help of a vowel. Steps 2 through 4 are all either a consonant paired with a horizontal vowel or a consonant paired with a vertical vowel.
 +
 
 +
In this lesson, you will learn:
 +
*Consonants: [[ㄱ]], [[ㄴ]], [[ㅁ]], [[ㄷ]], [[ㅇ]]
 +
*Vowels: [[ㅏ]], [[ㅜ]], [[ㅗ]], [[ㅣ]]
 +
 
 +
Also note that some of these files are set to loop, so you must manually stop the files yourself.

|Cons image = ㄱ.jpg

|Cons text = This is pronounced like a mix between a G and a K at the beginning of a word. However, when found between vowels, the sound is voiced and makes a /g/ sound. For full information about this letter, see [[ㄱ]].

However, if ㅇ is in the final (bottom) position, it makes an "ng" sound, i.e. 'si'''ng'''' or 'wro'''ng'''' ([[IPA]]: ŋ ), but these final position sounds will not be discussed until [[Hangeul_step_5|step 5]] of this lesson. For now, think of it as a placeholder for a consonant when only a vowel sound must be written. For full information about this letter, see [[ㅇ]]. <!--Insert picture-->

Did you jump to step 2?

Did you skip step 1 because you were eager to just start learning the alphabet? Don't do it! We recommend you you go back to step 1 and read the general information on Hangeul, there are some important details that will help you from being confused later.

Introduction

A consonant paired with a horizontal vowel and a consonant paired with a vertical vowel

We will introduce a consonant and vowel in pairs since consonants cannot be pronounced without the help of a vowel. Steps 2 through 4 are all either a consonant paired with a horizontal vowel or a consonant paired with a vertical vowel.

In this lesson, you will learn:

Also note that some of these files are set to loop, so you must manually stop the files yourself.

Step 2

ㅏ (patinig)

ㄱ (katinig)

ㅏ.jpg

This is a horizontal vowel and written to the right of the consonant. For full information about this letter, see ㅏ.

Male
Female
link=ㄱ}

This is pronounced like a mix between a G and a K at the beginning of a word. However, when found between vowels, the sound is voiced and makes a /g/ sound. For full information about this letter, see ㄱ.



Practice
가


ㅜ (patinig)

ㄴ (katinig)

ㅜ.jpg

This sound makes an "ooh" sound, similar to 'moon' or 'blue' or the U sound in Spanish (i.e. usted in "usted"). This is a vertical vowel and written below the consonant. For full information about this letter, see ㅜ.

Male
Female
link=ㄴ}

This sound is the same as the N sound in English. For full information about this letter, see ㄴ.



Practice
누
나
구


ㅗ (patinig)

ㅁ (katinig)

ㅗ.jpg

This is a vertical vowel and written below the consonant. For full information about this letter, see ㅗ.

Male

마
무
고
노


ㅣ (patinig)

ㄷ (katinig)

ㅣ.jpg

This sound is similar to the 'ee' sound in 'see' or 'free.' This is a horizontal vowel and written to the right of the consonant. For full information about this letter, see ㅣ.

Male
Female
link=ㄷ}

This is pronounced like a mix between the sounds of a T and a D at the beginning of a word. However, when found between vowels, the sound is voiced and makes a /d/ sound. For full information about this letter, see ㄷ.

ㅇ (katinig)

link={{{link}}}

ㅇ represents no sound when found in the initial position of a syllable. Instead, it simply acts as a placeholder since vowels cannot be written by themselves. However, if ㅇ is in the final (bottom) position, it makes an "ng" sound, i.e. 'sing' or 'wrong' (IPA: ŋ ), but these final position sounds will not be discussed until step 5 of this lesson. For now, think of it as a placeholder for a consonant when only a vowel sound must be written. For full information about this letter, see ㅇ.
