ㅇ (consonant)

ㅇ gives off no sound in the initial position, instead it just simply acts as a placeholder since vowels can't 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 final position sounds won't be discussed until step 5 of this lesson. For now, just 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.
