Aspirated Consonants

Similar letters consonants.png

In this section, we are going to learn the aspirated consonants ㅋ, ㅌ, ㅊ, and ㅍ (as well as another consonant ㅎ). Looking at the picture on the right, do you see a resemblance between the old letters we've already learned (top row) and the bottom row?

Before I go on any further, I need to explain what aspiration means. Aspiration is letting out a strong burst of air when making a sound. To feel or see the difference between aspirated and unaspirated sounds, one can hold a lit match in front of one's mouth, and say tore and then store. One should either feel a puff of air or see a flicker of the candle flame with tore that one does not get with store. In most dialects of English, the t is aspirated in tore and unaspirated in store( source). Another example is pat(aspirated p) and spat (non aspirated p).

The new letters we are about to learn are just the aspirated versions of the old letters we learned, we pronounce it the same way in the mouth except we let out more air. Also if you noticed, to write these letters you simply just add one more stroke.

Y sound vowels

Similar letters vowels.png

The vowels we'll be learning in this section are ㅑ, ㅕ, ㅛ, ㅠ, ㅖ and ㅒ. Once again, I'll ask: Looking at the picture on the right, do you see a resemblance between the old letters we've already learned (top row) and the bottom row? With these new vowels, you are simply adding a Y sound (IPA: /j/) in front of our previous vowels. As a simple example, we had previously learned that ㅜ sounds very close to the double o's in the word "moon." So for ㅠ we add a Y sound in front of ㅜ and now it sounds like "yoo."
