LESSON 07 · HANGUL PRACTICE About 8 min

Add a final consonant

Read ㄴ, ㅁ, ㅇ and ㄹ at the bottom of simple syllables.

Sound options

Choose a voice and play the sample. Availability depends on your device.

Your voice choice stays in this browser. Some voices need internet.

Check your media volume and Bluetooth connection. Choose another voice or recheck after enabling the language in your device's speech settings.

A rough reading aid, not exact pronunciation. Hyphens separate syllables. Listen first, then try with hints hidden. “eu” is said with unrounded lips; “uh” only approximates ㅓ. Doubled consonants are tense, not extra syllables. Do not add a vowel after a final consonant.

Read, compare and repeat

Learn what batchim means and read simple Korean words ending in n, m, ng and l. Compare the beginning and ending roles of ㅇ.

Pronunciation guides are approximate. Focus on the Korean audio as you learn.
