BILLY : It's not ' maa ' it's ' maa ' Me : 😭😭😭😭😭

I like to imagine as if there was an H between consonant and vowel, like, "다" sounds kinda like "tha", "가" sounds like "kha"

Wow, the 'dog/log' example really made the sound a lot clearer to me, thank you so much! I'm looking forward to the rest of this course :)

Tip! : ㅅ, For ㅅ, it is like the starting of the letter “snake” but not as strong as the starting letter “same”

I love how you added tongue position. That helps so much. I just purchased your book so these videos help a lot. I just go along with where I'm at in the book. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.

ok so I speak both english and arabic as my native mother tongues. Through all the videos I have seen from Koreans teaching how to pronounce these (hard korean letters that don't exist in english language) I realized that yes they do not exist in the english language BUT they do exist in the Arabic language! and are some of the letter that english speakers struggle to learn. That's on being bilingual !

hi ! i’ve been learning for a long time now and some things that helped ME when learning how to REMEMBER the consonants! “ㅂ” looks like a bucket and it has that “b” or even a “p” sound! “ㅈ” almost looks like a pair of jeans! also sounds like a “j” or “t” sound! “ㄷ” looks like an open door, also has the “d” sound. ”ㄱ“ this one kind of looks like a gun in a way ahah, it as-well has the “g” sound! “ㅅ” looks like a ski ramp or hill and has the “s” sound. “ㅁ” looks like a mouth or an open mouth, it has the “m” sound. “ㄴ” this one is kind of funny, what does it remind you of? to me it looks like a nose haha. so think of it as maybe a nose or anything different! this has the “n” sound. “ㄹ” this one i couldnt think much of! i think of it as a snake even tho it’s pronounced in between “l” and “r”. let me know what helps you remember that one! “ㅎ” this one looks like a hat! and has the “h” sound. “ㅋ” this one looks like a key! this has the “k” sound. “ㅌ” this one looks like a sideways “table”! this has the “t” sound. “ㅊ” this one looks like a child haha. this has the “ch” sound! and lastly.. “ㅍ” this looks like pillars! this has the “p” sound. i hope this helped and if i forgot any let me know and i will help! thank you for taking your time to read this for help/tips! if you read this put a “🔥” because you are doing great !!

I already watched and finished your Hangul lessons and know all the letters I'm just watching again for a review

I cant hear the doferences in pronaunciation at all 😭😭 hopefully trough time...

I'm not native to english language so i thought it would be hard to learn from a english based course, but is surprisingly not hard. Thank you for making it free.

i dunno if it helps anyone but i like to think that in korean the focus of each syllable is on the vowels rather than the consonants, so you annunciate the consonants less and focus on the vowels. in korean the vowels are the main sound, with consonants in between; in comparison to english where it’s more consonant heavy with vowels in between~

I first watched your video because I want to learn Korean, but I didn't understand it, so I learn the alphabet with Duolingo and now I understand your explanation. 감사합니다

I'm watching this series as a review, and it's amazing to HEAR how far I've come in my studies. A year ago I couldn't hear the difference between 마 and "ma" at all, and now it's clear as day!

I started a month ago and now iam revising it fortunately now I can read hangul😊thq Billy

This dude is a legend well since I'm an Indian these sounds are really similar to Hindi so its pretty easy for me tho and thank you so much dude for teaching us this well

Hangul is very similar to hindi letter And as I'm Indian It's really easy for me to learn now 💜💜💜

Thank you so much Billy for your thoughtfulness of doing this course free of charge, and giving a change for people like us to learn this language, hope you’ll have a blessed life. Thank you sir.

Many of the sounds are similar to how we pronounce them in Spanish. I’m half Spanish-half English, and I end up using Spanish most of the time (with tad of English) to try and find the best pronunciation. 😄 Thank u Billy for these lessons! I really love the Korean language and would lo to be a bit fluent one day 💜🙂

this guy is awesome!!! In Seul now doing some handwork but listening and looking so I am learning a lot. Thanks for your generosity

Wow this helps a lot more! I’ve watched videos but never understood nor processed Hangul in my brain! Thanks this helps I will ask my dad to get me your books for my birthday! Thanks so much! This helps

The motivation behind that it's free and you answer email question ?! ... The user friendly detail ... The clarity from the detailed instruction ... that makes exacting results ... I'm up to this latest explanation (of my newly begun Korean study) of how to correctly write Korean fast and be confident to sound truly Korean with the leul consonant by softly saying dog then sounding like 'log' ... .It's awesome ... I'm grateful ... I'm hopeful and excited to be 'good to go' ... God Bless you Sir Billy ...

Thank you very much for the lessons,I've learned a lot of lessons thank you♥️♥️

Another great lesson.

Notice how it isn't... Me noticing it is...🤣🤣

Thank you so much for making these they are great and I am really enjoying them ❤️

This is amazing.. you teaching method is soo amazing.. learning this language just because of your way of method.. Love you'

Just finished first lesson - thanks!

More tongue positions please it helps sooo much.

Thank you so much for these lessons!

It also helped a great deal when you explain how you place your tongue to pronounce the sound. Like in the example dog/log.

Thank you for the lessons belly 😍

These pronunciations are quite easy for me as I'm an Indian 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳❤. And thx sir for such good course. I was roaming in whole internet to learn korean and i find u and i am grateful for that. Thx for such amazing video or I should say such sugoi video. WTF sugoi means amazing in Japanese 😊😊

Many thanks 🙏🏻

This helped me so much like I can’t explain my gratitude thank you thank so much

Great video! Thank you so much.

If you are Indian and know hindi then some sounds are easy to pronounce beacuse it's similar like Bieup is similar to "भ" and Digeut is similar to "ध" and all strong consonents excatly sounds like Hindi alphabets

It really helpful to learned basic korean/hangul THANK YOU!

Awesome teacher.

Hangul is very very much similar to tamil so its really easy for me to catch up. Thank you so much for your effort Mr.Billy because of you its even more easier for me.

Love this channel~ very helpful especially to all beginner/s like me 😍🤙🏻🤙🏻

3rd Video of my Korean Language Class.

Great job teaching!

I find it harder to pronounce the ㄱ and ㄷ rather than ㄹ because the other two sound a lot closer to g/k and d/t but ㄹ has a distinct sound

Thanks for the free classes, i love you

Learning how to pronounce ㄹ has helped so much!!!!!

Really great teacher! Wish you could teach other languages as well!!!

so my sister just started learning korean(i taught her some words and phrases before but that was it) and even though you said we shouldn't use romanization she knew if she wrote the letters down without any kind of romanization she'd mix them up, so she created this really weird system where she writes a bunch of sounds and blends them together into one sound, lemme show you what i mean: 가-kgᴿah(i still have no idea why the "ᴿ" makes the sound softer) 자-chjˢᴿah 나-nᴰah 까-kgah 하-hᴿah 라-dlah and because I'm her 선배님 she made me review her pronunciation and it actually works for some reason! so anyway your course has been super helpful to her, and I'm jealous because 𝒃𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝒊𝒏 𝒎𝒚 𝒅𝒂𝒚... (insert old person rant here about how this course didn't exist and how we had to memorize so many types of syllable blocks bcz billy overcomplicated them)

Wonderful thank you

Amazing person

Thankyou sir for teaching ❤ you are awesome 😎

WOW, THANK YOU VERY MUCH

this is epic I already knlw hangul and i 'm relarning it cause its so good to knpw more about it and also useful

Lesson 3: recognizing, reading and writing ✅

하 하 하 It sounded like a very monotone laugh when you repeated it 😂

Thank you so much...

Hey, look at that, I actually did learn something new! I never thought there was an order to draw the letter, but I tried and it is indeed easier to draw them, and they look better!

OK, the first one, it's like a K but not a K, it's like a G but not a G, get it? second one, it's like an N but not an N. moving on, this 3rd one is like a T but not really, it's close to a D, but neither. OK, the 4th one, neither an L or an N, but in between, but you have to put your tongue like saying a D, but don't say a D, say an L sound instead, Got it? Me: Uhmm...OK...should I continue? and I thought I could pick up some basic Korean since I watch way too much K-drama. Just kidding! I just came across your series. You're doing a good job, one of the best youtube videos teaching Korean. Keep up the good work. Mandarin, Cantonese, Thai, French, German, Japanese, I can do OK. I'm going to try Korean next.

You are the best Billy ily ❤❤

I an so in love with bts even i am learning this language for them

thank you!

wow I got a bit tripped because I had learned the alternative way to write ㅎ. Really appreciating going back through the basics because I also didn't learn proper stroke order.

Thx for learn korean

Hangul becomes more easy to learn to those who know Hindi language. The pronunciation matches so many times .

Thank you for giving me a chance to learn a new language! I agree totally about how romanization is bad. One of the languages I grew up with have a couple of extra letters added to the "english latin" alphabet. Those letters are crucial to pronounciation. Whenever I see them translated to "english-latin-script" they never come out right. Sometimes this replacement of letters make the whole word, and sentence, incomprehensible. And thank you for the dog/log - that helped!

The fact that my mothertongue is bengali and I know hindi quite well makes this lesson a tad bit easier hehe

The pronunciation is kind of similar to Tamil and its easy to learn for me, btw while practising my whole fam was staring at me loll.Thank u for the lectures billy

I had so much trouble with ㄹ

I have such a hard time with pronunciation 😂 but will definitely watch every video several times so I can get it right sooner or later.

Wow interesting ❤

#3 done ✅

Billy, you are a great teacher! May I ask for some tips on how do I learn to increase the speed of my reading in Korean?

라 do be sounding like law 😭😭🤚

It's not LA is actually LA My mind - Gosh this is gonna be difficult

when you realize its quite easy to understand the pronunciation as a Nepalese or Indian!

ㄹ also sometimes sounds similar to Spanish R right?

ive learned to say all of these differently so now i guess i need to re learn all this X_X

It's official I'm completely tone Def. Every time you is it's not la or ma that's exactly what I hear.... Even when I just try to listen to the sound only....

Lesson 3

Tomorrow is my english language test and here I am learning korean... lol :D

yoo if this man confuses me ONE MORE TIME 😭 sorry billy I’m slow

Well feel happy to know Hindi because some of these words have exact sound as in hindi like this is( ㄹ ) ड.

I'm from Bangladesh And all the sound are similar Bangladesh language latter So I practice easily 💝

Is it just me or the shape of the consonant changes when pair with a vowel.

오히려 영어듣기 공부가 된다 ㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎㅎ

I have a question Are 다 And 바 Are pronounced the Same? Because both of them sound like pa to me 😶

Billy, I am struggling with the paper orientation. Do I keep it vertical or slant it (as I was taught in grade school)?

I am thinking that you might have degree in linguistics. These phonetical graphics are scientific images. Great work, thank you for the effort!

the 마 is not just ma but if you think of the m as similar to b then it could help (but not ba lol) just a kind of in between m and b idk if this makes sense to other people lmao

On an app to learn the characters, and on my apple Korean keyboard I have ㅎ instead of the line coming down ㅗㅇ and can’t figure out how to create it your way - the app says ㅎ is the ‘ha’ sound. Are they both right?

I remember it like Lah, mah, bha, jha, sah and hah...there is some kinda h sound exist in every letter 👀😁

As a native burmese is good for me estoy bien

Can't comprehend the pronunciation even though you explained it very clearly

The log trick didn’t really work for me but others than that you lessons are really good

I have to Come And read.. Lya. Mya pya sya chya hya😂😂😂 uuu have tried am new biginner

I’ve been trying to find a resource w the actual names of the letters but i’m having some trouble. Anyone know of a vid i can watch?

If my parents walked in on me trying to differentiate the difference of “Sa“ and ”사“ they’d think I’d gone mad 😭

I've been working on memorizing a little bit every night. Tonight I worked on the syllables 라, 마, 바 and 사, but My pronunciation sounds like I'm saying "Llama pasta" 🤣😭

Quick question why do some of the consonants change slightly when put with a vowel? Do we have to draw it that way for it to be proper or could it stay the in the "base" form?

Could you please explain why the consonant changes shape when added to a vowel on some but not others?

wow, this is a little bit difficult that the lesson 2 ... it's ok. i will practice a lot
