Jae, this was very helpful and answered something I had often wondered about. Thank you for making these videos. I love the way you teach and how you try to help us so clearly. I love your voice, and you seem to have such a gentle spirit it is a joy to learn from you. I look forward to your next video. :-)
Thank you for this! It's really informative. I'm curious, does this mean native Korean speakers who are learning English and haven't yet mastered /f/, would tend to pronounce it as /p/ (like 'four' > 'pour' and 'self' > 'selp')? And a related question: How would a native Korean speaker with very little English pronunciation experience pronounce these words: the, think, south, breathe? Thanks again!
Hello, I am Regiana. I am so happy because I can learn Korean easily and fun with KoreanClass101.com. I have a question how do i write my name in Korean "re" using 레or 래? and what is the difference? thank you ^^
It is just an introduction and stating fact. My question is HOW can you teach those English sounds to a Korean person for words such as 'River', 'victory' etc. Thanks.
I am trying to teach a little Korean boy how to pronounce /f/, but he pronounces it as /p/, and I can see from your video why. Is there a short video in Korean that teaches how to pronounce the /f/ in English? If so, could you please post if here for me to share with him? Thank you.
Actually my name is "SHARVANI" and the letter "V" comes in between R & A can you tell me how to pronounce it please 🥺 By the way the video was nice it helped me thank you ☺️
a long time ago Hangeul was better with a special letter for V sound => ㅸ So Victoria would be written ᄫᅵㄱ토리아 😎 ah it's supposed to be ㄱ under the ᄫᅵ but I cannot make it 😂
why he wrote "g" instead of "k" in vic(k)toria...as much as I know that gun kind of symbol is for g and k includes one horizontal line also....am I wrong??
Hello Ferlin, Thank you for posting. To answer your question, the name Ferlin would be written in Korean as 펠린. Please let us know if you have any other inquiries. Best, Team KoreanClass101.com
Hi Snotita ! Thank you for your comment. Your name in Hangul would be [스노티타(seu-no-tee-ta)]. Hope you like your Hangul name. Please let us know if you have other question. Thanks! Best, Jiye Team KoreanClass101.com
Hello BTS MRS.TAEKOOK, Thanks for your comment, and we may write the English alphabet "w" as [더블유]. Hope it helped! Best, Rebecca Team KoreanClass101.com
I just came back from Korea, and with the sheer amount of English borrowed words there (literally 1000s I've seen), why can't Koreans just petition to introduce an "F" hangul to their system (and FF to make a V sound maybe?)? That way they can stop saying Prance, Copy, Capé, Pork, etc. lol.
(sorry for answering one year late) In Japanese, Katakana is identical to Hiragana in sound, just different in shapes, stroke order etc. Transliteration of foreign words still requires some adaptations, as such "fa" is written as "fua" because of the "fu" katakana.
