Korean 자음동화 (Consonant Assimilation) & Pronunciation Practice 

Notes & Corrections ✅ * 03:45 The correct pronunciation of the English word “ignore” should be “ig’nore,” not “ingnore.” It wasn’t a proper comparison with Korean ㄱ받침 + ㄴ consonant assimilation, so please disregard this word! * 22:40 Actually, the fully standard pronunciation of the combination ㄴ받침 + ㄱ consonant is literally "ㄴ + ㄱ." (For example, 한국 and 전국's standard pronunciations are 한국 and 전국, not 항국 and 정국.) However, when many native speakers pronounce this combination, the ㄴ받침 often softens, resulting in an "ㅇ받침 + ㄱ" sound. This should be understood as a common native pronunciation rather than a standard consonant assimilation phenomenon. * The same applies to these combinations 33:32 ㄴ받침+ㅁ, 35:54 ㄴ받침+ㅂ, 38:38 ㄴ받침+ㅎ, 58:16 ㄹ받침+ㅎ, 01:02:05 ㅁ받침+ㅎ : they are more of a common/comfortable native pronunciation, rather than standard consonant assimilation phenomena. Their standard pronunciation should be literal pronunciation, pronouncing them as they're written. Even though the aforementioned combinations are not the standard pronunciation, many native speakers pronounce them as shown in this video, unless their jobs require them to pronounce everything accurately. Therefore, knowing this can help you understand casual, real-life conversations better.

I really can't thank you enough for all the Korean lessons you've been posting for FREE! I just want you to keep teaching us Korean. Love you! ♡︎

I-i...... S-s..urvived through this video. I literally sat up for 8 hours straight! Pausing, writting, prepronouncing, repronouncing, repronouncing, writting, writting, listening, listening.. Made notes,notes,notes, examplenotes.. more of those notes. My brain circuit board ALMOST fried. But I'm very happy I got a grasp of your teachings. 감사합니다 . So hyped to learn Korean. 화이팅!

Your voice sounds strong and determined.

even if English is not my first language, i learned a lot not only in Korean but in English as well thanks to you. Thank you so so much for this video and your hard work

I don't comment often but I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your hard work to help us learn Korean, Vicky 쌤. I learn SO much from your lessons. This is probably the closest I'll ever get to having an authentic native Korean teacher. 정말 감사합니다! 😊

as someone who is still at beginner level (but maybe almost about at the intermediate level), this is the perfect for me because there are a couple assimilation rules that i did not yet know. thank you for another great lesson miss vicky, see you again next video!

Korean piqued my interest just recently and it was so hard to find a good starting point and also a teacher who covers everything, and believe me I cannot emphasis enough about how helpful this video is...i just finished watching and noting down. It feels like i have achieved /earned a Gem. I'll always be grateful for your video lots of love. Also if anyone is scrolling down wondering whether to start this video or not YOU SHOULD!!!!!!!! Just grab a pen and notebook to get started you won't regret it.

me: alright man it took me 4 days, but I finally worked through the 3 parts of Hangeul and Badchim, I'm glad it's over! *1 hour and 42 minutes of more badchim entered the chat* I'm just joking, I'm actually really really glad and thankful that you upload SO much content to practice for us! I literally searched "learning korean" on RU-vid like a week ago and your Hangeul lesson was the first video to catch my attention, so I've been working my way through your videos since! Learning and practicing with your videos is not only "easy", but it's efficient too. I can already read Hangeul a lot more fluently now than just a few days ago. I'm so thankful for the hard work you're putting into the lessons you teach us! ♥ Hope you're healthy and take care! Greetings from cold germany :)

U are one of the best teacher on RU-vid who teaches Korean so easily and makes it interesting.

Korean is too hard to memorize all words but you teaches korean language in simple way...before i don't read korean words but your video is very helpful to me and now I am readed all korean words very easily.... thank you...❤️❤️❤️❤️

Oh I was studying and here you posted an another one ( 4. 20 am here). I needed this. Thank you so much!!! 💜

I love you miss Vicky..thank you for all the free lesson you shared with us...stay healthy and pretty 😍 May God bless you everyday..😊

you know im watching all the ads so then you can get your coin even if you are giving these amazing lessons for free! also not even like 5 minutes in and the phrase "natural phonetic phenomenon" makes me feel smarter lol

Consider breaking it into smaller pieces for ease of digestion.

it took me 3 days to finish this lesson, totally worth it

it took me so long to finish this lesson! i learned so much and im really proud of myself for not giving up like i usually do. thank you miss vicky for making free educational content and helping us all learn! 💜

After exploring many RU-vidrs I found you. Really you are the best RU-vidr who teach Korean so nicely. I understand everything. So much love and blessings from bottom of my heart and from Bangladesh 🙇🏼‍♀️🇧🇩♥️

알고리즘에 이끌려 한국인이고 국문과인데도 들어왔어요 ㅋㅋㅋ! 응원합니다! 화이팅ㅇ

Thank you for the video. It took me one week to cover all the sounds. Thanks for the hard work on explaining this topic

I taught myself how to read and write Korean at an early age, but I never learned the meaning of words, context, idioms, etc. Your lessons are invaluable to folks like me. I sincerely appriciate everything you've put out - THANK YOU! I love how you break everything down. As your lessons progress, I find myself pausing and replaying a lot more. You're so awesome. Have a wonderful and blessed day. 😊👍🙏❤

Ahhhh.... today, finally I completed this lesson...thank you so much miss vicky you are helping me a lot...No tutor on instagram and RU-vid is teaching in such dept and you are doing amazing and helping a lot of people in learning that too Free of cost....I appreciate your work🙏 once again thanks a lot ❤️ LOVE FROM INDIA😘🇮🇳

The fact i watched these two 받침 videos in one set and actually understood it makes me super proud ,and it also means that you're SOOO good at teaching and explaining

Thank you for a great video! I still have some issues with this lesson, specially when trying to understand native Korean, but I will keep working on it.

외국인들을 위해 한국말을 가르쳐주는 마음이 정말 착하시네요

Very useful, thank you

Best Korean teacher on the internet 👌 💖 thank you so much for this great lesson 😊

This lesson is too underrated

You're too good for this world, honestly! I just hope you know how many of us appreciate you upload all of this for free. It honestly is something that brings a smile to myself when I think about how I can learn this wonderful language so diverse from my own, without having to worry about money, and from a native speaker!? amazing

this video was one of the most helpful videos i could watch on improving my korean reading and speech skills!! i learned so much. thank you for your hard work on this long video 👍

Thank you so much for such an amazing lesson. I'm taking Korean lessons at university and my teacher didn't explain this at all and I felt so lost. This video literally saved me. Please keep doing these lessons, you're an amazing teacher 😊

I’m a total beginner and I am so grateful for this lesson! Thank you so much for explaining so thoroughly and making this available for everyone on RU-vid! Hope you are taking good care of yourself because you deserve it!

The way you switch out that ink stub is amazing.

This is the best video on 받침 I've found so far on youtube. Absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!!

I did this lecture for 3 days, it really fried my brain but I'm doing good, thanks to the amazing teacher lol

I just started to begin my Korean language journey about a month ago, and I'm learning so much from you! You are a incredible teacher! I have a long away to go but I'm loving every step! ❤❤ Thank you so much for all these lessons you are amazing ❤❤

thank you so much this is my third day learning Korean and i am able to read all the symbols and memorize the rules I'm so grateful for that i just saw a korean word and read it and then i searched the meaning and realized it was hi i didnt even know how i read that correctly thank sooo much

as soon as you explained ignore as an example I screamed!! It makes so much sense thank you for always making it easier for us :)

Miss Vicky, you are a lifesaver. Thank you so much for all the lessons. I don't know how I would have learned my Korean without your lessons 진짜 감사합니다 ...💜💜

Thanks😭😭😭 you are the best person that excits in this world. You know how haré it is to fine a person with such a kind heavy. Love you😌🥰

I don't know if you already know this or not ...... But yours was the first channel where I could literally get all the lessons in an arranged manner in one place 고마워

it took me 5 days to finish this video and still, i am not sure I completely understand batchim, but Miss Vicky you are an absolute ledgend. Thank you so so much!

You are the best! These lessons are the best I have found and I truly appreciate the handouts to print and take notes. 😊

Ms. Vicky, I finished this one and printed the notes prior to watching this! Definitely learned a lot!

Thank you so much for this video! I have learnt so much in just one video, easily too as your explanations are so thorough with great examples :)

Best Korean teacher! You are so thorough, as if you can read my mind when questions pop up in my head during the lesson. Thank you so so much for your hardwork. May God bless you with happy life and good health.

More than grateful to you! This is such a revelation for someone who has been skipping pronunciation for years and ended up having subpar reading skills T.T

Hi! It's good to hear your voice and see your lessons🤗♥️

Wow!! This class was amazing!! I'm coming back to basics to help with my Korean listening and I really enjoyed this!! I believe it will be helpful in what I'm hearing. Thank you for creating this class!!

Thank you for taking your time making this detailed batchim lesson I really appreciate it

Miss Vicky I honestly can not thank you enough I’m a beginner and I’ve been watching your videos for a few weeks now and I already feel like a pro😂 The way you explain each lesson is soooooo helpful. Thank You Lots!!!

This video is amazingly helpful. The assimilation rules have been confusing for me, and the cheatsheet really helps. Thank you.

Thank you for your time and effort. I really appreciate all the work you put into your videos!

Teacher You Don't know how much I love your lessons 🥺💗 please keep it up !! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Hey Vicky!!! Thankyou so so so much for this lesson!!! It took me 4 days to complete this video and am so glad to made this. There were so many things I didn't knew about and literally am so grateful!!! Thankyou so much dear❤️ Keep going

Wow, thank you 빅키쌤 for the lesson! I'm taking notes on everything and will try to remember all of it. Once again, thank you!

You are one among my favorite utubers... I watched your previous vedios (different contents-self love, self care, meditation ) loved it. Thanks for this lesson.

Thank you so much I can’t describe how much it is helpful 😌👍선생님 너무 감사합니다 💜

Thank you so much for putting this together! Super in depth, and I feel I have a much better understanding now

빅키샘 안녕! 😆 한국어를 가르처요 정말 감사합니다! I finally know now why 같이 is pronounced like it is ✨ I look forward to more of your future lessons! They're so clear and easy to follow! 💛

너무 감사합니다 선생님 Even though I have completed all of my lessons, (2 levels of beginner terms and 3 levels of intermediate terms about 2 years ago from now), I'm struggling with all the pronunciation rules (and other Korean language related stuffs as well and I'm still not ready to move on to pre-advance lessons) as my school didn't give such a detailed examples lesson or not much examples were provided as each lesson was very rush and I'm so glad to have come across your video explanations / lessons. This is really extremely helpful & useful! 진짜 진짜 너무 감사합니다 고생했어요 선생님! Really feeling grateful to you and appreciate all of your time and effort! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😄😁🤓

These videos have been undoubtedly helpful in my journey to learning Korean. Thank you so much for creating these videos and a supportive community to learn Korean!

I remember yoy mentioned this -는 중이에요 in one of grammar lessons and i felt so smart when i knew how it translates hahah thank youuu!!!!!

Best video to recommend to any beginners of Korean language learning. I have came across several channels from YT but this is the most easiest to follow/understand and feels very organic to learn from.

Miss Vicky, a very BIG Thank you to you for doing this. I just picked up learning Korean, and have benefited so much from your teaching. As you mentioned in your last statement, "You guys cant imagine how much effort I put in to complete this material and video it" I can totally appreciate all the effort you have put it. 감사합니다

I was looking for lesson that teach how to read 한글 not only as 받침 but as a whole paragraph and how sounds are merged, concealed and change. Thank you so much this was incredibly helpful!! 선생님에게 많이 많이 고맙습니다

This is my third time watching this video. I'm not a brand new beginner, but it was still extremely helpful to watch this video. I realized I had forgotten many of these rules. So this time I used your notes and wrote down everything. It took 5 hours and 2 days to complete this lesson. But every time I was like a dry sponge and wanted so badly so soak everything up!!

Woah!! I m tired but excited as well... The lesson finally ended and i m so happy... I took all the notes in my register... And thank u so much unnie to help us with our korean.... I really loved the lesson so much!!! Now I'll move onto the next lecture of reading 2 badtchims together... once again thank u so much unnie

What a voice ❤ Love your voice and the patience the effort you put in teaching. If not for your video don't think I would've learned Hangul so quickly 👍

Hi Miss, thank you for this amazing lesson. Very useful 😄🌞🌻

영어 발음 대박이시다..ㄷㄷ 글씨체 실화냐구 동글동글 글씨체 귀여워요💖 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 외국인들 한국어 어케 배우나싶어서 와봤는데 영어 배우고간다는ㅎㅎ

와우! 저는 일찍 왔어요! Thank you for the updated lesson 🤧

thank you for uploading lessons for free, you helped me a lot!! love you!! :)

I couldn’t thank you enough for this lesson! 너무 감사해! ^^

i just discovered your channel and it already helped me a lot!! thank you for this 😵😵

Foi difícil achar esse conteúdo, muito obrigado professora😍🇧🇷

thank you Vicky for helping us! You have an amazing soul❤️

wow this is going to help me so much i can’t imagine how long it took you to prepare this though thank you vicky!

thank you so much i feel my reading improved so much learning from you. if i become fluent in korean its all thanks to you.

It took me around 2.5 days to complete this lesson that too on a 0.75x speed 😌 I can only imagine how hard and time taking it would've been for Miss Vicky to prepare such in-depth content and explain it to us in a video. Thank you so much 🩷

The reason y in English it’s so much easier to pronounce n with l is bc in english, the letter l is pronounced with the tip of your tongue touching around the same spot as the letter n, so when you connect, it becomes easier to say. It’s equivalent to in Korean where ㅇ 받침 comes before ㄱ consonant, as those two connect bc ur throat somehow touches at the same spot when pronouncing

감사합니다 for making a video on the topic that I am really confused ❤️🎀

Thank you very much for your effort in making these invaluable lessons. They are amazing 🙏

한국인의 유튜브 알고리즘에 떳다 한국어를 배우는 사람이 많아서 뭔가 뿌듯하다 우리같은 작은나라에 관심을 주니

Such a hardworking and wonderful teacher to organize every single pronunciation rules!!!! 🙌 I know this takes so much time and work! 👍 이 많은 발음규칙들을 하나하나 다 정리하셨다니 정말 수업준비 열심히 하신 게 느껴집니다!!! 🤭 학생들은 귀신같이 알잖아요? 구독자 분들도 그런 것 같아요, 댓글들을 보니! 👍

I think I won't find a Korean teacher like you since you give us everything as free..... Can't see a person like you...thank you and love you so much... I was trying to concentrate and diligently listen to her with sleeping brain 😴😪...in the middle... When she gave the example jungkook my brain started working and listening fast😂😂

Thank you for uploading. Learning every day.

Miss Vicky thanks so much I appreciate all your hard work to teach us.For free no less.

crazy but so helpful!!! now i can go with the ending particles! u amazing! xx

It's been my 3rd day with this video and with all other problems of mine, I've been able to come to 40 minutes of this video

신기하다...요런 유툽사랑해요! 한국어 널리 알려주세욤 ❤️❤️ 외국인 입장에서 보면 정말 어려워 보이겠네여ㅎㅎ
