Confused on how this should be pronounced: 각

Postby freyjarocks » July 6th, 2014 2:44 am

Hi,

I am new to learning Korean. I have a language learning textbook and it gives the example 각(gak) to pronounce. I thought that the first character would sound more like a k sound with the last sounding more like a g sound. Kinda of sounding like kag. Any help would be great.

Hi there,

The best way to learn proper pronunciation would be to listen to native Koreans.

So please follow the link below:

In the above lesson, you will hear 가. So please add the ㄱ batchim to 가.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
