안녕하세요 여러분. Koreanclass101.com 하나하나 한글시리즈의 에이미입니다. Hi everybody! I’m Amy and welcome to Hana Hanaㅂ Hangul on KoreanClass101.com - The fastest, easiest, and most fun way to learn Hangul, the Korean alphabet. |
In the last lesson, we learned these four consonants. |
You now know well over half of the characters in written Korean, and we’ll learn another three today! Ready? Let’s get started! |
Our first character is really easy to remember. It’s just a square: ㅁ[m]. |
미 |
마 |
먀 |
머 |
며 |
므 |
무 |
뮤 |
모 |
묘 |
To remember the sound of this character you could think about the shape of a monitor, or an open mouth. |
Try to read this: 머리. |
This means “head.” |
Let’s look at this character again. Think of this like a box. Now, press the top of it down until the air inside it is under more pressure. What does an “m” sound like when it’s under more pressure? “b” |
비 |
바 |
뱌 |
버 |
벼 |
브 |
보 |
뵤 |
부 |
뷰 |
Here’s a word you’ll often hear on TV. 바보. This means “fool.” It can either be playful or rude depending on how it’s said, so be careful! |
Let’s go back to our box under pressure. If we add any more pressure, it might explode! And then it would like this. What’s a “b” |
sound like with even more pressure? “p”. |
피 |
파 |
퍄 |
퍼 |
펴 |
프 |
포 |
표 |
푸 |
퓨 |
Try reading this word: 피부. This means “skin”. |
And here is a phrase that you could use in Korea: 아파요. It means “I’m sick.” or “It hurts.” |
You can use some words from past lessons to make this sentence more advanced. |
In the last lesson, we learned the word “where”: 어디. You can add this to the phrase and get “어디 아파요?” Literally, it means “where does it hurt?” |
And you already know a few body part words! Remember the word for "head"? 머리. So how would you say your head hurts? |
We can say 머리아파요. “My head hurts.” or “I have a headache.” |
Any other body parts we know? It’s a little strange, but we just learned the word for “skin”: 피부. |
피부 아파요. My skin hurts! |
Nice work! You might have started watching to learn the Korean writing system, but you’re also getting a jump start on general Korean knowledge! If you haven’t tried out the audio lessons on KoreanClass101.com, now’s a great chance to try out some real life conversations! |
And, you will learn the final three consonants in the next lesson! You’re only one lesson away from knowing all the unique shapes in Korean. After that, it’s just a matter of positioning those shapes around to create different words. Be sure not to miss the next lesson of Hana Hana Hangul. See you next time! 여러분 다음에 만나요 |
