What do you think of the sentence? Want to try making a voice recording of your own? We just posted a fun challenge in the Community section of our new website: courses.talktomeinkorean.com/ Come and share your recording! Here's the full text: 오늘은 바쁜 일정도 많이 없고 약속도 없어서 국립 박물관 앞에서 의자에 앉아서 따뜻한 음료수를 마시고 있었는데, 갑자기 코끼리랑 까마귀가 나타나서 저한테 편의점에 같이 가 줄 수 있냐고 했어요.
I like it but can you also read it slowly. For example, first at your pace, then at a slower pace, then at your pace again. I really like your explanation of the pronunciation 😊
You shouldn’t be worrying about “mastering” any aspect of Korean if you can’t understand and repeat this yet. You’re still at a lower level and that’s ok! :) I recommend coming back once you’ve learned more!!
I love this exercise! Having the tricky pronunciations so close together will make it easier to remember. I tried watching it with the playback set slower, but it just makes you sound drunk. Maybe you could do one read through at a slower pace on the next one? And please, let there be a next one! 😊
Thank you for this video. I must admit it seemed overwhelming at first but then as we went through some of the words I was thinking to myself "I already have been saying it like that without even realizing it". Especially the words I've already internalized. Native English speakers have learned early on that letters in words are just guidelines to the word and it's by learning how to say the word itself we don't get hung up on all the different exceptions (as English is a hodge podge of many languages anyhow). So yeah, I may not remember all these sound change rules now, but neither does a child learning to speak... a child mimics the words and internalizes them. That said, I'll need to internalize each word in this sentence! Remembering the sound change rules... perhaps a bit later... ;)
I am not actively studying Korean right now but I saw this on my feed and watched it. I think this was presented really well. It's still pretty digestible to some extent even to someone who barely knows the basics. Love this, I'm slightly motivated to actually study right now LOL. It's so inspiring to study when you find someone good at teaching. Thanks for this!
After watching this video, I realised my reading and writing skills are less developed compared to my pronunciation and listening skills...!!! I can clearly pronounce the sentence better when I am listening to it than when I am reading it...!!! This was a good wake up call for me. Ahsante sana TTMIK...!!!
I understand the rules (I own the book😊) and this illustrates them well, but just too fast for me (even at less than normal speed). But I will copy the sentence and try a lot of practice.❤
Thank you, it is useful. 고마워요, 유용해요. Here is the sentence from the video: 오늘은 바쁜 일정도 많이 없고 약속도 없어서 국립 박물관 앞에서 의자에 앉아서 따뜻한 음료수를 마시고 있었는데, 갑자기 코끼리랑 까마귀가 나타나서 저한테 편의점에 같이 가 줄 수 있냐고 했어요. English translation: Today, I didn't have a busy schedule or appointments, so I was sitting on a bench in front of the National Museum, drinking a warm beverage. Suddenly, an elephant and a crow appeared and asked me if I could go to the convenience store with them.
I'm currently focusing my lessons on pronunciation (especially 받침 and double consonants at the end of a syllable) and this was SO HELPFUL because I was missing some important other rules (especially for "국립" )! 😄 I've been practicing but I still get confused with how the last consonant can influence the sound of the next one in the next syllable I'd love to see this type of video again ! Thanks a lot :)))
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 This is good, I've been having a very hard time letely with hospital apppintments and investigations.. but although my korean learning is painfully slow, becase I'm learning brail also, because of such severe visual difficulty.. this is good to explain some things. I appreciate it and will try learning this sentence fully~~🎉 👍🏻 💚
this was so helpful!! i love podcasts and videos, but sometimes it's hard to hear the exact sounds being made. i think the subtitles and several natural readings is very helpful for practicing listening, speaking, intonation, and even grammar. thanks for the video!!
Honestly, the way that you presented it is so perfect (for me). Identifying each word / letter pairing where the sounds are pronounced differently than we might expect, along with natural speaking speed, is incredibly helpful. Pairing with double consonants, pronunciation changing to double consonants, and identifying intonation is a learning point I don’t see presented. Of course it’s very challenging, but the number of pronunciation lessons here is invaluable. This differs from the longer sentences with specific grammar points and rules with the many particles and word endings, so this is a bit easier to work with. Here I can simply practice intonation, cadence, and pronunciation, and not have to think if I used and learned how to use the correct endings. A very different, and invaluable paragraph to learn with. Thank you so much!
I would love a video with different combinations of 를 and 을 for pronunciations. I hear different ways to pronounce them based on the proceeding letter. Examples: 사람을, 계획을, 쥐를, 피망을, 마늘을. Thank you.
Fantastic lesson! I copied the entire sentence to practice! I wish you had made a single PDF, so we could've just downloaded it and been able to print it out. Still, very helpful!
감사합니다 선생님 🙂 ㅋㅋ " 나무 아래서 예쁜 기린이 뜨개질을 하고 있었고 슬퍼 보였지만 나비가 와서 노래를 부렸어요. 기린은 나비에게 뜨개질을 줬고 나비는 태양이 되었어요. .. sorry if there are mistakes , english too is not my own language .
I just realized that I pronounce some of these words, such as '있냐고' correctly without even knowing😆 This video is so useful for me, all I got to do now is practice!👌
I love this approach, putting everything in context and why some consonants change is extremely helpful. I have a weird (maybe) question about written Hangeul that might just be my problem as I know I get visual stress from some typography. While I don’t get migraines from trying to read Hangeul I do get horribly lost mid-word sometimes (often). This lesson prompted two things. The first is a request to highlight the word (or even the syllable!) as it’s being read aloud. This could also help more proficient speakers who struggle with visual stimuli. The second is my particular weird observation/question relating to getting lost partway through. I’ve noticed from watching period k-dramas that I find vertical text layouts much easier to read as each syllable is seen in isolation and my eye moving down is more natural than holding it horizontally (I accidentally skip to the next line in Roman texts if the leading is too close as well!). Vertical signage in modern k-drama is a breeze as well. I can even read mirror images such as vinyl on windows inside cafés! Why did Hangeul change from vertical to horizontal?!?!? It can’t be to help Koreans learn to read Roman languages more easily, Koreans are equally as intelligent and proficient as Chinese who navigate both orientations (no pun intended!). If it was to accommodate English readers I shall cry.
I love this type of study but I agree it needs to be a bit slower at times. And, gently intended, it needs to be a little less condescending. This is difficult stuff for many of us.
Please keep making this kind of tutorials. I will take TOPIK exam soon so I can work in Korea. Wish me luck with my exam next year! 🥹❤️ Can you also give tips how to memorize vocabs quickly? I'm having trouble with vocabularies. 😅
Staram się , próbuje ale więcej nauczyłam się angielskiego. Polski ma zupełnie inny szyk zdania, a gramatyka bardzo się różni. Jednak bardzo podoba mi się sposób w jaki uczycie i pomimo, że zapewne nigdy nie będę mówić po koreańsku to z przyjemnością oglądam wszystkie treści 😂
Thank you for the sentence and explanation. I still keep wondering though and it's really hard to remember all the exceptions... trying to read along with you 😂😂😂 slowest speech setting on Papago/Google translate is still too fast for me 😂 At least I can break down the lines and practice from there 🙏
Great video. It helps a lot in my pronunciation. Sorry TTMIK I know this is a pronunciation video, but I can't get the over the English translation of this sentence -서 따뜻한 음료수를 마시고 있었는데, "and a hot drink I was drinking, and" I think it should be "and drinking a warm drink but," so it will be much more natural. Anyway, great job TTMIK. 😁
i just started taking classes this is really hard . i hope i can sound as smooth as that as soon as i can . learning how to corectly pronounce the alphabet is a challenge
Idk I think having different pronunciations which come from someone's accent is cute and charming and it gives you a hint on where they're originally from. Like how korean speaking japanese people often pronounce the ㄴ at the end of a word asㅇ, so cute like a little cat...웅냥냥 말투. As long as I can talk and be understood I don't think I'm bothered about perfect pronunciation, it's what makes us unique imo. If someone is feeling bad bc they can't nail their pronunciation and they have an accent when they speak korean then I hope you see this comment!!
One thing I struggle a little bit is with the rhythm of the sentences, like where to pause or where to add intonation. I sometimes feel like I sound like a robot (specially when reading out loud)
I'm still so slow at reading Korean. I've been studying for 2ish months, but it can be so frustrating! I knew most of these pronoucation rules, but my speed is so bad. Guess I am gonna write this out and try to get faster. Maybe one day.. 😅
Listening a second time, as many other languages, there seems to be a 'Law of the Least Effort' (a proper term, I believe!) operating in Hangeul. ... We have that in English!! a lot! (eg) 'national' being na-sh-on-al rather than nat-ee-on-al, (I apologise on behalf of native English speakers for 'nation' then being nay-sh-on!!!) Is there a proper term for the 'carrying over' of a batchim character if the next begins with o? They use 'liaison' in French and the English use the French word, as liaisons aren't so common in English, just lazy chopping like 'going to' often becoming goin' tuh!
You just scared me to death! I've listened to a lot on the Cake app, and the woman on there seems to have indistinct sounds and goes too fast! I'm very early stages, and feel like 'if in doubt pronounce as 't' ' !! OUCH! ;-)
Great idea but way too fast!!! Abdolutly no chance of keeping up. It might be an idea to read it slowly once and thrn speed it up. But I love the approach! 👍🏼
Also good listening practice. Why say it’s fast when there’s multiple speed levels with pause and rewind buttons 😢. In real life the native speakers don’t slowdown 😅 or have a rewind option. OMG! Couldn’t read this sentence at your speed but 10 repeats later and I’m finally at speed of normal! Yes! 😮
My issue is that I sound like I know how to speak Korean better than I actually do because my accent is pretty good (not perfect, but pretty good). I am a voice teacher, so I have a good ear and a good sense of tongue and sound placement. However, my understanding and knowledge is not very good. Almost every time I speak to a native Korean speaker they don't believe me when I tell them I'm not very good, they think I am just being humble! haha. " 정말, 아직 몰랐어." Then I get very lost in the conversation. I've had to memorize varied ways to say, "My pronunciation is better than my understanding." 발음이 좋아서 사람을 속이는데 이해력이 좋지 않아요. haha
dont worry u will get the hang of it. try learning some korean songs. thats how i learned pronunciation. its honestly the only thing i can actually feel good at lol honestly grammar and vocab are more important. but i do recommend learning korean songs anyway. it helps build familiarity with how words sound and how they flow together.
I will see if I could just stop the video regularly so that I can work on each of the syllable blocks and pronounce them over and over because that’s some sentence length!😮

this sentence is great but I still can't read at your speed. I can read correctly but at a lower speed 🤗
i thought my pronunciation was good until i watched this video lol, please continue to make more series of this!
I like it but can you also read it slowly. For example, first at your pace, then at a slower pace, then at your pace again. I really like your explanation of the pronunciation 😊
You shouldn’t be worrying about “mastering” any aspect of Korean if you can’t understand and repeat this yet. You’re still at a lower level and that’s ok! :) I recommend coming back once you’ve learned more!!
You can watch this part in slowmo by going to settings
I love this exercise! Having the tricky pronunciations so close together will make it easier to remember. I tried watching it with the playback set slower, but it just makes you sound drunk. Maybe you could do one read through at a slower pace on the next one? And please, let there be a next one! 😊

Please give us more sentences like this. It's really really helpful
This is the most helpful video I've seen so far to differenciate ㄱ, ㄲ and ㅋ, and understand how to pronounce ㅆ and 의
I am not actively studying Korean right now but I saw this on my feed and watched it. I think this was presented really well. It's still pretty digestible to some extent even to someone who barely knows the basics. Love this, I'm slightly motivated to actually study right now LOL. It's so inspiring to study when you find someone good at teaching. Thanks for this!
항상 유용한 팁 공유해 주셔서 감사합니다!! 도움이 많이 됐어요!! 고생 많으셨습니다 선생님

English translation:
Today, I didn't have a busy schedule or appointments, so I was sitting on a bench in front of the National Museum, drinking a warm beverage. Suddenly, an elephant and a crow appeared and asked me if I could go to the convenience store with them.

Anyonghaseyo sonsengnim. IT was very informative thank soooo much.
Very useful! I'll practise 🙂
Thank you very much! Such an interestjng and useful video! :D I really appreciate your work ❤
감사합니다, 선생님!☺
More lessons like this!
Je suis francophone mais j'aime énormément votre façon d'enseigner 😊👍❤ merci pour votre travail 😊👍감사합니다 😊
The TTMIK pronunciation book is my absolute FAVORITE book !! I'm always recommending it to other learners.
Gooood exercise, thx

한국인인데 홀린듯 보고있네요 ㅎㅎ😂
Too fast. Unable to follow. Definitely will practise. Fun though.😊
Me too…I’m still pronouncing syllables 😂 but appreciate the ability to listen and reading along…
Change the playback speed for the video.
@@laylaindy the ultimate goal is to be able to follow the speed of 선생님 one day.☺️
i always watch your videos 선송님.
Staram się , próbuje ale więcej nauczyłam się angielskiego. Polski ma zupełnie inny szyk zdania, a gramatyka bardzo się różni.
Jednak bardzo podoba mi się sposób w jaki uczycie i pomimo, że zapewne nigdy nie będę mówić po koreańsku to z przyjemnością oglądam wszystkie treści 😂
Very useful
Can you please make a training video for korean intonation in sentences? I mean raising and falling the voice in sentences
I like it!! I really want to improve my speaking and pronunciation so it's perfect. Still have a way to go to read as fast as you :D
Yay I did it 😁 i just had to read it once to get it correct in the second try tysm for this
Tip: playback speed settings are very helpful here!
Thank you for this! For the ㄴ I learned how to pronounce it by following how Korean cousin pronounced one of his names 군
Thank you for the sentence and explanation. I still keep wondering though and it's really hard to remember all the exceptions... trying to read along with you 😂😂😂 slowest speech setting on Papago/Google translate is still too fast for me 😂
At least I can break down the lines and practice from there 🙏
You're amazing 🎉😊❤
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH "I'm not mocking anybody", ok, I'll watch the full video and pratice.
Great video. It helps a lot in my pronunciation.
Sorry TTMIK I know this is a pronunciation video, but I can't get the over the English translation of this sentence
-서 따뜻한 음료수를 마시고 있었는데,
"and a hot drink I was drinking, and"
I think it should be "and drinking a warm drink but," so it will be much more natural.
Anyway, great job TTMIK. 😁
Thanks!! Yeah it was just a literal translation :D
i didn't even know i had so many words with bad pronunciation 😅
thank you for this~
AMAZING
대박!!!
i just started taking classes this is really hard . i hope i can sound as smooth as that as soon as i can . learning how to corectly pronounce the alphabet is a challenge
저번주에 일산호수공원에서 자전거 타고 가는 모습 봤어요. 너무 빨리 지나가셔서 인사를 못했어요
That is a very great idea, I was trying to write 1 phrase that has all the sound change rules compressed within it
Idk I think having different pronunciations which come from someone's accent is cute and charming and it gives you a hint on where they're originally from. Like how korean speaking japanese people often pronounce the ㄴ at the end of a word asㅇ, so cute like a little cat...웅냥냥 말투. As long as I can talk and be understood I don't think I'm bothered about perfect pronunciation, it's what makes us unique imo.

질문이 하나만 있는데 "일정"이나 "가 줄 수"의 "정" 와 "수" 바름은 [쩡] 와 [쑤] 알고 있지만 왜 "박물관"의 "관" 바름은 [관] 인 것같아요? 분명히 모두 다 "ㄹ"뒤에 있는 자음인데. 😂 성명해 주시겠어요? 너무 감사합니다!
"It's not 'NatanaSOW', it's (Natanasoh.)나타나서"
Lol that got me😂😂
What is 했어요?
Love it, thank you! I think my pronunciation is really good, but I still have a lot of grammar and sentence structure to learn.
One thing I struggle a little bit is with the rhythm of the sentences, like where to pause or where to add intonation. I sometimes feel like I sound like a robot (specially when reading out loud)
네, 나도요.
need to practice reading more😅😅
I'm still so slow at reading Korean. I've been studying for 2ish months, but it can be so frustrating! I knew most of these pronoucation rules, but my speed is so bad. Guess I am gonna write this out and try to get faster. Maybe one day.. 😅
I have a question, for lesson 1,are there only 3 lessons for free because I only have access to three lessons
I need to learn korean 😊
this sounds like something duolingo likes to make me say, the tiger fries an egg, the owl goes to the post office…
I give my self 7/10 for the reading 😅 + I was slower than you so it will go down to 5 or 6/10
안녕하세요 고마워요
Yes it’s great but slower one each word thanks
I just realized Mium sometimes sound like M and sometimes B 😢 Why?
Listening a second time, as many other languages, there seems to be a 'Law of the Least Effort' (a proper term, I believe!) operating in Hangeul. ... We have that in English!! a lot! (eg) 'national' being na-sh-on-al rather than nat-ee-on-al, (I apologise on behalf of native English speakers for 'nation' then being nay-sh-on!!!) Is there a proper term for the 'carrying over' of a batchim character if the next begins with o? They use 'liaison' in French and the English use the French word, as liaisons aren't so common in English, just lazy chopping like 'going to' often becoming goin' tuh!
교육영상을 보니 외국인 입장에서 한국어 발음하기 어렵겠네요😅
You just scared me to death! I've listened to a lot on the Cake app, and the woman on there seems to have indistinct sounds and goes too fast! I'm very early stages, and feel like 'if in doubt pronounce as 't' ' !! OUCH! ;-)
Oh my lord, I've been pronouncing a lot of this words so wrong ando nobody ever told me that!!
Great idea but way too fast!!! Abdolutly no chance of keeping up. It might be an idea to read it slowly once and thrn speed it up. But I love the approach! 👍🏼
Yes, a slower speed at first is better - I went to settngs and reduced the speed to .75 which is a nice speed for beginners. 😊😊😊
Can I get private lessons
Also good listening practice. Why say it’s fast when there’s multiple speed levels with pause and rewind buttons 😢. In real life the native speakers don’t slowdown 😅 or have a rewind option. OMG! Couldn’t read this sentence at your speed but 10 repeats later and I’m finally at speed of normal! Yes! 😮
Thanks for watching!!! : )
Like the lesson, but honestly, Noone reads that quickly in real life unless they are reading a ransom letter 😅
Damn Nice man... My Dead Grandma is calling 😂
My issue is that I sound like I know how to speak Korean better than I actually do because my accent is pretty good (not perfect, but pretty good). I am a voice teacher, so I have a good ear and a good sense of tongue and sound placement. However, my understanding and knowledge is not very good. Almost every time I speak to a native Korean speaker they don't believe me when I tell them I'm not very good, they think I am just being humble! haha. " 정말, 아직 몰랐어." Then I get very lost in the conversation. I've had to memorize varied ways to say, "My pronunciation is better than my understanding." 발음이 좋아서 사람을 속이는데 이해력이 좋지 않아요. haha
It seemed to fast. But I still am hesitant out loud. I'm trying to memorize phrases at speed. ❤
Next time if you could do it a little slower a couple of times, that would be very helpful.
the only thing that improved my pronunciation is singing songs. if u can learn how to rap thats even better. start with krnb though, its easier lol
Is there an easy way to remember all the pronunciation rules. It's really confusing and difficult.
dont worry u will get the hang of it. try learning some korean songs. thats how i learned pronunciation. its honestly the only thing i can actually feel good at lol honestly grammar and vocab are more important. but i do recommend learning korean songs anyway. it helps build familiarity with how words sound and how they flow together.
I will see if I could just stop the video regularly so that I can work on each of the syllable blocks and pronounce them over and over because that’s some sentence length!😮
I'm new here 🎉
