I remember when I was in a korean grocery shop and the seller told me I spoke korean very well despite the fact I actually said very short sentences. It’s because I used the same intonations in words that those I heard in my korean lessons and korean native speakers I used to talk to. Intonations improve pronunciation and help a lot better understanding. It’s as important as vocabulary itself !!
@Avishar oh yes you’re right, I was glad to hear that because I took it as the best compliment i ever received! I have the exact same thing as you, in any language I learn/speak I am quite good at mimicking intonations in words. That’s a perk ! 😊😊
Wow okay I'll get on that, then. I've seen evidence for this too. I can't understand many middle-eastern immigrants though their pronunciation is fine, because of intonation. Emfasis is so important in English
Your lucky because you actually have a native Korean speaker to talk to so that will help you a lot and you have Korean lessons- and I’m here trying to learn it alone😂🥲💔
I'm so glad someone actually taught this! I've never seen this addressed before in any Korean learning materials. But I have always felt that Korean has a very strong intonation/tone and rhythm to it. Many native Korean speakers (who aren't teachers) have said things to me like "our language is very flat". They simply don't notice the intonation Korean has because speaking is natural for them but it can be a struggle for Korean learners. I often had trouble being understood in Korean and I thought it was a pronunciation problem, but all along it was an intonation problem!
Right. Korean is obviously not the notated pitch of Chinese, nor free-roaming English, but the commonly heard “Korean is delivered monotone” is not true. There’s clearly pitch and time-stretched syllables for emphasis, and if we don’t say it that way it doesn’t sound like Korean (and natives can’t understand it).
It's funny to hear other people say their language is "flat" because that's how I would describe many American English accents. I guess everyone's language/accent sounds flat to themselves.
@@elliotlofton9970 That's a good point! When I lived in Korea and spoke Korean, people used to tell me I sound a like robot. I also used to think American English sounds very flat until I realized my students sound like robots when they speak. I guess every language has a rhythm that native speakers can't notice.
Intonation is actually a very important part of language learning. Especially if you would like to sound natural. By the way, "Korean intonation" (which is very recognisable) is the #1 reason why I love Korean language. What a great idea of video, thank you 예지 쌤 and TTMIK for the tips :)
It's also what my husband who cannot speak one word of Korean loves about it. At least that's what I think after many many hours of watching Korean films together (in original audio with subtitles ofc ^^). I also think it's a big part of the fun of learning Korean to try and get the intonation right. It seems just more fun to speak than my native language, even if that might sound a little sad xD
@@StragenTheDragon I got the same thoughts when I came to compare my language and Korean's. I've studied a bit abroad and met various international friends. Korean sounded so lovely to my ears while my French sounded attractive to them haha. We liked each other's language more than ours. The grass is always greener on the other side lol We grow up, embedded in our own language/culture so much that we sometimes don't appreciate its true value. It is sad, indeed
my korean q&a sentence patterns book just arrived and that ‘nanana’ imitating intonation tip is a game changer!! makes a world of difference, 항상 고마워요 예지 쌤!!
The editing seriously is so good with the text boxes that appear and the highlighting with the line artwork. It makes the video very enjoyable and gets your point across clearly. Keep going like that! I loved this video!!
The 나나나나 tip is the best! 😍 Intonation is something very dificult to me, so I love how I can just ignore the entire sentence and only focus on the way it is said 😁
I know intonation differs between regions in Korea. I’m a foreigner living in Gyeongbuk and the intonation that I listen to everyday is very much Gyeongsang dialect. Since I hear it all the time, even though my Korean level is only at an intermediate level I’ve been told my pronunciation and intonation matches Gyeongsang dialect 😂
How could a TH-cam channel be this much helpful to let us learn a whole new language!!! So much useful and fun to learn...best TH-cam channel ever in my life "ttmik"❤️❤️❤️
예지 선생님 정말 감사합니다! I don't know if I sound like a Native Korean or not but I do watch a lot of Korean Variety and Reality Shows and I absent-mindedly try to mimic the speakers there. Thank you for this video again! 🥰🥰 Love from India! 💕💕
Yes, intonation is SOOO important... let's take French -- my native language which has no accent and no tone -- for instance, intonation is heavily relied upon "Ça va?" with an upward pitch, means "How are you?" "How is it going?" but "Ça va!" with a downward pitch or a longer "enthusiastic" "vaaaaah" means "I'm fine!" "I'm alright!" or you can say "Ça va." in a "flat" way with a longer "vaaaaah" which means you are actually lying, and don't really feel that well or don't really mean it!
Thank you for this! When I taught English we tested students for this very thing. If you have natural intonation, it can make you sound more fluent (even if you miss individual sounds here and there). When I started studying Korean, therefore, I asked people about this very thing. And many people told me, Korean doesn't have stress. But um...it does. It has all of the things you talk about in this, and THAT is what makes a person sound fluent.
I always noticed that Korean words are pretty easy to pronounce and translate into the English alphabet. But the intonations almost feel like a whole language in and of itself when learning to speaking Korean. You can learn to say words, but having a flat intonation, as a lot of native English speakers do, changes the meaning of the word completely! Thanks so much for this helpful video!
The 'nanana' tip is so good though! I usually find it hard getting the right tone & rythm when difficult sounds were included. Also, this tip reminded me of how babies actually speak, learn and memorize sounds so I guess it really works. 예지쌤 너무 감사합니다 ❤
My Korean teacher always laughs at me because I use the wrong intonation when I introduce myself.. 🙃🤣 I always make a asking intonation instead of going " down/normal"
I also use an asking intonation when I read/speak because I always feel unsure about my pronunciation so it feels like a question ㅠㅠ My Korean teacher has been pointing that out to me too ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
@@Steph-qm1be truthfully english speakers do this a lot, like a LOT more than we realize! it's how we tend to express ourselves when we don't have confidence or assurance, even when not asking questions. so it's something we really have to undo when speaking other langauges
Excellent video! With my pronunciation teacher, we practice first the proper pronunciation of each word then he corrects my intonation. If I'm struggling to pronounce a word, it's hard to get the intonation. But once I've gotten pronunciation, the intonation comes easier.
I feel like intonation is the biggest thing I struggle with 😭😭 I live in Korea so I often have conversations in Korean, but I still haven’t picked it up. I will try out these tips! Thank you!
FINALLY! I could never articulate the issue of my Korean speech when I'm reading/speaking and it was intonation that I had a problem with. It's something that comes naturally, so I get why you can't really teach it perse, but gosh I'm glad there's a way to address it
I'm struggling with this so much. I have trouble picking up stress and intonation patterns in my own language, so trying to hear and replicate it in Korean is really difficult. It was really helpful having these graphs that show the intonation pattern. Thanks.

Such an important topic. Intonation is variation in pitch along with stresses and tones (=CHANGE in pitch) in the tone group. The music of the language. Thank you for this helpful guide. I notice a couple of differences between voice and visual patterns of intonation. I'll watch again and send you notes in case you want to update.
Exactly what I have been looking for! Intonation has always been something I struggle with and even though I have improved a lot, I now have some new strategies to try. Thanks!!!
This was a great, informative video! I have often wondered about intonation in the Korean language....intonation seems to be an important part of speaking in Korean, which is why I have come to really like hearing it spoken!!! 😊
As a person, the Korean language is not my mother tongue, but I heard it for many years. I feel that this information is already in my mind.. I really like this channel..
Je vous remercie de tout cœur de nous enseigner cela. J'ai pour habitude de lire un texte ou une citation en Coréen mais...au secours 😂. Mais maintenant, je sens que je vais m'améliorer ❤
Thank you for this. I come from a country, where we don't really use intonation, the questions don't even have a different type of intonation as normal sentences. Thus will be a game changer in learning Korean.
Thanks you ! I want to learn Korean but I’m a french native speaker and when a search ressources or tips for learn I don’t find a lots of results 🥲 So I decided to watch English videos now it’s almost 2 years I’ve decided to really learn English so a lot have a too fast speaking for me but you’re speaking is just ✨✨✨So thanks you 😭💗
Highly recommend Lingodeer for this. At the end of each lesson they have a reading and talking section. You get to record your voice. I play the audio like 3x times to try to sound as close as to the native speaker.
If you’re a singer you can hear a lot of Korean intonation as notes on a scale. English generally is one note when you talk while Korean you’re literally saying specific words in different notes on a musical scale.
English is not one note u don't notice it cause ur a native speaker. Trust me when I was learning English, I always thought English speakers sounded like they're singing a song. especially british people and some specific accents in the US are very sing songy and not flat at all
very useful. how about a book on intonation with companion sound files? it would be very helpful to have the little diagrams for each sentence showing the ups and downs. also, could you talk more about the difference between tones and pitches in Korean?
I’m Korean American living in the US rn but born in Korea. Watching this video I realized that my intonations change only when the phrases are questions 😅
I remember when I started learning back then, I made the mistake of confidently saying an yong ha se yo and stressed on each 😅 then later I realised you gotta combine and kinda swallow some parts of the word. From then on, my speaking skills improved faster. I'm still struggling with my writing though 🤭
Eu já tinha aprendido sobre isso, então comecei a usar, mas fui acusada de "tentar copiar" o sotaque coreano, e ainda disseram que eu era koreaboo I had already learned about it, so I started using it, but I was accused of "trying to copy" the Korean accent, and they even said I was koreaboo
O que é estranho pois em português o significado de uma palavra muda de acordo com a sílaba tônica. Estão para nós cuidar qual a intonação seria mais forte é algo básico
Yeah, I've seen people being accused of being koreaboos if they try speaking closer to a native Korean intonation. I genuinely don't understand it, it feels like the people who say this have never attempted to learn another language because it's such a stupid argument lmaoo Like, the goal when you're learning another language is to communicate as close to a native speaker as possible!!!!
Intonation is so important in any language, but native speakers often don't notice it because it's so natural. In English, we rely a lot on intonation even if we don't notice it. Say the words 'bus stop'. You will say 'bus' higher, and 'stop' lower. If you say 'bus stop' in one tone, it sounds weird and awkward. It's a small and random example, but demonstrates the use of tone in the English language.
*You are really good at pronunciation and everything is wonderful. Keep it up I like your channel and you* *أنتِ جيده حقًا في النطق وكل شيء رائع. استمر في ذلك ، فأنا أحب قناتك وأنتِ*
That's true. Native Korean speakers always congratulate me on my pronunciation and accent, they say I speak like natives( polyglot15dream, you will have my video on TikTok) . However, I am humble enough to know that I am lack of Vocabularies and grammar. Living in Haiti 🇭🇹 makes it even harder because you can hardly find people to practice with and you can't learn the language anywhere here.
Gosh, I would just melt if I met a Korean woman who speaks English as well as Yeji does here. I work with Koreans all the time at my company, and they're all terrible at English except for one guy, and even he's just decent. I may have high standards, but it's no exaggeration to say that I've talked with thousands of Koreans during my time in Korea, and only two of them had what I would call great, natural-sounding English. Good work, Yeji!
A challenge with this is I fel intonation in drama is often different from how real people speak. I don't know if it's actually true but I feel like they always sound different, so maybe by learn intonation from dramas from example you could be learning it weird and maybe sounding fake.
Intonation is something I want work on. I didn't realize how tonal English is. My worry when working on Korean intonation is using too much and sounding like I'm speaking dialect 😆. Anyone here please give me some tips of you see this 🙂? My Korean teacher helps a ton but I also like advice from others too.

I remember when I started learning back then, I made the mistake of confidently saying an yong ha se yo and stressed on each 😅 then later I realised you gotta combine and kinda swallow some parts of the word. From then on, my speaking skills improved faster.
I'm still struggling with my writing though 🤭
Eu já tinha aprendido sobre isso, então comecei a usar, mas fui acusada de "tentar copiar" o sotaque coreano, e ainda disseram que eu era koreaboo
I had already learned about it, so I started using it, but I was accused of "trying to copy" the Korean accent, and they even said I was koreaboo
O que é estranho pois em português o significado de uma palavra muda de acordo com a sílaba tônica. Estão para nós cuidar qual a intonação seria mais forte é algo básico

Yeah, I've seen people being accused of being koreaboos if they try speaking closer to a native Korean intonation. I genuinely don't understand it, it feels like the people who say this have never attempted to learn another language because it's such a stupid argument lmaoo
Like, the goal when you're learning another language is to communicate as close to a native speaker as possible!!!!
@@asserehe5075 pelo nome acredito que você fale português ksksk
Sim, acho isso também, por isso tenho um pouco de vergonha de falar em coreano
정말 너무 감사합니다😄💜
I can speak Korean pretty well, but I have a strong "American accent" oddly since I'm not white but probably because I was born and raised in the US.
I get that intonation! Some kids think I'm a native speaker because of that intonation. Ilonggos also have that In the Philippines the way they speak.
말 시작할때마다 '아니'를 붙이면 거의 원어민 느낌 납니다 행님들 : )
Intonation is so important in any language, but native speakers often don't notice it because it's so natural. In English, we rely a lot on intonation even if we don't notice it.
Say the words 'bus stop'. You will say 'bus' higher, and 'stop' lower. If you say 'bus stop' in one tone, it sounds weird and awkward. It's a small and random example, but demonstrates the use of tone in the English language.
Thank you

This was extremely helpful, I'm going to start using the 나 나 나 tip right away. 감사합니다!
I have tried to study intonation accidentally but the idea to replace the syllables with random ones sounds good
This replace all the syllables with one random syllable thing sounds fun and helpful. I'm definitely going to try it :)
That's true. Native Korean speakers always congratulate me on my pronunciation and accent, they say I speak like natives( polyglot15dream, you will have my video on TikTok) . However, I am humble enough to know that I am lack of Vocabularies and grammar. Living in Haiti 🇭🇹 makes it even harder because you can hardly find people to practice with and you can't learn the language anywhere here.
Gosh, I would just melt if I met a Korean woman who speaks English as well as Yeji does here. I work with Koreans all the time at my company, and they're all terrible at English except for one guy, and even he's just decent. I may have high standards, but it's no exaggeration to say that I've talked with thousands of Koreans during my time in Korea, and only two of them had what I would call great, natural-sounding English. Good work, Yeji!
anaseya thank you
I love your channel
sarange💖
I am learning Korean new word and sound your channel
thank you
A challenge with this is I fel intonation in drama is often different from how real people speak. I don't know if it's actually true but I feel like they always sound different, so maybe by learn intonation from dramas from example you could be learning it weird and maybe sounding fake.
Some of my friends do talk with right intonation, but still, it creeps me out. I get goosebumps🤣🤣
Really need this video thank you so much!!!!
I really like how u teach us!!!!
Your English intonations are awesome!
Learning 한국 from talktomeinkorean and I always wondered why I sound off when I read it out from probably a post I saw....
This is so helpful thank you very much for these videos. 🙂🙂
THIS IS PERFECT! THANK YOU! EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR!
Sad I can only like once 😢

I love Korean intonation. So cute.
0개국어인 저에게 매우 좋은 영상이네요 감사합니다.
한국인인데 많은 도움이 되네여 감사합니다
💜감사합니다!
글로는 독학으로도 충분히 원어민 스럽게 구사할 수 있는데 억양은 어려울듯.. 최소 몇년을 한국인들끼리만 말을 해야 원어민 스러울 것 같은데..ㅋㅋ 저도 다른나라 언어를 배우는 입장으로서 한국어 배우시는 분들에게 응원을 해드리고 싶네요🙂
Gotta start to practice from now. 2 years left for university.
Intonation is something I want work on. I didn't realize how tonal English is. My worry when working on Korean intonation is using too much and sounding like I'm speaking dialect 😆. Anyone here please give me some tips of you see this 🙂? My Korean teacher helps a ton but I also like advice from others too.
