안녕하세요, 여러분. 한글 교수님입니다.

Hi, everyone. This is Hangul Kyosunim.
00:21.0
00:23.2
Let's learn Korean together!
00:27.0
00:28.4
Welcome back to my channel.
00:28.8
00:29.4
Previously,
00:29.7
00:31.5
we have learned about the consonants.
00:32.2
00:35.0
The single consonants and the double consonants.
00:35.7
00:38.3
Now, we will learn about the vowels.
00:38.8
00:40.4
But before we begin the lesson
00:40.5
00:42.1
make sure to ready your notebook
00:42.3
00:44.1
and something to write with.
00:44.4
00:47.0
Either a pencil or a pen will do the trick.
00:47.5
00:49.1
So, let's begin.
00:49.5
00:51.5
Start!
00:51.6
00:52.2
Vowels
00:52.7
00:54.7
There are two kinds of vowels.
00:54.8
00:58.0
The single vowels and the double vowels.
00:59.1
01:00.3
Single Vowels
01:00.7
01:03.1
There are 14 single vowels.
01:03.4
01:06.8
I will introduce them to you one by one with some words
01:06.9
01:11.8
that begins with the single vowel which is being currently introduced.
01:20.9
01:22.9
This is the first single vowel.
01:23.3
01:29.3
It is a vertical long line that has one short line attached on its right side.
01:29.9
01:33.0
This is read as 'a', 'a'.
01:34.4
01:40.4
One more time, 'a', 'a', 'a'.
01:42.3
01:44.1
Do you still remember that I told you
01:44.4
01:47.4
about the silent consonant 'Ieung'?
01:48.0
01:51.2
Yes, because if the word begins with a vowel sound,
01:51.5
01:56.8
then we know that the word must be spelled with a vowel first.
01:58.3
01:59.9
Unlike in Korean language,
02:00.0
02:06.0
even if we hear the word and we know that the word begins with a vowel sound,
02:06.2
02:09.8
it must be spelled with a consonant first.
02:10.8
02:13.4
Since it doesn't have a consonant sound at the beginning,
02:13.7
02:16.2
we must use the silent consonant 'Ieung'.
02:17.4
02:22.9
Everytime we see the silent consonant in the initial position of the first syllable of the word,
02:23.5
02:29.3
we should keep in mind that if we read the word, it must begin with a vowel sound.
02:31.4
02:32.8
Let's take a look at this word.

02:36.6

Notice this letter at the final position of the syllable?
05:23.1
05:25.3
Yes, it is siot.
05:26.4
05:29.0
I know we should read it with its 's' sound,
05:29.5
05:31.5
but because it is a batchim,
05:31.7
05:35.9
which is the consonant that is found in the final position of the syllable.
05:36.3
05:38.9
Then, its sound becomes 't'.

Don't worry, we will talk a lot about the batchim later.

It's natural,
20:24.6
20:28.6
if you find it a bit confusing when it comes to distinguishing the difference.

20:29.8
20:33.4

Finally, we are done learning and familiarizing the single vowels.
20:41.2
20:43.2
Before we talk about the double vowels,
20:43.4
20:48.0
we must do the IME or Intensive Memorization Exercises.
20:48.8
20:52.8
Each single vowel will be repeated for 60 times.
20:53.0
20:55.8
