How Hangeul Works

Hangeul is the Korean alphabet, invented in 1443. Unlike the Roman alphabet, Korean letters are grouped into syllable blocks.

Each syllable block has:

  • An initial consonant (초성)
  • A vowel (중성)
  • An optional final consonant (받침/종성)

Example: 한 = ㅎ(h) + ㅏ(a) + ㄴ(n) = "han"

Basic vowels: ㅏ(a), ㅓ(eo), ㅗ(o), ㅜ(u), ㅡ(eu), ㅣ(i), ㅐ(ae), ㅔ(e)

Basic consonants: ㄱ(g/k), ㄴ(n), ㄷ(d/t), ㄹ(r/l), ㅁ(m), ㅂ(b/p), ㅅ(s), ㅇ(silent/ng), ㅈ(j), ㅎ(h)

The consonant ㅇ is silent at the start of a syllable but makes an "ng" sound at the end.

Hangeul can be learned to read in just a few hours — it is one of the most logical writing systems in the world!

Veelgemaakte fouten

  • 가 read as ㄱ+ㅏ separately
    가 read as ga

    Korean letters combine into syllable blocks — ㄱ+ㅏ = 가, not two separate sounds

  • 오 pronounced with ㅇ sound
    오 = just o sound

    ㅇ at the start of a syllable is completely silent — 오 is just the vowel o

  • 어 pronounced as 오
    어 = eo (open e)

    ㅓ (eo) is a different vowel from ㅗ (o) — eo is an open central vowel

  • 말 ending pronounced as r
    말 ends with l sound

    ㄹ sounds like r between vowels but like l at the end of a syllable

  • Writing ㅎ and ㅏ as separate characters
    Combine into 하

    In Korean, consonant + vowel always form a single syllable block
