Lesson 3 - Practically the same vowels..
I'm really annoyed because I had everything typed up in excruciating detail because I had added extra but it wiped when I posted it.. I swear this device is going down the loo next time... Anyway, you didn't come her for my rants so I'll quickly write up what I was going to teach you anyway then I'll add the rest maybe later in the week.
So what you learn next is another set of vowels: 야,여,요,유. These are pronounced exactly the same as 아,어,오 etc.. except there is a 'y' sound put in front of the sound, represented by the extra stick:
야 yah (a word often used in dramas meaning 'hey!'. Pronounced exactly as it looks.)
여 yuh (once again pronounced as it sounds, but make sure your mouth is open wider (vertically) than when you usually say it)
요 yo (This one, when it is said sounds like a short, curt 'yo' in a slight accent but when you say it think more about saying your very short and sharply, like I'm one short outburst of air)
유 yoo (like the rhyme of 'goo' or just pronounced 'yu/you' if you like. For those watching Running Man or Infinity Challenge, this is how you spell Jae Suk's last name, Yoo)
Some words with the new material:
아야 (ah yah) - ouch
우유 (euh yu) - milk
여자 (yuh jah) - woman (and I'm sure everyone knows nam jah - 남자 - is man right? But we'll leave that to later..)
요가 (yoh gah) - yoga (exactly the same as english since they didn't have they're own word for it)
Going to quickly post this before it deletes...
