 We've learned about the Korean Alphabet, it's intonation/pronuncuation, and in writing Hangul. But we haven't really learned about Korean Romanization.

Romanization is a translation of sounds of a foreign language into English for those who can't read a certain language phonetically.

For this chapter you need to re-open RRK (V) & RRK (C) because we will try to learn about Running Sounds together or combining the vowels and consonants. Take note that the resulting sound of the ending character on a syllable (Final) and the beginning character on the following syllable(initial).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rules:

When ㅅ is followed directly by ㅣ, it should be Romanized as shi. Example: 다시 (again) would be dashi. To avoid confusion of syllables, a hyphen can be used. Example: 후에 (after) would be hu-e. When ㄱ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅂ are found directly before vowel, they are Romanized as g, d, r, b. When ㄱ, ㄷ, ㄹ, ㅂ are found directly before a consonant, they should be Romanized as k, t, r, p.
