Click on the "phonetic" button in the menu bar, you can look up words phonetically.
In spoken language, the /r/ sound is sometimes dropped when it is located at the front of a word. For example,
練習(련습) becomes 연습.
The checked syllables ending in the stop consonants are /p/, /t/, /k/. For example,
國家(국가) sounds /guk ga/.
The final consonant /k/ is checked, stopped abruptly. It is not pronounced. So do not pronounce like /gu+k/.
Unlike Japanese, the Korean language doesn’t distinguish long and short vowels.
The Hanja is mostly like the traditional Chinese characters. But there are few differences.
Korean: 强 敎 郞 凉 爲
Taiwan: 強 教 郎 涼 為
The vowel ㅐ sounds stronger than the loose ㅔ. But in spoken language, the difference is very subtle and interchangeable. Likewise, the ㅒ and ㅖ vowels.
e: ㅐ ㅔ
ye: ㅒ ㅖ
The consonant /ㄹ/ is either /r/ or /l/. For example, /ra/ or /la/ has the same phonetic value. They are equal to 라.
The sequence is in the Korean alphabetical order. There are more than 1800 Hanja and 2500 words in the app.
가:家, 佳, 街,...
...
하:下, 夏, 賀,...
