      As we mentioned in the video, it is hard for phonetically untrained native ears to consciously recognize word-initial denasalization. I just watched one of your videos, and you tend to denasalize word-initial /n/ yourself, as can be heard in the word "논리." ua-cam.com/video/a7QUXAGwl8M/v-deo.html Denasalization in Korean is now a well-known and well-established fact in academia without a doubt. We recommend you look up research articles on 비비음화 or 탈비음화, which are used as synonyms, and you will find many of them.

    Thank you for this video! I have a question. Is there any difference between the pronunciation of 물고기 ''fish" and 불고기 "barbecued beef or pork" in contemporary standard Seoul Korean if a speaker denasalizes the initial of 물고기 ? Does the minimal pair fall together, or is there still a tonal distinction between the words or some other cue?

    I refer to the old Billy Rose song “I Got A Code In My Doze” (from 1929) when I explain to fellow Korean learners why 네 sounds like [de] and they usually get it.

    That's what I'm talking about!! That's the kind of explanation we need! Why is there only one video in this channel? This is the best explanation of how to pronounce a letter in Korean on UA-cam! 💯 I wish we had a UA-cam channel about Korean pronounciation in the same format as Rachel's English pronounciation videos on www.youtube.com/@rachelsenglish! It'd be sooooo gooood! But I'll follow your spanish version, as I'm a Portuguese speaker, maybe I can learn more there.

    What a fake story you are talking here ! Dont try to make a difference of your video with incorrect information. DENASALIZATION is not popular as 2 of you are talking in Korean, really less than 1% !!

    This is so helpful. When I was first learning 한을 I was struggling with pronunciation (many romanised examples are in US English and I’m UK English so was never sure if “like o in dog” meant ‘uh’ or ‘o’). I thought transcribing into the phonetic alphabet might help and was amazed to discover there’s no official IPA for Korean (though I found an unofficial one).

      @someguy1202 5 місяців тому

      Yeah I'm linking people this video because this is legit what's going on lol. The ㅁ sounds like ㅂ because it is ㅂ lol. ㅂ is just ㅁ without nasalization and with a small amount of aspiration. Link this to anyone that's is studying Korean imo.

Nasal, ánd you are right Jin, you cannot pronounce M with nose closed by fingers. Thanks ^_^ you are so kind and you both explain so well, 감사합니다

    I love this channel. I recently started learning Korean and I'm very obsessive when it comes to pronunciation. I initially thought I could just do that: pronounce 'n' as 'd' and 'm' as 'b' at the beginning of a word, but then I ran into several channels saying what you pointed out about the tongue position (the 'wrong' version) and it never made sense to me. After hearing your explanation, I feel way more confident and I can finally move forward in my Korean learning journey. Thank you so much!

    Thank you for this, the exact tongue position was the information I was looking for and it was so helpful. Would you please consider a similar video for the exact tongue position for 리을, please as I'm never sure whether it's the blade or the tip and how far back I should place the tongue. Thank you.

    Thank you for this extremely useful video! After watching it, I've got a question: how do you distinguish between initial 네 and initial 데 or 미 and 비? Does this lead to any confusions among native speakers? Does the distinction lie in the fact that initial /d/ and /b/ are voiceless in initial position?
