Hi y'all.
(THIS CHAPTER IS ABOUT S AND LOWKEY T)
So I've skipped a few letters. AND for the same reason I had for the previous skips as well.Italicized - done
Bold - skipped
Underlined - haven't doneA B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
So as you can see right now, I've skipped two letters since the last chapter.
Q and R.
I kinda think that y'all may understand why I didn't do Q.
Q is a very unique letter.
In Korean, we don't have a specific letter to represent that sound, but we do have a combination of letters to make up a sound.
I'll call it combo letters!
Combination letters - letters/symbols in Korean that create a certain sound/letter that is unique to a singular language.
(^^^thats gonna be in the dictionary~~)
Of course, Q isn't unique to English, because it's in Spanish as well. I'm not too sure about French, I ain't got no clue about that language.
Bonjour?
But do y'all understand what I'm saying?
This can go for the other letters that I skipped just because there wasn't a SPECIFIC letter for it.
For example, the harsh i that we use in English.
It would become 아이 (ah-ee or I) in Korean.
Understand?
Remember! All questions are welcome!
But I'm gonna move on.
I'm not too sure if I went over the R and L relationship in chapter L but I shall go over it once more!
L and R, in Korean (or any asian language for that matter), are usually gonna be the same thing.
For our korean R 's we use our tongue against the back of our front teeth, like how you would pronounce L.
For example, Lead and Read.
There's little difference between the two in Korean.
With Read, you would roll your tongue just a bit.
And with Lead, you would pop your tongue from the roof of your mouth.
So try it.
See? Those examples basically just show how similar the two are.So I've basically already discussed this (refer to chapter L). Probably.
But R's letter is gonna be ㄹ.
:)
So imma stop explaining this and begin our actual chapter for today!!
So right now, when I'm writing this, it's around eleven o'clock, so if there are any typos or misspellings, please don't chop my head off.
^^i should have said that in the beginning of the chapter. Oh well.
But today! We're learning about S and lowkey T !
Or ㅅ!
S and lowkey T = ㅅ
So ㅅ is always gonna be a beginning letter or an ending letter. But when ㅅ is a beginning letter, it'll sound like your average S sound. But whenever it's an ending letter, it'll sound like a T.
삭 and 홋 are two great examples!
삭 would be sag and 홋 would be hot.
It's pretty simple. I'll usually refer ㅅ as the S letter since T already has its own letter in the korean alphabet. That's why ㅅ is lowkey T.
But there's also something that I want to show y'all that I've probably only shown y'all once.
없!OML IT'S A FOUR LETTER WORD. BUT! THAT IS NOT 'EOBT'. THE ㅅ IS SILENT.
I KNOW RIGHT!? LIKE WE HAVE NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE!But this usually doesn't happen. Well it does, but not to many words.
Y'all can experiment and stuff with the letters. That's what I did when learning how to read and write in korean. It's really helpful.
So the little saying for this letter is gonna be... umm..
(^^ive been thinking about the saying for like thirty minutes and can't think of any, so just comment and maybe it'll get into the book)
But that's all for today!!
Sorry I haven't posted in a long time, I've had a lot of things going on, it's eqt week!
gUESS WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED!!!
SO YALL REMEMBER THAT I LIVE IN THE SOUTH OF THE UNITED STATES, RIGHT?
SO THIS WEEKEND WE FINALLY GOT A WHITE CHRISTMAS!!
IT SNOWED!!IM SO HAPPY!!
but I'll be writing very soon, so expect a new chapter:)
