+ # Lesson 8 — Double Consonants Review & Reading Practice
28
+
29
+ ## Introduction
30
+
31
+ You now know all 19 Korean consonants (14 basic + 5 double). Before moving on to compound vowels, this lesson will consolidate your understanding of the three-consonant series system and give you practice reading words that use all consonant types.

115
+ ## Key Points
116
+
117
+ 1. **19 consonants total**: 14 basic + 5 double
118
+ 2. **Three series**: Plain (light) → Aspirated (breath) → Tense (tension)
119
+ 3. **Minimal pairs matter**: ㄱ/ㅋ/ㄲ can completely change meaning
120
+ 4. **Reading real words**: Use context to identify which consonant you are seeing

125

127
+

+ - ㄲ
131
+ - ㅂ
132
+ - ㅍ
133
+ - ㅃ
134
+
135
+ **Answer:**
136
+
137
+ - ㄱ = plain
138
+ - ㅋ = aspirated
139
+ - ㄲ = tense (double)
140
+ - ㅂ = plain
141
+ - ㅍ = aspirated
142
+ - ㅃ = tense (double)
143
+
144
+ **Explanation:** Visual pattern: single symbol = plain, extra stroke = aspirated, doubled symbol = tense. This three-way system is fundamental to Korean pronunciation.

157
+
158

159
+ - 비빔밥 = bi-bim-bap
160
+ - 떡볶이 = tteok-bo-kki
161
+
162
+ **Explanation:** 떡볶이 uses the double consonant ㄸ (tt) at the start of 떡 and ㄲ (kk) in 볶이. Recognizing these is key to correct pronunciation.

+ # Lesson 9 — Compound Vowels I (ㅐ, ㅒ, ㅔ, ㅖ, ㅘ, ㅙ)
28
+
29
+ ## Introduction
30
+
31
+ Korean has 11 compound vowels (이중모음, ijeung-moeum) — vowels formed by combining two basic vowels. These vowels appear in many common Korean words and must be learned to read Korean fluently.
32
+
33
+ In modern spoken Korean, some of these distinctions have merged in pronunciation, but they remain distinct in spelling.

+
53
+ ## How Compound Vowels Are Formed
54
+
55
+ Each compound vowel combines two basic vowels:
56
+
57
+ | Compound | Components | Notes |
58
+ |----------|-----------|-------|
59
+ | ㅐ | ㅏ + ㅣ | Originally a diphthong, now often /ɛ/ |
60
+ | ㅒ | ㅑ + ㅣ | "y" + ㅐ |
61
+ | ㅔ | ㅓ + ㅣ | Historically eo+i, now /e/ |
62
+ | ㅖ | ㅕ + ㅣ | "y" + ㅔ |
63
+ | ㅘ | ㅗ + ㅏ | o+a = "wa" |
64
+ | ㅙ | ㅗ + ㅐ | o+ae = "wae" |
65
+
66
+ ## Pronunciation Guide
67
+
68
+ | Vowel | Romanization | Sound | English Approximation |
69
+ |-------|-------------|-------|----------------------|
70
+ | ㅐ | ae | /ɛ/ | "e" in "bed" |
71
+ | ㅒ | yae | /jɛ/ | "ye" in "yes" + "bed" |
72
+ | ㅔ | e | /e/ | "e" in "bed" (often same as ㅐ in modern speech) |
73
+ | ㅖ | ye | /je/ | "ye" in "yes" |
74
+ | ㅘ | wa | /wa/ | "wa" in "water" |
75
+ | ㅙ | wae | /wɛ/ | "we" in "wet" |
76
+
77
+ **Important note:** In modern Korean, ㅐ and ㅔ are often pronounced identically (both /e/). Native speakers rely on spelling rather than sound to distinguish them. Similarly, ㅒ and ㅖ merge for many speakers.
78
+
79
+ ## Syllable Examples
80
+
81
+ | Syllable | Pronunciation | Meaning |
82
+ |----------|---------------|---------|
83
+ | 애 | ae | baby / child |
84
+ | 에 | e | in / at (particle) |
85
+ | 왜 | wae | why |
86
+ | 와 | wa | wow / come (imperative) |
87
+ | 예 | ye | yes (formal) |
88
+
89
+ ## Common Words
90
+
91
+ | Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
92
+ |--------|-------------|---------|
93
+ | 왜요? | wae-yo? | Why? |
94
+ | 와! | wa! | Wow! |
95
+ | 예쁘다 | ye-ppeu-da | pretty |
96
+ | 애기 | ae-gi | baby (informal) |
97
+ | 과일 | gwa-il | fruit |
98
+ | 외국 | oe-guk | foreign country |
99
+
100
+ ## Key Points
101
+
102
+ 1. **ㅐ and ㅔ often sound identical**: In modern Korean, both are usually /e/ — spelling matters more than sound
103
+ 2. **ㅘ = o + a = wa**: The "w" sound comes from the ㅗ component
104
+ 3. **ㅒ and ㅖ are rare**: You will encounter them, but less frequently than ㅐ and ㅔ
105
+ 4. **"y" variants follow the pattern**: ㅒ, ㅖ add a "y" sound before ㅐ, ㅔ
106
+
107
+ ## Practice Recognition
108
+
109
+ :::exercise{id="ko-alph-09-recognition" type="matching" title="Match Compound Vowels" skill="character-recognition" tests="ae,yae,e,ye,wa,wae" objectiveId="obj-ko-alph-09-recognize"}
110
+
111
+ **Question:** Match each compound vowel to its romanization
112
+
113
+ - ㅐ
114
+ - ㅒ
115
+ - ㅔ
116
+ - ㅖ
117
+ - ㅘ
118
+ - ㅙ
119
+
120
+ **Answer:**
121
+
122
+ - ㅐ = ae
123
+ - ㅒ = yae
124
+ - ㅔ = e
125
+ - ㅖ = ye
126
+ - ㅘ = wa
127
+ - ㅙ = wae
128
+
129
+ **Explanation:** The shape of each compound vowel visually combines the two basic vowels it represents. For example, ㅘ = ㅗ + ㅏ — you can see both shapes merged into one character.

134
+
135
+ **Question:** What sound does each vowel make?
136
+
137
+ - ㅐ sounds like ___
138
+ - ㅔ sounds like ___
139
+ - ㅘ sounds like ___
140
+ - ㅙ sounds like ___
141
+
142
+ **Answer:**
143
+
144
+ - ㅐ = /ɛ/ — "e" in "bed"
145
+ - ㅔ = /e/ — "e" in "bed" (often same as ㅐ today)
146
+ - ㅘ = /wa/ — "wa" in "water"
147
+ - ㅙ = /wɛ/ — "we" in "wet"
148
+
149
+ **Explanation:** The key practical point: ㅐ and ㅔ are spelled differently but sound nearly identical in modern Korean. When writing, you must remember which spelling a word uses.

49
+ ## How These Are Formed
50
+
51
+ | Compound | Components | Notes |
52
+ |----------|-----------|-------|
53
+ | ㅚ | ㅗ + ㅣ | Historically "oi" but now usually /we/ |
54
+ | ㅝ | ㅜ + ㅓ | u+eo = "wo" |
55
+ | ㅞ | ㅜ + ㅔ | u+e = "we" |
56
+ | ㅟ | ㅜ + ㅣ | u+i = "wi" |
57
+ | ㅢ | ㅡ + ㅣ | eu+i = "ui" — unique pronunciation rules |
58
+
59
+ ## Pronunciation Guide
60
+
61
+ | Vowel | Romanization | Sound | Notes |
62
+ |-------|-------------|-------|-------|
63
+ | ㅚ | oe | /we/ | In modern Korean, sounds like "we" |
64
+ | ㅝ | wo | /wʌ/ | "wo" — between "wo" and "wuh" |
65
+ | ㅞ | we | /we/ | Like "we" in "well" |
66
+ | ㅟ | wi | /wi/ | Like "we" in "week" |
67
+ | ㅢ | ui | /ɰi/ | Special rules — see below |
68
+
69
+ ## Special Case: ㅢ (ui)
70
+
71
+ ㅢ has context-dependent pronunciation:
72
+
73
+ | Position | Pronunciation | Example |
74
+ |----------|---------------|---------|
75
+ | Word-initial syllable | /ɰi/ (eu+i glide) | 의사 (doctor) → /ɰisa/ |
76
+ | After a consonant (non-initial) | /i/ | 회의 (meeting) → /hweji/ |
77
+ | Possessive particle 의 | /e/ | 나의 (my) → /nae/ |
78
+
79
+ This is one of the most complex vowel rules in Korean, but it is important because 의 is a very common particle.
80
+
81
+ ## Merging in Modern Speech
82
+
83
+ In modern Korean, several compound vowels have merged:
84
+
85
+ | Vowels | Modern pronunciation | Kept distinct by |
86
+ |--------|---------------------|------------------|
87
+ | ㅐ / ㅔ | Both /e/ | Spelling only |
88
+ | ㅒ / ㅖ | Both /je/ | Spelling only |
89
+ | ㅘ / ㅙ / ㅚ / ㅞ | Some merge to /we/ | Context/spelling |
90
+
91
+ ## Common Words
92
+
93
+ | Korean | Romanization | Meaning |
94
+ |--------|-------------|---------|
95
+ | 외국어 | oe-gug-eo | foreign language |
96
+ | 원 | won | won (Korean currency) |
97
+ | 위 | wi | above / stomach |
98
+ | 의사 | ui-sa | doctor |
99
+ | 뭐 | mwo | what (casual) |
100
+ | 웨이터 | we-i-teo | waiter |

103
+
104
+ ### 10 Basic Vowels
105
+
106
+ | ㅏ (a) | ㅑ (ya) | ㅓ (eo) | ㅕ (yeo) | ㅗ (o) |
107
+ |--------|---------|---------|---------|--------|
108
+ | ㅛ (yo) | ㅜ (u) | ㅠ (yu) | ㅡ (eu) | ㅣ (i) |
109
+
110
+ ### 11 Compound Vowels
111
+
112
+ | ㅐ (ae) | ㅒ (yae) | ㅔ (e) | ㅖ (ye) |
113
+ |---------|---------|-------|--------|
114
+ | ㅘ (wa) | ㅙ (wae) | ㅚ (oe) | ㅝ (wo) |
115
+ | ㅞ (we) | ㅟ (wi) | ㅢ (ui) | |
116
+
117
+ ## Key Points
118
+
119
+ 1. **ㅢ has three pronunciations**: /ɰi/ word-initial, /i/ after consonant, /e/ as possessive particle
120
+ 2. **ㅚ, ㅞ often merge**: Both may sound like "we" in modern Korean
121
+ 3. **ㅝ is common**: Appears in 뭐 (mwo/what) and 원 (won/currency)
122
+ 4. **21 vowels complete**: You now know the full Korean vowel system

+
124
+ ## Final Review Exercise
125
+
126
+ :::exercise{id="ko-alph-10-recognize" type="matching" title="Match Final Compound Vowels" skill="character-recognition" tests="oe,wo,we,wi,ui" objectiveId="obj-ko-alph-10-recognize"}
127
+
128
+ **Question:** Match each compound vowel to its romanization
129
+
130
+ - ㅚ
131
+ - ㅝ
132
+ - ㅞ
133
+ - ㅟ
134
+ - ㅢ
135
+
136
+ **Answer:**
137
+
138
+ - ㅚ = oe
139
+ - ㅝ = wo
140
+ - ㅞ = we
141
+ - ㅟ = wi
142
+ - ㅢ = ui
143
+
144
+ **Explanation:** These five vowels all begin with a "w" or "u" glide (coming from the ㅗ or ㅜ component), except ㅢ which has the unique /ɰi/ glide. Recognizing their visual structure helps: ㅘ ㅙ ㅚ start with ㅗ; ㅝ ㅞ ㅟ start with ㅜ; ㅢ uses ㅡ.

149
+
150
+ **Question:** Which pairs of compound vowels are often pronounced identically in modern Korean?
151
+
152
+ **Answer:**
153
+
154
+ - ㅐ and ㅔ — both pronounced /e/
155
+ - ㅒ and ㅖ — both pronounced /je/
156
+ - ㅙ, ㅚ, and ㅞ — often all /we/
157
+
158
+ **Explanation:** Modern Korean has undergone vowel mergers. While the original distinctions are preserved in spelling, native speakers rely on context and vocabulary knowledge rather than sound alone to distinguish many compound vowels. This is why learning the spelling of individual words matters as much as learning the sounds.
