How to write a 'word'

So...as i wrote in the last chpater: this one is about writing a word...or a symbol!!

So you will need the basics...if you don't know anything about it just read the last chapter and come back again ;)

...but a revision is good for all too, right?

So...

The basic/ easy ones:

ㄱ= k
ㄴ= n
ㄷ= d
ㄹ=r/l
ㅁ= m
ㅂ= b
ㅅ= s
ㅇ(the ㅇ hasn't a real definition..it changes with the vowel...i'll explain next time..)
ㅈ= j
ㅎ= h

ㅣ = i
ㅏ = a
ㅓ = eo
ㅡ = eu
ㅜ = u
ㅗ = o

So...a word consists of a consonant and a vowel!!

Now i will teach the building of one...

If you want to write your name...

The example is my name jihyo.

When you look at the spelling of the consonants and the vowels...

J=ㅈ and i=ㅣ
=>지

So..the first part is completed!! Really easy right?!

So the next part:
H=ㅎ

The last time i told you that i just wrote down the basics. For now you don't have to know the spelling of ㅛ or ㅕ and so on. I will teach it step by step so don't worry ><

So the second part is as i wrote ㅎ and ㅛ
If you put them together: ㅎ+ㅛ=효

So if you put the two words together: 지 and 효 it is 지효 (jihyo)

That's it!!! Really easy right?!?!?! If you have time just try to write your name in korean (other words are ok too of course)!!
If you want you can comment it and i will check it for you ><

So...that's it!! The next chapter will be something like an exercise for writing ~

Hope you understood the chapter!! If you have a question just ask me~
