In Korean, speech sounds are graphically represented by letters. The individual consonant and vowel letters of Hangul are combined into syllable blocks to spell Korean words and sentences. For example, the consonant sound h is represented by the Hangul letter ㅎ, the vowel sound a by the letter ㅏ, and the consonant n by the letter ㄴ – these letters are combined as a syllable block to form han = 한 which means “one” or “great” in Korean.
There are MANY wonderful sites out there to help teach Hangul letters, so instead of trying to better the best, I thought I would simply combine them here. First off I’ll put in some youtube videos, and then some interactive learning sites.
