พจนานุกรมชีวิตในเกาหลี

อักษรฮันกึล

ㄱ

기역 (giyeok)

A soft g at the start of a word — halfway to k. At the end of a syllable it's a clipped k you don't release.

StrokesOne stroke: draw across to the right, then turn sharply down. In a syllable placed left of a vowel, the downstroke slants a little to the left.

Easy to confuseㅋ — ㅋ is ㄱ with an extra middle line and a strong puff of air.
