Lesson 2
In 한글(Hangeul), the writing system of the Korean language, there are 10 main vowels and 14 main consonants. And then there are some “compound” vowels and consonants that you will learn later on.
In the previous lesson, you learned 1 consonant and 6 vowels. Do you remember them? If you need to review lesson 1, please feel free to do so right now. We’ll wait. But if you are ready to move on to the next step, you will learn 12 new consonants in this lesson! Twelve might sound like a lot, but the good news is that many of these consonants are actually closely & logically related to one another. Here are the consonants you will learn today. Take a quick look.
ㄱ
ㅋ
ㄲ
ㄴ
ㄷ
ㅌ
ㄸ
ㄹ
ㅁ
ㅂ

ㅃ
How are they “related”? Let’s find out in the lesson!
